Overview
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.
2. My past was as violent as his, and I was just as broken. Weâd 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...
Reviews
THIS. BOOK. WAS. ABSOLUTELY. UTTERLY. PERFECT.
I loved every, single moment of it!
If I had custom ordered this book straight from the deepest book desires of my
heart, it could not have been any better.
Gideon Cross (oooo even his name gives me shivers) and Eva Tramell are one of
my TOP favorite book couples ever. It was absolutely beautiful to watch a couple
who were just so messed up but who wanted, with every fiber of their beings and
every corner of their hearts, to do everything in their power to make their
relationship work. Who were willing to sacrifice anything for each other. Who were
willing to apologize. To never give up. To try again. And again and again and again
until they made it work. Together.
Absolutely beautiful!!!!
The strength of their attraction, desire and need for each other is palatable. You
can feel it rolling off the page. It hits you every single time. Its scorching.
Consuming. Riveting. Intoxicating. But lust isn't enough to make a relationship
truly work. In order for their love to have the room to properly and healthily
develop, they have to learn to trust each other. And that truly is what is at the
heart of this book. Trust.
3. With a couple with as many issues, hang-ups, and fuck ups as Gideon and Eva,
yes, I admit it was sometimes frustrating to read through their problems. But the
thing was, despite some of them being irrational and over-the-top, I sympathized
with both of them about their insecurities and worries. Everything they felt, I
understood. Sometimes it was painful, but always understandable.
They were not perfect people. They both had secrets. They both had a lot to learn
about how to trust each other, find safety in each other, heal each other, save
each other... and in doing so, find a way to save themselves.
But as messed up as they both were, they worked through EVERYTHING!! A
couple after my own heart. **SQUEEEE**
âI didn't know I was looking for anything until I saw you.â
Gideon is the epitome of a complex, tortured, flawed, and mysterious hero. But
my dear God does he make my heart (and my panties) melt!!! I swear, flaws and
all, that man is pure perfection to me. I absolutely adored everything about his
character. Everything.
And we get a lot more insight into him- into his secrets, his nightmares, how he
became so rich, what he felt when they first met. For a story told entirely from
Eva's perspective, we do learn a lot about him in this book.
Eva is one of my favorite heroines as well. Never once have I wanted to throttle
her. She, just like Gideon, is seriously flawed and scarred by her past. She has
real insecurities, jealousies, worries, but I sympathized with them all and loved
her spirit, her dedication and her decisions.
As a couple, they were just so functional!! Watching them work so hard at their
relationship, where no matter what went wrong, letting nothing tear them apart...
it was inspiring, heart warming, and beautiful.
4. This book put my heart through a delicious ringer. It made it race, flutter, melt,
burn, freeze, drop, pound, stop... It broke my heart and it healed my heart. I
loved every minute!!!
Let me tell you though, in this book, Gideon will test your trust, patience and faith
in him to the absolute limit. He asks for Eva's trust, but as the reader, I felt for her
SO strongly that it was MY trust I was putting out there. I realized before all the
drama started that I had a choice and a decision to make: Did I trust him? Or
didn't I?
I realized that I loved his character enough to trust that he wouldn't ever betray
her... I was patient with him way past the point where I'd have lost patience with
any other character. But again, and again, and again I trusted, he tested, I
waited, I trusted and he tested some more. Serious props to Ms. Day for putting
me RIGHT in the heroine's mind. When you feel for what a character is going
through with all your heart, that's a sign of absolutely brilliant writing.
Please please please... if you are going to read this and hit that point where you
think you are going to lose faith in Gideon, just hang on. Trust me, the ending is
worth every moment of heart ache!!!
He caught me to him, his arms banded tight around me. His face pressed into my
throat. "Where do we go from here?"
I held him. "Wherever this takes us. Together.â
I can't tell you how absolutely happy the ending made me!!!! Seriously, I felt like I
could fly!! *happy dance*
"We were together because we were addicted to each other."
If Sylvia Day's Crossfire series were a drug it would be categorized under the
same shelf as some of the worlds most potent drugs. My Kindle was nearly glued
5. to my face while reading this book and I could not put it down from the moment I
started. Like Gideon Cross, I went hard and fast with this book and needed to read
it like I need air to breathe. REFLECTED IN YOU had me completely enthralled and
Sylvia Day left me transfixed on Eva Trammel and Gideon Cross' turbulent and
passionate love story.
