౨ৎ ─────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────── ౨ৎ Aria Vale had one rule. Never let Hollywood see you cry. It worked for a while. The magazines called her the "Ice Queen," men called her difficult, and everyone who didn't know her decided she was a bitch before she even opened her mouth. Then came Michael Jackson. Not in person. Not at first. Just his name on a tour proposal, his face on billboards, and one line on a fax that pissed her off far more than it should have: "Mr. Jackson has personally approved Miss Vale for the European leg." So Aria says yes. Not because she likes him. And definitely not because she forgives him. But if Michael Jackson thinks he can turn her into a footnote in his comeback story, he's about to learn very quickly that Aria Vale was never made to stand behind anyone. ౨ৎ ─────── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ─────── ౨ৎ 𝟏𝟗𝟗𝟐 ⋆。‧˚ʚ♡ɞ˚‧。⋆ 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐄𝐫𝐚

Book #2 of The Last Encore series Thalia Rahman had spent a year trying to accept that Michael Jackson was gone. Then, at one in the morning, he walks back into her life. Again. Apparently, Michael Jackson has a habit of coming back from the dead. His return should feel like a miracle. Instead, it opens the door to everything they still don't understand. Because Project Encore didn't end in Finland. As Thalia and the others begin piecing together what remains, they discover that Michael wasn't the only person caught in its experiments. There were other facilities. Other subjects. Other lives quietly destroyed. And one of them may be connected to Thalia more closely than she ever imagined. Before long, Thalia, Michael, Lily, Josh, and a still stressed Chris Tucker are crossing borders, chasing fragments of information, poking around places they absolutely shouldn't be, and discovering just how far Encore was willing to go. The problem? They are somehow even less prepared for this than they were the first time. Between underground facilities, missing subjects, mysterious drawings, terrible disguises, international investigations, and several questionable escape plans, their search becomes far more personal than any of them expected. Funny, emotional, mysterious, and occasionally unhinged, this story explores healing, identity, friendship, found family, and what happens when someone you already grieved somehow comes home. Because Encore didn't only leave secrets behind. It left survivors. And one of them might just be Thalia's brother.

1987. The world belongs to Michael Jackson. Sold-Out stadiums. Flashing cameras. Endless screaming and fainting fans. To everyone else, he's larger than life - untouchable, mysterious, magic in human form. But behind the fame.. behind the sequined jackets and gloves.. Michael is lonely. Desperately lonely. Late at night, when the city finally quiets down, he slips away from the spotlight searching for the one things money and fame cannot buy - a real connection, something authentic. Then he meets Rachel. She isn't dazzled by Mr. Jackson. She does not fall at his feet. In fact, she barely knows what to make of him at all. But for the first time in years, Michael feels seen - not as a global pop star icon, but as just Michael. What begins as a chance encounter under the New York City street lights quickly turns into something deeper: stolen nights, dangerous secrets, and a love neither of them ever expected. But falling for the most famous man in the world comes with a price, and the closer Rachel gets to Michael, the more impossible it becomes to separate fantasy from reality. After Midnight is a slow burning, emotional romance about fame, loneliness, freedom, and what happens when two people find each other in the quiet hours when the rest of the world is asleep.

Book #1 of The Last Encore Series. Thalia Rahman preferred history to people. Working quietly in the archives beneath a London museum was predictable, organised, and safe-exactly how she liked her life. Then one night she finds a man in the restricted storage room. A man who looks exactly like Michael Jackson. Not an impersonator. Not a conspiracy theorist. The real Michael Jackson. Alive, terrified, and with almost no memory of what happened after 2009. At first, Thalia is convinced she's losing her mind. But when strange files begin disappearing from the archives, anonymous phone calls start following her home, and evidence surfaces linking her late brother to a secret project known only as Encore, she realises something far bigger is happening. Now Thalia, Michael, her chaotic roommate Lily, an eccentric tech archivist named Josh, and an increasingly stressed Chris Tucker are thrown into a dangerous search for the truth. One involving hidden facilities, stolen records, archive break in, fake identities, and a conspiracy powerful enough to erase people completely. The problem? None of them are remotely qualified for any of this. Especially not Michael, who keeps accidentally using his real name during undercover missions. Funny, emotional, mysterious, and occasionally unhinged, this story explores grief, friendship, found family, and what it means to finally be seen as a person instead of an icon. And somewhere beneath all the chaos lies one impossible question: What if the world's most famous ghost came back after all?

