11 Ways To Gift Luxury
Take a cue from Gideon Cross and Eva Tramell, billionaire power couple from The Crossfire® Series, who live a lifestyle of luxury and sophistication and give gifts accordingly.
1. Waterford Martini Glasses
“My favorite housewarming gift was Waterford martini glasses. To me, it was just the right blend of luxury, fun, and usefulness.”
2. Armagnac
“He held a tulip glass of some liquor that he warmed between his hands, ‘Take a drink of your Armagnac, angel. I think you’ll need it.'"
3. Platinum Ring with Black Diamonds
"I hadn’t designed the ring Gideon wore, but I’d searched six shops before I found the right one. It was platinum studded with black diamonds, and it reminded me of my lover, with its cool masculine elegance and bold, dominant style."
4. Knipschildt's Chocopologie
“A black town car pulled up with Clancy at the wheel. Paul opened the rear door for us and we climbed in, squealing when we found a box of Knipschildt’s Chocopologie on the seat.”
5. Luxe Coffee Maker
“’Keep looking at me like that,' he warned, leaning casually into the counter and sipping his coffee. ‘See what happens.’
'I’m going to lose my job over you.’
'I'd give you another one.’"
6. Black Magic Roses
“I’d asked Angus to place an order for black magic roses to be sent to Gideon’s office with the note: You’ve got me under your spell. I’m still thinking about you.”
7. DB9 Aston Martin
“Gideon had been right about the DB9. As I watched the parking attendant pull the sleek metallic gray Aston Martin to a stop in front of me, I thought it was pretty much Gideon on wheels.”
8. Petrossian Osetra Caviar
“Gideon came to me, tilting my chin up to press a kiss to the tip of my nose. ‘I’ll lay out a T-shirt for you on the bed. Caviar and vodka sound good to you?’
‘Well…that’s quite a step up from pizza.’
He smiled. ‘Petrossian Osetra.’"
9. Engraved Pen
“I set the photo down and picked up the pen, turning it over to see the GC engraved on the barrel. ‘You superstitious or something?’
’It was my father’s.’"
10. Armand de Brignac
“Angus slid behind the wheel and we headed out, breaking into a bottle of Armand de Brignac on the way.”
11. Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co. Watch
“The Art Deco–inspired timepiece sparkled with hundreds of tiny diamonds. The band was a creamy satin and the mother-of-pearl face was branded with both Patek Philippe and Tiffany & Co.”
