Did anybody see the frozen fountain in NYC Bryant Park? It can be found on The Today Show's Twitter on Monday.

Just reread Chapter One OWY now at the bottom said to check back often for the next scene in Chapter One - coming soon. Woo hoo!! Can't wait.

I really like your theory (guess) it makes sense that that would be how Nathan's bracelet was found on the dead guy. I think Gideon was smart enough to go through the back door/staff entrance, he always made sure all of the tracks were covered.

Thank you for your thoughts. I do wonder how Clancy found out (was he following Gideon). I hope he does tell Dr. Peterson about is sexual history so he can finally be at peace. We will know the answers to everything else when we read OWY.

I agree, so I wonder if Chapter Two will be from Excerpt 2 the one from Gideon's POV (posted 6/15/2015). What do you think? Why do you think that this book is to be mostly about Gideon, did I miss something that was previously mentioned?

Sylvia posted more of Chapter one for OWY. If you read this Sylvia Thank You Thank You Thank You I knew you would come through and make me happy! I can't wait for April 5th!

I saw those tweets also and am in full agreement that Cary should have told Eva especially since they are BFF's how good of a BFF is he? Not a very good one in my opinion. I don't think Anne knew of the abuse and I don't think Gideon would tell her, unless maybe Eva tells her when she confronts her hmmm what do you think? Eva is already "preparing" to confront Corrine in Chapter One of OWY I think that is the beginning of Eva helping Gideon with his past. Sylvia will be on her cruise and if I remember correctly she returns on the 15th, but I think we will see something on the 14th only because it's Valentine's Day so I'm hoping for a little treat (my fingers are crossed).

I also agree with you about Christian and Ana I found it to be a beautiful love story my heart went out to Christian because of his past abuse and not knowing how to have a real (fictional characters) relationship. In CBY I agree he didn't want to hurt her that's why he wanted her gone from the penthouse and because of her love for him she wouldn't leave him in that state but he I think gave her the alcohol because if I remember correctly he needed her to calm down.

On the plane ride he told her being bound helps you surrender, but it doesn't have to be literal. It just has to be enough to get you in the right head space. They were on her wrists not tied to anything and he had her reach and grab the sides of the pillow and had her close her eyes he didn't cover them with anything like in FSOG. I think what you said does makes sense.

I thought Gideon was talking about himself also, not about women using him but about his abuse. Especially because of Eva's thoughts about "he spoke as if from experience. What exactly had been done to him." I could be wrong though.

I will be rereading all of them again before OWY is released, I actually finished BTY today. However when I read RIY my emotions are all over the place and I get very anxious even though I know what happens because I have read them all at least 4-5 times already. I don't know the anything about the Blacklist books maybe I'll research them. I believe in OWY Corrine will be the first stressor that will be dealt with then I hope it is the abuse that we finally get answers to.

I agree I don't think it can be a short paragraph or chapter about their childhood. D500 you have a lot of control to read one chapter a day I certainly can not do that haha I have to read until I can't see anymore. I just reread the chapter when Gideon arrives at his club to see Eva in BTY because of the tweet about the stoli and cranberry.

I believe both Gideon and Christopher were abused, and if I remember correctly Gideon had mentioned that Christopher use to act out (while Elizabeth was pregnant with Ireland) because Gideon was getting all of the attention which was due to his father's suicide. It mentioned briefly that Hugh had pictures of long haired brunette women in magazines that he had Gideon look at during the abuse, I think this is why Gideon had relationships with women who look like Corrine except for Anne of course.

What about the part where Chris went to Gideon's penthouse and apologized for not knowing about the abuse and that he would have done something about it back when it happened? He did say that he went to Dr. Lucas' office and decked him knocking him out cold. After reading it again I don't think Chris knew unless he's a good actor.

You are correct again thank you. I hope so too, but I'm thinking it will be Valentine's Day.

I reread the the chapter for the wedding and you are right it was just her engagement ring. I just thought it was strange for her to purchase his ring and put it in the zippered portion of her purse haha.

I didn't think of that only because she said she unzipped the pocket inside her purse (where she had put her rings when she got to work so no one would see them) and since she just bought it I didn't think she would put it in the inside pocket, but you could be right.

I think Eva's engagement ring is a set because in EWY after she shopped for Gideon's ring (the one with the rubies) and she went to his office to give it to him she stopped outside his office and she said she unzipped the small pocket and drew out the "rings" inside it. I could be wrong but that's how I'm thinking of it.

And what a beautiful wedding it was!! Perfect for them!!

In the teaser Gideon could still be talking about the wedding maybe she had met with Monica and when Eva got home she was discussing Monica's plans for the wedding with Gideon and he was giving his opinion to ease her mind.

I love Tuesday teasers!!! Thank you Sylvia!

I agree plus they never said his last name. I wonder as well about Monica's secrets and Nathan's background. There are a few unanswered problems, I can't wait until April. I'll be rereading all of them again so when OWY comes out I can flow right into it.

jmhope: Thank you for starting a new topic. I enjoy reading these. I Think it will be Cary as the man-of-honor and Ireland, I think Megumi and Shawna will not be in the wedding party but will be attending the wedding and reception. As for Gideon's best man I really think it will be Angus (even though he stood up for him already) and and the groomsman Arash. Arnoldo does not like Eva but I think will attend both the wedding and reception as well as Manual. I hope if Christopher and Elizabeth go to the wedding neither one of them cause a scene. Eva would kick them out haha. It is way too soon for them to have children, maybe in the Epilogue she could become pregnant and have children. I can not wait for more from Chapter One. Hurry up April!!

Thank you Sylvia Happy New Year!! ????????????

I'm sorry I don't remember. If I do find it I'll let you know.
