Julie that reminds me I always thought Angus put an end to Hugh's abuse too.  That kind of kills my theory that Hugh moved onto Chris Jr.  Angus is a good man and wouldn't leave Hugh around to hurt anyone else. If Chris was abused by Hugh it was before Gideon left home.  However, like Gideon said "He takes sibling rivalry to the extreme."  Chris is most likely very jealous of Gideon because Gideon is more successful in all areas.

Gideon does mention that He(Gideon) was left alone with Hugh not We(Gideon and Chris) more and more. I couldn't see Hugh raping Gideon with Chris in the room. Because his nightmares tell us this happened in BTY.

How much of his abuse will he tell to Eva and Dr Petersen?

Ah!! Angus, the mystery man!

I love Angus.

 

It will be interesting to learn more about him.  We know he drove Gideon to school when he worked for Chris Vidal and we know Gideon hired him away from Vidal when Gideon was 20.  Could he have known about Hugh's abuse of Gideon and, therefore, stepped in to protect him?  Will Angus have a family or do you think he is only dedicated to Gideon and through him to Eva?

 

I hope Gideon talks about his relationship with Angus.  Does Gideon see him as a father figure, a friend or a trusted employee?

I wouldn't say Gideon sees him as an employee, as such. But he definitely is a friend confidante, and above all the only father figure Gideon has known.

He knows what Gideon thinks and what he wants. Spelling it out for Eva on a couple of occasions ie the concert and the hospital.

I reckon Angus saved Gideons life regarding his abuse.

Julie, Julie, Julie, can't wait to see Monica's backstory.

I think she would have made a great high class escort Sharon. That's how she met her millionaire husbands.

I shall buy you crow pie and take us for a night out at Primal if I'm wrong. Lol ;)

I still think Monica's secret, is her being an escort, albeit upmarket. How else did she cope financially after being cut off.

I completely agree julie! I know we will find out things we could have never imagined. SD does that to us, gives us a bone and we take it somewhere then when the book comes out we are completely blinded and shocked and wayyyy off on our theories lol!

hey fluffy

Never know what Sylvia's go to throw in the mix. Never saw the sextape coming.

Are there any reactions to Chris as a father?

Gideon says he refuses to take sides when Gideon and Christopher disagree in the business.

I do not think Gideon has a strong, competent father figure in his life.

I know Victor has his flaws but can he serve in that capacity? Victor did step up for Eva in her later life. Cary likes him too.

I have to disagree with you there.

Angus has stepped up to the plate for Gideon.

He has been with Gideon for many years, he has been Gideons father figure. He is Gideons confidante.

That's why he was at the wedding.

Never diss our Angus.

I think he doesn't want to acknowledge it. This is a man that for so many years has completely disregarded his demons. It's going to be a while before he acknowledges things that he for so long has suppressed.

Hey fluffy. Once he starts to acknowledge his past, which he has started to do with Eva, it will be like opening Pandora's box. Him talking about Hugh and his abuse was a huge step for him. . All h.e.l.l will be unleashed.

Hey Julie *waves*

Hello Angels.......Agree with you!!

hi Gideons Angels!

This is where it all began Angels!

Couldn't agree more Julie!!

Not being rude ladies but sometimes when I read these posts I want to shout at my computer "IT'S NOT REAL!!!!"

I know we are all emotionally attached to Gideon and Eva's story but lets keep the forum a nice happy and light hearted place for everyone to post on!!

Hello my little angel!

Can I just say, this is a book you are talking about. Made up characters, and story by an exceptional author.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions and theories. It is not meant to be taken seriously.

Recent postings seem to have got a bit out of hand.

I thought it was for adults these pages?

Come on ladies get a grip!

This use to be a fun page, not so much these days unfortunately. :(

Thank you Sylvia.

I can feel the angst already. Sigh.

Read them both-she used to have a blog site with Sebastian's and Caro's POV. Can't find it anymore. She has a 50 Shades blog and does a pretty good fan fiction with Taylor's POV and both Ana and Christian's.

The page is down at the moment. She said it would be back!! :)

A long, long time ago I said that I didn't feel anything happened to her. After she broke up with Michael (who's a bit of a commitment-phobe), I think he revisited and revised and took her away (like Gid did with Eva to SC) to profess his undying love.

I'll admit I may be eating crow at Tableau One when we find out. But hey-everyone's invited!!!

Huh. I. Eating it with you. feathers an all! Lol

Ok ladies. New books to read

Education Of Sebastian

Education Of Caroline.

