Bridger and Dynassy...
So this is the third book I've read by this author and even though the other two were okay. These two characters seemed to have a bit more connection to me. The writing is okay. Even though I wouldn't add him to my book boyfriend pile, it was a decent read.

This was totally not what I was expecting!! I read the blurb and saw "The Queen of Reality TV meets the Kingpin of Porn" and thought... actually I don't even know what I thought but it definitely involved some time of porno music soundtrack.
But this story was in NO WAY a porno. No smut. AT ALL!! The sex scenes were actually few and far between in relation to the rest of the book. Though the story IS about sex, it wasn't in a way that I was prepared for. And yes, I'm being intentionally vague. Let's just say that the book title plays a LARGE part in this story. Bridger had an issue until he met Dynassy. Read the book to know what I'm talking about. It's not HARD.
TOTALLY DIDN'T HAPPEN THOUGH!! SORRY FOR CONFUSING YOU!! HAHAHAHAHA!!
Ok. Ok. Dynassy is a reality TV princess and image is everything. Bridger is a former SEAL turned porno empire mogul. They're both extremely close to their families. Maybe too close at times LOL. They both have huge hearts and there is some instalove going on between them.
This story was well-written, entertaining, low on angst or drama, and a delightful introduction for me to the work of Normandie Alleman!

I didn't want to like Dynassy, I really didn't, but you can't help but like her. Bridger steals your heart from the word go. I really liked their dynamic as a couple but I would've liked to have seen more. More of a transformation in Dynassy, more of them together, more of his struggles, more in Milan. Machine is a great, light read so give it a go!
