Thank you for your compliments, very sweet of you. I don't know if you disgussed this before, but I've been thinking of Eva and Victor. Eva is blond, and looks like her mother. Victor is latino.... Dark hair dominates over blond hair.... Someone else who's been thinking of the same?? Can we be sure that V is Evas father?

Thank you for your positive feedback, that means a lot to me.

Yes, it shows great trust. I get why he needs to take control, with his traumas in mind. When he's got little experience of being "dominated" in a positive way (non abusive), it will be overwhelming with Eva when he learns how good it can be. And that must be intense for him with so many mixed feelings. He also said that he should have let Eva go, mainly because he's a wreck and can't cover all her needs. He doesn't see himself as any boyfriend material. By that he doesn't deserve as much pleasure, I meant that many victims struggles with their self esteem, and the shame overshadows the feeling of being worthy love and pleasure. It's difficult to enjoy the intimacy and closeness when they are disgusted with their own body, mind/ memories, therefore it's easier to focus on their partner. I've hardly practiced my English in years, so bear over with me haha, sometimes it's hard to express myself correctly. I LOVE Crossfire so badly, and I'm so happy to see that I'm not alone craving for it

Thank you for clearing that up :)

Interesting comments and I share many of your thoughts D500 If he associate anger with s*x, his reaction towards Eva (when he overheard Eva and Chris Sr) is quite normal/ following his own pattern?! He also refers that he wants to punish Eva... To control /express his emotions he has to do something physically, like s*x and MMA. According to him being more aware of her in bed than himself, it could be that he feels he doesn't deserve it as much? When Eva takes control, it almost seems overwhelming for him?! Maybe he's experience is based on being the giver rather the receiver. For example he said that before Eva he took girls to the fu**pad that were preying on him (can't remember literally) so he could dominante them instead... That would give him a psychological satisfaction, and perhaps more than sexually!? Not sure I made ant sense with what I just wrote lol I completely agree with you that Sylvia is an amazing author! Like I tell my friends, there's a lot more to the books than the erotic parts. I have several books of Sylvia Day, although Crossfire series is my all-time favorite (have them both in Norwegian and English).

Gideon: Henry Cavill (with his magic blue eyes ðŸ˜) http://thehollywoodbillboard.com/henry-cavill/ Eva: Julianne Hough Cary: Alex Pettyfer (I somehow pictured Jeff Stearns while reading the first book, but his to old, but Pettyfer is kind of a look a like) Monica: Michelle Pfeiffer Stanton: Ted Danson Victor: Benjamin Bratt Christopher Sr: out of the blue, could Kevin Costner pull that off? Elizabeth: Courtney Cox or Demi Moore Christopher Jr: Ryan Gosling is gorgeous, but for me he seems to near Gideons age. Max Irons is younger, and looks more of a badass! Ireland: Corinne: Mila Kunis Brett: Cam Gigadent (bartender from Burlesque), Adam Levine is toooooo old for Eva Magdalena: Parker: Shawna: Mark: Steven:

Totally agree!!! Loved Gideons POV, could have read even more of his interesting mind â¤ï¸

Spot on Aften reading these books I'm wandering around in a Gideon universe.... It takes many days to break out of, and I feel kind of heartbroken and I miss reading more... Have to remind myself that he's not 4real haha. It's quite an intense reading experience (and don't want it to end after no.5) so thank you for this forum!! My favourite part (like so many of you) is the confrontation between G and Chris sr, and at the karaoke night (Gideon's got Jason Wades voice, hoarse&sexy). G's song said so much, that no one else than Eva understood the total meaning of. So romantic â¤ï¸ and at the same time heartbreaking. He's struggling so hard to express his emotions (except when he can hit someone), but manage to do so throughout "hanging by a moment". The feeling of being rejected when he needed the most to be seen, is devastating. He might at some point reconciled that he could never truly show his true self. If his own mother couldn't handle /believe him, why should anyone else? Then Eva comes along and stirs the foundation he's been building up to protect himself. I get the addiction he gets (as well as she) towards Eva, he sees another world he thought didn't excists for him...(or didn't allowed) A possibility to be loved and accepted. So I can see that he's "desperate for changing -starving for truth". Most people knows him professionally (or superficial) and therefore might see him as the complete package. He must have worked so hard to compensate for his flaws (emotionally) and lacks (all that anger must give him heaps of energy, otherwise I can't understand how he's capable to standing up lol) He's willing to let go of every defence just to be with the love of his life (that he finally found), even though he's headed into unknown territory. Instead of running away all the time, she should be more supportive of her husband. It's difficult for him to let of the control. Control is what's kept him safe throug out the years, it's impossible let go of that over night. She should work harder on her own issues, and stop running (and stop giving G more traumas). She must go easier on him... And hope she can do so in the 5th book. It would be interesting to learn about Angus POV... He's one of few people who's been predictable in G's life.

I thought that Eva knew??? Or did she just add that up in her own mind when she found out about Nathans death from the detective?

If Anne is Corrines therapist. Do you think she's pushing Corrine towards Gideon by manipulating her, even presenting some kind of conspiracy theories? If Anne wants revenge, is she willing to use her patients for it?

I feel the same say about Detective Graves. I hope Gideon is right when he tries to reassure Eva after she met the Detective at the gym. I don't understand what the purpose is, to calm Eva down or is it a hidden threat? I'm not sure if we have seen the last of her yet... On the other hand, Clancy is looking out for Eva and have her best interests in mind, (and an arrest of Gideon would certainly hurt her) don't you think he has done his job properly when he took care of that russian mob? Correct me If I'm wrong, but haven't Clancy (with og without his brother in FBI?) been at the crime scene after Gidon killed Nathan? What do you all think? Best wishes for the holidays to all of you

Hi, new member, and I hope you don't mind me joining you I think Eva really overreacted when she left Gideon... Poor guy, after all that he's done for her (she might not know all of it, but she certainly knows about Nathan). I got so angry. I get that she wanted to make a point, but she forgets that she once has been where Gideon is. She knows what he's processing and how hard that is, and that it takes time. He has done so many huge changes for her and himself in a very short time.... I think she pushes to hard. I hope he confronts his mother in the next book, her behavior is unforgivable. Do you think Evas Krav Maga lessons will come in handy? Perhaps she'll have an unpleasant meeting with Anne?
