 In the fourth installment of the Crossfire series, Eva and Gideon have new obstacles to face ... embarking on a journey that just may end in heartbreak for Eva and the deepest depression for Gideon. 
 Being married is hard for two normal people ... for Eva and Gideon, it's impossible. Old enemies and some new are coming out of the woodwork as Eva and Gideon announce their "engagement" not wanting everyone to know that they are already married. 
 Old loves feel that it's their place to throw wrenches into the their lives ... tell all books, threats, a viral video ... just some of the things that they have to handle. But, a wrong move, a job offer, puts Eva and Gideon at odds and spirals him out of control. 
 I am not sure if I agree with this series moving forward with the path that it is taking. I guess I really love my happily-ever-afters and, without sounding too cruel or mean, I don't see one in the future for these two. With the direction Sylvia Day has taken this series, it's going to take a lot of work to get them to the alter the second time. Mostly work on Gideon's part ... I can't see him finally opening himself up to his past, to his therapist or to Eva. I feel like they are going to do nothing but frustrate each other. Because, unfortunately, I'm frustrated. Yes, I really hope that she will find a way to slay all the dragons of their pasts and bring them together with an HEA. There's a part of me that is looking forward to see how and if she gets them there and another part of me that is not looking forward to the angst. But, hopefully, Crossfire 5 will bring everything together and maybe, just maybe, show us a side of Gideon we haven't seen - loving, open and honest.

 Captivated by You is the 4th book in the Crossfire series by Sylvia Day. I tried with all my being to savor this book by taking is slow, but I found myself staying up late, reading during breaks work, and sneaking in chapters here and there. The next thing I knew, BOOM, it was done. Over. How sad! What is it about this couple that I cannot get enough of? Their relationship is completely volatile and a little scary, but it sucks me in and I want to see it through to the end because I truly care about them, not to mention all the relationships outside of the coupledome. 
 As we begin, things were good, but I was never under the illusion they would stay that way for two more books and honestly, Gideon is NOT fixed. Eva has helped him and he is better but he's going to therapy for her not for him and we all know that doesn't work and usually for really stubborn people, something major has to happen to get their attention in order for them to realize it's time to make a change or lose what they have. People, mainly exes, from their pasts are trying to ruin them. I am amazed at how he keeps his cool. 
 You have to give the man major points for keeping it together while everything is falling to pieces around him. He's calculating and smart and didn't get where he is on just his good looks. I also feel there is a push and pull with Eva. On one hand, she's good for him but on the other hand she's not. What I mean by that is she is definitely supporting and helping him. He's learning to open up and I think in the end he's going to be ok, it's just not going to be an easy road to get him there. She's also struggling with her independence. However, he's completely obsessed with her and to a degree it's not healthy. But, his obsession drives him to want to be what she needs which in turn is causing him to change. It's a crazy cycle but I am totally and irrevocably addicted to this couple, their friends and family and this wild ride I could no longer stay away from. 
 This is another wonderful and powerful story. My sweet, dark, troubled, passionate, and intense man is still there all broken and I know only love will rescue him from the depths. He's still working through so much and continues to mess up, royally at times, but I'll never doubt his love for her or hers for him. If he wasn't so complex I don't think I'd be so fascinated with him. One of the things that I LOVED about this book is that we were able to read every other chapter in Gideon's point of view. Hearing all of his naughtiness, possessiveness, and reasoning behind some of his decisions gave me a new appreciation for him. He's still dreamy but on a different level now. He and Eva have come a long way with their issues but he still has a ways to go. Even though we're four books in, a very short amount of time has passed. I do believe their love is healing however, you don't just bounce back over night from everything he's been through, so I'm glad it's not being rushed. 
 I was completely satisfied with this story and the ending. I felt hopeful for a Gideon and Eva happy ever after in our future. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and praying hard we don't have to wait terribly long for that last installment. 
 On a side note, I'd like to mention that I probably have a different viewpoint from others who started with the series when it first released. I began the series a few weeks ago and read all four books back to back. So, I'm not harboring any harsh feelings about more books or timelines. I understand people were upset that it was changed from three books to five and that it's taken them longer to release, but we have to realize most of the time that is beyond the author's control. With that being said, I have enjoyed this series. I love the author's writing style and have really fallen in love with the complexity of her characters. I cannot wait to see how it all ends.
