Entwined With You (Crossfire #3) By Sylvia Day

Title: Entwined With You
Author: Sylvia Day
Publication Date: June 2013
Publisher: Penguin


The worldwide phenomenon continues as Eva and Gideon face the demons of their pasts, and accept the consequences of their obsessive desires. . .


From the moment I first met Gideon Cross, I recognized something in him that I needed. Something I couldn't resist. I saw the dangerous and damaged soul inside --so much like my own. I was drawn to it.I needed him as surely as I needed my heart to beat.

No one knows how much he risked for me. How much i'd been threatened, or just how dark and desperate the shadows of our pasts would become.

Entwined by our secrets, we tried to defy the odds. we made our own rules and surrendered completely to the exquisite power of possession. . .



 didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it


OH...MY...FREAKING...GOD...is all I must say first! I loved it ever so much, I had pre-ordered EWY book in September 2012 and iv been mega excited and waited ever so patiently...(well tried, hehe)
So we follow on in Eva's and Gideon's life once again, although secretly dating and hiding their relationship from the public but very much in love of course..how will this third book will play out you must be thinking? But I don't want to give too much away because I feel with these books the readers must read them all on their own without reading reviews and decide what you love about the book yourself, I do know readers are going to freaking LOVE this book!


Sylvia Day certainly knows how to get her readers sucked back into the lives of Eva and Gideon, they are, I must admit the most beautiful couple ever and I was so excited and very happy about half way through the book, Yayyy :D other book fans of Crossfire series will know what I mean by now hehe!
The chapters flow so easily in this book, and before you know It you will have finished and will be wanting  more I am sure.

I really did enjoy this book so much, I was glad to be reading about Eva & Gideon again, the sex scenes in this book were out of this world once again, could turn any body on! I was so hooked in the book I had finished in hours! I neeed more already though!


Do you know what the best thing is that. . .(drum roll please) There is going to be a Book 4 & 5, Yay! The Eva&Gideon story hasn't finished altogether after all! I do urge everyone to grab a copy & must read, Especially because you get more of Mr Dark & Dangerous Mr Gideon Cross, yes we can dream I know!

Most Talked about book 2013 = HELL YEAH!!

Author Interview with Sylvia Day

I had the ever so lovely pleasure in interviewing Sylvia today especially with the publication day for her new crossfire #3 Entwined With You which I think must can agree have been waiting so long for! I know I certainly have and i have started it today on my Kindle after pre-ordering for like 9 months after reading Reflected In You. Here is what Sylvia had to say about her new coming book....


Tell us a little about what’s in store for Eva and Gideon in Entwined with You?
Eva’s in a different place in Entwined with You. At the end of Reflected in You, Gideon made a pretty large sacrifice for her. Her big issues had been insecurities, concerns about other people – and other women, particularly – in Gideon’s life. It’s hard to have those sorts of fears and self-doubt after the person you love makes a huge sacrifice for you, like Gideon did for her. So Eva’s in a much more stable place as far as her comfort level with the relationship and being able to accept the depth of Gideon’s commitment to her. Gideon, however – what he’s done, there are a lot of ramifications. Not just externally, but internally. So as Eva grows stronger, Gideon’s actually struggling with more. That said, she’s really the anchor for that relationship; she has been from the beginning. So with her being stable, it brings new strength to their love affair, and readers will see a lot more moments of calm and connection between the two than we have seen in the previous books.


When you are writing, do you use any celebrities or people you know as inspiration?
Rarely. For the most part, the characters are unique in my mind. They don’t look like anyone else.


The Crossfire novels have been hugely successful. What has been your most memorable experience as an author to date?
Every career has milestones. Over the last ten years, I’ve been blessed to have several big ones. Career-wise, the day Bared to You hit the New York Times bestseller list as a self-published book was one that meant a lot to me. Every aspect of the production was entirely under my control and that makes it very personal. Reader-wise, every time I have a meet-and-greet is a memorable experience for me. I love spending time with other readers who love the characters as much as I do.


