Blurb: In this follow-up to "Only Words," author Acer Adamson gives us another glimpse at the complicated lives of Detective Maxwell Fielding and his beautiful cross-dressing lover, Skyler Trent. The police department is honoring Max for performing above and beyond the call of duty, and Max has asked Skyler to accompany him to the awards banquet—a huge step for both of them. Nervous about how the unconventional manner in which Skyler dresses will be received by a hotel ballroom full of cops, the press, and the city's highest elected officials, Max is in for a bigger surprise than he bargained for, and Skyler doesn’t disappoint.

Excerpt:
The quivering lip stilled and Skyler smiled, his expression now warm and genuine. Just another of Skyler's many mysteries-the speed with which his fleeting annoyance always dissipated even when Max knew it was rightly deserved.
Skyler stood and stepped away from the table, offering his uninjured hand to Max. "I think I´d like you in the bedroom right now," said Skyler in that purring tone that always went straight to Max´s dick.
When they got to the bedroom, Max toed off his sneakers and socks, leaving them in a trail behind him as he walked Skyler toward the bed. His fingers went to work on the sash of Skyler's robe. It wasn't tied tightly like it normally would be, no doubt because of Skyler's injury. The knot pulled out easily, peacock blue satin parting slightly then falling closed again. He only got a brief glimpse of Skyler's skin, but damn.
Skyler sat down slowly on the edge of the bed and looked up at Max, the robe parting again. Even though all Max could see was a narrow strip of Skyler's chest, it was enough to send all the blood remaining in his brain rushing toward its inevitable southern destination. Max swallowed, and suddenly the crotch area of his jeans seemed ridiculously tight. Skyler touched him there and Max gasped.
"Wh-what about your hand?"
Skyler gave Max´s bulge a little squeeze and smiled pleasantly up at him. "I don´t need both hands to do this." A fingertip dragged down the rapidly hardening length of Max´s erection under the denim. Max shivered and it made his dick twitch. Skyler made a pleased little noise and gave a squeeze.
"Oh, God," Max moaned, afraid-and not for the first time since he´d been with Skyler-that he might blow his load right there in his pants. Jesus, Skyler knew just what Max´s hot buttons were, and when and how to press them. "You´ll mess up your n-nail polish."
"You can polish them again later," Skyler said, and using the fingers of his uninjured hand, undid the top button of Max´s jeans.
Max felt his belly tighten up in knots, his balls trying to climb inside his body.
Skyler took his hand away, and with a shrug of his shoulders lost the robe. It slid off and puddled around that fine, fine ass, exposing him fully. Like Max, Skyler was already hard, that gorgeous, slender cock jutting up.
Max tried to think of unpleasant things to keep from embarrassing himself. He looked down and saw a dark blue wet spot fanning out on the front of his jeans. Served him right for going commando.
"My goodness," Skyler said, licking his lips. "I suppose I had better not waste any time." He took the zipper tab between the thumb and forefinger of his uninjured hand, and lowered it slowly.
