Notes:
Please read :)

This will follow the storyline of Top Gun Maverick for the most part, with some obvious add in's or changes.
Of course there is a SPOILER warning for those who have not seen Top Gun Maverick.
STOP READING NOW IF YOU DO NOT WANT SPOILERS
Some noticeable differences are the ages, I wasn't entirely sure the ages of the pilots however I've decided to have them late 20's/early 30's mostly. Also when it comes to the final mission, there will be five F/A-18's instead of four, all will be explained in the story.
• This story will contain mature language and themes.
Lucille 'Thistle' will be Scottish (like myself) so the phrases she uses may be Scottish here and there.
• The love interest for this book will be Rooster, however it will be more of a slow burn than an instant romance. There will be a slight Friends, to enemies to lovers in there. Enemies is a strong word but the best way to describe it lol.
• This story will include first person and third person narrative.
• My lingo might be slightly off as I am not a fighter pilot but I will do my best :)
• Please enjoy and be kind :)
