Structural Tinsel: A Tinsel Town Valentine (Hearts & Hazards #4)
Marc Fist
Budget cuts. Volunteer incompetence. A snow machine that tried to achieve sentience. A mayor who thinks “permits” are optional suggestions.
He did not expect to survive Felix Stone.
Because now the inspector isn’t just a threat.
He’s a presence.
He’s everywhere Hugh in the square, in the vendor meetings, in the late-night walk-throughs where Felix’s gray eyes track every extension cord like it’s personally insulting him.
And worse?
Felix is starting to look at Hugh like Hugh is the problem he can’t solve.
The festival is days away. The exemptions are fragile. The town council is circling.
And Felix, with his perfect record and his perfect suit and his terrifying ability to stay calm under pressure, keeps doing something Hugh can’t prepare
He keeps stepping closer.
Every time Hugh pushes, Felix holds.
Every time Felix tries to retreat behind the code, Hugh drags him back into the real world.
Until one night, with the square half-built and the air sharp with winter, Hugh realizes the most dangerous thing in this town isn’t the wiring.
It’s the fact that Felix Stone is starting to want him back.
And Hugh has no idea what to do with a man who’s built like a wall… until the wall starts to crack.
STRUCTURAL TINSEL is a high-heat MM small-town romance full of grumpy/sunshine tension, forced proximity, escalating obsession, competence kink, and the sweet, brutal pleasure of watching a control freak lose control.