"Maybe there were people out there whose love could survive anything, but mine
was fragile. It needed to be nurtured in order to thrive and grow."
REFLECTED IN YOU picks up the day after the events of Bared to You. Eva and
Gideon are working on establishing the foundations of their relationship and in
order to do that they must tackle their individual histories plus deal with bouts of
jealousy, possessiveness, and insecurities. As if there wasnât enough on their
plate, they also have to deal with friends, family and individuals from their past
who are set on making their life a little more difficult.
To say that REFLECTED IN YOU was high in drama would be an understatement.
The emotional highs and lows in this book made me want to reach for that bottle
of TUMS and start popping them like Tic-Tacs. Eva and Gideonâs relationship has
been one major train wreck that I have not been able to tear myself away from. In
essence, Eva and Gideon are two people who have no business in being in a
relationship, especially with each other. But even when there are so many odds
against them, Eva and Gideon fight tooth and nail to hold on to a love and
relationship they're addicted to and desperately need.
"I should've become used to the change that came over him when he looked at
me, but it still hit me with a force strong enough to rock me on my feet. That look
convereyed how hard and deep he wanted to f*ck me - which he did every chance
he got - and it also afforded me a glimpse of his raw, unrelenting for of will. A core
strength and command that masked everything Gideon did in life."
Even with all the drama that unravels in this book, I still believe that Eva and
Gideon really do belong to each other. Some say that two wrongs don't make a
right but in Eva and Gideons case, they absolutely do. Yes, their relationship is
dysfunctional and stressful but their undying love for each other is undeniable. As
6. flawed as they are, their union only makes sense and honestly there aren't many
people in the world who would be able to put up with all of their issues. As per the
usual, Eva played the jealous and feisty girlfriend which only made me like her
more. I give her props for wanting to claim her man and I really admired her for
having balls of steel for confronting Gideon's mother, Corinne and Dr. Lucas. As
for Gideon...well y'all already know how much I love this man but after reading
Reflected in You my love for him even went deeper. He's protective, commanding,
and over-bearing as ever and the depths he will go to for Eva will leave some of
you quite shocked. Without giving away any spoilers, I was schoked to find out
Sylvia Day took the path that she did with Gideon. I had my feelings about it and
wouldn't have doubted it but hot damn, Miss Day went there and left me with my
jaw dropped.
"I couldn't imagine that I'd ever fall in love again like I had with Gideon. For better
or worse, he was my soul mate. The other half of me. In many ways, he was my
reflection."
While REFLECTED IN YOU might leave you emotionally exhausted, the roller
coaster ride that is Eva and Gideon's relationship is completely worth the pain and
suffering. For a popular series like Crossfire with fans who are so engrossed with
the characters, Sylvia Day definitely had her work cut out for her follow up to
Bared to You. With Reflected in You as one of my mostly anticipated reads for
2012 I am more than happy to state that Sylvia Day more than delivered in this
sequel. The emotional highs and lows, intense, passionate and explosive love
scenes, and that jaw dropping ending are just a few reasons why this book is one
of my favorites from this year (along with Bared to You, of course). If you were a
fan of Bared to You, Reflected in You is definitely one book you'll want to get as
soon as it hits shelves.
I know that Entwined with You will be released in December but I am already
dying to find out what the conclusion of Eva and Gideon's relationship will be.
Crossfire is definitely my drug of choice and after reading each book, Sylvia Day
leaves me on the most amazing book high that I've ever experienced.
4.5 Stars!! No shades of grey hereâŠSylvia Day writes in full blown TECHNICOLOR!
She paints Eva and Gideonâs intense, passionate, tumultuous relationship, in rich
vivid detail. Just when you think their troubles are behind them, think again!
7. âYouâre the greatest risk Iâve ever taken.â His pressed his lips gently to mine. âAnd
the greatest reward.â
I was on the fence in the beginning about the plot. I found myself wondering
where this was going, and willing the story to move forward, but Sylvia Day was
weaving a tale that was very unexpected; a delightful intriguing surprise! My initial
annoyance at the storyâs pace, the characterâs inablitly to commit, namely Gideon,
left me grinning in after thought. How it was revealed; painstakingly slow⊠made
for some intense heart-pounding moments. I knew something was coming, but I
was never quite sure what it was. The author has the reader suffering along with
the charactersâŠand she does a damn good job of it! I feel compelled to read the
last half of the book again, to appreciate the way Sylvia Day manipulted the
characters and played with the readerâs mind.
