Ahhhh! There you are. Finally. Brilliant chapter, a brilliant addition to a brilliant, action packed work of dramatic fiction. I'm always so awed, Mirage. I need more. The sooner the better please. I love that Lyle will hopefully get the help he needs and deserves. Love the wit. You capture the characters perfectly.

OMG they are so cute together that it's like the universe wants them to be together forever and why don't you? Outstanding writing Mirage. That ending is full of hope. Make it so!!

Squee it's happening! This is omg so professionally authored that it blows my mind. I love all of the dialog and the characters are perfect. Your originals are beautiful and fleshed out too. I need more.

Why are you so phenomenal and addicting? I can't get enough. More!!

Cool. Sweet story, Katecats.

Read and favorited. Mirage you are freaking amazing. No one and I mean NO ONE writes these characters and this series and the complexities as well as you. No captures the dynamics or the characters as well as you. It's like watching the dvds...only better because I know you will complete the story and it will be amazing. More please.

That last line. Mirage. You just get better and I keep wanting more and more. I love every word of this. I love the way Jarod turns it around. She left him first. He never ordered her out of his sight afterwards either. Cries! He still wants to believe her promise. I'm so devastated. Shout out to twitter readers. I'd never know you updated if they hadn't gone nutty with the tweets. Don't get too mad at them. ;) Keep updating please. I understand if life gets busy. You don't have to go fast but please don't stop.

God in triplicate lol. I love this. Oh, my God. I love that they weren't in sync completely, that Parker's anger got in the way a little and that little kind of scene of surrender when Parker just kept saying his name and all the bark went out of her voice and she was left panting. SO emotional and your erotica is always HOT. Damn. You should be writing the official novels. And until then YOU are writing my official novels. This for me is offical. I just need more. SO hot! It was perfect. The ending lol. YOURS asshole. Lol. Perfect. So very Miss Parker and Jarod was so very Jarod and sweet.

More please?

Jarod is getting no answers from her and that's what he gets for letting her think he's dead. She is hurt and I don't blame her. Discussing kindness and babies in cages right now and what the US has done... this is a conversation these two would have in our world right now and Jarod is right and how touching and plausible that Parker reached for him when he got passionate about it, probably thinking of his son and Avery and all childrren really because he is Jarod and that's what Jarod does. He feels things so deeply. So does Parker. I love this. I love you for addresssing the messed up stuff going on. Wrong is wrong no matter who does it and that includes what's going on at the border. It's wrong. It just happens the US is wrong this time. LIke Germany was wrong once upon a time. Keep writing please. MOre of this.

Bravo! I love that that song was playing. Stevie is the queen! You're keeping it real with miss Parker not quickly getting over the pain jarod caused be letting her believe he dead. just because he's alive and back doesn't mean the pain goes away or the feeling of betrayal. He hurt her and he can never undo that. I love the internal argument with Mr Parker and how she rejects him it just totally resonates with me. I love how supportive parker's family is, how much they love her. the entire interaction with Jarod trying to assess her was both accurate and hilarious and spot on.

Blown away by this. Please continue to share your enviable skills with us. Please? Thank you and congrats.

Omigod what? I can't think all that well. You really threw me for a loop here. I legit believed that Jarod and Miss Parker were having a conversation and then I knew when she suddenly didn't reply to him with no-i'm-not-like-her that something might be wrong but not that wrong. Then he looked at the coffin and omigod what have you done? Miss Parker is in her mother's coffin. Jarod killed Raines because Raines killed Miss Parker. This is so short too. I feel punched in the heart Mirage but it is so beautiful. You are too talented. Why are you so talented? The way you wrote it, one line building it up and then omigod. I am going to cry now. I feel like I left Jarod alone with a coffin and he's going crazy. What will he do now? He is in love with her or he wouldn't be losing it that way. I need more of this. She's not gone now? I know it's complete and it's beautiful but I need more.
