Who’s got two thumbs and can use them to type a review on her phone about how much they enjoyed the use of Todd Packer in this fic. This girl!!!
Really enjoyed this one. I’ve still got the last chapter to read but these last two hit all the right notes. Being on my phone and not as good with my thumbs as I’d like, I am going to keep this one short but again really enjoy your fics.

Came to this one on the heels of reading Quarantine and finding this one a delight too.
Love, love, love the plot concept.
You do a great Michael, and the rest of the ensemble too. however for Jim I envision him leaning more to Adam Sandler fan Jim Carey.
This is going to be fun!
(again, hope you are seeing these)
Author's Response: Thanks! This was fun to write. So glad you liked it.

Wow, wow, wow! I loved this fic so much! Such a clever concept and amazing execution. The scene where they wake up together is so glorious, so spot on... you totally nailed the emotion there.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed this :) You are too kind.

This was a lovely ending. Steamy topped off with just the right amount of sweet. I feel for Toby, but at the same time I don’t feel for Toby because he’s so very... Toby...
Author's Response: Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed my conclusion. Poor Toby. :(

I saved this up so I could binge it at once because I knew there’d be some angst! I love the angst, don’t get me wrong, but I love it best when I can read it without stopping, haha. This was such a great and believable premise and I loved seeing how everyone bid! And GIRL the PAYOFF at the end you DELIVERED that rating! Excellent job, I really enjoyed it!
Author's Response: Wow! Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed this fic, and that the ending was satisfying for you (as well as for Jim and Pam, lol). I really appreciate this awesome review!

Wow, when Jim and Pam finally get together they just go for it. Not complaining in the slightest mind you. The scenes getting to and then back at Pam's place were great. Love to see them just fall for each other like that.
Jim's date was fun to watch. Kinda interesting that the college girl trio knew Ryan had a girlfriend and still showed up to bid on him anyway. What is the world coming to?
For Pam to show up to rescue him from the date was a stroke of genius. Especially the way she came over to the table like that. Lots of fun.
I'm actually kinda sad that Pam didn't go to dinner with Toby. If for no other reason to say thank you for making sure she didn't have to have that date with Packer. I also get why Toby backs off. It would feel a little awkward to be sure.
All in all this was a fun story. Great way to end things here with Pam and Jim just so in love with each other. Lovely way to end it.

Author's Response: Thanks so much for the indepth review. I didn't mean to imply that the college girls knew Ryan had a girlfriend beforehand. They figured it out when Kelly outbid them and gave them dirty looks. As for Toby, I think it would have been more painful for the poor guy to get his hopes up. I imagine that Pam will do something kind for him in return someday. So glad you enjoyed this story. I always appreciate your feedback.

What a great ending. Nice to see their weekend together. You are such a talented writer. When I first found MTT, you had just started writing Quarantine and I loved it. And since then I have loved the AU beach games fic you wrote and this one. I love your writing as always.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! You are too kind. So glad you enjoy my writing. You made my day :)

Honestly I like a Toby who is capable of actually verbally expressing his wish to date Pam. Kudos to him. The rest of the chapter was very good too (love the club prank) but I so rarely see good Toby on this site that I wanted to call it out again.
Author's Response: Thanks! I love Toby! Glad you enjoyed this fic. Thanks so much for reviewing.

This was such a great chapter! I love all the details of the auction. The girls winning a date with Jim is fun. But the paragraph at the end that starts with Pam saying: "This past year has been all my fault,” she began, over the slight tremble in her voice."Â That paragraph is so good. This scene with them is just perfect.
Author's Response: Thank you! So glad you are enjoying my story. And I really appreciate you letting me know the specific things you liked. The conclusion is up now. I can't wait for you to read it!

Oh Toby. You can just tell that he's trying to be more than friends with Pam. I'm sure she'll be nice, but let him down easy. Especially after that conversation with Jim. I'll get back to that in a minute.
The rest of the auction was fun to read. The different bids for everyone. Jim getting a triple date of out it. And here he is, a date with three girls all at the same time. Seemingly every man's dream, but of course his dream is much different.
Kinda figured Karen would have a break-up scene like that. When honesty strikes, it's like a dam bursting. Still it's over and done.
Then of course we have Jim and Pam's talk. Love the image of him giving her his coat. Very gentlemanly. After all this, it's great to see them talking so freely about everything. Lovely images there.
Can't wait to see how this all wraps up.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! Glad you continue to enjoy this. I've posted the conclusion; can't wait for you to check it out.

AWwww. Poor Toby, but I'm glad at least he gets a hug out of it. That wasn't how I expected the chapter to go precisely but that's what makes it fun--it was an excellent chapter. Also I wonder who the mystery woman was...
Author's Response: Yes, poor Toby. He always makes me sad. I'm glad I could take you by surprise. Thanks so much for reviewing. The conclusion is up now.

This is really fun! I love all the details, and Todd Packer was a great ingredient to add to the drama. The tension between Jim and Pam is perfect. Very sexy and angsty all at once.

Ok, si I’m your biggest fan. I was actually feeling giddy when Pam and Kelly we’re getting ready. I love that you included Packer, leaving Jim no choice but to save Pam. I cannot wait to read the next chapter.
Lots of jellybeans!!!

YES WUFPH!
Always here for some New Fancy Beesly. Her newfound confidence is one the other DM women should look out for!
I mean, if Karen can’t play the game, then why make a bet with her? Very strategic on Jim’s side to not bet on her.
Lowkey wished Jim won the date with Dwight, but we all know Dwangela needs their moment to shine.
Packer, you’re an ass lol.
And LOVE this cliffhanger! Can’t wait to see who wins!
Author's Response: Lol. I guess those on the chat the other night might be the only ones who put that fake acronym together and see that Ryan is totally defrauding everyone. Thanks so much for the lovely review, especially pointing out your favorite parts and thoughts along the way. Chapter 3 is up now :)

Great descriptions with Pam getting ready. It really set the scene well. I also loved Confident Pam flirting with Jim there. He's just standing there gobsmacked and it's adorable.
Packer's being an ass as usual. Seriously, who doesn't want to punch him in the face. I also fully get that Jim would be to distracted by all that to remember his bet with Karen.
Also good on Jim for trying to out bid Packer. Tension or not it's really good to see that there's no way Jim would let that creep get anywhere near Pam.
Which of course does set up that cliffhanger nicely. Please update this quickly. It's a really great chapter and story and I can't wait to see where it goes.
Author's Response: Thank you! And it's so great when you tell me your favorite bits. I'm so encouraged, that I already posted ch. 3. :)

Well, Jim said it himself, so no surprise there that Karen dipped. I hope Mr. Blonde can make Karen happy, because the way we're all hoping things go...
Of course Todd packer had to be there. Not gonna lie, completely forgot about him, that was just great. And Pam's comment to Phyllis asking if Bob could beat him up for her was fun. That got a chuckle.
Looking forward to seeing how this plays out!
Author's Response: Thank you! I had thought about using Roy to compete with Jim, but I thought Packer added a sleazy dynamic that was fun to write. So glad you're enjoying this so far. Ch. 3 is up now!
