Holy cheez-its!
Ohio is back to chilly, where-did-spring-go weather again. We haven't even hit
fifty degrees for the day. LOL
But, the brisk
temperature makes for great television viewing. This week didn't turn out too
badly either.
Gotham's episode
moved the story along and I'm excited to see what this week holds.
The Flash had a
great showing. I loved all the interactions with the characters. Quite a
complicated mix but somehow the relationships all work. Agents of SHIELD ended
a character I've grown fond of, but I thoroughly enjoyed the inside movie
references and how they tied into the small screen story.
Arrow pulled off a
great episode, at least the part I saw. I had an unavoidable meeting on
Wednesday and haven't had a moment to really catch up on the beginning yet.
Legends of
Tomorrow. Wow. I hope the whole time travel thing lets the sacrificed character
return. If not, I'm going to be very disappointed. Truly great stuff, though.
And Orphan Black continues to blow my mind each and every week. I LOVE this
show.
All caught up on
Banshee and Wynonna Earp, with the exception of this week's episodes. That will
be rectified later today. Caught the trailer for season three of The Last Ship
and I'm now eagerly awaiting June so I can dive back into this one.
And that's it for
television this week.
Tonight's post is
from All Tied Up, a sexy short that will be a free download in the near future.
This one features Max and Maggie from the Top Dog Pilots series.
Here's the
mini-blurb:
Maggie Harper has the man she wants and a job she loves. But
sometimes she has to pull out all the stops to keep life interesting. And that
means Max Cutter better be ready for whatever Maggie comes up with next.
And a sneaky peek…
Max Cutter handed his post-flight
checklist to the deck chief. "We all square?" He got the all clear
and crossed the hangar, headed to his quarters.
Hopefully Maggie would be there and
not in a conference with their CO, Drake Essex, going over the new parameters
on the grid mapping. Their schedules were all over the star chart and finding
time to be together, much less say hello to each other, proved a challenge.
Coming off a training run with a
new pilot, Cutter didn't bother hitting the shower. The rookie did the hard
work, flying the intricate route solo while Cutter observed and offered
support. The practice trial took about three hours, not bad for a beginner. Cutter
could make it through the grid in under two hours, but he'd flown the route
more times than anyone, with the exception of Maggie.
A far cry from the hours upon
hours of the initial mapping mission. The one where he lost his wingman and
Maggie came out as the replacement. Each played a large role in mapping the
huge belt of space rock and now they acted as guides for new recruits. And
they'd found something of a sweet spot while living and working together.
Not always an easy thing, but
Cutter wouldn't complain. Once they got through his turmoil over losing his
wingman, Ray, with a little help from Maggie's swift kick to Cutter's ass, each
got their head around the idea. Truth told, he and Maggie figured they were
headed in that direction anyway, just hadn't made a hard and fast decision to
move in together.
Which, in all honesty, pretty
much defined their weird brand of normal.
Heading up a deck, Cutter picked
up his pace. He couldn’t wait to kick back and relax with Maggie. He undogged
the hatch and pushed it open, stepping inside to find Maggie stowing her shower
kit in her duty locker.
She turned toward him and a slow
smile spread across her face. "Well, hello, hot stuff. I've been expecting
you." Her finger crooked, beckoning him to come greet her properly.
She didn't have to ask twice. He
crossed the floor in three easy strides and met her mouth in a steamy kiss.
Geez, she rocked his world every time their lips touched. His hands cupped her
face, the lip-lock sliding into off the charts territory.
Maggie finally eased back, her
palms smoothing down the front of his flight suit. "Let's get you out of
this, okay?" Her fingers worked the zipper down and spread the material
aside.
Cutter started to shrug out of
the suit, but caught the flash of Maggie's wicked grin. Shit. He had maybe
three seconds to prepare for whatever she had planned.
Or not.
Don't let Cutter fool
you. He loves Maggie's inventive mind. J
That's it for this
week. Catch everyone on the flipside.
