I said it before on different thread but I think most of Entwined if not all Gideon and Eva will have a secret love affair. Which should make for some really hot sex scenes. But will also give them time to build a better foundation for their relationship with no outside influences.

I wonder if it could be a mis trial due to detective graves tricking Eva .

Maybe the snapshot with the detective badge is that detective graves has to hand her badge in because of misconduct trying to trick Eva .

A mis trial wouldn't solve much the DA could always re file charges at a later date if new evidence were discovered. I doubt Graves would lose her job over trying to trick Eva police are allowed to lie and mis lead suspects and witnesses to try and trip up and catch people in lies. Sure a lawyer could argue entrapment but those cases hard to prove that the cop crossed the line from moral grey area to illegal.

No.. Only because like SD said can you imagine One without the other.!! Trial.. Maybe..!!

I was saying on another thread that if Gideon did stand trial it might be for the best because he could be found innocent by a jury because of reasonable doubt due to lack of physical evidence. Then could never be re- tried ( even if the cops did find concrete proof Gideon killed Nathan after the trial) for Nathan's murder because that would be double jepoardy. Thats one way for Gideon to get away with murder and never having worry about the cops still trying to arrest him.

I have just sat and re- read chapter 1 again.

Up to now it's been Eva's story, her pov. I was thinking about it from Gideons perspective. We know how badly Eva is hurting, all the indescribable pain she as suffered over the past few weeks, the humiliation that Gideon put her through. But think about it from Gideons pov.

Can you imagine how he felt, being so cruel, cold and heartless to the woman he loves. Yes, he went about it all wrong, but he thought he was doing what was right for Eva .

To see her daily, having to ignore her as if she didn't exist. This poor man, who loves the woman with all his heart, this already broken man, he was hurting as much as Eva.

Very true. Its going to take some time and communication on both their parts to restore the trust and heal their broken hearts.

On another subject, one of the things that touched me most deeply about what Gideon said to Eva in Chapter One is his willingness to let her go now. He didn't want her to spend the rest of her life afraid of him if she honestly believed he was a violent person. She suffered enough being afraid of Nathan. He was promising no more trying to manipulate her emotions, to chase after her, to try to force her to take him back for the upteenth time.

He was willing to spend the rest of his life without her, even though it would kill him, rather than try to force her to stay with him.

Poor Gideon.

I loved that too. It had me on the verge of crying. It proved Gideon could be 100% selfless in his love for Eva and put her before his own need and want for her. Gideon understandably thinks Eva should be terrified of him and she is emotionally and mentally but not physically. Gideon and Eva know Gideon 's very capable of violence even though he would never harm Eva on purpose.Although in his nightmares he has come close but he can' t help that and took precautions to make sure it didn't happen again. I personally think Gideon is a little to focused on the physical side of Eva's well being and needs to consentrate on making amends for the emotional and mental abuse she suffered through due to his actions.

Eva and Gideon both have people in their lives who care deeply for each of them and want each of them to be happy. But right now, I think only Angus and Ireland still believe Eva and Gideon can make one another happy. As things now stand, Cary believes Gideon would continue to make Eva miserable, and Arnoldo believes Eva would only hurt Gideon even more than she already did.

totally agree. I said that in a earlier post.

It's upsetting to me that so many people are out to destroy Gideon and Eva's relationship...

Who is on their side...who can they count on to support them?

Angus is the only one who comes to mind...

Angus and definitely Ireland.

Eva needs to do some good ole fashioned BI$CH Slapping!!!

Re- read the Oscar Night Snippet she doing some kind of fighting with someone because Gideon tells her not to fight his battles for him she then she says "I protect whats mine"

Guys, it's NOT against the law. Sometimes, I wish it were. But it's NOT. I would have had my @** sued and my newspaper financially ruined if it were against the law. There are no LAWS that say "you cannot publish the name of a crime victim" nor "you cannot publish the name of minors." The First Amendment forbids any such laws from existing, because they would be unconstitutional.

News organizations that don't run the names are doing so by voluntary CHOICE. Not because some state and/or Federal law exists.

You are absolutely correct! I studied Criminal Justice for 4 years. Freedom of speech and press protect the rights of news organizations to report as long as they report the truth. Most news organizations voluntary leave victims names out of the press out of respect. Not wanting to re- victimize them with the world knowing their personal business. Its called Integral Journalism.

I forgot to mention this, I was on FB and saw a post it said it was an exclusive from SD, and in the snippet Cary was Getting out of the shower to his ringing phone, he smiled at the name and answered, the voice on the other end said can we meet to come up with a plan, Cary then says You mean something that's going to get your BROTHER and my best Friend back together and Ireland says yes..! Not sure how true it was but I meant to mention it. I'm going to see if I can find it again.!

Oh I hope so. Maybe thats why Cary and Eva and Ireland Gideon meet up at the Vidal party. And the comments Cary makes about Brett( who is also at the party in Time Square) asking Eva if she ever thinks about Brett banging her brainless is only to see if she wants Brett or Gideon.

So are we assuming that this reporter was one of Gideon's "partners"??

