Klappentext zu „Bared to You “
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...
Lese-Probe zu „Bared to You “
WE SHOULD HEAD to a bar and celebrate. I wasn t surprised by my roommate s emphatic pronouncement. Cary Taylor found excuses to celebrate, no matter how small and inconsequential. I d always considered it part of his charm. I m sure drinking the night before starting a new job is a bad idea.
Come on, Eva. Cary sat on our new living room floor amid half a dozen moving boxes and flashed his winning smile. We d been unpacking for days, yet he still looked amazing. Leanly built, dark-haired, and green-eyed, Cary was a man who rarely looked anything less than absolutely gorgeous on any day of his life. I might have resented that if he hadn t been the dearest person on earth to me.
I m not talking about a bender, he insisted. Just a glass of wine or two. We can hit a happy hour and be in by eight.
I don t know if I ll make it back in time. I gestured at my yoga pants and fitted workout tank. After I time the walk to work, I m going to hit the gym.
Walk fast, work out faster. Cary s perfectly executed arched brow made me laugh. I fully expected his million-dollar face to appear on billboards and fashion magazines all over the world one day. No matter his expression, he was a knockout.
How about tomorrow after work? I offered as a substitute. If I make it through the day, that ll be worth celebrating.
Deal. I m breaking in the new kitchen for dinner.
Uh . . . Cooking was one of Cary s joys, but it wasn t one of his talents. Great.
Blowing a wayward strand of hair off his face, he grinned at me. We ve got a kitchen most restaurants would kill for. There s no way to screw up a meal in there.
Dubious, I headed out with a wave, choosing to avoid a conversation about cooking. Taking the elevator down to the first floor, I smiled at the doorman when he let me out to the street with a flourish.
The moment I stepped outside, the smells and sounds of

Manhattan embraced me and invited me to explore. I was not merely across the country from my former home in San Diego, but seemingly worlds away. Two major metropolises one endlessly temperate and sensually lazy, the other teeming with life and frenetic energy. In my dreams, I d imagined living in a walkup in Brooklyn, but being a dutiful daughter, I found myself on the Upper West Side instead. If not for Cary living with me, I would ve been miserably lonely in the sprawling apartment that cost more per month than most people made in a year.
The doorman tipped his hat to me. Good evening, Miss Tramell. Will you need a cab this evening?
No thanks, Paul. I rocked onto the rounded heels of my fitness shoes. I ll be walking.
He smiled. It s cooled down from this afternoon. Should be nice.
I ve been told I should enjoy the June weather before it gets wicked hot.
Very good advice, Miss Tramell.
Stepping out from under the modern glass entrance overhang that somehow meshed with the age of the building and its neighbors, I enjoyed the relative quiet of my tree-lined street before I reached the bustle and flow of traffic on Broadway. One day soon, I hoped to blend right in, but for now I still felt like a fraudulent New Yorker. I had the address and the job, but I was still wary of the subway and had trouble hailing cabs. I tried not to walk around wide-eyed and distracted, but it was hard. There was just so much to see and experience.
The sensory input was astonishing the smell of vehicle exhaust mixed with food from vendor carts, the shouts of hawkers blende
