Publisher's summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Sylvia Day comes the first novel in the Crossfire series - a provocative masterstroke of abandon and obsession that redefined the meaning of desire, and became a global phenomenon.

Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness...

He was beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I’d never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily...

Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other’s most private wounds...and desires.

The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn’t tear us apart...

Featured Article: Steamy Listens as Irresistible as Fifty Shades of Grey

Here are some books and series that fans of Fifty Shades are sure to love.

Shocking, to stay the least

Very jarring and a sexual. Felt befuddled, not to mention uncomfortable, over Eva’s casual conversations about self indulgence. Do not recommend for those under 18 and who are triggered by molesting.

Wow...intriguing, dark and delightful

This is fantastic love story. Usually one doesn't exactly get why the leads are attracted to each other but you get it in this story. Both flawed with past that are haunting. It goes places that shocked me and quite dark. Yes it's going to be compared to 50 shades but this is so much more complex and characters that are fully realized. The sex is hot and well laced throughout but not the driving force as the characters are so intriguing as is the story.

This needs to be in the movies or better yet on hbo or another premium channel. So much could be expanded on that a series would be amazing. You will not want it to end and race to read/hear the next book. Also the performance from Jill is top notch. She hits it out of the park.

steamy but dumb girl

I love the steamy sex scenes, but seriously the girl is dumb in a lot of situations, she is blind to him trying like hell to make her happy. Still not finished with it yet.

Great Story, Exceptional Narration

There are a lot of superficial similarities to 50 Shades, but there’s no more telling example of the difference between these books than this: the characters in this story actively seek therapy for their pasts and medication for their needs. It’s dramatic and also healthy (well, MORE healthy) and captivating.

Also? Jill Redfield is an outstanding audiobook narrator.

Must read!

This has everything one wants to read in a book like this. Hot, dramatic, love and pain- the good and bad kind. I am very skeptical of books like this bc some are just phony and fake. Can’t wait to read the next!!

Love this series!

I’ve read this series twice and now I’ve listened to it on audiobook once. This series always has me hooked from the beginning. I never get bored of it.

Bared to you.

I love this series, I have read it several times. This is the first time I am listening to it on Audible and what I will say is that I still LOVE this series, I just wish they would've had a guy narrating Gideon and Carey's characters. Hearing her try to fake a guy's voice is not appealing.

Gideon (Ace) & Ava (Angel/Baby Girl)

Audible Escapes review. Single POV (Ava's) I love the Crossfire series and have read it many times. Listening to it is very interesting. I liked the narrator's voice but found some of the pretentious pronunciations distracted me from the story. I listened at speed 1.8. I didn't enjoy the intro and finale music, I'm glad it was brief.

Well.....disappointed

I had read a lot of reviews comparing this to 50 shades. The sex was boring. The story was ok. The narrators male voice was annoying AF. Especially every time she said "Ava". Whaaa whaaa!