By Jane Harvey-Berrick

So much passion angst, heartwarming and heartbreaking, and sexy as he*l. Do not miss this story.

Hi Shan--

 

I liked Jane's Melody, didn't love it.  The Remembrance series is very, very romantic.  Good love scenes but not as erotic as Sylvia's. More like the love scenes in the GABRIEL series which I adore.  I enjoyed the whole series.  UNLOCKED  is the final book in the Alpha series.  As I said upthread, you really should read all 3 together as they really are only 1 book sort of sliced up.  The real story is in the third book, UNLOCKED.  The other 2 are kind of like background and hot se x.  I also read COLLIDE.  I forget most of it.  I think I liked it, but I did not read  PULSE which I think is about another of the triplets?  Will definitely look into THE BLACKSTONE AFFAIR.  Thanks.

 

I just saw that A PASSION FOR HIM is another book from Sylvia's Georgian series.  How I missed it, I am not sure.  I am gonna look into that today as I love historical fiction.

GLH

You need to read, Passion for the Game, first. Passion for Him came after, to make sense.

They are good.

  

This is what Gideon should have wore to the Garden Party at the Vidal Estate in BTY...

Huh!

Henry/Gideon would look fab in a fig leaf!!! Snigger snigger! :wub:

It occurs to me that perhaps there's some confusion about what the term "nanny" means.  A nanny is a babysitter who works in your house.  A live-in nanny or overnight nanny stays overnight, but simply saying that there's a "nanny" doesn't imply that there's an overnight or a 24-hours-a-day sitter.  And I'm sure that the posters who suggested that Eva and Gideon wouldn't have a nanny "because they'll want to be involved parents" didn't mean to be so offensive.  Obviously most parents want to be involved.  And one can absolutely be an attentive, caring, involved parent while still working outside the home.

Just like to say, when I made the post about nannies it wasn't meant in an offensive manner. As a long time poster to these pages, we are all entitled to our opinions, as to where the story may or may not go. It's these opinions and theories that make this forum FUN. After all, at the end of the day it's just a book, with characters that we love or in Corinnes case hate!

I was looking for a dress for a wedding I'm invited to and I think this is Eva's garden party dress.  (One of my favorite sections.)  It is a "made to order" and additional crinolines can be added.  I don't know if leather flowers are an option but this has to be close.

 

How beautiful Sharon.

Just read

Accidentally on Purpose Book 1

Worthy of Redemption Book 2

By L Davis

Brilliant reads. Angsty. Tension passion torment. Got it all. Tissues required

No I don't want want to see babies either but I would love to see a book written 5 years later...I don't think GidEva will have nannies it will be all hands on parenting!! I'd love to hear about Gideon changing some diapers while Eva slips out for a girls nite out !!

Hiya.

I don't think they will have nannies either. They will be hands on parents. I don't think Gideon would trust his children to strangers, after all look what happened to him!!

I would like an epilogue to the series. As you say 5 years later would be a good time frame.

Does anyone think now that G And E are married now by the end of book 4 Eva will be pregnant??

I hope not. There is too much healing to be done. Pregnancy thrown into the mix will add to the problems. Each book is just a matter of weeks. There is plenty of time for babies. But they can keep practicing!!! Phew!!!

A post from Sylvia advertising her novella, Razor's Edge.  In the comments . . .

 

"Will u have a little tease of the first two chapters of 4th crossfire in ur webpage? Getting anxious here..."

 

Sylvia Day: Sept 24

 

Of course, she might have been answering a question from several hours earlier about when the novella is available to download.  That date is 9/24, so it seems most likely.  Drat.

Hi

I think that answer is in reference to the Razors Edge book.

No Gideon yet!! Humph! :(

Stunning, simple stunning,!!

My favourite. X

I didn't wonder if he was really dead, but I DID wonder if he'd somehow been framed for the financial mid-deeds, and if it was possible that someone else was responsible: maybe Lizzie or Chris, Sr.  I also wondered if his suicide was really a suicide, or if it were a murder faked to look like a suicide.  It could be very cathartic for Gideon if his father was exonerated.  It might change the way he feels about himself.  I admit, though, that I'm ready to suspect that awful mother of his of nearly anything.  I can't STAND that woman!

Hi carol

I did suggest a while ago, that Geoffrey may have been murdered, by a disgruntled investor. But I also think that Gideon actually found his father after the shooting.

It is going to take a lot to forgive Elizabeth, as she is not on team Eva.

after fight with Brett

 

You are our queen of the posters Sheena. :)
