absolutely!!: )Â I'm going to think of some questions that I can add to your list. One of them is definitely about Brett!!

that's what I'm thinking too!

I can totally see them getting married in a small ceremony on the beach possibly at the house in NC with their nearest & dearest - Cary, Ireland, Victor, Arnoldo, Monica, Stanton & of course Angus. Victor & Cary would give her away and Ireland would be maid of honor. Elopement would be another nice alternative and then have a small reception at the house in NC.

I totally agree with you. I believe he has learned his lesson and will not go back to his old ways after seeing the turmoil Eva went through because he kept her in the dark. When Eva told him about Nathan raping her in BTY, it always bothered me why Gideon didn't let her in on his rape. can anyone explain why he didn't tell her back in the beginning? Â

she's married and has both children & step children. Everyone always asks her husband if he is the inspiration behind Gideon and he always responds jokingly "yes" lol!! just because he gets that question so often. She's always being referred to E L James but unlike EL, Sylvia does more interviews and book signings and spends time with her fans.  Fame hasn't changed Sylvia one bit. She drives a Prius and lives in the same house she was living in when she had her daughter. All the more reason to love her!! some people let fame get their heads but not Sylvia!! She tries to stay under the radar with people recognizing her especially when she goes to the dentist. I think she goes by her married name with dr offices etc. She told us a funny story about her son had come home with paper (I think it was a bad grade on a test) from the teacher that Sylvia had to sign. So he goes back to school the next day and puts the paper on his teacher's desk and says "People wait for hours just to get her signature"! lol Â

can't wait to hear what info you get from the meet & greet!! : ) I wish I had written down questions beforehand!! Â

Hi amc, sylvia brought up in our meet & greet that she was in the army. She is a fascinating person!!

LN ~ I just wanted to say thank you so much for posting your Readers' Guide for each chapter. They're a tremendous help to me when I'm re-reading each chapter.... You ROCK!!!! : )

Hi! I really hope Victor moves to NYC to be closer to Eva!!  I'm in agreement with you regarding Megumi's boyfriend won't be someone special.   regarding Gideon being a "virgin" in serious relationships. I never thought of it that way but it definitely explains when he f*** ups a lot.  I live in East Brunswick. It would be great if we could meet up to discuss the book!! None of my friends are interested reading the book much less doing a book discussion about it...They don't know what they're missing lol!!  Â

I like your theory. It helps explain a lot!

enjoy the meet & greet!! it will be the best night ever for you!! she is truly a dedicated author who loves her fans and is the most down to earth person you will ever meet! : )

I agree with you. He's learning as he goes along and he's learnig from his mistakes. I'm just glad Eva didn't give up on him altogetherÂ

I'd say so too!!  When I first saw the luggage pics my first guess is that maybe Eva's name is the one hidden.

I hope he takes her back there in the EWY and surprises her!! : )

someone brought up the question about the luggage tags and if Eva's name is the one hidden and Sylvia didn't answer that question. she was sly about not answering it. darn lol

Me too! I was so upset during that part of the book and actually was mad at Gideon. Sylvia mentioned how someone asked why she had made Gideon into the bad guy. She said his heart was in the right place but he went about it the wrong way in doing it. I still say he should've given her a heads up. The poor girl was heart broken over seeing that picture of him & Corrine and thinking the absolute worst.

Hi Gigi, Regarding the conversation Eva had with Det. Graves, I felt like Eva did and believed her thinking she was genuine but after reading some of everyone's theories and yours below, and now I agree that with you that she wants to nail  gideon and lied to Eva. I don't want Graves hooking up with Eva's father! lol  I'm curious as to how Gideon is going to extricate Corrine from his life. I absolutely despise her with a passion for what she did to Eva and I know it's mean to say but I really want him to be cold and cruel when he gets rid of her but I have a feeling he won't be cruel with her but will set her straight that she never stood a chance of getting back together and that his heart always belonged to Eva.  Regarding matchmaking ~ I like who you paired off together - Magdalene & Arnoldo and maybe once Gideon says buh bye to Corrine she & Brett will get together because they will have something in common - both of them nursing broken hearts over losing Gideon and Eva. Just a thought! lol  Chris Jr. creeps me out too. I'm glad Sylvia said he won't have a big part in the book. I'm sure he'll be front and center in Book 4 though. Curiosity has got me wondering what's his deal anyway?  I agree with you. Monica stinks as a mother which is why I'm glad Victor is coming back because she needs one parent who isn't two dimensional like Monica. I really hope she changes for the better because she's really annoying. I hope victor moves on and stops carrying the flame for her. He will be angry for sure when he finds out everything that happened to Eva.  Monica was all over Eva when she came back about not having her cell phone but I understand why Gideon didn't want any cellphones or computers around to interrupt their cozy getaway weekend. I'm sure the three of them - stanton, monica and gideon were all in communication together. I really wish someone would've kept Eva in the loop but they probably figured she would've panicked when she learned but this is where the krav maga would've come into play because eva would've kicked nathan's butt!!  I agree with you that Eva was clueless that Nathan was in town or that he had blackmail of the photos and video. The poor girl had to find out the hard way at the friday night at dinner that he was in town but was now dead. I still wish she would've had the opportunity to use her krav maga skills on him. When I started reading the book and saw she was taking those classes I had a feeling Nathan would make an appearance and Eva would put those skills to good use!  Hopefully everyone will have a happily ever after in book 5! : )   Â

hi Gayle ~ no info on brett and I'm surprised nobody asked that question either. I was about to but missed the opportunity : (

lots of good questions were asked but I wish I could've remembered some that were talked about on here. next time I have the meet and greet I'm bring a notepad with questions! lol Sylvia said you will see in some of her books there will be characters popping up from her other books. Ex: someone on here said they said Gideon being mentioned in another book. I can't remember at the moment what book that was something with blood for flowers in the title. They only appear in a small paragraph. even something like a building described in one of her books can be mentioned in another book. : )

Hi Kirsten, thank you. that explains a lot. : ( hopefully they will be working again soon.

I wish you were all with me on saturday to share this and I'm so glad I made your weekend!! being on this forum makes my day and makes me laugh. I'm so glad corrine will be gone and victor is coming back, I really want him to move to NYC. I want to learn more about monica and I agree she annoys me. I think we are also going to definitely see more of Ireland who is another favorite of mine. I think Gideon and Ireland will become more closer.

hi peachies : ) I'm still smiling from my time with sylvia. it's fun to share it with all of you. it was the highlight of my weekend and totally made up for not winning anything from a tricky tray I went to on friday night. I'm also glad I took a picture with her as a reminder because it feels like a dream! I didn't want the night to end!! Oh she also brought along Crushing on Cross pins with her so I hope she brings them to her other book signings. Â

I will be doing the happy dance when I read corrine having the door hit her on the way out! you know what jeanmarie, I was so in awe of sitting in the same room as Sylvia that I went blank on asking really good questions....oddly nobody brought that up either after I said it and she didn't mention it either where we could find it. I told her how happy I was that chapter one was coming in May but my brain failed to function on asking where we could find it.  I'm thinking it could be where the snippets & snapshots would be???
