Sunday Snippet: The Hunt

Happy holiday season to everyone! I'm ready for a busy week and a quiet Christmas. We're always pretty low-key and this year my oldest is in the middle of moving out for the first time. I'm thrilled for him but don't envy the chaos. Moving is challenging when it isn't the holiday. LOL

Didn't get much television watched this week. Have an ongoing project that's due by the beginning of January and I'm focused on getting it finished up.

I did listen to a lot of holiday tunes while working and I got sucked into a Scorpion binge marathon. Other than that, I watched the usual classic Perry Mason and The Saint.

Looking forward possibly getting to the movies I'd like to watch this week.

Tonight's post is from The Hunt, a fun romp with a twist on a scavenger hunt.

Here's the mini-blurb:

Megan and Guy, corporate retreat directors, stage a scavenger hunt for their client's team-building exercise. After a major disagreement, the couple spends most of their time making up—and trying not to get caught in compromising positions.

And a snippety peek…

"We're fifteen minutes out. I can't tell you how excited I am about this new idea." Joe gushed on the phone.

Guy's eyes widened. "Glad to hear it. We'll be ready when you get here." He hung up with Joe and glance toward Megan. "He loves the new team-building exercise idea." A relief after the tension-filled meeting two weeks ago.

Megan smirked. "Did you really doubt he wouldn't?" She got up and came around the desk to straddle his lap. "We do our best work when faced with a challenge and a goal." Her lips brushed over his.

Of course, his blood heated. Always did when she got up close and personal. Joe said they were fifteen minutes out…

Guy cupped her ass, pulling her flush with his groin. "We do, don't we?" The challenge and goal here; get hot and bothered before the Aztec group arrived.

Megan's lips curved in a sexy grin. "I know exactly what you're thinking." Her hands worked his belt loose. "And I say we push the boundary right now." Her head dipped and her mouth closed over his.

Hell, he wouldn't argue. His fingers worked the buttons of her blouse loose and he spread the garment wide. She wore a frilly bra in the palest pink today and the scalloped edges tickled his nose when he leaned in to nuzzle her cleavage.

Megan made a hum of satisfaction. "My turn." Her palms skimmed over his chest then tugged his shirt up and over his head. "Love it when you make it easy to get you undressed."

He'd gone with a pullover and twill pants today. The group decided on casual attire for their scavenger hunt-themed retreat. Megan had flared skirt and cotton blouse along with a pair of espadrilles.

He pushed her skirt up and raised his butt off the chair so she could drag his pants down. Her mouth ghosted over his skin and along his jaw. Her hand found his cock and circled it.

His lips found hers and he pushed the matching pale pink panties to one side. Megan lifted her hips ready to take him deep.

The buzz of the phone halted their progress.

Megan groaned. "Argh." She reached back and grabbed the handset. "Megan Dewes." She listened then nodded. "Yes, Anna. We'll be right there." Hanging up, she sighed. "Aztec just pulled in. Anna's not sure how the check-in is going to work with the new concept." She reluctantly slid back and stood up.

Guy straightened his clothes, gingerly tucking his still hard dick back into his pants. "We kind of expected a few snags." He got up making sure he got his shirt on straight and not inside out.

Megan buttoned her blouse, a small frown marring her features.

Guy grasped her hips and hauled her close. "Hold this thought … I want more of this later." He caught her lips in a quick, hard kiss.

Her mouth curved upward. "I'll hold you to it." Turning, she crossed the office and exited to assist Anna.

Guy relished watching her ass sway under the skirt then followed her out to greet Joe's group.

Megan and Guy have been fun to write. I love taking an established couple and throwing a challenge at them.

 

That's it for this week. Happy reading!

Sunday Snippet: The Hunt

May 4, 2014

Another nice week in TV. Arrow keeps going at a breakneck pace. I'm so excited to see how the season ends. S.H.I.E.L.D keeps me guessing a little and I like that. I'm not quite sure how I feel about Ward's situation, but I'd love to see if they can actually redeem the guy. And make me believe it. :D Orphan Black blew my mind. One… because I totally called Cal's role in Sarah's former life. I won't spoil anything here, but I had a gut feeling about him. Now I'm wondering if one of my hopes for Rachel comes to fruition. *crosses fingers* And how about the ending? Oh, man, I seriously hope that Daniel dude gets his comeuppance. Or dies. Either way would suit me. :D

Tonight's post is from the novella, The Hunt, where my couple works and plays together, but not without butting heads sometimes.

Here's the tagline:

Megan and Guy, corporate retreat directors, stage a scavenger hunt for their client's team building exercise. After a major disagreement, the couple spends most of their time making up—and trying not to get caught in compromising positions.

And a snippety peek…

Guy crossed his arms over his chest. "And I suppose it was totally necessary to flash your cleavage at the VP of Sales, right?"

Megan rolled her eyes. "I didn't flash my tits, Guy." She paused. "Not intentionally, anyway." She lifted a shoulder. "Not my fault I've got a nice rack. Blame my mother."

Guy growled. "Your mother is a sweet woman who wouldn't think to use her assets to seduce a team leader into not cancelling a retreat." He paced back and forth. "If Joe Homage doesn't want to be here, let him leave. The rest of the group will follow his lead." Guy stopped. "Do you really want to fight, tooth and nail, to keep this one on the line?"

Megan sighed. "Look, Guy, we need the cash flow this month if we want to take the winter off, right? Exchanging a few niceties can let me get to know what Joe's problem is so we can get this retreat back on track."

Guy conceded her point. "Fine. What's his problem?" He sank down on the chair behind the desk. "Aside from the roving eye?"

Megan snorted, but didn't take the bait. "He's been through twenty-five of these team building exercises in as many years." She sat on the chair facing Guy. "Basically, he's bored, tired, and knows the drill better than anyone."

Guy nodded. "But he's the VP, probably stuck and not going anywhere else, and he's the leader—"

Megan finished the statement. "So his participation is mandatory every time they shake things up and bring in new blood."

Guy's mouth thinned for several moments, then tilted upward in a smile. "Scavenger hunt." He rifled around and dragged a notebook out from under a stack of files.

Megan grinned. "Brilliant. Something out of the ordinary, where instead of finding office supplies, they have to work as a team to piece together a puzzle, maybe?"

Guy wrote out a list of interesting items and turned it toward Megan. She snagged his pen and added a few things to make the search even more motivating.

Guy's gaze dropped to read over her additions and he barked out a laugh. "Not sure that last one is even legal, Megan."

She shrugged and leaned forward, putting her ample cleavage on display. "Don't care. It'll be fun to see how they react." She grabbed Guy's tie with one hand and hauled him close. "Are we back on track?"

Guy slid a hand across the surface of the desk, working two buttons of her shirt loose, exposing the vivid floral print of her bra. "We are now." His mouth met hers and his fingers dipped under the lacy trim of the D-cup, stroking her skin.

Megan moaned and deepened the kiss, letting it catch flame and go hot.

Honestly? Megan's wicked sense of humor keeps this one fun to write. J

That's it for this week. Happy reading.
