Bared to You

Yes. Late to the party again or shall we call it fashionably late? In any case THIS MAY HAVE SPOILERS as I figure anyone who was jonesing for this jumped on it a while ago. This was a Free Audiobook for me which was perfect for my weekend activities. Hands free ;-) And I enjoyed it. It was done by [a:Jill Redfield 6421428 Jill Redfield https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1353841639p2/6421428.jpg].I think it's needless to rehash who came first [b:Fifty Shades of Grey 10818853 Fifty Shades of Grey (Fifty Shades, #1) E.L. James https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1385207843s/10818853.jpg 15732562] or [b:Bared to You 20448515 Bared to You (Crossfire, #1) Sylvia Day https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1433411511s/20448515.jpg 18973111]. It hardly matters. I think the more important aspect is how [a:Sylvia Day 19823 Sylvia Day https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1484817078p2/19823.jpg], [a:E.L. James 4725841 E.L. James https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1308409727p2/4725841.jpg] etc. honed in to a vibe in the zeitgeist and the flood gates to these types of books were busted open.Once again we have young, impossibly beautiful people meeting and becoming instantly obsessed with each other in every aspect. Of course they can't have it all or there'd be no book so dark, painful pasts rear their ugly heads and our MCs own insecurities threaten to tear apart what is clearly a match made in romance heaven. But I sound snide and I don't mean to. I very much enjoyed the book. Although it was an audio I can tell that it was well written and the moments of justified crazy from both MC are resolved rather swiftly and it helps that both Gideon and Eva are aware of their issues and seem willing to work on them.The smexy times did not disappoint. I can well appreciate why Gideon Cross is a favorite book boyfriend. That level of commitment and adoration is enviable except I guess when you actually have it. Or maybe it's just me. But as a fantasy guy I'll take him any day.My misgivings come from the fact that I now know that the author has made this into what seems an interminable series thereby I'm sure adulterating the love affair between these two and giving the readers filler & nonsense that will make you forget why you loved the first book.Maybe I'll just stop here as the ending has them heading out to work on their HEA and isn't that what we are all doing in our daily lives anyway.
