Thanks for this Gigi! couple of corrections....I'm going to try and edit it w/in your type

Yes!! Of course! Cross babies I love it Those children will be the most over-protected children....ever... lol...Love it!

Ok, I've decided that I want book four to come out ASAP (duh) and in book four I'd like Deanna, Brett, Tat, Corrine & Giroux to go away....away-away... Let Gideon heal w/ his mother and Christopher, Victor to find someone new who will love him and take care of him, Monica to lay off Eva,( just help plan the beautiful wedding in record time), have nothing be wrong w/ Megumi, Cary take control of his life. The s e x tape to go away. The bracelet to be planted by Clancy and murder case closed.  Then, book 5 will just be our two love birds in newlywed bliss, enjoying each other and making beautiful happy memories.Traveling. Maybe Eva works for/with Gideon...w/ Mark like some of you have suggested...  Ok....just a few of my random suggestions. Just can't wait for this next book, and hopefully A LOT of answers and problems solved.  What does everyone else want to happen?

True true....she's just gotta get over it! She'll probably try to latch on to Christopher next.... Â Exactly! Â Sorry to hear that Angelmine, you're right. Everyone is different, and I'm sure Eva tried her hardest to hide the abuse from her mom. I just don't know what Nathan could hold over her at a young age that would keep her from telling. It's sad. Especially that it went unnoticed for so long.

Yes, she should really move on. I guess she thinks w. her job, she could use it to get back at him. But, it's not like he's spreading the word that they were together, he's not further embarrassing her. I feel like she's doing that to herself. Monica, I just want to know her story....what was she doing the whole time!? her husband wasn't even around too much. Someone had said something about her being involved/realted to the Russian mob....Idk...do they present their daughters to society as debutantes too? Right, I agree. It was horrible the way he treated her. He did say he didn't think he speak more than a doz words to her the whole night, and she still left w/ him. Idk, drama drama drama.

I thought it was pretty good. From what I remember, it was pretty true to the book... (I think, it's been a while )   Darn! I really want to get these but I don't want to pay $10 per book...only for the Crossfire series do I do that! lol..well, and for Gone Girl and Casual Vacancy $13 ea No problem  I haven't read any fanfiction....I may have to check it out

Hey Ladies, Did anyone else want more details on their beach wedding? Like how Gideon gave Eva the ring? Did she see it for the first time when he put it on her finger? Or after he said 'marry me' on the chaise after pulling her from the water? I'm sure we're going to get to read all the vows from their next wedding, but , idk...I kinda wanted more. Greedy, I know. I think that Gideon will design her wedding band...maybe inscribe something sweet inside.  I reread EWY last night...lol...sooo...got some thoughts/questions.  Deanna really really annoys me. I mean, it was a one night stand...how hurt could you be? What was she expecting?  I hope the Megumi thing is just her being sick and lazy to respond...Eva doesn't need more drama.  I've said this before, but I think that Monica should feel extremely guilty for what happened to Eva. Four years is a LONG time....I mean, maybe the abuse only occurred when Monica and Barker were out, events, trips etc...but still...Like Eva said, the staff -hate them too- had to have known...so how could your own mother not catch on?!?!  Oh! That's the other thing! re where Eva grew up...I thought it was it was in Cali the whole time, only moving to SD in college to be by Victor...but in rereading last night, the part I noticed is when Victor called Eva after finding out and said 'how could she not have known something was wrong? I knew when you came to California!' (something like that)....so where was Eva living?I guess wherever Monica's husbands were .  I hope Tatiana isn't preg either...Btw, I just realized, in reading these posts, why I was so confused w/ the whole Tatiana naked scene. I thought that it was Tatiana walking INTO the kitchen when Eva stopped her ( idk what I was thinking )...but it was her walking BACK to the bedroom w/ two bottles of water...Duh  ...I really want to know if she and Gideon had a conversation lol...or did he just turn around and make his coffee?? Ok...that's all I can remember now ... I can't believe we have to wait another month to get snippets/snapshots  again, greedy.... Maybe not a Sept release then? Boo

Hi SME....The Edge of Never was emotional, but a good read. The second book continues their story, but the first one doesn't leave you w/ a cliffhanger. I got it b/c of it's good reviews, plus it was on sale for $.99 ! So worth it! I know Gabri....I didn't want to reread The Kite Runner either...Hosseini has a new book out now that I'll probably read.  Water for Elephants and The Hunger Games series I re read b/c they were so good. I got a bit teary reading those too. I just noticed those three were made into movies....Saw WfE ( I liked it) and THG...but I couldn't watch TKR...that would've been too much for me.  OH! I forgot to add Casual Vacancy to the non-romance list...It's the first I've read from JK Rowling (never read harry Potter...I know...I know). That was great too...pretty emotional .

