The ending is ABRUPT, and mostly unfulfilling. When I started it, I wasn’t aware that the series had been extended, so when the book ended, I literally kept pressing the screen on my iPad, thinking there was more. Which is great, except that this book had the feel of filler to me. The first issue being that this series was originally sold as a three book series, which has now been extended to a five book series. That being said, I think it is problematic. What to say about this book? I gobbled it up and enjoyed every moment of it. Her mother is still keeping too tight tabs on Eva’s whereabouts, her father has just found out about the abuse that Eva suffered as a child, and Cary is still messing around with the hot model and the hot vet, not making a choice, but seeing both. As the two are finding their way, the usual dramas are playing out in Eva’s life. Eva is struggling to forgive Gideon for hurting her, even as she can’t seem to stay away from him.

They sneak to see each other as often as possible, but must keep their relationship under wraps. He takes the apartment next door to the one that Eva shares with Cary, her roommate. Now Gideon is back in her life, but it must be a secret, as there is an ongoing police investigation.

Gideon already suffers cruelly from his horrible past, and now his actions will only compound his angst. She worries that carrying out his plan has scarred him irrevocably. Eva was devastated, and when she finally discovers the truth about what Gideon has done, she’s both deeply touched by his actions and horrified that he’s gone as far as he has. In order to carry out his plan, Gideon cut Eva out of his life, allowing the world, and Eva, to believe that they had broken up,and going so far as to be seen with a former flame to carry out the deception. When we left the couple at the end of Reflected in You, Gideon had gone as far as someone could go to protect Eva, but the emotional fallout of his actions have made Eva wary. Those who have read the previous two books in this series, Bared to You and Reflected in You know that Gideon Cross and Eva Trammel have been struggling through both of their difficult pasts to build their future together. Even though it portrays an incredibly screwed up, emotionally damaging relationship between two people, your writing and characterization make it a compelling read. I think that your Crossfire series qualifies as “ extreme romance“.

I’ve tried to remain as vague as possible.** **NOTE: This review contains mild spoilers for the two previous books, as it’s impossible to talk about the storyline of Entwined with You without referencing earlier events.
