Gideon Cross – Wow! Sylvia Day’s Crossfire Series is amazing!

Sylvia Day’s boxed set of the first 3 books in the Crossfire Series is on SALE for only $15.00!
This series is one of the best this year!  Great read!


** Update September 2013 ** 

The 4th book in the Crossfire series is called ‘Captivated by You’.  It will be the 4th of 5 books in this series!  The release day has not been set but will probably be mid 2014.

I know I have chosen Taylor Kitsch below as my Gideon but I have been persuaded to also consider Henry Cavill as Gideon!  That seems to be the consensus and I can’t agree more!

Entwined with You: A Crossfire Novel was released on June 4th worldwide and caused a massive commotion among all book lovers and bloggers.  Everyone seemed to move it straight to the top of their To Be Read piles including myself!  With the first two novels I literally read them within a few days and was very hooked.  The same is true with the 3rd novel although it definitely had a slower paced story than the other two!  If you don’t know, this series is going to be 5 books in total, the fourth book should come out by the end of the year according to the author Sylvia Day.  The third book Entwined with You continues on where Eva & Gideon left off and I’m not going to post any spoilers in this post incase you haven’t read Bared to You and Reflected in You yet.  You definitely need to read this series in order, they are not standalone books.

When I found out that Sylvia Day was coming to Australia I knew I had to go to one of her book signings here in Melbourne.  I don’t know how I came accross it, but ARRA (Australian Romance Readers Association) was having a competition to win a ticket to a special Morning Tea with Sylvia Day.  I entered the competition and a week later found out that I was invited!  I was over the moon!  The event was yesterady and I had the most amazing time meeting other fans, authors & bloggers (see me with Natasha is a Book Junkie below).  The Q&A session with Sylvia Day was fantastic, she was so lovely in answering all our questions!  She spoke a lot about the writing process for her and her inspiration.  She then kindly signed all the books I brought with me including some for myself and most importantly some to giveaway on this blog!

Over the last 7 or so months, I have interacted with a lot of authors, bloggers and readers whom I never would have had the opportunity to meet were it not for this blog.  Since I have read so many of Sylvia Day‘s books and kept up with all her latest offerings I have communicated a bit with her on twitter during this time.  I loved how she remembered me from twitter and even signed my book saying it’s great to meet in person.  I couldn’t believe my eyes and was thrilled!  I am really blessed with this blog to meet so many great people! 🙂

I have to thank for marilyn maldonado @bm2526 for tweeting this picture of Taylor Kitsch who I chose in my earlier entry to be my Gideon.  Over the last few months I have been swayed with Henry Carvill as well.  This is a tough one because Sylvia Day even said yesterday that Henry Carvill is probably the most ideal person who looks like Gideon but she hasn’t seen anyone as perfect as Gideon is in her head.  She also said that for the movie (yes there is a movie coming!!!) the actors will definitely have to be A list actors because they will be naked a lot of the time and have to be comfortable! 🙂 Yahhoooooo!!  She said she pictured Eva to look like Scarlett Johanson before she lost 25lbs recently!

After reading everywhere online that the Bared to You: A Crossfire Novel is definitely the next book to read after Fifty, I had to get it.  This is the first book in the Crossfire series by Sylvia Day and it is fantastic!  I think I might like Gideon Cross and his stalker qualities even better than Christian Grey!  He’s a hot, possessive, billionaire CEO!

The second book is called Reflected in You: A Crossfire Novel.  I read it a few days later and the story picks up right where it left off.  It goes deeper into the relationship between Eva and Gideon and is just as fascinating and a fun read.  It had all the angst and passion that made me not want to be interrupted at all while I was reading it which was great because my husband was working afternoons/nights so I had plenty of time to get sucked into the world of Upper Class New York City.

If this book gets made into a movie I vote that Taylor Kitsch gets to play Gideon!  After watching him in Battleship I knew he would be perfect for the role!  Based on these pictures how can you not agree??
