Sylvia just announced on FB that she'll have news to share on Tuesday... I'm guessing she'll announce book 4 in the series.

The adoption process in NY for a step-parent adoption with a deceased biological parent is really nothing. No hassle at all, especially for someone with money. There must be a reason why it wasn't done. IMO of course.

Is it possible Christopher just invites Eva to the party so he can throw it in Gideon's face afterwards? Plus maybe he really believes he has a shot with Eva and he wants to take a chance when she is at a "weak" emotional moment?  I still think Gideon was upfront with Corrine. Telling her that he needed someone to accompany him to events. Corrine will of course think this will lead to something more. She will become desperate in EWY IMO. Saying this though I worry about Eva. It kills her to see Corrine and Gideon together. As much as her relationship with Gideon has grown and they are starting to trust, she is still jealous on some level and seeing him with her constantly is going to sting.  Now... who do we think is going to to be the recipient of Eva's recently aquired Krav Maga skills?  When will Victor reappear?  Will Eva be honest with Cary about his assault and her quiet relationship with Gideon?  What is Christopher Vidal Sr. role in this? Surely he had one. That has to be the reason Gideon now has "CONTROLLING" interest in his company.

It is a long wait, but I appreciate Sylvia posting snippets every couple of weeks.  Sylvia's birthday is Monday March 11th, so make sure you all show her some love on FB or twitter.

I am so up in the air about Corrine. There is no way that Gideon has told her Eva's issues. I think he was upfront with her in regards to his needing a companion to accompany him to events. He probably did tell her that things with Eva weren't working out or they were going through a rough patch and were taking a break. Corrine sees this as an opportunity to be there for Gideon and to remind him of what they had. She will wait however long it takes for him to come around and realize he still has feelings for her. She's spent years in an unhappy marriage trying to forget Gideon. Now I'm sure the papers are in a frezy about them being back together and she probably assumes it's only a matter of time before it is reality.Â

I agree with Gideon will do whatever he has to do to meet his long-term goal which is a life with Eva. Saying that though Eva is a jealous person, she knows the deal, but that doesn't mean it doesn't bother her that Gideon is out with Corrine constantly. Gideon is walking a very tight rope, I think he is aware of that and he needs to know that Eva can give just as bad as she gets. This is obviously where Brett will come in, in EWY... no?

LN Cronan can you just start writing some fan fic on this and I'll follow it. I always love your theories and think that they are right on the money.

You and me both AMC. I also thought it was Megumi and maybe Shawna.

There's a new snippet. Â http://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.sylviaday.com%2F2013%2F02%2F07%2Fentwined-snippet-7%2F&h=DAQFfugV6

I think I saw that tweet. Perhaps Sylvia had a change of heart with Corrine because IMO she was a bit*h to Eva in RIY. Trying to make her jealous even before her little game with Gideon began.

Hi GiGi Spousal privilege would apply. That is the easy answer for this whole mess.

Sylvia had said that he went up to get his meds. It was cut from the first book since it was "insignificant". Little did they realize we would be questioning. Â

I think we are all equally upset about the date change. It is what it is though. You'll get your HEA. Sylvia is a romance writer and has already said they will have their happy ending. She is as invested in these characters as we are, and wants them to work on their issues and find their way together.

 Yes they appear to be hiding still, but how long with that go on for? We know how jealous Eva is, and I understand why it was necessary but the last 35% of RIY killed me with them being apart and Eva seeming so broken. I'm just also wondering if Eva and Gideon will ever talk about him killing Nathan. She knows he's done it, and he knows she knows so if that's as far as it goes, then what could she possibly have to testify to? I guess I am just really hoping their time apart is minimal, and that we can get to the bottom of Gideon's issues.

LN I agree with almost everything you have posted... thanks for confirming some of my thoughts. I think Eva and Gideon are still lawing low, although how the police intend to entrap them is beyond me. Gideon would have to confess to Eva that he killed Nathan and then she would have to be willing to testify. I don't see her being willing to do that. They could threaten her with an obstruction charge, but Richard (nevermind Gideon) is never letting that charge stick. They have money and power, and attorneys on speed dial, those charges would probably be dismissed quick. Â I do think Corrine is going to continue to be a thorn in their side. I would like to believe that Eva is strong enough in her relationship with Gideon to realize that he still doesn't want Corrine, but who knows. My other concern is Brett. We know he's coming back, but for what? Okay I know for what, but how does that play out with Gideon and Eva. Â As far as my comment about the records being unsealed now that Nathan is dead. Yes they are unsealed, but Eva's identity should remain confidential. Most victims of a crime like rape have their identity protected, but when you are a minor that is especially true.Â

I think Monica and Victor have both accepted their lives as they are. I would be surprised if Monica left Richard. He adores her and she needs a man that is rich and powerful. She made that choice years ago and has never turned back.

