Captivated By by Sylvia Day (Book 4) | Summary & Analysis
This is a Summary & Analysis. The fourth in a series, Sylvia Day’s novel covers the time between Eva's and Gideon Cross' elopement and their official, "real" wedding. During this time, only a few close friends know they're already married. While the novel can be read alone, there are many references to events and characters that occur in previous books; reading this instalment would be a richer experience in the context of the other novels. It is much more sophisticated than a traditional romance. The novel examines how a couple reconciles their powerful sexual attraction and their very complex personal needs.
Gideon Cross has everything he the most successful business in the world, amazing looks and a gorgeous wife he loves more than anything. However, because of his horrible nightmares and awful flashbacks to childhood abuse, it is hard for him to enjoy any of it. What's more, his psychological demons have made him need to control everything and everyone around him, and this need is threatening to drive away the woman he loves. They try to use sex to solve their problems, but it’s even more complicated than they thought.

Really!? After the wait, and the author comes out with this rushed and uneventful story? I'm glad I borrowed the book and didn't pay!!

Ok for the life of me I don't know why she wrote this book. This is a complete waste of time. Glad I didn't buy this book. It was borrowed. Meaningless...

Excellent summary book!
This summary book for Captivated By You is fantastic! Some people think that reading a summary book is cheating, but I feel that it lets me know if I'm going to enjoy the book or not. I've read so many books that start off good then just go bad. This book did an excellent job telling me a brief description of the characters and what to expect in each chapter. I feel a little connected to the characters already and I am really eager to read this book now. I highly recommend reading this summary book to see if you connect with this book as well.

waste of time. This book sucked. I ended up skipping half way thru to the end thinking it would maybe have a good ending...no dice.
