Review by totallybookedblog.com Gitte: I am in absolute awe of Sylvia Day. The journey of Gideon and Eva got even more sensual, obsessive, raw and emotional in Reflected in You. It was exhausting, gripping and my heart hurt more than I can say as I devoured it in one sitting. Jenny: I had seen the snippets of this book on Sylvia's page and couldn't wait to get my hands on it and it didn't disappoint. I couldn't put this book down. I was drawn in from the very beginning. This book is intense, emotional, at times frustrating (yes...I'm talking about you Gideon...you tested me at times!), passionate, sensual and at times sad. It had everything for me. Quote: "I'm obsessed with you, angel. Addicted to you. You're everything I've ever wanted or needed, everything I've ever dreamed of. You're everything. I live and breathe you. For you." - Gideon Gitte: I felt like a voyeur, one minute sighing with relief that this emotionally damaged couple had found in each other a way to heal and know they are worthy of love and love in return without conditions and the next frustrated at the game playing and the circles they run around each other. Their journey is both painful and emotional yet erotic and addictive. Jenny: There's no getting around it. Eva and Gideon are scarred and damaged. Their pasts haunt them and we are taken on the rollercoaster that is their relationship and we get the whole gamut of emotions with this one. These two use sex as a way of dealing with their feelings instead of talking, but soon realise sex isn't enough to sustain the relationship they want to nurture. There are times you want to shake them both, especially Gideon. They are extremely passionate in their emotions and their sexual encounters are so hot and sensual you will need to fan yourself. These two absolutely set the pages on fire. Quote: "You know what happens when you run angel. I catch you." - Gideon Gitte: If at all possible I fell even more in love with Gideon and Eva. We re-join them in their continued fight to exist together in their relationship. So dependent on each other it is an obsession and addiction. Gideon and Eva cannot function without each other. They need each other. Both are tortured survivors of sexual abuse which has left them with open wounds so deep that translated into behaviour, their love for each other becomes this obsessive and almost violent entity. Jenny: Gideon and Eva have "survived" - violent, abusive pasts. Up until they meet they have simply gone through the motions of dealing and have used sex as a coping mechanism in their lives. These two need each other like they need air to breathe. They can't function a day without each other. Both are sensual, sexual, passionate and emotional people. I love Eva. She is one of my favourite book heroines. I love that even though she is damaged and openly admits her faults and even thought her desperate need for Gideon borders on obsession she still remains a strong character and is such a good equal to Gideon. Gideon......just when I thought I couldn't love him more I do! This man is one of the sexiest, alpha characters I have read. He worships and adores Eva and loves her without exception. The scene when he is brushing her hair............just wait...that did me in! Quote: "My past was as violent as his, and I was just as broken. We'd never work. It was too hard, too painful... except when it was perfect. Those moments when the driving hunger and desperate love were the most exquisite insanity. We were bound by our need. And our passion would take us beyond our limits to the sweetest, sharpest edge of obsession." Gitte: They know this and acknowledge it by seeking couple therapy in order to understand just what a healthy and normal relationship really is and learn how to trust one another. What Gideon and Eva don't lack is sexual compatibility. Their sexual chemistry is off the charts; intense, powerful and will literally set you on fire. Jenny: You are spot one GG. These two have sexual chemistry that just burns the pages. Every sexual encounter with these two is off the charts. Quote:: "You hit me the instant I saw you. I couldn't look away. I wanted you immediately. Excessively. Almost violently." - Gideon Quote: "A delicious shiver moved through me. When it came to Gideon, I was more than willing to be devoured." - Eva Gitte: YEAH DON'T WE ALL!!! Especially when we picture Gideon as the gorgeous David Gandy! Jenny: As if Gideon isn't hot enough...add David Gandy into the mix and whoa!!! Quote: "His kisses were gifts. He kissed with everything he had, with power and passion and hunger and love. He held nothing back, giving everything, exposing everything." - Eva Quote: "You're the greatest risk I've ever taken. And the greatest reward." - Gideon Gitte: Gideon is such an enigma. But what an amazing, gorgeous and sensual dominating enigma. I LOVE him. Truly, madly, deeply! This man shares nothing about his past or even his present. He does, however, show Eva how powerful his love for her is. Jenny: I loved Gideon in Bared to You but in this book....apart from the times he was