Well, since I am working on my endless
to-read pile of books, I didn't have a hard time waiting for this
book to come out.... Although now I can't wait for the next book
“Captivated by You”! I'm in love with Gideon, what can I say?
He's melted my heart..
The chemistry he and Eva have with
each other is something I think we all either have/wish we had with
the loves of our lives. If not, then that's how it should be.
-They're truthful with each other thru
out the book, it didn't have a lot of “leave you in the dark/
cliffhanger moments” and if it did it didn't take long for Ms. Day
explain what was going on. Unlike some other books that go on and on
with the drama while you pound your fist in the couch cushion waiting
for some sort of resolve...
- They talk about everything with each
other, something every couple needs to survive.
- The sex life that they have is O.M.G.
. . I'm completely jealous over it. Pretty sure this book alone had
double the sex than the previous books had lol!
“I know it's not
fair to ask you to be with me” – his head tilted back – “when
we can't even sleep in the same bed, but I'll love you better than
anyone else could. I'll take care of you and make you happy, I know I
can.” Gideon Cross
I melted.

There are a lot of certain things that
I want to share in this review but I don't want to spoil anything too
major for anyone. I do hope that people give it a chance to read and
fall in love with it as I have. I know a lot of people are bummed out
that this series started out as a trilogy and is now going to be 5
books total.. I swear I could be a part of one of those AA groups for
people who fall in love with fictional characters and never want
their stories to end. . . .
I really like Eva's character as a
whole. She's strong, built to succeed in anything she sets her mind
to, carefree to a certain degree, and smart. I love her wit that she
has about her, I kind of get the feeling that after reading how she
handles some heated situations with people she couldn't give a rats
ass about, that I could be like that in a similar setting if need be.
We've all been in one of those situations where someone will say
something to you, it escalates into something nasty for a minute or
two, and after it's over you come up with the perfect thing to say
right back at them. Yeah well I need to learn how to be more like
this chick when that happens again, because she has some spunk.
Also a lot of other women who have a
rich and powerful man in their lives would love nothing more than to
just sit around eating bonbons or chewing gum all day without a care
in the world. Not Eva, this girl is like the energizer bunny.
Juggling everything in her life, while maintaining a full- time job,
her Krav-Maga classes, etc.. Hopefully she'll stay this way in the
coming books.
I do feel bad for Eva's dad, the man
loves an unobtainable woman... The only thing she will ever love will
be money followed closely herself. Sad way to live. :( She and Eva
have a difficult time with each other in this book. Trust is a
H-U-G-E thing with Eva, so glad that she and Gideon didn't that
issue. That can get really old with the, “What did I do wrong this
time, What did I do wrong this time again, etc..” LOL!
Oh poor poor Cary, still torn between
choosing over Tatiana and Trey. I seriously hope that he chooses Trey
over that snarky B***, altho the author has made some interesting
changes in all of their lives thru the pages of Entwined...
I thought it was great that this booked
picked up right where “Reflected in You” left off. And that it
ended without a, “Why, What, or Huh?” cliffhanger kind of moment,
makes it easy to wait on book 4 knowing that it had a happy ending.
The plot thickens...
Alsooooo, seems we have some mystery
with some of the characters. Or maybe it's just me thinking too much
into them...? Megumi mysteriously calls in sick for 3 days at the end
of the book and she's impossible for Eva to get a hold of so she can
see if she's alright. That just seems fishy to me. Also, Will, just
seems to sort of show up wanting to go to lunch with Eva a lot.
Wonder if he's truly being friendly and just wanting someone to sit
thru lunch with him, or if he's working on another agenda?? Do they
have something to do with a certain article of jewelry that ended up
somewhere it wasn't supposed to be? Or could it be Cross's brother?
Maybe even the nosy reporter Deanna?? I could just be
watching/reading too many mystery movies/shows/books and they have me
thinking too much into it all, LOL!
Hi Krystle!
ReplyDeleteI am not sure if it was you or blogger friend that left a comment on my goodreads profile, but either way, I wanted to stop by and say hello! I am now following your blog as well as "liked" your facebook page and twitter.
I am absolutely in love with the Crossfire series by Sylvia Day! What a great review and I couldn't agree with you more. The chemistry between Gideon and Eva is electric and Gideon is the type of man that women can only dream of having, that one person that would do anything to keep you safe. So hot! And you are right, I really hope people stop complaining and give the rest of the series a shot. I know some people didn't realize that the series got expanded to 5 books instead of 3. Hey, I would have freaked out too if I thought book 3 was it. But lucky for me, I was on Day's website and learned about the extension of the series a few weeks before the release of Entwined With You. I just hope we don't have to wait a year for the next book!
Anyway, I also have a blog which you may or may not know. Feel free to stop by sometime. I'll have a new book review posted on Wednesday. Just finished reading this erotic romance called The Silver Chain by Primula Bond. I didn't like it at all! It had a few redeeming qualities but I had so many issues with that book! So if you should come across it, you may want to avoid it! I'll try to remember to send you a link of my review of it on Wednesday.
Yikes! Sorry for my long comment! Thanks again and I hope we keep in touch!
Best Wishes,
Mia @ The Muses Circle
I'm glad love this series as much as I do ! And I would like to see people stop complaining about it, so she's going to write 2 more books. Blah, big deal?!.. LOL! Thanks for stopping by and "liking" us! I did the same back to you :) !
