Reviews of Love My Way
Review from romance author Monique Lamont:
"... this book has changed my life and how I view my relationship with my husband. It has brought out a
level submission in me that I've never thought possible. Love My Way will stop your breath and then
make you pant, moan, cry and sigh with each new breath."
Review from romance author Gwyneth Bolton:
"I really enjoyed LOVE MY WAY! It was HOT, funny, sexy, emotional and just plain good! Congrats on
crafting such a wonderful story."
Review from romance author A.C. Arthur:
"It was: EXCELLENT!!!"
Review from romance author Roslyn Hardy Holcomb:
"Bridget Midway has an incredible gift for crafting imaginative and unique stories. Though I will probably
always prefer 'sweet' romances, she’s definitely an author I will buy again."

Reviewer: Larissa Hayes
Ms. Midway took a daring (and deep) leap into the world of BDSM and came out with an astounding,
emotionally charged novel that I couldn’t put down. I’ve never read a novel that crawled inside the mind
of both a dominant and a submissive to give readers a genuine look at what it feels like to whip and be
whipped. This is not a story for the faint of heart and it isn’t your parents BDSM novel. Be prepared to
read (and be aroused by) things that I never imagined. (I can’t give too much away, but it’s H-O-T!) Ms.
Midway took her time in expressing and explaining the differing emotions and thoughts that pass
through a submissive’s mind, making the entire novel all the more real. With the number of contestants
on the show in the novel, I truly hope that a few of them will get happy endings of their own in future
works.

"The book is smoothly written with spare, elegant prose that complements the flow of the story. I will say,
this book isn’t for the faint of heart. Loose Id puts a warning label on it with good reason. This isn’t
pretend BDSM with light spankings and fur handcuffs. This is the real deal with convincing glimpses into
the hearts and minds of people who find their satisfaction in such manner. If you think you can handle a
strong black woman serving a white master out of love, not subjugation, then by all means run out and
get Love My Way. It rocked my world."
Reader Ada R. Moore:
"What a great read, Bridget! It was very different and I could barely put it down. I loved it. Great job!"
Reader (I.D.) Purple Moonflower:
"I finished reading Love My Way and I loved it. I like mild BDSM and even though this was more than
mild, I was pretty comfortable with it."
Reader G.G.:
"Okay I just finished reading this book and I have to tell you, it was beyond fantastic."

Reviewer: Julie Esparza
Ms. Midway has an intriguing story with a wild cast of characters in this almost 300 page book. Ananda’s
character is determined to make it in show business. She has a fire that zings off the pages and an
intelligence that makes for interesting dialogue. She truly grows as a character as the story
progresses. Eagan’s character is a like a wounded animal. Even though he has a vast amount of
power and money, you sense his inner sadness. The romance that develops between Ananda and
Eagan can’t stop them from being drawn to one another and when they touch, they go up in flames.
Ms. Midway makes her characters face hard choices and complex situations that make the reader
squirm. The sex is hot between the two characters. Overall as an erotic romance with a BDSM theme,
Love My Way is a very good presentation. I highly suggest it to those who like BDSM erotic romances
while suggesting this as a greater starter book for someone who wants to be educated about BDSM but
also find a truly touching romance.

I want to say this was a hot story but that doesn’t seem adequate. Until Webster Dictionary comes up
with a better word, I’ll just say this was hot to the 10 power. Ms. Midway did a brilliant job with this story,
evolving deep emotion and strong characters. I can’t wait to see what she cooks up next.

LOVE MY WAY is wonderful and funny book. Just imagine a mixture of American Idol & The
Bachelorette goes BDSM. The result is hilarious fun. The relationship that develops between Eagan
and Ananda is a multi-faced one and it is very interesting to see how it develops through the story and
how they handle the problems they encounter. The chemistry between them is just perfect and the
sparks are flying. The other contestants in the reality show add a lot of fun and spice to the story.
The whole plot idea behind LOVE MY WAY is a great on and the book is one of the best that this has
read in this genre for quite awhile. This is definitely not the last book that this reviewer will read by Ms.
Midway.
This reader can highly recommend LOVE MY WAY not only for all fans of the BDSM genre, but also to
those who want to try out this genre.

Reviewer: Ariel Summer
LOVE MY WAY is still a sexy story that is told in a fresh and exciting manner. There are no gruesome
BDSM scenes depicted in this story, so readers who don’t enjoy those types of love play won’t be
turned off. Instead, most readers will agree that this is a really good story that will keep you reading
into the wee hours of the morning. If you are new to BDSM lifestyles and want to pique your interest in
a tame manner, this is definitely a book that I would recommend. Even those familiar with the lifestyle
will enjoy the sauciness of LOVE MY WAY.

