So the characters Eden Shortsleeve and Ryder McNamara met online. Ryder is an ultra rich Hollywood 1.5 Stars
Sadly, this book was a disappointment. :((
So the characters Eden Shortsleeve and Ryder McNamara met online. Ryder is an ultra rich Hollywood mogul who happened to visit a porn site one night out of curiosity. That's when he met Eden, a cam girl who does this job for a living to support her brother. At first their interactions were just playful and they talked like friends but it all became a little serious after they realized that they connected in so many ways. Their story progressed when Ryder went to Eden's hometown, Utah, and got to know her more.
The thing that quite frustrated me here was the poor character development of Eden. She has a valid reason as of why she is doing her job as cam girl, but I don't understand how she could not find a much better job, something that makes her comfortable. It's not like she doesn't have a choice. She has all the capabilities to find a rewarding job that doesn't involve showing her t*ts and a**. I mean, if she's happy doing that, then maybe that's okay but then at the end of the book, she felt embarrassed when she encountered a guy and thought that he recognized her from the site.
Ryder also frustrated me. He is jealous when Eden talks to male strangers online but he was not firm enough to advise Eden to stop and look for another job.
Both characters are not strong enough in this book. I found them too dependent on each other. At some point also I found things that are unrealistic, especially the romance. The things that Ryder did in the last parts of the book were also just... unbelievable.