I guess so since Eva sort of assumed that she was based on her looks( brown hair, tall,slender,and tan) and the way that she talked about him like she knew him and didn't like him.

OMG!!!!!!! Amazing I love Sylvia so much. Deanna Johnson is definitely going to be a problem. And she already obviously knows about Brett and that Eva is "Golden" But d** n that sex scene was hot!!

I just looked at the snapshot for today again and I'm wondering if Gideon is pulling the covers/sheets off Eva. At first I thought he was clutching the sheets but I only found references of Eva clutching sheets in the first two books...unless I missed one.

BTY when Eva spends the night with Gideon for the time after the hotel. She says he fisted the bottom sheet during his nightmare.

I think Cary loves Eva like a brother. They have learned to support each other emotionally. Personally, I think Cary is even more damaged than Eva. He hasn't figured out how to move on with his life in a constructive way yet. Cary leans on Eva to keep him moving forward. I don't think he is jealous of Gideon and Eva’s relationship but I think he is afraid that he won't survive without Eva's help and he doesn’t know how he will fit in Eva’s life if she is in a permanent relationship.

Also, I think Eva mentioned one time that his career is dependent on his good looks. So in addition to the emotional damage he is very insecure about what his future will be if he can't model. My guess his good looks were blamed for his abuse by whomever his abuser was.

I agree. Have you noticed that Cary never once specifically uses the words 'I love you" to Eva he always says things like "back atcha baby girl" To me that spoke volumes that he can feel love but can't express it not even to Eva who is without a doubt the most important person in his life.xj

I think Mags is really a friend to Gideon. She realizes she is never going to have him, and she just wants to see him happy. She "knows" Gideon. She sees how different he is with Eva, probably even realizes the difference between Gideon and Corrine's relationship when they were younger, and the relationship she sees him having with Eva. So in my opinion she's team Eva.

I agree. Magdalene is very observant( like she could tell Eva and Gideon had already had sex at the advocacy dinner even though she said so more crudely) I believe she can tell how happy Gideon was with Eva and since she truely loves Gideon and only wants him happy she is willing to be "friendly" with Eva for Gideon's sake. She doesn't want to lose her friend. Since she can also probably tell how unhappy he is now that Corrine is back in picture she figures Corrine as an enemy and Eva does too. So the expression ' the enemy of my enemy is my friend" comes to mind . Magdalene probably would much rather lose Gideon( even though she never really had him) to the love of his life than just and old flame playing mind games.

Everyone keeps saying they hope chapter 1 is long. Well the chapters in BTY average between 7 to 10 pages and in RIY chapters average between 7 to 13 pages. I am hoping for at least ten pages.

Oh I totally agree Eva would be devastated .But if Gideon did get arrested as much money as he has I can easily picture his high priced defense attorney getting him out on bail as long as he forefitted his passport. Since he is a Billionaire CEO that has company to run. And a murder case like that would be high profile so it would probably be brought to trial as quickly as possible. I am having nothing but happy thoughts but I always have to be a bit realistic even if it sucks to be so.

i don't want to throw a spanner in the works, but I just hope, that this book doesn't end with a cliff hanger of Gideon being arrested!! please god no!

Oh Please don't say that I think that is everyone's worst fear. Although if he were arrested and the case went to trial it might be for the best. Let's say he was tried for murder one ( murder in the 1st degree) and the jury found him innocent because of reasonable doubt because the lack of any physical evidence. He could never(not even the cops found concrete evidence that Gideon did kill Nathan after the trial was over) be tried for Nathan's murder again, because that would be Double Jepoardy. So maybe that's what SD is planning? It be just about the only way the Gideon could get away with murder without always having to worry.

I hope its some really hot sex not a nightmare I get a sick feeling everytime Gideon almost hurts Eva. I know its not his fault but it still makes me mad and then I feel bad for both Gideon and Eva.

Hi jenpenn so you know first hand what I'm talking about!!

oh yeah its absolutely beautiful country up there and I think the fresh air would do Gideon some good don't you?

I live in West Virginia and its thought to be remote they would never look for a billionaire here!!!

Most of my family is in West Virginia in Charleston and close to Richwood. I think we could for sure hide Gideon on a mountain somewhere. Its very easy to get lost in those woods if don't know your way around.

I don't think I have ever been so excited for a Tuesday in my life. Hurry up please I can't wait for the first chapter.

All I Ever Needed by Paul McDonald with Nikki Reed and Arms by Christina Perri

What about when Gideon popped into Eva's apartment before the advocacy dinner? I always thought her doorman phoned Gideon to tell him she had returned from the day spa or do you think Gideon was having her followed even then? And Gideon must have access to her credit card information because how would he be able to purchase her brands of cosmetics etc I have always wondered about this what do you all think?

I just went back and re-read that section I believe Gideon was already having her followed and here's why. 1 st off he knew she was home alone because why else would he take her to the couch instead if her room he knew Cary wasn't there. 2 nd he knew she had a spa day without her telling him because he specifically ask had she been waxed that day.
