Ambitious freelance journalist Avery Clark heads back to Chicago for Christmas with her mom and new stepdad, expecting a quiet holiday breather before her next big assignment. Instead, she picks up a heartwarming profile of Darlene Donnelly, a cherished Chicago Bears superfan on the verge of a major milestone: her 500th game. The only problem?

That’s where Darlene’s handsome grandson Matt comes in—a Chicago firefighter and devoted Bears fan who, after some gentle encouragement from Darlene, agrees to introduce Avery to the passion and pride of Bears Nation.
