Bio:

Hi. I'm Melissa. 21 years young. Third generation TP fan. Grandma got Mom hooked (on Jarod mostly) and Mom got me hooked (yeah, on Jarod mostly).


Michael T. Weiss is basically Dean Martin, all four Beatles, and my K pop favs in one super nice package!! If you know... you know. You know?


Michael is all that! When he shows up on Burn Notice or something we all lose our minds! It's so much screaming and the neighbors have complained lol!


We're super nuts for him!! I totally said that I wanted to marry him when I was like six. It's on video, me saying I'm going to marry Michael.. like really? I was so serious! Super nuts!


Grandma, Mom, and me have Pretender weekends!! We make Pretender themed food and even made a fondant Jarod cake head once (he was delish!) and we eat and watch some episodes. 


We even dress up like the characters sometimes!!!


That's me and my crazy fangirl tribe!!


I will be contributing some stories I hope.


Nice to meet ya!

The Fun House by Mirage
Rated: PG 13 starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 13]
Summary:

Sequel to Simple Pleasures. Parker is lured away from the Centre "Fun House" and soon finds herself trapped in Jarod's literal Fun House nestled away inside a cozy county fair, no it's not what you think. (Or at least I don't think it is) Mr. Parker's body is found, Lyle is arrested along the way and... blah, who cares?

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Lol. Jarod's like "she can't deny a KISS" and Parker's next breath DENIES the kiss. They are so cute and so evil and perfect together. I love this. So many fall and festival feels. We had our fair come to town during fall when I was small and this reminded me of it and was really evocative. I'm enjoying the day reading you.

Title: Chapter 4: A Good Run of Bad Luck A.K.A. Jarod's Big Deal of the Day

I AM SOBBING. SOBBING MIRAGE. This is so fast paced and so action packed and so exciting and so emotional and that ending and those peach hues!!! Her smile. Jarod catching his breath. I'm so in love with your writing and voice and styles. More than one. This seems completly different from the others and the others were all different to each other. It's like you have more than one writing voice. Each story has a unique personality so far that I've read. I just need more. Thank you for this.
I love it so much.

Title: Chapter 3: Hearts Breaking Even

"It was just a bad dream." Jarod reassured softly, caressing her arm as he spoke. Parker drew in a sharp breath and then rattled the cuffs.

"Apparently not." She remarked dryly, noticing with a fleeting flash of horror that Jarod had cuffed both her wrists to the bed.

lol! Yes!!! This is everything Mirage. Humor. Drama. Intrique. Adventure. Actions. And SEX.

You're amazing.

Uh oh, Parker's in trouble... but good trouble certainly. This is so plausible, and Jarod is going to eventually be meeting more and more cops and agents he's already worked with using other names.

Title: Chapter 3: Warmer?

No one has ever written Jarod with a whip before or any of the more detailed aspects of BDSM or the rules. I like how you are respectful to the community. I'm in that community. And it's more consensual and safe than finding a date in a religious bible camp or something. It's all about consent and some of the newbie vanillas do think it's sex and they do think it's bad and they do think it's consenting to nonconsent, to blurring lines and shades of gray just like you explained so you nailed that. Jarod explained that well. Oh, Michael would be a beautiful DOM. Sorry. I just needed to get it out there one time. I love this story. It's so well done, researched. You must know someone in the community or be in the community??

Title: Chapter 2: Ties That Bind

On second thought I'm probably old enough to be your mommy so I retract that from the chapter one review. My bad.

This is so plausible. Not only could I see Jarod doing this and pulling it off perfectly I could see Michael in a role like this pulling it off perfectly. Do you ever think about that? He is so hot.

 

"better think of some way to warm you up" Oh dear all of the goddesses. Jarod, Jarod. You write him too well. You're not Jarod are you?

Title: Chapter 1: Shades of J

Ooh, Mommy, write more and write it harder! Yes!!!!!

Fun fact. Did you know that Jami is the name of Michael's sister in real life? You call him Jarod's player, right? Yeah, him. The actor. I know you aren't like a super fan who knows his birthday and the ear wiggling talents and you might also not know the names of his family either, and I can't believe no one has told you about it, but yeah. It doesn't mean you should change the name. I am curious and I only remember after reading and I was like.. oh. Just a heads up. If you didn't know I thought you would want to know. So now you know if you read this review.

This is hot no matter what the characters are named. It's hotter because Jarod is played by Michael. I mean.. damn. You don't get it probably or you're so used to being around gorgeous people and pretty celebrities that gorgeous and sexy are the norm for you but for me Michael is the ultimate man. I see him in everything you write. I want him big time. He is Jarod and you write Jarod better than anyone. HOT. I'm going to need multiple cold showers.

Ohhh I'm realizing that the Queen of Darkness Mirage is also Queen of the HOT. You are a versatile one. You don't write smut, really. It's classy not trashy, it's anatomically correct, no slang, It's dirty without being gross  You say exactly what is going on so that we know because sometimes authors will be like "down there" and I'm like, "Florida? Australia? Toes? The floor? Where down there?" I want to know where the tongue is, so thank you. I'm gotta get a shower. I gotta grab the machine in the drawer first but then a shower. HOT.

Girl! OMG! I read all three chapters and I want more!! I love Jarod so much and you write him so exactly like him and you do it with all of the characters. But he's my favorite so I don't really care how well the others are written lol. The other characters don't interest me. Miss Parker is such a bitch.. and even her name.. Miss? WTF? Who is she kidding? She's not a queen.. and she only acts tough. Like a dog who snarls and barks and then when you keep getting closer it just pees on itself and starts whimpering... because it's really so scared. I hate her. I'm only interested in Jarod! It's like he's here while I'm reading!! Put more on here!!

Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5

Impressive as always! I've always wanted to see Jarod back In the Centre while Parker is there, assuming she isn't leaving? She is such a bitch and I can't stand her but I want to see Jarid tormenting her for real in the place where she put him, and I understand that Lyke is probably the only reason Jarod is back. Parker never had the brass to capture Jarod

 She is ALL talk on the TV series and always has been.

I hope Jarod pays Parker back for the shit she has put him through.

More please stat!

Yes, GOD please let their brains shut up. Their bodies have got this. I know that Broots is at stake and that's the only reason I didn't get upset when Parker became aware and slammed on the brakes. It was really subtle. The comedy is golden my dear. That last line slamming it all home. Ta! Happy hols to you sweet girl. Please don't ever stop writing.

You really have a feel for the pulse of the tv series and the characters. I'm blown away as always by you. Thank you for breathing fresh new life into this old old tv series.

Happy dancing in my chair right now young lady!

What I love most about reading you is it's the perfect transition from IOTH or any of the seasons. I watch IOTH about once a week and then click any of your stories and it's a perfect flow. 

You really know the characters and you know where to put them and obviously spend a lot of time plotting and figuring it all out.

You're brilliant.
more please?
