  1. Good morning everyone I have just read the responses to my Victor and Monica subplot. Her first husband was content with just Nathan and Eva. We do not know much about the second husband except he gambled a lot. Monica has been described as a "trophy wife" for Stanton which can often be "arm candy". Also Stanton is much older and there is no information about his life before Monica but he does not seem to have any children. Just a thought, maybe he is gay. Once Eva marries Gideon, Monica will not have to worry about money for Eva or herself. I think Monica and Victory with a second child after their second meeting in twenty-five years is too delicious not to think about. In other words a second chance for Eva's parents is the second ultimate happy ending in this series and very romantic. Fellow Crossfire fans, have fun with my thoughts! PS Stanton hiding that he is gay would not be unheard of for a man of his generation and social position.
  2. How about Theo James as Cary Taylor?
  3. There are going to be five books. Should the television series present all five books in one season or should Eva's and Gideon's story be spread out over more then one season?
  4. Monica is very busy trying to meet Gideon's requirement for a quick wedding. Â She is very stressed by the pressure but she succeeds. Â At the reception, she faints from exhaustion.....she thinks but she is pregnant. Â Baby daddy is Victor!! Â Â REMINDER Â Monica and Victor got together at Eva's apartment. Â This was their second meeting after not seeing each other for 25 years. Â Victor had returned to New York when he learned Eva had been abused by her stepbrother. Â The love Victor and Monica felt for each other was obvious. Â Most important, Monica is less then twenty years older then Eva. Â Her age would be 43 or younger.
  5. Â First model of Bentley SUV is a 2015 production model. Â Hopefully it will come out in 2014. Â The series has to have one!!!!
  6. Sylvia's comments on Henry Cavill as Gideon Henry Cavill looking like Gideon Cross We know that there's news of a television series based on the Crossfire series. What is it about Henry Cavill that makes you think he would make a great Gideon? Most importantly, he’s the right age. Choosing an actor who isn’t yet thirty is very important to me. Also, Henry is beautiful. Who doesn’t love looking at him? He also conveys vulnerability and longing very well. In the last season of The Tudors, when Brandon fell in love with Brigitte, Henry was stunning in his display of yearning and hopelessness, and love. That said, I’ve been talking with the producers about the story and their plans for the show, and I trust that they’ll find the perfect Gideon. They’re big fans of Gideon and Eva, and they’re paying attention to what the readers want and what I want and what will do justice to the story. I’m thrilled to be working with Lionsgate on Crossfire and I’m excited about their vision for the series — which is my vision in living color — coming to fruition.
  7. I posted the message reprinted below under the "Music" topic.  People there seem to like it!    I have found one more song!  The first verse of "Black is the Color of My True Love's Hair" by Nina Simone.  I think of the second chapter of "Entwined With Me" when Eva wakes up next to a sleeping Gideon and she brushes his hair from his face   Black is the color of my true love's hair His face so soft and wondrous fair The purest eyes and the strongest hands I love the ground on where he stands Black is the color of my true love's hair Of my true love's hair Oh, I love my lover and well he knows Yes, I love the ground on where he goes And still I hope that the time will come When he and I will be as one Black is the color of my true love's hair
  8. Dialogue that must be included    Gideon leaves Corinne to go after Eva; after he punches Ian in the nose and follows Eva to the shower she tells him to go home and he says "I am home!  I'm with you!"
  9. Has anyone looked at Tom Mison from the TV show "Sleepy Hollow"?  I tried to load his image but could not so here is his address  http://rrrgood-looking.tumblr.com
  10. Today I am adding "Misery" by Maroon 5 to describe Cary's relationship with Trey. Â I also like "Treasure" by Bruno Mar for Gideon to use to describe Eva in the first chapter of "Bared to You" when he tells her "We're going to happen, Eva."