Ok...Here's my list of books that I've enjoyed since starting this genre of books (Romance, contemporary etc)  Seven Years to Sin by Sylvia Day ( )  Beauty from Pain (cliffhanger) by Georgia Cates Beauty from Surrender Beauty from ____ TBR idk when...she's just decided to write it, so book 2 end nicely w/o a cliffhanger Georgia is very vocal w/ her fans on FB like SD...super friendly and asks for a lot of input She's also written YA books Going Under & Shallow  Collide (cliffhanger) by Gail McHugh Pulse due Aug 10 the final book in series  On Dublin Street (LOVED!) by Samantha Young Until Fountain Bridge follows two characters from ODS Down London Rd (haven't read yet) follows a character from ODS I believe she's got another book coming out from this series  Tangled by Emma Chase This was so funny...male POV  Wallbanger by Alice Clayton This was HYSTERICAL! I loved this book and LOL'd the whole time.  Beautiful ###### Beautiful Stranger by Christina Lauren These two were good  The Edge of Never (Cried like a baby....sooo good!) The Edge of Always tbr Nov by J.A Redmerski  Lost to You Take this Regret A.L. Jackson  Hopeless by Colleen Hoover Losing Hope TBR in July  Not in the romance dept:  Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn...whoa..what a book! I literally screamed at my iPad at the end...my husband was like 'wtf??' lol I also read her other two books...she's such a great writer..I was stunned at the end of both..well all three Dark Places Sharp Objects (very disturbing to me)  The Help  Kathryn Stockett Water for Elephants Sara Gruen The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins The Kite Runner A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini anything by Mitch Albom  Ok...that's my List! I've read a bunch more but only lised the ones i'd rec  I'm waiting for the price to drop on the Stark and Blackstone series so I could buy and read those...they look good and I know you ladies have rec'd them.

Hey ladies , I've had the Blackstone series in my wish list waiting for price drop. So far got the third one for $2.99. I just sampled Claim Me by K. Jenner and now I'm interested in that lol. But that's another incomplete series ! FSOG was also my first in these type of books, Crossfire next (so much better, and hard to top !). Loved On Dublin St too Great pics btw :)

A few thoughts here;  Do we think that Gideon is telling Dr. Peterson about his abuse? We know he's told him about his nightmares b/c he's gotten medication for it, but ....seeing as he really doesn't trust doctors and is so tight lipped w/ Eva, could he just be skirtting the issue? He's gotta be telling him right? Idk, I was just thinking about this.  I really hope Anne Lucas isn't involved w/ the Vidals at all. That would be so creepy and scary and just gross.  I too wonder why Eva is so reluctant to tell anyone about their 'engagement'. I mean, Gideon had to tell her coworkers. I'm confused about the not telling Monica either when she had a chance. I'm sure she must've though before they got to the event. There's no way she missed the ring.  I hope the trip to SD will be good....for everone. A visit w/ Dr. Travis and Victor and hopefully no Brett...or maybe a nice break w/ Brett.  Ok...that's all for now. Off to enjoy this beautiful Sunday before the rain

Anybody go to Sylvia's event in FLA? Any new info?

Love this! Hope the Brett situation is dealt w/ in SD. and I'd love it if Gideon and VIctor hang out too...Get to know each other more.

Am I delusional to think CBY can come out between her other books in September ? I mean , if its finished and her publisher got enough backlash, wouldn't they want to make the readers happy and release ASAP?. Hopefully? Can't wait for snippets ....bring on the torcher(sp?) ....why do I not know how to spell that word lol ? You ladies are so much fun to read! Corinne needs to be gone ASAP ...same for Deanna ...and Brett ....can we not just have healing w our couple and a beautiful , drama free wedding ? I'm so excited for it ! I imagine Eva in a fitted lace gown w a dramatic train/veil. Sigh....can't wait !

As perfect as Adam Levine would be....didn't Eva describe him as being more muscular than Gideon ? So....pretty buff, no? Levine is pretty thin/lean....Hmmmm....who else could be bad boy Brett ?

That's a great one Maria5197!

  Totally agree w/ both of these...100%! Do we really think that Brett didn't know about the video though? That Sam never told him? It's been been years that he's had it. Was just waiting for 6/9ths to make it big before releasing it? Or maybe he never thought of releasing it until now..Eva was just one of Bretts groupies that he prob got on film, so no biggie...until now?  And yes...Benjamin Bratt is who i've been thinking of too! Perfect!

No, I want them gone by the time book 4 starts! Lol..>no more Corrine already!

Tottally agree w/ this! I felt sick for her reading about the video. Ughh..The night could have ended in the cab and I don't think it would've been rude..

  That's true Jennpenn...sorry didn't notice! Love it tho

Â

Lol...that was fun. Reminds me of On Dublin Street. Such a great book! Just read the novella Until Fountain Bridge...great too. On London Road is next!

Anyone know why Sylvia's Twitter feed isn't up anymore on this site? It used to be on the right site of the page.
