I got the audio books too. I agree, you do pick up on things. I also felt as if I was intruding when the scenes get hot and sweaty!

Don't you just want to sit them down and explain where their going wrong. They are exasperating at the very least! Aargh!

A little bit disappointed with Gideon. At the beginning of Bared, after Eva had returned from lunching with Stanton. She was in the lift, eating chocolate, when Gideon got in. He said no lies Eva, ever. Duh! What did he do in chapter 13, lie. Oh Gideon.

same here. My daughter gets cross when I want to use MY iPad. I remind her, that it was she, who introduced me to these books. I think she is regretting it now. I'M NOT! Best read ever!

morning Thanking you in advance.:)

hi I work, it's becoming an inconvenience, lol. Luckily I have an early shift, so will be home in the afternoon. Im a 54 year old Essex girl!! We are going to be doing this a long time, waiting for books 4 & 5 too. So glad it didn't stop at 3.

hi Gigi I'm thinking, as soon as Victor got back to California, he started digging, possibly calling in a few favours. No way will he just let this slide, he saw Eva's reaction that Friday evening. I'm surprised he went home to be honest, given that his daughter had become part of a murder investigation. Could he have not asked for special leave, or perhaps he thought he could dig a little, then come back when he has some answers, he knew Eva was hiding something. Doesn't anyone share in this book!

morning. Welcome to the forum I'm in the UK too. The chapter will be up about 2 pm approx. the same time as the snapshots have appeared. It's being posted 6 am pacific time. Their about 8 hours behind us. Your going to have fun here. It's so addictive. No time for housework. Lol

good morning Gigi We are like passing ships in the night. Your probably in bed now I'm up. Giving you a little winky smile;) . The winky smile is a semi colon and bracket. I think now Eva is a stronger person, she will be able to fight her own battles, if she is allowed to by Monica Gideon and Stanton. They have to back off and let her make mistakes and learn from them. It's called life. Monica and Gideon both have their reasons for wanting to protect her, i understand their fear, given what they have all been through. But she won't grow as a person if they keep interfering. The only way I can see Gideon destroying Corrine is to cut her off as a friend total. No contact, off the Christmas card list! He has given her false hope, I agree, which is rather callous. But she didn't waste any time trying to destroy a fragile relationship between Gideon and Eva at the dinner. Corrine was hurting Gideon as well as Eva that night, by being bitchy in a subtle way. Magdalena finally saw the light, realising Gideons friendship was important, so tried to make amends with Eva. I shall book Gideon a flight to Canada, when us ladies in Europe have finished with him! Don't hold your breathe though ;) ;)

night Gabri. Sleep well

hi ShazScott Shall I ring you up and read it over the phone? Lol anything for a forum buddy. :)

hi gabri Italy is a beautiful country. I will send him to you for some sun and relaxation. Then we send him back to Eva. That's where his heart lies.

I've ive come over all unnecessary!! :)

i finish work at 11am so I will be ready with my coffee and Im sure a tissue.

Do we know what time, USA time it's being posted please?

hope Sylvia types fast!!! We're going to be on this forum a long time. Could go in the Guinness book of records! Lol

Ready and waiting!

hi ShazScott He can start in England, then ill send him up to you!! But I might forget where Scotland is and have to keep him!!! lol

hi Gabri Your so lovely. I did try to understand your point of view. She should have taken more notice of Eva and Nathan for that matter. She should have seen how they interacted with each other, or not as the case maybe. Nathan ruined Eva's, Monica's, Gideons, and his fathers lives. They have a life sentence, his punishment is over. Monica does love Eva, but some of the things she does are not motherly. Is she trying to live part of her life through Eva. The dress she bought her, trying to change Eva's image, having a bit of a sulk, when Eva and Cary went to Las Vegas. She is a mother not her friend. Lets hope she changes in EWY.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!! So I think we can agree, there's no trip to England then. Shame. I did wonder if things got a bit dodgy, and Gideon does leave/flee the country? Hence the luggage tags. I'd give him asylum. :)

hi. I agree with what you say regarding Monica's mental health. My post may have come across as rather harsh, demonising Monica . But as a mother myself i felt she seriously let Eva down. Yes she loves her, wants the best for her and feels guilty about her abuse. But Eva was tortured and raped for four years, with no one lifting a finger to help her. How could she miss the signs? They must have been glaring at her. I hope Monica now lets Eva live her life as an adult, and guilt free.

hi LN Cronan I would be very happy to oblige. I love that our two countries have so much in common. I have sampled your countrys hospitality on many occasions, I will be returning next year. As much as we would love to have Gideon and Eva in England, from the time frame in the book, do you think a trip across the pond is possible? Also if Gideon (although he has not been charged) is chief suspect, wouldn't he have to surrender his passport? You would be very welcome in my home if you fancy some English hospitality. :)

then ladies, once we have digested, dissected, discussed, and discovered if our theories are correct. We will do it all again until the fourth book comes out! Yay!

it was me that questioned his sanity. To withstand that sort of turmoil, you would need to be a strong character which he is when his mask is in place. But underneath he is a broken man. As you say, he needs his HEA just as much as Eva. With her love and therapy, he will get there.

would Victor be able to access these records, using police computers or just investigating Nathan in general? .