so secretive I wanted to slap him - oh who am I kidding, even then I loved him. This man is intense, domineering and so alpha, yet he shows his love for Eva in so many ways. There is nothing he wouldn't do for her - she has become his reason for living. His reason for breathing. He cannot function without her. Gitte: Besides the sexual intensity, he also shows it through control and demand, protection and comfort. My heart broke for him, the thought of this little boy who suffered; who grew up and is still suffering through horrific nightmares. Nightmares through which he is petrified he will eventually harm Eva. Ultimately secrets will out but until they do insecurities and doubts will flourish. You put your heart out there it may eventually be hurt by both truths and lies. Jenny: My heart broke for him too GG, especially with how he would deal with his nightmares. He was hurting and so was Eva but they had to do what was necessary for them both to get through their turmoil. I did feel that both characters grew such much at the end of this book. Quote: "Are you hurt anywhere else?" I asked, feeling so emotionally raw after the long night we'd had. He caught my wrist and pulled my hand down to press flat over his heart. "Here." Gitte: The anticipation of not knowing was frustrating and heart breaking but once you know the why's and things come to light, you understand and WANT Gideon just as he is and you will realize that the love he has for Eva has no limits. Even Eva who is a strong heroine already, shows some real back bone in this story and the pair of them as dysfunctional, possessive and jealous as they are also show extreme vulnerability and tenderness. The ending will leave you stunned. It will literally blow your mind...it's going to be a long 3 months until we get Entwined with You!! Jenny: I must admit there was a time in this story when I got so frustrated with Gideon. I can't say much because I don't want to give anything away but boy did he test me. Eva really came through in this book. What a great character she is. I adore her! Her love for Gideon is beyond question and in return he has a love so strong for Eva there is nothing he wouldn't do for her. These two will take you one hell of a ride that's for sure! There will be times when you'll wonder just what the hell is going with these two - I found myself actually wanting to skip pages to see what was going to happen because I became so anxious! Just you wait! This story is so well crafted when the ending comes it will leave you breathless and chomping at the bit for Entwined with You! I know I can't wait and I also know what I'm doing on December 31st!

"If I lose you, Eva, ... I have nothing. Everything I've done is so I don't lose you." I have never so anxiously awaited for a sequel like I have for this one. It is no understatement when I say that I was literally counting down the hours to its release date, desperately clinging onto the little snippets that the author fed us along the way. And, for me, it was definitely worth the wait. Eva and Gideon's relationship is still relatively in its early stages. Their love for each other is all-consuming, possessive, raw, almost primal in so many ways - they constantly crave each other's touch, presence, affection. The intensity of their connection might make it appear like they have been together for a while but the issues before them are those of a new couple. Trust is their biggest hurdle at this point, giving rise to endless scenes of jealousy and bouts of self-doubt. Their insecurities make them explosive with one another, violently addicted to each other and yet endlessly passionate. "Most couples didn't spend every free moment together, but we weren't like most people. We both had hang-ups, insecurities, and an addiction to each other that required regular contact to keep us functioning properly. I hated being apart from him. I rarely went more than a couple of hours without thinking of him. ... We were together because we were addicted to each other. I was never as intoxicated as I was when we were happy together, and I knew it was the same for him. We were putting ourselves through the wringer for those moments of perfection between us, but they were so tenuous that only our stubbornness, determination, and love kept us fighting for them." But their story is definitely not a Hallmark movie. It does not take a psychiatrist to see how unhealthy their almost-symbiotic relationship really is. We see all its faults, all its destructive streaks, and yet we can't help ourselves from wanting to give them their happy ending. We want them to make it, to overcome their hideous pasts and mend their broken souls. In any other scenario, we would be cringing at some of their interactions, but when it comes to Eva and Gideon, we just want to accept the dysfunctionality of their relationship for what it is, pat them on the shoulder and cheer them on. If you can just allow yourself not to over-analyze the toxic nature of some of the scenes, if you can become blindly consumed by the magnetism between Eva and Gideon, if