Imperfect Love #4
Through His Eyes
Lachlan The moment I saw her walk through the door of Forbidden Ink, I knew she was the one.
With her wide hips, thick thighs, and perfect breasts, she’s every man’s wet dream.
Add to that her dark, soulful eyes, pouty lips, and a body covered in gorgeous art, and I knew I needed to make her mine.
She’s a walking contradiction of sass and strength and determination, hidden by insecurity and self-doubt.
She’s everything I could ever want or need, but she doesn’t see what I see.
I want to take away her pain. To be the one to make her laugh, to make all her dreams come true.
I need to prove to her that I’m not him, that no matter what, I’ll be right there beside her. Loving her.
If only she could see herself through my eyes, she would understand we were made for each other.

39-year-old Quinn is a single mother who has been in an abusive relationship for a long time. Even years after, the damage her husband caused her self-confidence still exists - so when she finally meets a man who is really interested in her, with her curves and all, she fails to understand why. 💔
27-year-old Lachlan is an Irish tattoo artist and the PERFECT MAN! (Sometimes even too perfect). Not only is he super hot (except for that long beard... I don't like that 🙈😂) but he also has a huge heart. He is a patient gentleman, but also super masculine. 🔥🔥🔥
When Lachlan meets Quinn, his boss's sister, he is mesmerized by her beauty and sass but Quinn pushes him away - and so, what begins as a cat and mouse game, becomes much more. Lachlan breaks Quinn's walls, helps her build her faith (in men and herself) - and makes her see herself... through his eyes. 😭❤👀
📚 “𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈’𝐦 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐮𝐜𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭, 𝐈’𝐥𝐥 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮." 📚
Although the first chapter was quite clichéd (as Quinn said herself) the plot definitely develops. There was a lot of humor and steamy moments - but despite the lightness, there was lots of depth too! 💪
However, Quinn's reluctance to start a new relationship, after all she's been through, was believable, especially when it comes to a guy much younger than her - but after a while I was kind of exhausted about her insecurity. Plus, sometimes Kinsley, Quinn's daughter, did and said things that were too mature for her age that made me roll my eyes. 😬
So if you want to read a fun book that proves that love is not just about the outside beauty - with age gap, a single mother and an amazing tattooed man - THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! ❤❤❤
This may be my first Nikki Ash's book, but I'm totally going to look for more! 👑
• I listened to the AUDIO version. 🎧 The female narrator was good, but the male was too robotic.

The romance between younger hero and older heroine is something new for me. The blurb of Through His Eyes got my attention. An abusive relationship usually promising a good dose of angst.
I felt disappointed. The story feels flat. Although Miss Ash tried so hard to focus on the heroine as a survivor, she felt flat. Quinn at the end becomes a needy, weak and self doubt heroine. The shortcoming of this book is covered by Laclan sweetness. Now he is such a sweet man.
Overall this is OK read for me.
3 stars

Through His Eyes is my first Nikki Ash book and dang... can she write a hero! Lachlan was fantastic and by far the best part of this book. I adored him and his relationship with Quinn's daughter. Quinn's backstory made me sad and I felt for her. I've never experienced anything like she went through but I can imagine it's pretty traumatic. I had to constantly remind myself of her previous trauma through the book, specifically the end because I was getting frustrated with her. Overall I enjoyed this one a lot. It had a lot of great troupes- single mom, age gap romance (older woman). A quick read with a lot of heart.

Through His Eyes touched me on a whole different level. This story sends a powerful and inspiring message and the raw emotions are amazing. Quinn and Lachlan have a story that is not only sweet and sexy but is guaranteed to steal your heart completely. Lachlan and Quinn are two very special characters and I fell so in love with them for different yet for the same reasons.
This story was a combination of a lot of different topics. It was truly an amazingly written story. The storyline sucked me in and made me feel so much for these great characters. An heartfelt and heartbreaking story of healing and finding ones true worth. It was addicting and captivating. I had goosebumps while reading it.
There is so much to this story. It was raw, it was beautiful, it was sweet, funny, but held so much emotion. I'm in awe of this author and her amazing way with words, making us feel every emotions through her writing. Through His Eyes is outstanding, all-consuming, sexy, and an emotional read that I absolutely loved! This book is a must read.

