Code Violation: Pink: A Tinsel Town Valentine (Hearts & Hazards #2)
Marc Fist
Felix Stone does not make mistakes.
He doesn’t miss details. He doesn’t overlook violations. He doesn’t get distracted by local festival coordinators in tinsel scarves who smile like trouble and talk like a man who’s never met a boundary he didn’t immediately decorate.
So naturally, the first thing Felix does in Tinsel Town is cite Hugh Everhart’s entire Valentine’s installation like it personally offended him.
The second thing he does is keep coming back.
Because Hugh isn’t just chaos.
He’s competent chaos. He knows every vendor, every electrical run, every structural anchor in the square. He cares about this town like it’s a living thing. And Felix can’t stop noticing the way Hugh fights for it. The way he builds beauty out of nothing. The way he looks at Felix like the rules are negotiable… but Felix is not.
Felix is here to enforce the code.
Hugh is here to keep the festival alive.
And neither of them is prepared for what happens when the inspections turn into late nights, the arguments turn into something sharp and personal, and Felix realizes the most dangerous violation in this town isn’t the wiring.
It’s the fact that Hugh Everhart is starting to feel like home.
Code Violation Pink is a high-heat MM small-town romance full of grumpy/sunshine tension, workplace rivals, forced proximity, competence kink, and the slow, inevitable collapse of a man who’s spent his whole life believing love is unsafe.