you can take the raw pull and sexual chemistry first and everything you might believe makes a healthy relationship second, then this story will take you on quite an emotional ride. "Angel, if I needed you more, I couldn't function. And I don't care what anyone else thinks. We've got our own rhythm and it works for us." The attraction between the main characters is compelling, sizzling, irresistible in its intensity. These are `faulty' characters completely aware of the obsessive and borderline-destructive nature of their relationship but fully embracing it as neither of them is willing to step away from one another - "Failure isn't an option." The events unfolding in this book show us just how far they are willing to go to protect each other. Their tragic pasts inevitably made them as they are - I'm almost surprised neither of them have become abusers themselves but I guess abuse comes in all shapes and sizes. They are ultimately abusive towards themselves and I believe this is where their relationship redeems itself by breaking that pattern of abuse and offering an alternative. They are in a way each other's punching bags, if by `punching' you mean really really hot sex. Sex is used as a currency between them, both to express feelings as well as to punish one another. They heal each other in their own messed-up ways, offering the kind of comfort and solace that they are unable to find anywhere else. They are raw before one another, totally stripped from protective façades and emotional defenses. They have a direct `feed' into each other's most primal selves and they definitely speak the same language. Eva brings the tender and vulnerable man in Gideon, she is his one and only weakness - "I loved the powerful businessman in the suit and the dominant lover in my bed and the broken child who couldn't hide his tears and the tender partner who held me when I cried." Gideon makes Eva feel safe enough in his care to be able to do the one thing she has never been able to do - give up control. I never felt that Gideon's caveman tendencies made Eva any less his `equal' in their own dysfunctional equation. She doesn't just lay back and take it, she pounces on him, takes control, makes demands, sets her own boundaries and rules and is never ever afraid of just walking away if that is what she truly wants. They are each other's perfect match in every single way and equally the worse possible one as well. "People get over love. They can live without it, they can move on. Love can be lost and found again. But that won't happen for me. I won't survive you, Eva. ... I'm obsessed with you, angel. Addicted to you. You're everything I've ever wanted or needed, everything I've ever dreamed of. You're everything. I live and breathe you. For you. ... I don't need anything else. I get out of bed every morning and face the world because you're in it. ... Because of you, the world makes sense to me in a way it didn't before. I have a place now, with you." Eva And Gideon's insatiable relationship is not meant to be pretty. It is not romantic in the traditional sense of the word and it is as far from ordinary as it gets. This is not the kind of relationship you would brag about to your hairdresser. This is the kind of relationship you would discuss with your shrink. Daily. So, give the rational part of your brain a holiday, take a seat, make yourself comfortable and dive in expecting lots and lots of hot lovin', drama, misunderstandings, jealousy, obsessive behaviour, addictive personalities and ... have I mentioned hot lovin'? Simply switch off your brain and allow other parts of your anatomy to take over. Advocates of healthy relationships have no place here. Fairy-tale romantics have no place here. Heck, 99% of my brain had no place here but that shameless little 1% was happy as a clam. I LOVED this book. It was everything I expected it to be, nothing more and nothing less. I expected the level of obsessiveness between them to be even more amplified in this sequel. I counted on it. The development of these characters in Bared to You did not allow for anything different. I felt there was growth in their relationship, there was change in their dynamic and they are ultimately moving forward as a couple. This book brings some new problems to the table, takes a few away but it never stops being interesting or unpredictable. It explores human obsession and extreme emotional addiction just perfectly. The characters might drive you mad at times, you might want to shake them or even slap them into oblivion, you might not agree with parts of the storyline or some of the things that Gideon and Eva do `in the name of love', but your addiction to this series will stay intact if you are anything like me. I personally have an unhealthy love affair with this trilogy and I'm not ashamed to admit it. It does exactly what it promises to do, no unrealistic premises, no false pretenses. These books are not how-to guides on functional relationships, they are literary crack in its purest and most delicious form, and I have no desire to kick the habit any time soon. ~ N ♥
