“I’m not afraid of work.” He was touching me restlessly, his hands sliding over my thighs and buttocks as if caressing my bare skin was as necessary to him as breathing. is going to be a lot of work, Gideon.” I warned him. I loved how their love for each other made them stronger than any problems that came their way. They both made mistakes but they were understandable mistakes, nothing that make me want to throw my Kindle at the wall, nothing where I couldn’t understand the reaction they had, and they always talked everything through after. I loved how open and honest they learned to be with each other.

Despite both having very messed up pasts, and both having their fair share of f*ck ups, they worked through everything functionally and passionately in a way that deeply warmed my heart. There are a lot of wonderful book couples out there but the thing that made me just LOVE this book was how fuctional Gideon and Eva were. “I want to keep feeling the way I feel when I’m with you. He caught me to him and cupped my cheek in one hand. “What do you want, Gideon?” I asked softly. “I must’ve wished for you so hard and so often you had no choice but to come true.” “Oh, Eva.” He rubbed his cheek against my damp face. I love how on the outside he’s this unobtainable larger-than-life god but on the inside, he’s just a man who wants to be loved by his girl. He’s so messed up but he’s trying his absolute best to be everything his girl needs him to be. Gideon Cross is just pure perfection in my eyes! He is tortured, passionate, controlling, but isn’t afraid to admit he fucked up, tender, possessive, gorgeous, absolutely and utterly in LOVE with his girl… <3 <3 Gah! my heart is bursting here! <3 Intense sparks fly from the first glance. She chooses to start at the bottom and work her way to the top and gets a job in an advertising agency where she meets the guy who owns the company she works for (and pretty much everything in NYC) Gideon Cross and its just an instant connection between then.

The story is told from the perspective of Eva Hammel, a 24 year old girl who comes from money but wants to make it on her own in the world. It was the perfect blend of heart warming actions and lines, HOTNESS, and tortured hero (and heroine).īared To You was one of the only books ever where, the moment I was finished, I flipped it over and started again at page one and read it through right away again. This book was absolute perfection for me!! It had me swooning, drooling and panting over Gideon Cross and had me reading for the better part of it with the world’s biggest grin on my face.

I’m re-posting this review to in anticipation for book 2 which comes out in a few short days!! 🙂
