Sunday Snippet: Set the Record Straight

September has beensuch a weird month. Our weather is all over the place—again—and we're baking inhigh temps. Also have a drought at the moment. I mean the grass crunches when Iwalk on it right now.

I think we have ourcar issues solved. Mine is back with a new computer and we did end up with atotal loss on the CR-V. Found one to replace that and we're getting everythingin order to finalize the purchase. Here's hoping that ends our car drama for a good,long time.

Another super busywork week. Finished up a project and started a new one. I'm in a holdingpattern for two more and I may have a new client for some writing coaching.Very excited about my calendar right now!

Did not have agreat week of viewing. Too many things distracting me and needing my attention.I might have to start doing playlists instead of television shows. If I do theplaylist thing, be forewarned, I have very eclectic taste in music.

I did get an episodeof The Batman watched by starting the fourth season. This introducedSuperman to the roster, which also means Lex Luthor put in an appearance alongwith Lois and Jimmy.

Caught an episodeof Classic Rugrats. All three vignettes were new to me, which is fun. Ifeel like I must have skipped several seasons though because I don't rememberwatching or rewatching several episodes that really stand out in my memory.Might have to check to see if I did.

Also started anepisode of My Life Is Murder. This is a two-parter and looks to end thefourth season. Looking forward to finishing this one up and waiting patientlyfor a fifth season. Fingers crossed!

And that's prettymuch it for the life update this week. Tonight's post is from Set the RecordStraight, a novella that makes a couple face what they feel for each other.

Here's theminiblurb:

Keegan Brimm and Warner Misona check their feelings foreach other at the spaceport airlock and have a knock down fight before theyfinally drag out all the baggage between them to set the record straight.

And a sneaky peek…

Keegan enjoyed the surprised lookon his face. "Let's set the record straight again." She moved in,backing him up against the hatch. "From this point forward, it's not justup to me. I did the casual thing for so long because I wanted the business withWestcroft settled before pursuing anything." Her hands skimmed up alonghis chest. "But you made me see how empty and unsatisfying that was."Her fingers trailed downward to gather the hem of his shirt. "We werebuilding a good foundation to work from, but that damned notification came inand sent me reeling." She inched his shirt up while grazing her lips alonghis jawline. "I'm over it. And I want this." Leaning back,she held his gaze. "As long as it's mutual and—"His mouth claimed hers, cutting offthe rest of her statement. Oh, good and holy universe. His lips were steamygoodness. Better than she remembered.She tore her lips away from his."You can trust this, Warner. I hope you believe that." She couldn'tblame him if he didn't.He cupped her face. "I do,Keegan. I do." He snagged the back of his collar and yanked his shirt off thenhelped her with hers.Keegan loosened the button of herfatigues. "In that case … where were we?"He gathered her close. "Ithink we were about to find a comfortable spot to get naked and consummate theagreement." His lips scorched a trail along her shoulder.Keegan shoved her pants down."Ah, yes." She kicked her feet free and strode to the cushionedbench. "Will this do?"Warner shucked his pants. "Ithink it might."He moved to stand beside her, andshe nudged him down with the full intention of rocking his world with a blowjob. But he surprised her by grasping her hips and trailing kisses around hernavel. She gasped when he dipped his tongue into the indentation at the sametime he slid a finger along her folds.He moaned. "Mmm, Keegan …you're hot and wet."Keegan's head fell back. "Iget that way every time I'm around you." And sometimes even when not.His eyes slid shut. "Don'ttell me that. Now I'm going to picture you that way all the time."She laughed and eased away."I'm not going to be sorry about it." She dropped down to her knees."But I will regret not getting at least a taste of this bad boysoon." She wrapped her hand around his impressive length and lowered herhead.

This has been a funstory to write. I love to resolve misunderstandings with hot action.

 

That's it for thisweek. Catch everyone on the flipside.
