Preston by David Michael

Los Angeles—The City of Angels—No star is out of reach and no dream is too big. It’s the only place in the world where you can build a Dynasty with nothing but your dick and good looks.

Preston is all that remains of the legacy built on the thrusting hips of his father. His older brothers had been Princes of Porn with the world at their feet—Until they fell in love and out of the industry.

Mitch has resigned to the idea of being single forever. He can bang who he wants, when he wants, and never has to fight over who makes breakfast the next morning. The life of a bachelor suits him just fine.

When the wedding of the century threatens their ways of life, Preston is forced to find a new balance while Mitch struggles to accept the lies he’s been telling himself.

Will they make it to “I do?” Or will the demands of their bodies destroy the last of the Dick Dynasty?

I have been dying for this installment of Dick Dynasty. Preston did not disappoint. Preston has been the most intriguing of all the Hale brothers. I couldn't wait to get his story, he deserved a happily ever after.

"...but I'll work to be better for you every day. I'll strive to be the man you deserve for as long as I need to. I can't promise I'll be good at it, but I promise you I'll try."

Preston is the last single Hale brother. He's not the relationship type. He doesn't do repeats, and if he does, there is clear understanding on what they are, a one-night stand. Preston has never thought of forever until he is forced to plan out his brother's wedding with Holly's best friend, Mitch.

Sparks fly, chemistry between them is explosive. Preston was everything this series needed.

Parker by David Michael

My name is Parker Hale and I single handedly brought down a Dynasty.

For me, life has been a study in bad decisions and worse results.

My party boy days landed me with one foot in the grave, but Rebecca Sloan pulled me back from that ledge.

She’s here for me when I need her most and all I do is disappoint.

I’m scared to lose what we have.

I need to fix this mess before it’s too late.

There are fates worse than death.

I’m gonna prove it.

Parker is the middle brother in the Hale family. He has it all. He is a popular porn star, he's a huge player, and he has a drug problem. When one night of fun lands him in rehab, he doesn't know if he's ready to be sober. He knows his family is at the end of their ropes with him. When his brother's girlfriend, Holly, can't be there to pick him up from rehab, she sends her best friend, Rebecca.

Rebecca has a huge dislike for drug addicts and makes no mistake in letting Parker know. The last thing she expects is seeing the good in him. Can two people with past issues make it work, or will they crash and burn before they even begin?

I am loving the Dick Dynasty Trilogy. It has everything that brings the feels. I laughed, I cried. Mitch is hilarious. I can't wait to see what happens between Preston and Mitch.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
I was delighted to get to review this book, as I had so loved Porter (book 1). This is quite a different story – there is still some great humour, but actually it is a really poignant story. Holly's best friend, Rebecca, finds herself drawn to Parker, Porter's dissolute younger brother. Neither of them are into relationships, but somehow the attraction is more powerful than they seem willing to control. The music sessions that bring them together as close friends are beautifully written. I also loved the set up at the end...something I did see coming, and will enjoy very much reading as soon as it is available.

Thanks for another good story, Mr. Michael.

Shannan – ☆☆☆☆
Porter, Parker and Preston Hale are brothers and some of the biggest names in the porn industry. An industry they followed their father into. When their father died, Porter, the oldest, tried to do what was right and best by his brothers. Always looking out for them, putting them first. The night he meets Holly Nash at his brother's premier party he knows there is something different about her. Can Holly get over the fact that Porter is a huge porn star? Can Porter settle down and become a one woman kind of man?

This is my second read from Mr. Michael and I loved it! There is the insta-love/like factor but it was written very well. Normally that can be a huge turn off but it fit well within the story line. Loved the porn aspect of the story and Porter's inter dialogue throughout some of his scenes. His character had me smiling on more than one occasion.

The Hale brothers, (the Dick Dynasty) were an interesting bunch. I can't wait to see more from them.