Talk about the FEELS.
All. Of. Them.
The laughter, the tears, the frustration and the swoons were all kinds of real in this baby and I’m really wishing that there were more words to read because I NEED more of Quinn, Lachlan, Kinsley and their crazy wonderful friends!
I adored Quinn. While I may not have experienced what she has, I connected with her. I empathized with each and every vulnerability she had and rooted for her to find a way to work past it all because she is this vivacious, sweet and strong woman who deserves the world. Lachlan ~ Serious SWOONS! This man is just everything. He’s sweet, sensitive, charming and stubborn. Dear lord, is he stubborn, but in the best of ways, and had me at melting practically from the start.
Their journey to their HEA is a bumpy one considering all the roadblocks in their way, but I loved every moment of it. I loved watching as they got closer and Quinn allowed Lachlan in and showed him not only the strong woman she was, but the vulnerable one as well and by doing that started to truly take back her life and see how amazing she truly is. And Lachlan, he was a rock. He was right by her side to be whatever she needed him to be. And then there is Kinsley, that little girl is a spitfire and brought so much goodness to their story, it’s crazy.
This baby just hit all the right buttons and I simply devoured every word. There are some situations that come up that could be triggers for some, so beware. And though you can read this a stand-alone, I highly recommend that you read the Imperfect Love series first. This is set in the same world and you will be around quite a few of the characters throughout the story and truly give you the full meal deal when it comes to all that Quinn and Lachlan go through. And as much as I loved the epilogues, I am crossing my toes that this isn’t the last time we’ll see these characters.

I'm being a little generous with the rating, but only because the hero is so loyal. Otherwise, despite this having all the tropes I love, I was super bored and the heroine annoyed tf outta me. It was almost a dnf, but I kept reading because I'm procrastinating😅 Now off to do my final research proposal that's due in a hr and half 🏃♀️
Safety:
Om drama- none
Ow drama- hero's ex gf appears a couple time and causes drama through h's insecurities
No cheating

I feel like when it comes to me writing a review for a Nikki Ash book, I sound like a broken record. All I do is gush about how amazing her books are. How flawless her writing is. How connectable her characters are. How amazing the chemistry is. How gorgeous the covers are. And its all true. For every single book by her.
I thought I was in love with her last book, and that I possibly couldn't love another as much. Just like I felt with the book before that one, and the one before that one. It's a never ending road of getting better and better, and falling more and more in love.
I knew from the get go that Quinn was my spirit character. (Yes I so made that up.) ;) I couldnt pin point the why's, because we hadn't seen much into her, but I just knew. And I was not wrong. I honestly dont think I have ever connected with a character as much as I have with my Quinny. To see so much of myself, in such a beautifully written character, had my heart breaking and mending all at the same time. I marveled in the strength Quinn had, even when she felt she didnt. I cringed and felt my gut sink when she felt every last insecurity. I praised and celebrated when she got through those insecure thoughts and found herself and see how truly amazing she is. She is every single woman, who struggles every single day with the insecurities this world forces and pushes on us. The world's perfection is not the same in everyone's eyes, and that's exactly what she finds in Lachlan's eyes.
I didn't think Nikki could write a more perfect male character than Killian. But once again, Nikki has proved she can and will. Lachlan is the man every woman deserves and should have. That Irish hunk, with his patiences of a saint and heart of gold, was everything Quinn needed. He showed her that one man's trash, is another man's treasure. It all depends on how that person sees. Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder.
I dont think Nikki could every write a more perfect book. This book has taken ahold of my heart and has wrapped its self fully around it. This is one that will stay with me for the long haul and I will never forget. It is entwined into my soul and will forever stay there.

🌟Brief Summary:
-Quinn has an abusive cheating husband who continually tears down her self esteem.
She finds out she is pregnant after years of trying only to also find out he has been cheating. As she is trying to decide what to do….stay or leave…… he’s a a victim of a crime and he passes away.
With a fresh start Quinn decides to move back home and raise her daughter.
-Fast forward 5 yrs and Quinn has worked hard to heal while her being a single mom.
One day she goes to her brothers tattoo shop where she meets the new tattoo artist Lachlan a 27 yr old hottie who is way to young and way to forward for our insecure heroine. But he is willing to fight with her and for her and her daughter.
-Part of a series but can be read as a standalone.
‼️ Opinion‼️:
-This was a really light sweet read. I enjoyed most of it, well Lachlan really. He was super sweet, understanding, open, patient and hot as hell. He knew what he wanted and he went for it. I especially loved how he was with mini Q. He saw her as his own and he was amazing with her. Had it not been for him fighting to be with Quinn this relationship would not have gone anywhere.
-As for Quinn, I liked her I didn’t love her. I get all her insecurities but at some point she needed to let go of some of the things that held her back and it got tiring to read. She didn’t really show growth till the very end
She was a good mom and I felt bad for what she went through but in 5 yrs she should have been doing therapy and working more on herself. Also she focused way too much on her age and weight.
-I’m not a fan of reverse age gap I think this would have been more believable if they were a few year closer in age.
Also I’m all for curvy girl trope. It was a bit to much of a factor to our h but I also understand her trauma.

