When I started reading the Crossfire Series, I decided to write down a list of all the song's mentioned in each one of the books and I made a playlist out of them on Youtube. Someone has already done this to an extent before but there were songs missing. Anyway here is the list of songs mentioned in all of the Crossfire books along with the link to the playlist:
1. Chasing Pavements-Adele
2. Come Fly With Me-Frank Sinatra
3. What A Wonderful World-Louis Armstrong
4. Mercy-Duffy
5. Rehab-Amy Winehouse
6. Without You-Hinder
7. Sexyback-Justin Timberlake
8. Hanging By A Moment-Lifehouse
9. Brave-Sara Bareilles
10. Ave Maria-Barbara Bonney
11. Collide-Howie Day
12. Possession-Sarah McLachlan
13. Golden-Six Ninths
14. I've Got You Babe-Sonny and Cher
15. Only The Good Die Young- Billy Joel
16. (I've Had) The Time Of My Life
17. Diamonds-Rhianna
18. Uptown Girl-Billy Joel
19. At Last-Etta James
20. At Last-Beyonce

Unlike some of Sylvia's stories that are told from the main characters, this one here starts out being told from someone who was more of a observer. Sort of like Nick from The Great Gatsby. I guess we'll eventually find out what it's about but it's kind of confusing where she's going with this story.

First of all, I am a fan of Sylvia Day's, and one of the things I think you need in order to be true fan of anybody's is to disagree with them every once in a while. That being said, I've noticed in several of Sylvia's books that there have been female character's telling the male characters "no" while he continues to pin them down (usually on the floor) as they are trying to get away. The reason's are usually brought on by her just being stubborn when it's clear that she wants him. This might seem romantic to some but to me it's no different to rape. This usually takes place in her historical books and I recall one (can't remember which book) where one of the male character's pins the female character on the floor although she fights and tells him no then after that when he talks to her and asks her if she wants to have sex with him, her response is "Do I have a choice"? I'm concerned about this because I heard before that a certain percentage of erotic romance reader's are men who are trying to figure out what women likes romantically. So if they read books where a girl is clawing across the floor with a guy holding her down and back while he starts kissing and fondling her, what does that say to the men looking for advice through these books?

I don't think that Ireland finding out her brother had been raped is ever going to happen, but I can only imagine how she would react if she ever found out about it. Did anyone else think this when they were reading the books? She doesn't really even seem to ask why Gideon hardly comes around to begin with.
What Sylvia Day story would you like to see get made into a movie?

Aside from the Crossfire series (since that's the one everyone keeps waiting to happen anyway) what other stories of Sylvia Day would you like to see be made into a movie or TV series? For me I think Seven Years to Sin or In the Flesh would be good movies.
I also think Passionflix does pretty good with turning short stories into 15 minute films so maybe them doing Magic and Mayhem, Iron Hard and A Caress of Wings would be good as short films too. What do you think? Is there a Sylvia Day book you'd like to see get made for the big or small screen and if so what are they?