Ruthie – ☆☆☆☆
Fun, bawdy, and unexpectedly unique. I am delighted that this is the first in a series, as the writer's struck gold with this group of characters. I have made a note to look out for Parker's book which is coming next.

I loved the inside view, which made me laugh, and feel strangely sad at the prejudice they faced – but mostly I enjoyed the ride as Holly was pursued. There are many books which deal with the issue of a club dom who has to deal with how to resolve faithfulness with a partner, but not so many about porn stars. It was clever and amusing at the same time.

I didn't foresee the ending – another reason why I am waiting for the next book in the series. I do hope Mr. Michael is busy writing it for us!


Angela – ☆☆☆☆☆
I need to start off by saying that even though I have read one of Mr. Michael’s books before, I completely underestimated Porter. This is not the first book I have read in which one of the main characters is porn star. Nor is it the first I have read in which said porn star is presented as a real person rather than a caricature. Sadly it does fall in the minority for that very reason. Because of my past reading experience and the series title – and yes it means exactly that – I began Porter with the expectation of a smut-filled read about a porn star. A book I would enjoy reading, but not love. What I got was a lot of laughs, a handful of hot (not smutty) sex scenes, a serious romance, and SUSPENSE! And I loved every minute of it.

I often include personal references in my reviews to explain why I enjoy a book. Oddly enough, I actually know a couple of gay male porn actors – they do love Key West. Because of this, I found Porter’s character to feel very authentic. Like most public personalities, they have their public persona and their real personality and being “on” all the time can wear them down. So the opportunity to be themselves when faced with a person who doesn’t care about nor is interested in their public persona is a godsend. It’s because of this that I found Porter’s reaction to Holly so realistic. Not only was Holly not impressed by Porter being a porn star, she actually wanted nothing to do with him because of it. And this put Porter in the novel situation of actually having to work for it to get a woman’s attention. Unbeknownst to Porter, Holly was actually attracted to him (which made for some hilarious conversations between Holly and her BFF Becks) so he had her complete and total attention, albeit begrudgingly. With some subtle pushing, some not so subtle cajoling, and a case of phone theft, Becks insures that Holly gives Porter a chance to prove that he’s not as bad as she wants to think he is. Despite their terrible first encounter, Porter proves to Holly that he really is a nice guy who has plans for a life beyond porn. The romance that ensues is sweet as Holly and Porter learn that they have a lot of common interests. Of course, the sex is hot – he is a porn star after all – but not gratuitous, not even those scenes that occur in the course of Porter’s job. The author weaves the scenes in appropriate to the storyline.

What I was not expecting and that caught me off-guard completely was the suspense element. I so did not see that coming – the actual incident or the guilty party. Holy crap that was intense and had me on the edge of my seat as the scene played out. Mr. Michael has created a wonderful cast of characters as support systems for Holly in Becks and Mitch and for Porter in Parker and Preston – who I am assuming will be getting their own books as members of the Dick Dynasty. I thoroughly enjoyed that the story was told from both Holly and Porter’s points of views so we got to see what each thought about the other and I will warn you that Holly has a bent sense of humor (that I loved). I loved Porter and apologize to Mr. Michael for underestimating his ability to make me love a porn star. I have added Porter to my reread shelf and am looking forward to Parker’s story next – at least it better be Parker’s story next after that freaking cliffhanger!

Book 1
Coming June 11^th

Author by day, bartender by night, David Michael spends nearly all of his time working and he loves every minute of it. The passion that he has for both of his jobs runs nearly as deep as the passion he has for his family and friends.

No stranger to the day-to-day struggles of mortal existence (sigh), David found that the best way for him to cope with the burden was to escape. As a kid, he read everything he could get his hands on. From Stephen King to Nora Roberts – he devoured it all.

He began writing seriously in 2009 and since then has published five full-length novels to-date. Porter will be his sixth.

Still an avid reader, if he's not tending bar, writing, or playing RPGs, you'll probably find him outside with a book in-hand. Don't bother talking to him if you find him in this state... He won't hear a word you say.
