Thanks again for the link Kristen. I know Sylvia says she is going to take the Crossfire series to 5 books. Personally I would love for her to just keep on writing, I don't want their story to end!  Trust me I'm SO happy she isn't stopping at 3 !!! I just wish we didn't have to wait soooo long between books but at least we have this amazing forum to help get us through.

Another mode of transportation!!!

 

Exactly! One of these days they are going to have to take advantage of the control he has over his elevators and her preference to modes of transportation. 

It was sweet how he literally dropped the phone. The fact Eva was crying and her face showed something terrible had just happened mattered far more than Corrine crying. Eva was everything to him -- Corrine was trying to manipulate him.

 

Boy did THAT make up for the Disaster at the Dinner Table (the night Eva and Corrine met.)

 

P.S. Shan, I love, love, love your "Gideon Cross rides this elevator" avatar!! It's a hoot!!!

 

 

Thanks, Wouldn't we all LOVE to go for a ride in the elevator with Gideon..... 

Maybe they will use that archway  for a swing or two

 

 

LOL, We know Gideon would love to get Eva on a certain swing.......

What is she going to say about the separation.? Since she can't go into details why he pulled away from her.!?

 

 

I thought about that too. Gideon knew how crazy obsessed Nathan was with Ava after Nathan showed up at his office. Then when he realized it was Nathan that beat the He11 out of Cary and said some thing along the line as Keep your hands off of her. Cary assumed it was because he was messing around with someone else's woman. But Gideon figured out it was Nathan and knew how crazy Nathan was. So Gideon didn't want to aggravate Nathan and cause him to escalate his aggression towards Ava, he felt he would distance himself from her to protect her from Nathan until Nathan was arrested. He can say something like that. 

Corrine put herself in that position, if Gideon told her he had someone special, why come to NY and risk him not attending to you the way you want.?

I feel bad for her hubby tho he's stuck in the middle of his wife's mischief behavior..!! And the sad part is He Loves Her..!!

 

Mrs. Crossfire I totally agree. I agree Corrine knew he was serious about Eva, she admitted that to Ava the night she met her. But Corrine chose to come all the way back to NY just to come between them and try to get him back.  Corrine is a manipulating woman, and completely self centered. She apparently doesn't care about anyone else's feelings other than her own. First, she knows Gideon is serous about Eva and that Eva is in love with Gideon. But it doesn't matter how they feel about each other or that they make each happy. Corrine only thinks about getting what she wants. And if she couldn't get Gideon to take their relationship to the next level years earlier what makes her think she can take him away from Eva? He told Corrine Eva is getting me to open up, he hadn't ever opened up with her, that is HUGE! Also Gideon feels bad because he says he lead her on with his actions. The person we should feel bad for is JFG, I think the only reason she married him was because she was hoping Gideon would come after her. That shows how manipulative and self centered she is. Do we know, Did Corrine break off her engagement with Gideon to be with JFG? 

Page 140, Gideon on his cell phone talking to a crying Corrine, trying to yet again explain they're friends but he can't give her what she wants ... Eva walks in on the conversation, in tears because she'd just finished talking on the phone to her father about Nathan ... just before Gideon noticed Eva standing there and immediately ending the Corrine call ...

 

"Stop," he said icily. "This isn't the tack you want to take with me, Corrine."

 

The word "icy" I immediately associated with Elizabeth Vidal, how icy Gideon was with his mother (and when talking about her too). I wondered to myself then whether Corrine had started playing the family card, and that's when Gideon chilled.

 

That was my first red flag that Corrine had reconnected with the Vidals -- and that both she and Elizabeth got into some weird codependent dynamic of trying to join forces so that both of them could get Gideon back in their own way -- Elizabeth get back the son she lost and Corrine get back the lost love of her life.

 

 

Excellent observation LN,  you are so good at reading between the lines. I loved this particular part of the book because we see (and so does Eva) without a doubt how Eva comes first. He drops everything to take care of her....I love it!  

I had the same thought, also. It's like he wants her as far away from him as possible. He doesn't walk in his sleep. And she's seen him act out with his nightmares.

Maybe it will get resolved and they can use that extra bedroom as a nursery. Happy thoughts!

 

LOVE this idea!! 

I blame no one for Corrine's actions but Corrine..!!

 

 

I couldn't agree more!  Gideon was upfront with Corrine from the beginning.  Also Ava reminded her of this when she went to see her at her apartment. I doubt Gideon kissed her or showed any physical affection other than the little bit when they were being photographed together. 

I am also confused by Elizabeth. I have been confused by her since the freakin garden party. Between the way she went on about Eva's blonde hair and then her and Gideon with their exchange about Cary, I just don't know. I don't think they are close, but I feel like we don't know enough about Gideon for me to make these assumptions. Hopefully in book 4 and 5 we will learn much, much more.

 

I agree, hopefully we will have some answers to our questions in book 4.... Gideon has had some CRAZY women in his life, his mother, Corinne, Anne Lucas, Deanna and who knows how many other whack jobs are going to come out when they realize he is engaged. 

Hi Shan, 

Welcome to the forum.  I hope you enjoy yourself.

Thank you so much for posting the link to Sylvia Day's interview!!  I just hope they get book 4 out sooner rather than later!

Plus she spouting that BS to Corrine's parents. I understood Gideon wanting to get Eva out of there I just wish he would have spoken to her about it, not sent Angus in to get her.

 

I was frustrated with Gideon the way he handled the situation at the hospital. I was shocked when Angus showed up and said Gideon texted him. I'm wondering when he sent the text? Angus seemed to arrive pretty quickly, so do you think Gideon sent the text before they arrived at the hospital? Maybe he didn't really want Eva going but didn't know how to tell her.  Also after he left the hospital and found Deanna waiting for him. Was she at his penthouse or Eva's apartment? 

Hi Ladies,

 

Well, this is my first post, finally!  I have been reading and thoroughly enjoying all your posts for months. Honestly this forum is what got me through the longggg wait for EWY, So thank you for that!  My husband is SOOO tired of hearing about Gideon, I think he might be a little jealous, LOL. Anyway I just wanted to say thank you and I appreciate all your thoughts, suggestions, dissections and theories!