  11. I have several music suggestions posted under the "Music" topic.  I will copy them to this topic site as well.  Today I am adding "Misery" by Maroon 5 to describe Cary's relationship with Trey.  I also like "Treasure" by Bruno Mar for Gideon to use to describe Eva in the first chapter of "Bared to You" when he tells her "We're going to happen, Eva."  Treasure  Give me all, give me all, give me all attention baby I got to tell you a little something about yourself You're wonderful, flawless, ooh you're a sexy lady But you walk around here like you wanna be someone else Ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh I know that you don't know it, but you're fine, so fine (fine, so fine) Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhh Oh girl I'm gonna show you when you're mine, oh mine(mine, oh mine) Treasure, that is what you are Honey you're my golden star I know you could make my wish come true If you let me treasure you If you let me treasure you oh oooooh Pretty girl, pretty girl, pretty girl you should be smiling A girl like you should never look so blue You're everything I see in my dreams I wouldn't say that to you if it wasn't true Oooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh I know that you don't know it, but you're fine, so fine (fine, so fine) Ooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh Oh girl I'm gonna show you when you're mine, oh mine(mine, oh mine) Treasure, that is what you are Honey you're my golden star I know you could make my wish come true If you let me treasure you If you let me treasure you You are my treasure, you are my treasure You are my treasure, yeah, you you you, you are You are my treasure, you are my treasure You are my treasure, yeah, you you you, you are Treasure, that is what you are Honey you're my golden star I know you can make my wish come true If you let me treasure you If you let me treasure you
  12. I wanted Cavill for Christian Grey and for Gideon.  Did you see Henry in The Tudors on Showtime?  He could so play Gideon!!!  Last I heard He is playing Napoleon Solo in a movie version of The Man from U.N.C.L.E.   Our lost  PS Henry is 6'1"
  13. On August 5, 2013, Lionsgate acquired the television rights for Sylvia Day's Crossfire Series.  While picking the actors who play the characters may be a pipe dream as was demonstrated by the casting of Fifty Shades Of Grey, we fans can use this forum to express our preferences for many other things.  I would hope that we could receive consideration for "fan favorite" scenes, dialogues and concepts as well as music, my personal favorite.  We know, I hope, that  Sylvia will write her story of Gideon and Eva no matter how many suggestions we list for the last two books on this forum.  But we also know some of us will see our choices from her books portrayed in the television series.  Since the publication date for Captivated by You has not been released as of today, we can fill our time by making suggestions from the first three books for now.  I do not want to be a party pooper so do feel free to post your personal choices for actors to play any character you like.  Have Fun!!!!  PS For actors, remember Gideon is 6' 2" so hopefully your picks will be at least 6'.

  15. This song is by Corinne Bailey Rae.  I really like it for Eva because of the line "Still I wonder why it is, I don't argue like this with anyone but you.  We do it all the time, blowing out my mind".  I think it would work when Eva leaves Gideon at the gala where she first meets Corinne and Dr. Terrence Lucas.  It would be in her head while she is on her way home alone.  And maybe again at the end of chapter 21 in "Bared to You" when Eva says "Hello Mr. Comfortable.  I'm Miss. Complicated."  It would probably work in other places too.   "Like A Star" Just like a star across my sky, Just like an angel off the page, You have appeared to my life, Feel like I'll never be the same, Just like a song in my heart, Just like oil on my hands, Honour to love you Still I wonder why it is, I don't argue like this, With anyone but you, We do it all the time, Blowing out my mind, You've got this look I can't describe, You make me feel like I'm alive, When everything else is au fait, Without a doubt you're on my side, Heaven has been away too long, Can't find the words to write this song, Oh... Your love, Still I wonder why it is, I don't argue like this, With anyone but you, We do it all the time, Blowing out my mind, Now I have come to understand, The way it is, It's not a secret anymore, 'cause we've been through that before, From tonight I know that you're the only one, I've been confused and in the dark, Now I understand, I wonder why it is, I don't argue like this, With anyone but you, I wonder why it is, I wont let my guard down, For anyone but you We do it all the time, Blowing out my mind, Just like a star across my sky, Just like an angel off the page, You have appeared to my life, Feel like I'll never be the same, Just like a song in my heart, Just like oil on my hands
  16. Sylvia Day mentions Eva and Cary are listening to "Chasing Pavements" in the first chapter of "Bared to You". Â I think "One and Only" also by Adele would be great in background when Eva reads the prenuptial and realizes what Gideon is offering and saying to her with the document. Â One and Only is also a great, recurring background theme for the sturggles in their relationship.
  17.

  18. Hi Nathalia  Love your song choice (This is What It Feels Like)!!  Just listened to it.  I particularly liked the reference to "ringing my phone", "the shore" and "frames (picture frames).Â
  19. The cathedral could be The Cathedral Church of St John the Devine if you want size. Â I think Eva and Gideon would prefer their wedding be held at United Nations Chapel also known as the Church Center for the UN. Â It is small so only close friends and family would attend the ceremony. Â The Pierre on 61st Street and Fifth Avenue is the only only place the for the reception. Â Better than The Waldorf or The Plaza.
  20. Thanks for the welcome Gigi!! Â I also like "Stay" by Rihanna but I have not figured out where to use it in the storyline. Â Maybe it would work when he turns away from her in the limo and then for him when she walks away once they get inside at the Advocacy Benefit. Â I like a song called "The Look of Love", recently done by Dianna Krall for dancing at their wedding reception "The Look Of Love" The look of love is in your eyes A look your smile can't disguise The look of love is saying so much more than just words could ever say And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you How long I have waited Waited just to love you, now that I have found you You've got the Look of love, it's on your face A look that time can't erase Be mine tonight, let this be just the start of so many nights like this Let's take a lover's vow and then seal it with a kiss I can hardly wait to hold you, feel my arms around you How long I have waited Waited just to love you, now that I have found you Don't ever go Don't ever go I love you so
  21. Gideon waiting in the car the Monday Eva walks to work to check her time "Haven't Met You Yet" by Michael Bubl'e  on the way to NC "Pocket of Sunshine" (take me away) by Bedingfield  for Corinne when she realizes she has lost Gideon "I'm Not That Girl" from Wicked  for Brett when he finally realizes Eva is gone "When I Was Your Man" by Bruno Mars
