Well, the first
week of December is in the books, and it ended up being super busy for me. I
had a follow-up appointment with my primary care doctor, and we went over the
results from the colonoscopy. While everything looks okay, I have to go back
for another scan in six months. Um … yay? Bleh. I also have several moles we're
going to remove in January and my blood pressure is still a little high so I'm
starting meds for that. All in all, a productive appointment.
I'm not juggling as
many work projects, but I have a tricky copyedit that I need to do some research
on and a proofread that's due next week. I also have reading to do for the
developmental edit of the memoir. I also have two more projects waiting in the
wings. I like the idea of having a strong end to the year.
I did not get much viewed
this week. I've been in a bit of a slump and just needed a break. I did do some
binge watching of Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, My Life Is Murder,
and I got a bit more the of Foyle's War episode watched.
Other than that, I
had adulting to do like check insurance coverage for the procedures I need to
have and paying bills. I hate how much time that stuff eats up.
That's it for the
life update this week. Tonight's post is from Banter and Brawling and Sex,
Oh My!, a sexy little short bonus scene in the Top Dog Pilots 'verse.
Here's the
miniblurb:
Max Cutter always goes along for the ride with Maggie
Harper. He pretty much has to … she always gets into the most interesting
situations and someone has to cover her ass.
And a sneaky peek…
Maggie never failed to catch him
off guard. His hands sought her ass, cupping the rounded globes. She pulled
away for a brief moment. "I want you." Her mouth latched back onto
his skin.
"Again? Here?" He mumbled
the words against her mouth.
Maggie eased away. "You're
complaining?" Her teeth grazed the column of his neck.
Cutter snorted. "Hell, no. You
just pick the craziest locations for sex, Mags." He worked his fingers
under her shirt.
The guy they'd saved came into the
space. "Um, wanted to say thanks for having my back in there." He
glanced over his shoulder. "Security should be out of the way in the next
ten minutes. Er … if you were trying to stay out of their way." His feet
shuffled and he sent them an embarrassed smile.
Maggie paused in her assault on
Cutter's neck. "No problem." She waved him off. "We didn't like
your odds." She went back to nuzzling Max.
Cutter sent the guy a raised
eyebrow.
He ducked his head and scurried
back. "Uh, yeah. Leaving now." He turned toward the door.
"Thanks again."
Maggie waited for the steel slab to
close before she chuckled. "Good thing he didn't get here five minutes
later." Her hand palmed the hard ridge behind his fatigues.
Cutter nudged Maggie further into
the corridor behind some crates. He edged her shirt upward again and trailed
kisses along the exposed skin. No time to get naked. They only had fifteen
minutes to report to their transport—thirty if they wanted to cut it really
close.
He popped the button of her
fatigues. "Gonna have to be down and dirty, Mags. We don't have a lot of
time."
She shoved the pants past her hips
and sent him a steamy look. "Not like we don't have experience." She
braced hands on the metal surface of the wall and pushed her butt out.
Cutter moaned, unfastened his
pants, and dropped them past his ass. He moved forward and grasped her hip with
one hand and guided his dick with the other. He slid deep in one thrust.
He couldn't believe they were doing
this here … but he'd never say no to her.
This series and its
bonus scenes are so much fun. I love Max and Maggie to bits. Hopefully, I'll
have the full array ready to launch on my new side project soon.
That's it for this
week. Catch everyone on the flipside.
