Cheeky Comebacks to Steal from Eva Tramell

She’s as strong-willed as she is vulnerable, as silly as she is determined and as sexy as she is smart.

Eva Tramell, the traffic-stopping heroine of Sylvia Day’s Crossfire series, is the best friend of your dreams. No matter the situation, she’s ready with a quick-witted comeback. Next time you find yourself in need of some verbal ammunition, look no further than our girl, Eva.