Michael Jackson and Marilyn Bennett have been arguing for eight years. Nobody remembers exactly how it started anymore. Not their coworkers. Not their friends. Not even them. What began as a mutual dislike somewhere in the mid-1980s has long since evolved into something far more ridiculous: a rivalry fueled by sarcasm, stubbornness, and an almost impressive inability to mind their own business. By 1992, everyone around them has learned to expect it. If Michael has an idea, Marilyn will find a flaw in it. If Marilyn makes a decision, Michael will have an opinion about it. Every conversation becomes a debate. Every debate becomes an argument. And somehow, despite claiming they can't stand each other, they keep finding themselves in the same rooms, the same meetings, and the same corners of each other's lives. The problem is, hatred is easy. It's familiar. It's safe. What's much harder to explain is why the person who knows exactly how to get under your skin is also the first person you want to tell things to. Why their absence feels strangely noticeable. Or why, after years of rolling your eyes at someone, you suddenly start seeing them differently. Because somewhere between the rehearsals, late nights, sharp remarks, and endless disagreements, the lines begin to blur. Arguments become conversations. Conversations become understanding. And the person they've spent years pushing away slowly becomes the one they can't imagine losing. Unfortunately, admitting that would require Michael and Marilyn to do something neither of them has ever been particularly good at: Being wrong. Out of Line is a slow-burn enemies-to-lovers story set during Michael Jackson's Dangerous era, following two stubborn people as they navigate rivalry, reluctant respect, unexpected friendship, and the terrifying realization that the person they've been arguing with all along may be the person they were always meant to find.

"It causes your immune system to turn against you," I explained gently. The color terrifyingly drained from his face as he stared at his knuckles. "I have a spot," he whispered, his voice scraping like glass. "Right here." He let out a strangled noise as the stadium footage buffered. "Riley!" he shrieked, covering his burning face while peering through his fingers at his future self. "Those pants leave absolutely nothing to the imagination!" He went so unnaturally still I thought his heart had stopped beating. His charcoal-stained fingers curled into tight fists. "Fifty," he whispered, scanning the fatal summary on the glowing screen. "I am... I am gone at fifty." What if the only way to save your future was to completely abandon your past? In 1982, Michael Jackson is suffocating. Trapped behind his family's compound gates and drowning under industry pressure, the rising star just wants a life of peace and normalcy. The universe answers-violently ripping him from his timeline and dropping him onto the bedroom rug of Riley, a freelance graphic designer in the year 2025. Stranded forty-three years in the future, Michael must face a world that already knows his tragic history. But Riley fiercely refuses to let that history repeat. She offers him the anonymous, ordinary life he always craved, rebuilding his shattered confidence brick by brick and teaching him the radical concept of self-love. More importantly, she arms him with the ultimate weapon: the brutal truth. She gives him the exact names of the snakes hiding in his 1982 backyard, the upcoming betrayals, and the devastating tragedies he is destined to face. When the universe inevitably pulls him back, Michael is no longer the timid pop star terrified of his shadow. He is a king preparing to claim his throne, knowing exactly how to rewrite music history and what it takes to survive. But armed with the future, changing his fate might cost him the one person who taught him how to live.

[SLOW BURN] It is 2006. The trial is over, but Michael Jackson has locked himself in a prison of his own making. He is completely isolated, deeply guarded, and wholly disgusted by the press. He refuses to speak to anyone-until Maeve Carter. Maeve is Europe's most ruthless and respected journalist, and she doesn't care about tabloid garbage. She is flying to New York with one goal: get the interview, secure the massive bonus, and pay for her mother's life-saving cancer treatments. It was supposed to be a simple transaction. But when the doors to the penthouse lock, the King of Pop is nothing like the broken man the media painted. He is sharp, intimidating, and looking for a challenge. And Maeve is the first person in years who isn't afraid to give him one. #1 - mj #1 - kingofpop #1 - moonwalker #1 - mjj #1 - michaeljosephjackson #93 - fanfic

The year is 1979 and Michael Jackson just hit it big with his new album Off The Wall. But what happens when a random thunder storm sends him to the year 2026, behind trash cans? He's twenty-one, sporting his iconic afro, platform shoes, and a sequined vest, clutching a portable cassette player like it's a lifeline. The air smells like ozone and asphalt, and the sky above Los Angeles looks nothing like the one he left behind, skyscrapers pierce the clouds with neon lights, and strange metal carriages zoom by without horses or drivers. Panicked, disoriented, and hiding behind a row of industrial bins in an alleyway, he's discovered by twenty-year-old Lyra. With her bright braids, oversized headphones around her neck, and a smartphone glowing in her hand, Lyra is just taking out the trash when she finds a global icon from four decades in the past shaking in the dark. Convinced she's either dreaming or hallucinating, Lyra quickly realizes this isn't an elaborate prank or a very dedicated impersonator, the man is genuinely wearing clothes from a museum exhibit and speaking with a 1970s cadence. Now, she has to smuggle a twenty-one-year-old Michael Jackson into her apartment, teach him what the internet is, and figure out how to send him home before the timeline shatters completely.