âNo oneâs ever seen before, Eva. Youâre the only one.â
A huge part of this story is the need-based, extremely sexual relationship between
Eva and Gideon. It borders on desperation and obsessionâŠcorrection they ARE are
desperately obsessed with one another! Only they can understand, give to each
other, what is necessary to heal the pain of the past, but yet I have to wonder if
they are only hurting each other more. At times they are sweet and loving, but at
a moments notice, that love, insane desire, lust, becomes gritty and raw. You are
brought to the edgeâŠeach and every time! There is some down and dirty âgoings-
onâ!! WOW! WarningâŠdo not read this in public!!
âItâs what you see in me, angel,â he said quietly, his features softening. âThat you
can know what I have in me and still want me as much as I want you.â
Evaâs strength and determination to do find out what haunts Gideon, made me
appreciate her even more. Sheâs been somewhat of a strong character, except
when it comes to him. Her insane jealousy clouds her thinking and has her actions
bordering on stupid. However, she defies him in her quest to find out the truth,
takes no prisoners, when she rolls over everyone to get answers. Little more is
exposed about Gideonâs past, although there is a heartbreaking moment where we
8. get confirmation of what we already know. He is a contradiction; a powerful
confident entrepreneur, yet when it comes to Eva, he is easily shattered. She is
the only one who he reveals his vulnerability too. Their relationship is one that is
not easily remedied; it makes for a compelling, but somewhat frustrating read.
My only complaint would be the constant reference to the blessedly endowed
Gideon. I have no doubt that he has the goods, you donât need to tell me multiple
times, once, twiceâŠis enough. I get the pictureâŠas a matter-of-fact, itâs a vision I
canât seem to get out of my head, not that I want too!
While I wouldn't deem the ending a cliff-hanger, so many questions remained
unanswered and new ones have come to the forefront (view spoiler) However, I
was satisfied when I turned the last page; for all intents and purposes it had a
conclusive ending, with a little imagination on the readerâs part needing to be
thrown in.
Once again, Sylvia Day has earned the right to hold the title âBest-Selling Author.â
I have no doubt this book is going to be a hit, it certainly was with me. She has
written a sensual, captivating, powerful second installment in her Crossfire series.
It is sure to please readers, leave them breathless, and have them eagerly waiting
for more!!
Holy sh*t! What an amazing book! I've had nervous knots in my stomach and
have bitten down all my nails over the last three hours. What a fabulous second
book! Can't wait for the final book.
Reflected in You is the second book in the Crossfire Series, the first being Bared to
You. These books have been compared to Fifty Shades, but they are one thousand
times better than those books. You still get the sexy screwed-up billionaire alpha
male who comes off as so controlling it borders on stalking. However, the heroine
is no meek child. Eva is just as screwed-up as Gideon and she's also wealthy.
These books are about two damaged people who enter a dysfunctional relationship
and work as hard as they can to make it a functional one. The first book set up
their story and this book was more about Eva's past history. The story was
beautiful as sacrifices are made and they love each other unconditionally. I haven't
stopped thinking about the book since I read it a few days ago and I'm even
thinking of re-reading it. For those fans of Fifty Shades, this is a do not miss. It
9. doesn't have the BDSM, but still contains plenty of hot sex which Sylvia Day writes
to perfection. Once you read the first two in this series, the author has several
historical romances and paranormal romances with spice to hold you over until the
final book in this trilogy.
Well, this one will teach me not to doubt you, Sylvia Day!! Those slow and
annoying bits in the first half are completely forgotten and forgiven, and I bow to
your authorial splendor! Hold onto your hats, kids, 'cause this one is a bumpy,
angsty, lusty, desperate ride. Sylvia Day broke out the magical writing pen for this
one. Damn, woman, did you ever!
And, a personal plea from me to the Author Goddess: please, PLEASE write Brett
Kline's story!! You pushed my 'hot rocker' button, now you must deliver;-)