Love My Way is not for the faint of heart. Bridget Midway writes what everyone fantasizes about but
won’t admit, so it says on the last page. I can believe it; this was a hot novel, lots of BDSM play,
spanking, caning, hot wax and restraints. The characters both went into the game hiding aspects of
themselves; she shows us how they grow in their emotions and as people. This was a fast read;
obedient that you are, you can’t let go ‘til the very end.

Midway creates vivid characters that live in a world of reality television much like the one we are forced
to witness now. What I especially liked about this book was Midway’s ability to intricately create
characters that could easily star in a novel of their own. Love My Way is a very intelligent erotic story
with multi-faceted characters and a plot set in one of the most realistic settings I’ve ever seen.
Definitely a keeper!

Bridget Midway...exhibits a sense of humor that had me laughing on several occasions. She has a voice
that no other writer could possibly copy. Between the laughing, the crying, the frustration and of course
the sexual tension she gave it her all in this book and I can't wait to read something else from her. She's
quickly become one of my most favorite authors. Thank you Bridget, I hope you allow BDSM Reviews to

Midway's book is a perfect blend of steamy sex and nontraditional romance. What sets it apart is the
author's ability to get inside the minds of her well-created, ethnically diverse characters. The sex is
scorching hot, and the edgy BDSM play feels real. This clever story is long but so highly entertaining
that readers may finish it in one sitting.

If you've never been acquainted with the BDSM lifestyle, pick up this book! In Love My Way, Bridget
Midway offers a tale of revenge that backfires, a woman's scorn smoldering into love and lust, and of a
man learning from past mistakes, and newly taught to open his heart again. The pages sizzle with white
hot sexual escapades, as the characters sneak from tryst to tryst in a mansion filled with cameras. It's
also a story which must sneak past lust to discover love. Love My Way is a tasty read that will warm you
up on the coldest of days!

The story is sensual, steamy and sexual. The end is intense and thought-provoking and begs the
question: what would you give up for love?
Bottom line this book gets a 5. It is a love story with pain, the loving pain of Master and submissive.
Ananda learns about herself and Eagon finds what he needs to help him maintain control in his world.
The love scenes are hot and the BDSM scenes are explained for those not into the lifestyle. Do not let
this one pass you by!

Reviewer: Holli Winters
Ms. Midway…or should I say Mistress Midway, has taken a daring and brave leap. Usually when you
read a BDSM novel you are either inside the mind of the dominant or the submissive, in Love My Way,
you are able to be inside the mind of both Eagan and Ananda.
This story is arousing both for the reader and the characters. There are things in this novel that aren’t
in your everyday BDSM read, it’s not for the faint of heart. The story is intriguing for the reader. It’s full
of feral cast of characters all wanting their shot with Eagan. The romance and sex between these two is
so hot and arousing. But it’s not all about the sex, it’s about love and respect, which is another factor
proving it’s different than most other reads. It’s a must-read for any BDSM fan and hey if you aren’t one
who reads BDSM than it’s a great book to start with! Enjoy!

Reviewer: Indy
We all have our own desires and needs, Love My Way, is a book about one man’s search for a new
submissive that will love and serve him as only the right sub can. This basic concept turns out to be
anything but, as Bridget Midway weaves her magic pen. Using humor, excitement and what looks to be
a pretty vast knowledge of the BDSM lifestyle, with the final result being a true masterpiece. The
romance between Ananda and Eagan is less than typical, as they are surrounded by masked women
also vying for Eagan’s affection. The two endure challenges, elimination ceremonies and an
overwhelming desire neither can ignore. I found myself laughing at some antics, smiling at others and
tearing up at the idea of real women going after what they want.
For these reasons—including Bridget Midway’s ability to show when it comes to true love nothing else
matters but what feels right between the two parties involved—and many, many more I Joyfully
Recommend Love My Way for my June recommended read. It was a pure pleasure to experience and
one I’m sure others will find just as enjoyable.

At times educational, this is a nice foray into BDSM for those that are curious...At times this reads like
fiction and at other times like an expose and I found this juxtaposition fascinating. This is a good sized
book and everything is very well explained and handled. You really get to know and feel for each of the
characters—which is pretty amazing given there are so many. Normally reality TV is not my thing but I
could not resist the blurb for this novel. I enjoyed the experience I had reading Love My Way—although
probably not as much as Ananda!