Can you tell us a bit about your average working day?
Before I even roll out of bed, I’m checking my email via my iPhone. Since I’m in California, all of the industry professionals I work with are operating at least a few hours ahead of me, so I start every weekday trying to catch up. I’m at my computer from waking to sleeping, doing a mix of business items (interviews, Q & As, negotiations, contract fine-tuning, cover and marketing approvals, etc.) and actual writing. If I’m awake, there’s a 90 per cent chance I’m working, inclusive of weekends and holidays.


What do you like to do when you’re not writing?
I love to read, watch television, see 3-D IMAX action films, and spend time hanging out with my kids.


Entwined With You is Out Now!!

Reflected By You(Crossfire #2) By Sylvia Day

didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it

Plot
Gideon Cross. As beautiful and flawless on the outside as he was damaged and tormented on the inside. He was a bright, scorching flame that singed me with the darkest of pleasures. I couldn't stay away. i didn't want to. He was my addiction...My every desire...Mine

My past was as violent as his, and I was just as broken. We'd never work. It was too hard, too painful... except when it was perfect. Those moments when the driving hunger and desperate love were the most exquisite insanity. We were bound by our need. And our passion would take us beyond our limits to the sweetest, sharpest edge of obsession...

My Opinion

Eeeekkkkk! Squeeeeeel! Ooooooo! Absolutely Beautiful Perfect Read!!

Definitely the two perfect people for Eva and Gideon. David Gandy My Perfect Mr Dark and Dangerous!!

"I WAS seriously hurt because of you. Seeing you in another guy's arms, kissing him... It shredded me, Eva. Cut me open and left me bleeding. I kicked his ass in self-defense."


I was so involved in this book, i devoured it!

If you loved Bared To You then you will extremely want to have this book in your possession. We are brought back into the complicated lives of Eva and Gideon and their whirl wind of a relationship and in depth of how the story was left at the end of the first book. You will be dragged into an emotional and exhausting journey between two broken people but have undying love for each other.


Eva is a girl who wears her heart on her sleeve and spills every tiny secret to prove to Gideon that she is his and only his... Where as Gideon is the total opposite and is bottling up every secret and refuses to say anything only for Eva to trust him.

 "He was my drug, and i had no desire to kick the habit."

They both seem to hurt each other in their own sort of way but always come running back in to each other's arms. It is a sick and possessive relationship they have and you just wish sometimes in the book that they would either walk away and separate completely or you want to bang both their heads together and make them see that their is just too true.

 "I'd rather argue with you, angel, then laugh with anyone else."


I could go into details about the book and why i loved it so much...However i just recommend you buy the book and read for yourself. I was so engrossed with the love between Gideon and Eva. A fantastic erotic journey to hell and back which will be wishing you had your very own Gideon Cross.

I am so gutted i have finished the book now..however i will be pining for 7th May to hurry up so i can follow on with Entwined with you and carry on with the journey...

Bared To You (Crossfire #1) By Sylvia Day

didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it didn't like it

Plot
Our Journey began in fire...
Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness-beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as i'd never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily... Gideon knew. He had demons of his own, And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other's most private wounds... and desires. The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart...


My Opinion
A friend recommended to me this Author Sylvia Day as we had both recently just finished all the fifty shades series. I have to say even though i did love the fifty shades trilogy i preferred this book as it was well written better.


We meet the main characters Eva Tramell and Gideon Cross, they meet the first time in his crossfire building which is where Eva happens to work as well. They soon become involved in a whirl wind relationship but find out they both have broken pasts but yet still are attracted to each other. They soon become obsessed with each other and are never apart...

I loved that it had such a flow into a love story and getting to know more about Eva and Gideon. It was a great read and I couldn't put my kindle down as i wanting to hurry to see what happened next on every page.
I loved the name Eva nicknamed Gideon aka Mr Dark and Dangerous. I kept trying to picture my own Gideon Cross and this who i thought fitted perfectly
- My Perfect Man he would be ;)

I cannot wait to follow on in the crossfire series and read more about Eva and Gideon's Life's. I don't want to spoil or give any more details away about the series just I recommend anybody to pick up this book and give it a go! You won't know what your missing. We all need our very own Gideon Cross sometimes...
