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...
HELLOOOOOOOO fellow book nerds!!
Man I feel like I really neglect not only this page but my beautiful bookcase full of books that are just waiting to be read and loved. I am such an awful book nerd...I mean how can I honestly call myself a book nerd anymore when I no longer read like I used to?? I really blame TV. All my extra time I used to spend reading I now spend watching TV. Really why do they have to have so many shows on TV that I like?
Anyway enough of that now on to a very ambiguous review...(LOL you'll see what I mean)
I finished up the second installment in the Crossfire series about a month ago but have yet to blog about it. I thought about doing a video but I’m still not so sure about them because my last was such a fiasco. But hey maybe I will bite the bullet and try again for the book I’m currently reading Low Pressure by Sandra Brown. I do plan on finishing it then reading the last book in the Crossfire series and then no matter what reading the Game of Thrones books.
So I have to say I actually enjoyed this book (Reflected in You) much better than the first book. I just feel like this one had a little bit more "meat" to it. More story. It seemed to move at a faster pace than the other (when I actually sat my butt down and turned off the TV).
There is a huge and I mean HUGE thing that happens in the book concerning Eva’s former step-brother and I wish....OH HOW I WISH....I could expound on it but I don’t want to have that big of a spoiler here so if you need to know but haven’t read the book then....you’ll have to read it because I just can’t say *agh the agony of containing a secret*
Also, an old flame comes back into Eva’s life and throws her world for a little bit of a loop. Also, Eva starts to slowly piece together what happened to Gideon as a child and even confronts his mother about it...that was probably one of favorite scenes in the book. Also, she confronts his ex-fiancé too and that was as well a great scene!!
*SIDE NOTE* My favorite Gideon and Eva scene was on the airplane to Vegas...trust me!
Also, because of the GIANORMOUS secret involving Eva’s step-brother Gideon starts to distance himself from Eva and she thinks that he’s finally done with her even after going to couple’s therapy with her. She sees Gideon exit his office with his former fiancé and she sees what she thinks is lipstick on his collar but is it? (I know what it is after trolling on Sylvia Day’s website forum and someone asked if it was and she told him it wasn’t...aghhh again I can’t tell you because it would give too much away!!)
Like I said this book had a lot more story to it and I can’t wait to see what happens in the third book. I highly recommend this book and this series (along with the Fifty Shades of Grey series).
Okay my lovely followers I must go before I accidentally spew spoilers....LATER!!!
Happy Reading,
Mindy
