Description

From 1 New York Times bestselling author Sylvia Day comes the first novel in the Crossfire series—a provocative masterstroke of abandon and obsession that redefined the meaning of desire, and became a global phenomenon. Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness... He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily... Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other’s most private wounds...and desires. The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn’t tear us apart... Read more

  • You've Been Warned! No Matter How Much Hype/Pop...
I was going to edit this to tone down the snark factor, but it still felt right the next day, so I am keeping it. Edited for additional info/warnings about the storyline. 5 stars. This book was no less than amazing~ But first a PSA then the rave :) Highly recommended for fans of Fifty as it reads like an homage to the best of that series except it is very well written. Note to those who hate erotica, are disgusted by the Fifty series, think Fifty was a psychopath because he was possessive, controlling or sexually dominant and/or those who could not embrace the lead characters in that series because they both had "issues" and you felt that sent a bad message or they just irritated you or you found yourself badmouthing them for one reason or another: Please do not read this book! Because: You will likely find all kinds of things to dislike about this book as well and will likely trash it in your reviews also. So again, I would like to encourage you not to read it in the first place (really tempted to add the word, "duh" here). Even if this book becomes sooooo popular that you feel "compelled" to read it because of the "hype". Even then. Don't do it. Trust me. I know, I know... it's burning its way up the Amazon charts as we speak. But stay calm. Control yourself. Don't let your twitchy finger hit that one-click just yet! You know, I'm trying to help you avoid that thing you did with Fifty when you read it and HATED it- exactly the way you knew you were going to when you read the other reviews that described, in detail, all the kinds of things you would hate about it ahead of time... before you read it... in advance. You know(?), right before you proceeded to read the book anyway then wrote a four hundred word diatribe regarding all the things you disliked about it. So let me be clear: My warning is for the readers who made the decision to read the Fifty series based on 5-star reviews and popularity who moved out of their genre, taste or reading level to do that. Then trashed it. Trashing a book because it is out of your taste range and deals with subject matter you would normally find toxic or unappealing seems like redonk behavior to me. ******************************************************** Okay, that said, let's move on the raving portion of our program :) As I mentioned, Bared to You is an amazing read. It's emotionally gripping and very sensual. It is clearly a nod to Fifty and distills that series (which was hugely flawed as it was written by an amateur, neophyte author) and re-works it into a polished, well-paced, engaging story with a similar, but unique storyline. The writing here is excellent. Not because it's poetic or lush, but because it is clean and efficient and didn't get in my way, ever. The story and characters are the stars of the show. They are riveting. The narrative is about two very flawed, emotionally scarred people, both victims of childhood sexual abuse, and explores their process of working out the emotional and relational "issues" that arise as they participate in this highly-intense, sexual relationship with one another. The characters feel co-dependent at times and things often feel dysfunctional. It's totally appropriate to the material, but things are rather dramatic and charged as this couple work toward their very tentative and at-risk HEA (or rather, their HFN as we await the sequel). Both characters are so well-drawn I was rooting for both of them from jump street. If you need your characters to be good boys and girls, to remain emotionally stable throughout the narrative and to never pose a risk to the other at any time or ever engage in unstable behavior, stay away. *spoiler-ish comments below, but only mildly so and may be important for you to know in advance* If a bit of stalker-ish behavior, obsessive behavior, grabbing, shaking or carrying off another person or one giving the other a mighty slap once is gonna make you bonkers, leave it on the shelf. That said, the characters do not tie each other up (he may tell her to hold onto something and not let go a few times, but he never binds her) and they do not physically punish one another (well, except the mighty slap). They also know that they need therapy/intervention to get through their turmoil as a couple and individually as survivors of abuse and they get that. *end spoilers* However, once again, if there is anything beyond a repetition of words and poorly constructed sentences and inner goddesses that you did not love about the Fifty series, then stay the hell away from this one. Just sayin'. Can't wait for the next book! ... show more

  • Good read but too similar to 50 Shades
Let me start off by saying that I enjoyed reading this book...actually never put it down after I picked it up and read it from cover to cover within a few hours. The good stuff: Bared to You took the time to develop the characters and they are far more likeable than the characters in 50 Shades. The heroine though emotionally damaged is strong, instead of the weak/pathetic way some books portray these women. If you're like me and found Ana (50 Shades) to be quite annoying, then you'll like Eva in Bared to You. The other characters in Bared to You are developed and interesting...honestly, I can't remember most of the other characters from 50 Shades. The writing in Bared to You is far better than 50 Shades. While I enjoyed 50 Shades for what it was, sometimes getting through the bad writing was tough. The not so good stuff: Unlike 50 Shades which made the D/s aspect part of the book from go, Bared to You didn't even hint at it until damn near the end of the book, then never mentioned it again (guess this means I have to read book 2). I bought this book because it was recommended for readers who liked the D/s nature of 50 Shades - if that's what you're looking for, skip this one! The sex scenes at first were ok, then it got kind of stupid and I started skipping them. Maybe the scenes would have been hotter if they DID NOT SPEAK. Stupid lines from Eva like `You make me come so hard' got pretty lame, pretty quick. And they way she described his you-know-what in every scene was laughable at best. The sex scenes needed to be better written...they sounded as if a teenager wrote them. The lack of originality - Anyone who read 50 Shades then read Bared to You would laugh at these "similarities" (when I was in college, they called this plagiarism lol) 1) The heroine lives with a roommate who dresses her, does her hair, and wants to protect her from the hot but dangerous guy. 2) Super rich, super hot, super hung, emotionally damaged guy wants to claim her 3) The stalker-ish behavior of the man (having her followed, the background checks, knowing what gym she goes to, what coffee she liked, the security detail etc.) 4) Speaking of stalker-ish behavior, stepping over the line and getting involved in her work just to be closer to her 5) The `other woman' - you know, the one from his past who's mean to the heroin but he can't stay away from her because they're `friends' Decision: If you want a good, decently written book with likeable characters, READ THIS BOOK. If you're looking for an erotic book, or much less a BDSM book DO NOT READ THIS BOOK. ... show more
