There are going to be 5 books total with the first 3 out in publication now -- Bared to You, Reflecting In You, Entwined with You.
I obviously knew going in it was going to be steamy, but was pleasantly surprised that I loved the characters. They are so easy to like and cheer for! The main characters and Eva Tremell and Gideon Cross. Eva just moved to New York from California with her best friend and roommate Cary Taylor to start a new life after college.
Eva has come to work her way up from the bottom at an advertising company that just happens to be in the Crossfire Building. She bumps into Gideon Cross (who just happens to own the Crossfire Building and most of NY) the first time checking out her new job in an advertising company, and it heats up from there! They are all products of some sort of childhood abuse and is a main concern to their relationship from the beginning, and once you glimpse the torment they both go through due to this you are left totally cheering them on. Another cool aspect of this story is Eva's bond with Cary. They met when they were in group counseling in California when she moved in with her father in High School. Cary is a male model and has his own dysfunction to work though but he and Eva are in it for thick and thin! He helps ground Eva when things start getting really serious and crazy with Cross.
I love how the author keeps you wanting them to make it and even at the end of each book you are not really left with a huge cliffhanger to wonder about, but just wondering how they are going to pull out of the next crisis pushed upon them. To tell you the truth I totally loved these characters WAY WAY more then 50 Shades, Christian Grey and Ana. Sylvia Day is a wonderful writer and makes there story just jump from the page! I love a book that can be both serious and funny at the same time, and truthfully I probably was smiling and chuckling just as much as I was fanning the heat in these 3 books.
I will warn you though that even with the awesome story line if you are NOT into lots of hot and steamy sex scenes (nothing like 50 Shades sex) then this is probably not the book for you! They also go into some detail about the abuse they both had to deal with in their pasts(both from either family or drs to them as children). I felt she wrote about this with the sensitivity it deserved while showing us that the characters are shaped by what happened to them as children and sadly still having to deal with the repercussions as adults.
Overall I can say without reservation I will be anxiously awaiting the next book which release date is still awaiting a publication date!
Here are some snippets/quotes that I liked from the books!
