By: Sylvia Day

Narrated by: Jill Redfield

Length: 11 hrs and 2 mins

Publisher's summary

The worldwide phenomenon continues as Eva and Gideon face the demons of their pasts and accept the consequences of their obsessive desires.... From the moment I first met Gideon Cross, I recognized something in him that I needed. Something I couldn’t resist. I also saw the dangerous and damaged soul inside - so much like my own. I was drawn to it. I needed him as surely as I needed my heart to beat. No one knows how much he risked for me. How much I’d been threatened, or just how dark and desperate the shadow of our pasts would become.

Entwined by our secrets, we tried to defy the odds. We made our own rules and surrendered completely to the exquisite power of possession....

Critic reviews

“A steamy read that will have you furiously flipping pages.” (Glamour)

“A highly charged story that flows and hits the mark.” (Kirkus Reviews)

THIS SERIES KEEP GETTING BETTER! GIDEON... *SWOON*

Now I get it when women seem to be swooning or fanning themselves when they mention Gideon Cross in reviews. This book was all Gideon Cross-sumptuousness! Oh how I loved it! I felt like Gideon and Eva's relationship emanated a strength and security that was further exemplified in the last 2 hours of this audiobook....OMG! What developments and direction this book took!!!!---Totally unexpected, and for me, that's because Gideon Cross is unexpected. He sweeps Eva off of her feet and always seems to surprise her with his reactions and demands which perpetually put her at the top of his priority list. I adore the way Gideon loves Eva...it's a desperate, insatiable, needy, all-consuming kind of love, and of course that love is reciprocated. There are steamy love scenes, and every development in this story brings Gideon and Eva closer together.

Regarding the secondary characters, I'm mixed about Kary (sp?), Eva's best friend. I hate his relationship with Tatiana, but we'll see what happens there. OMG, and Eva's parents kill me!!! I think their story is so sad, but I just know that in the next 2 books something good is going to happen to them...I have that feeling, even though their situation is depressing and lost right now. Eva's friend, Maouby (sp?)---well, there is something weird and suspicious about her, or her boyfriend.....I can't put my finger on it. I'm curious to see what washes up on the shore of past relationships for both Gideon and Eva in the next book. So far, every past relationship, for both has been deemed irrelevant. I hope that continues to be the theme as we go forward in this series.

Regarding book 4, which follows, I can't wait till November when it is released!!! I just hope that Gideon and Eva do not regress in how far along they have come in their trust and love for one another. Eva does tend to misread Gideon's brooding and quiet moments. When she thinks the worst, it tends to turn out that Gideon is even more committed to her than she realizes. I'm hoping that this is the worst type of situation that will occur in the next book. I don't want to be pissed about Gideon or Eva cheating, or anything like that. Well, the fact that I'm pontificating just proves how this series can really get in your head.

UGH, I'm hoping to survive the wait for the release of the final 2 books in this series.

To GIDEON AND EVA, AND THE ADVENTURES & HOT SEX THAT AWAIT THEM!

Narrator: Jill Redfield is incredibly talented. Her performance is excellent. I love what she does for Gideon's voice......she makes him sound so irresistible! She does a great job for all of the characters.

This one had everything but the kitchen sink!

I absolutely adore the Crossfire series, can't get enough of it. Each book has been hot like fire, and I have been anticipating the third book what seems like forever. All that said, I felt emotionally drained at the end of Entwined. So many ups and downs and twists and turns--GEEZ!!! I was happy and confounded all at once. With all the characters having these newly developing storylines, my head was spinning! I love Eva and Gideon so much I just want a fairy tale ending for them--can we have that please Sylvia Day??? This wasn't a disappointment at all, but I hope that the next book ties up some loose ends and these two lovebirds can stop having so much drama. Book4??...now the wait begins....

Will This Never End???

Would you consider the audio edition of Entwined With You to be better than the print version?

Yes. I like the voice of the narrator and she brings the characters to life. I've become a fan of audio but also like to have the print version available so I can go over the 'hotter' bits. The one thing about audio is the inability to hit replay to the exact point you want to repeat.

What did you like best about this story?

I liked that Gideon and Ava seemed to gain understanding of each other and to finally be making headway toward a meaningful romance, marriage, and life together. Then.....it didn't end but the author decided to keep her $$$$ coming in.

What about Jill Redfield’s performance did you like?

I liked the way she reads and makes the characters come to life. She even gets Gideon's fear through her voice.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Watch Out for Sexy Men and Women.....they never get over it.

Any additional comments?

I'm wondering why it was advertised as a trilogy and now we are waiting for Book #4.

Good and Worth It but not as good as the first 2

When I pre-purchased this book I was looking forward to the conclusion of the series. Well that was not the case.

it was not as exciting as the first 2 and it left to many questions that I truly hope are answered in the coming books.

Would I get this again, Yes, would I recommend it Yes.

Can two dysfunctional, sex addicts find happiness together?

Captivating story; after the first novel, I found myself wondering how Eva was going to take control of her life, overcome her emotional swings, and master her triggers. The second novel, “Entwined With You,” was better than the first. I listened non-stop. The large number of ‘Cliff Hangers’ make buying the next book in the series a requirement. All in all this was a very enjoyable read. The story plot is skillfully developed and Ms Day’s writing style entwined the reader with the main characters in a way that makes putting the book down difficult. I recommend this book to you!

good but...

the storyline is good, sexy, but would be excellent with the perspective of Ace's thoughts.

Another Sylvia Day Hit

I have throughly enjoyed the Crossfire Series. This one was not exception. I read the first two book on my kindle so the narration was not exactly what I would have liked. She didn't fit what I had in my mind but that's just a personal preference I guess. Overall though it was good and I enjoyed it very much.

Makes the entire "Crossfire" series WHITE HOT!

If you could sum up Entwined With You in three words, what would they be?

Compelling, Passionate and SENSUAL

What was one of the most memorable moments of Entwined With You?

The revelation of his ex-finances pregnancy

Have you listened to any of Jill Redfield’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

She is consistently good

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Extremely HORNY!

Any additional comments?

Sylvia Days writing and story telling is outstanding... regardless of genre.

Great continued story

Gideon and Eva become more solid and other parts of the story come to life. I was entertained! You will not be disappointed.

Hooked!

Therr have been many audio books i have a hard time with because the voice of the narrator doesn't go with the story being told. That is not the case with this book....i love the story so much, but the narrator has brought it to life!
