Publisher's summary

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...

Better than Fifty Shades but similar idea

I guess I am just kind of over the tortured millionaire past. Gideon obviously has had something terrible happen in the past, making a real relationship difficult. This isn't as mommy porn, red room type as 50 Shades, but definitely has the smut most ladies love. If you want to meet Ava and Gideon and their naughty, this is a book for you! I enjoyed the book, just was looking for a different underlying story I guess.g

J.R doesn't sound like she's reading the book 👍

My biggest struggle with audiobooks is finding a narrator that does the book justice. Jill Redfield
makes you feel like a friend talking to you. Not reading to you. Love the voices on the different characters. The Crossfire series overall is awesome. I can relate with the book minus Gideon. I'm still looking for him.

Excellent!

Easily one of the best female narrators I've ever listened to. The storyline was great, although the main character running away every five seconds did start to get old after a while. I'm hoping that ends soon. Both Ava and Gideon have some real demons, real struggles that are realistic and I enjoyed Ava's personality as well as Gideon's. I can't wait to keep listening and see what happens next!

Loved it but must remember my own life!

If you liked 50 Shades of Grey, then you'll definitely enjoy this book. I just finished the series a couple days ago, and I still can't get this story out of my mind. The story of Gideon and Ava haunts my dreams. Their lives are so complex, but their love is so perfect in every way. I have to remember that this is a book, and Gideon Cross is a made-up character! I definitely recommend this book. Let the story carry you away into another life, but don't forget your own. Also, the narrator is amazing! I loved everything about it, and can't wait for a 4th book!

FABULULOUS! Better than Fifty!

What did you love best about Bared to You?

Everything about this book is totally fabulous. The story grabs you from the first minute or two, and the narration is absolutely top shelf; 6 stars. This book is far more literary than the Fifty Shades trilogy-- and the dialogue sounds real. The character development is excellent. Can't wait until Part Two comes out in October!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Would have loved it to be, but alas, had to interrupt it for work and sleep!

Any additional comments?

I have found a new favorite author, and a new favorite reader.

One of the best examples of modern erotica

The story stands far above most romance novels. The plot and character development are fairly unique and keep you captivated. Well rounded cast of characters.

The passionate scenes between the main characters are amongst the most erotic of any books in recent memory.

The narrator's performance was amazing.

I've listened to the entire series more than once. Strongly recommended.

The narration left something to be desired...

Is there anything you would change about this book?

The narrator

What did you like best about this story?

. I'm a sucker for rocky romances so I enjoyed the element of overcoming issues

How did the narrator detract from the book?

at times Carey sounded like Eva, and often times Gideon sounded angry when he shouldn't have. I just feel like the male voices weren't great - bottom line.

Was Bared to You worth the listening time?

Yes

Any additional comments?

I know this is fiction but some of the story was just too unrealistic. It actually irritated me at times.
