This series is just not about hot, steamy and toe curling sex scenes, it actually has an interesting plot which leaves you turning the pages and wishing for more.
I have read all the five parts and I still wish that Sylvia Day would write more about Eva and Gideon.
I simply love this series and every romance novels fan should read this series at least once.

- Latest Review: "See Bride Run!" by Charlotte Hughes
I follow Sylvia Day on social media and when she'd post up pictures or herself in exotic places, it enraged me further. Why was she out gallivanting all over the freaking world while thousands of people are waiting for the next book in the series? This was going on while we were waiting for book three.
Frankly, the series should have ended after that. I thought books four and five were nothing more than moneygrabs for her and did nothing more than to feed her enormous ego. When the fifth book finally came out, I ended up really not liking Eva.
And Day cannot let go of this series. As a matter of fact, she even had somebody write and record the song, "Golden". It's not a bad song overall but like everything else dealing with Sylvia Day, I found it to do nothing more than to stroke her ego some more. Wait until the rumored TV show comes out...
She had a hit with The Crossfire Series. There is no doubt about that. But can she do it again? I guess I don't know nor do I care. I will never read anything by this woman again.
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

I did think that the books could have been shorten into just three in the series and maybe a little wrap up novella to conclude there story. I thought that it was lengthened and drawn out when it didn't need to be.
Not only was the story drawn out but the waiting time for the next book was drawn out. After waiting such a long time in between the books, I ended up having to go back and reread the others to remember where they left off. It was a little frustrating but I understand that there are some things that come up when writing and publishing books. But the drawn out story of Gideon and Eva wasn't helping the frustration...

Considering the wait time, it was not worth it.
