(No romance there, just friendly sparring – Cary is bisexual, so there’s opportunity for some interesting sex scenes there). Eva isn’t short of money either, and lives in a nice apartment with her friend Cary. Her mother is way overprotective (she tracks Eva’s mobile phone!), beyond what is reasonable. The book starts off as Eva gets a job in New York City and is ready to start an adult life, leaving the demons of her past behind. It’s not that this book is poorly written, it’s just that the sex/argument/sex/argument thing got a bit boring for me over time. This is just not my kind of read, but others (particularly those who enjoyed Fifty Shades of Grey or other books with super alpha male heroes) will like it. I swear, this book seemed to go on forever. Unfortunately I was pretty short on time, so I decided to listen to Bared to You (the first book in the Crossfire series) in the car instead. Seeing as I was going to a convention where Sylvia Day was present, I thought I should try reading one of her novels. Why I chose it: Something I haven’t read before, the gossip was that this was way better than 50 Shades. The not-so-good: It’s sparring/sex/sparring/sex etc. The good: It’s well written and Jill Redfield is fantastic as narrator (I bet she doesn’t blush at anything!). In brief: Eva moves to New York City, and multimillionaire Gideon immediate falls for her, starting a relationship brimming with angst, pain and possibly love…
