An incredibly INTENSE, Emotional, Palpable, Riviting, Erotic read that I devoured. Sex becomes a crutch to them, something they can safely retreat to whenever emotions become too big or too complicated, and eventually they're forced to admit that not only is that not enough, but they're going to self-destruct in the process. First, we are asked to believe that at only twenty-eight years of age, he has acquired wealth and CEO status. The world of New York executives and socialites comes alive in Bared to You and makes the story more engaging. Bared to You (Crossfire, #1) by Sylvia Day. Storyline concept rating: 5 stars. … and gah, the library scene!!! Eva has about 100+ IQ points on Ana, and can actually converse in an intelligent conversation without all of the "Whoa!
I feel a deep gratitude towards her 💕💕💕💕💕. It's like the author took the that book, then deliberately made her book opposite. REVIEW: Bared to You by Sylvia Day. So let me be clear: My warning is for the readers who made the decision to read the Fifty series based on 5-star reviews and popularity who moved out of their genre, taste or reading level to do that.
Show me the way, Eva honey. It is so ubiquitous, I have to wonder if the 'kink' hiding in this story isn't actually subliminal "1% fetishism". Their relationship is initially based solely on sex, but their connection is so powerful, that they are overwhelmed with the need to be with one another. I've written little bit when I've read it for the first time and I am not editing that. Hm.... Bared to you centers around Eva Tramell, a twenty four year old woman who is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. I loved how their love for each other made them stronger than any problems that came their way. With so much uncertainty swirling upon them, Gideon is struggling to fix the issues that vex him, and that impede a happily ever after with the woman he loves. Bared to you gideons point of view images. Runs after her and apologizes again. There's more, and there's not.
Please, tell me more about this New York-exclusive rubbish-processing behemoth on wheels... -_-. He kissed the end of my nose and ran his hands down my arms. We don't get to see much of his past, but you can tell its really heart-breaking. I do not find anything about that appealing in any way, shape or form – and wouldn't regardless of whether or not I'd read Fifty.
He grinned sheepishly, a boyish smile so at odds with the mature sexuality of his bared body. Similar themes, but with better characters, better writing, better plotting, better sex, and minus the degradation. I don't get defensive over it. I know that is probably not a very popular thing to say but since I read the Crossfire series Fifty Shades never even registered. I haven't read 50 and don't plan to. Sylvia Day Writing Styles in Bared to You: A Crossfire Novel | BookRags.com. The novel unfolds in dual POV, and as we see Eva continue to try and exert her independence, gaining Gideon's perspective allows us to more vividly feel the push and pull between them. Gideon Cross is just pure perfection in my eyes! It becomes clear early in the book that Eva suffered a trauma as a child and her mother is overprotective as a result.
"I'm so deep in you... The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart. No one in this novel has any flaws. I basically wanted more to happen above and beyond gaining additional insight into their relationship.
Gideva's story means so much to me. "I'm only afraid of losing you. More than once, I might add. There's still hope for us. Bared to you gideons point of view card. The lyrics so simply depicts the intensity of Gideon's love and need for his Eva. He's so messed up but he's trying his absolute best to be everything his girl needs him to be. At one point in the book, an insecure Eva wonders why Gideon wants her and thinks it's mostly for sex. Digging up personal info, making duplicate key copies, having Eva followed, and many more examples.
Oh, and this is after she stands up and drips his load all over the floor, making Gideon all hot and bothered because, apparently, lack of adequate hygiene is a major turn on for rich, neurotic alpha males. But even more than I liked the setting, I liked Eva, who was smart, sweet, and above all, honest with herself. It's a world of Calvin Klein ad models, toned and photogenicly sheened in odorless sweat, fucking on the immaculately decorated set of a feature piece for Vogue. In my humble opinion likely to become one of the best love stories of all times! Bared to you gideons point of view digital. That said, the characters do not tie each other up (he may tell her to hold onto something and not let go a few times, but he never binds her) and they do not physically punish one another (well, except the mighty slap). Oh, my god, you guys, this book!
So, why the 2 stars? Sex scenes rating: 5+ stars. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long, and what is even more disappointing is that it becomes almost an "opposite" FSOG. Gideon is all about giving pleasure and then saving his for last. It would be more productive than making fun of that Brit who did set the world on fire. WAAAAY better than that Fifty Shades of Grey. And some of the worst phrases for buttholes: the pucker of my anus (234). Review: Reflected in You. Unfortunately it was not a good one and I couldn't find what I needed.

But on the OTHER hand, admittedly a lot of that is sort of the point towards the end of the book. I don't need my fiction strewn with glossy images of super-rich lifestyles, impossibly sculpted bodies, decorated with brand products, or have my fictional mental traumas used to such transparently sensational plot-driven ends. I enjoyed her character (especially more than "innocent" Anastasia Steele) but she did get irritating at times. Hero maintains a platonic relationship with his past sexual partners, which drives a major wedge with the heroine.
Both Eva and Gideon are hiding some serious (SERIOUS) baggage after some horrific events in their pasts that mean neither of them have what you'd call a healthy perception of relationships.