Sylvia Day I'll have some news to share soon. And the cover for ENTWINED is in the works! I can say that ENTWINED will NOT be released before May, that's a definite at this point. When I have solid information to share, I promise to post it immediately. Sylvia just posted this.

She sleeps, eats and cries. `  Monday:  -Continues to train Will at the office.  - Has lunch with Megumi and Will. After lunch Gideon enters the elevator with them and then tells her to stay when Megumi and Will exit. - In the elevator he gives her back her ring. Tells her to wait again and then exits.  - Eva makes and appointment with Dr. Lucas and asks Cary to check into him.  - She leaves a message for CV Jr.  - Asks Mark if she can come in an hour late tomorrow to take care of an appointment.  - After work she leaves to go home and makes a pit stop for chocolate when she comes out and back around the front of the building she sees Gideon getting into the car with Corrine, he has his hand on the small of her back. They lock gazes and Eva finally gives him the finger.  - Eva calls Monica and asks if she saw Nathan outside the Crossfire that day after lunch with Megumi.  -She returns home, and tells Cary about her day. Cary shows her the transcript of Brett's interview with a radio station in Florida.  Tuesday:  -Has Angus bring her to Corrine's. After waiting in the lobby 20 minutes she goes up and Corrine makes it look like she has someone with her. Eva's got her number, thank goodness.  - She leaves Corrine's and heads to Dr. Lucas' against Angus' better judgment. She confronts him.  - Gideon is waiting for her as she exits his office and Gideon warns him to stay away from Eva.  -Gideon gets her in elevator and starts kissing her. Tells her a few words can't end them, there is no end. He asks her to trust him, she tells him not when he doesn't talk to her.  - Gideon has Raul and Angus ride together so he can drive with Eva and talk. They talk about his abuse and Eva tells him she is going to marry him. He tries to explain why they are apart. Says that he had an opportunity and took it and this time apart is the price that needs to be paid. Tells her his silence is the lesser of two evils. Feels like whether he explains or not he'll drive her away. But explaining carries the greatest risk. He is obviously referring to killing Nathan. This makes me believe in the end that when he is on his knees before Eva he is really not sure what her reaction is going to be to the fact that he killed Nathan.  - Gideon tells a stunned Eva in the car that he loves her, not once but twice.  - Gideon tells Eva he is coming back to her as soon as he can and reminds her to wait.  - Eva has lunch with CV but only finds out how jealous he is of Gideon.  - Security escorts Eva to their office to meet with Gideon as she comes back to the building. He asks her about harassing CV Jr.. Eva and Gideon talk about how good it feels to trust each other.  - Gideon kisses her sweetly and tells her he loves her.  - This is where he tells her the night she had the nightmare and he had just gotten back to her place after cleaning out his " Pad" at the hotel.  - Eva picks up sparkling apple cider on the way home and her and Cary have an action movie marathon while eating pizza with chopsticks and Chinese food with their fingers.  Wednesday:  -Eva goes to Krav Maga.  - Detective Graves sees her there and tells Eva her theory.  -Admits that Gideon was in the police station when Eva called that Saturday and broke up with him.  - Eva goes to Gideon's and waits for him and then tells him Detective Graves says they are dropping the case.  The End.

  When Corrine looks over her shoulder, I think it's to give Eva the impression that Gideon is there. If I were to be honest when I read it I thought Christopher was behind the door. Corrine wants to keep planting a seed of doubt in Eva's mind. Gideon either overshared with Corrine (although I can't even imagine Gideon oversharing) or Corrine just got the vibe from Eva and Gideon disappearing during the Waldorf fundraiser, and then them holding hands throughout dinner, and then Gideon eventually leaving to chase after Eva, that she is the jealous type.  So just like the day she was walking out of the Crossfire looking all mussed up, it was fake to play on Eva's insecurities.

Okay, so maybe it will come out that Nathan was at the office that day when Gideon and Eva talk about Nathan. I have to look at the sealing process. Since Eva was a minor I am not sure that her name would be listed there. She might just be listed as a "complainant". I'm sure Victor is smart enough to put two and two together though. I am sure both Corrine and Christopher are opportunists. They will do whatever necessary to get what they want. That Krav Maga will come in handy at some point I am sure. I don't think it was odd that Christopher met Eva for lunch. She called and asked him to meet, and he wants what Gideon wants. Sylvia has already said that Eva and Gideon are not ready to have babies, so I doubt we will have a pregnancy.