She pops back up all the way from Ireland and tries to cause problems and gives Quinn snippy remarks. Mtv me this was dumb. Not only is Quinn’s ex dead so we can’t have any OMD but this OW has been out of his life for 6 months and it just seemed to be there to bring up the h insecurities.

Finished this book yesterday and I am STILL experiencing its telling. One word to describe this story would be “YUM”. Of course I can’t just leave it at one word so let me tell you more. Lol.
This book is a single mom, older woman, younger man romance. I have never read a book where the two main characters JUST talking are so darn SEXXXYYY. Eek! I am DY-ING thinking about it.
HOLY HOTNESS how can you not love a twenty-something guy, Irish accent with TATTOOS. Swoon! Yes my mouth is watering. His name is Lachlan. OMG yes Ms. Ash you had me at his name.
Quinn is my girl though. She is late thirties with a sweet little girl, Willow, who is adorable. Quinn is really dealing with some self esteem issues due to her ex. I am am NOT sorry that dude is dead. Yep kind’a harsh but I don’t care. Read the first part of this story and you will agree. I love experiencing Quinn’s journey of trying to change the negative scripts in her head and learning to like herself again.
Lachlan is sexy, sweet, and persistent with Quinn. His appreciation of Quinn and all her curves makes me more than happy. When he calls her daughter Mini-Q, my ovaries exploded.
Quinn’s family is amazing and a beautiful addition to this story. Her backstory with her two protective big brothers is so touching.
Yikes I could talk about this book forever. Truthfully, I have only hit the tip of the iceberg on all the wonderful happenings in this story. Sigh. You have to read it. SO GOOD! It is deserving of all five stars and more. Happy Reading Everyone! XOXO

September 7, 2019Without discounting the h’s issues or the severity of it, it was exhausting to read about her wallowing in self pity. It was really hard to read about her self deprecation.

First of all, I love the book title. It sets the tone for the book and had me considering something uncomfortable that I don’t like to think about. Who among us doesn’t view herself through a myopic lens, and most often a critical one, at that? It’s easy to focus on the negative and become our own worst critic. But what if we saw ourselves through the eyes of someone who focuses on the positive, the good, and the beautiful parts of us? Someone who sees those less desirable pieces and idiosyncrasies and embraces it all? Even better, what if that someone was us? For that reminder alone, this book is worth reading.
Lachlan is such a swoony hero, wise beyond his years with a big heart, and a man who goes after what he wants. And he wants Quinn. We’ve gotten to know Quinn a little bit from her brothers' books, but little did we know what an emotionally abusive marriage she was in or what it’s done to her image of herself. Gone is the strong, confident woman, leaving behind insecurities and low self-esteem. But Lachlan somehow has a way of looking at Quinn and seeing not only the woman she used to be but the woman she can become.
While I think the message of this book is important, the message would have been stronger if we had been able to observe more of Quinn making changes and working on her insecurities. Giving the reader a chance to see Quinn's growth and self-improvement transpire would have made for a more inspiring hit to the heart. We get a small amount of it near the end, and then see the results somewhat in the epilogue, and I loved getting a glimpse of these characters a few years down the road. Quinn and Lachlan's story is endearing, heartfelt, steamy and humorous, and it provides the perfect escape. And then there's Lachlan. He's all the reason you need to start this one ASAP. ;)

Quinn and Lachlan's story is endearing, heartfelt, steamy and humorous, and it provides the perfect escape. And then there's Lachlan. He's all the reason you need to start this one ASAP. ;)

How do I put into word what this book did to me?
Firstly, I love single parent romances, and in an age gap, I was kind of sold. That was the main reason I picked the book. But I can tell you now it's not what kept me reading it. I went in to this book not expecting what I got and I am glad that is the case. This book was full of hope, sweetness and a bit of sexiness. It grabbed me by the heart and held tightly right to the end.
Lachlan was sweet, he was kind, he was loving, but he had a dominant side that I drooled over. He was young too, but it seemed as though he was probably more mature than most his age. Another plus in my books.
Quinn was strong, she was a mother, she struggled at times, and she struggled with her insecurities from things that happened in her past but she always pushed past and got on with it. She was the type of person I would admire, and I admire the author for creating such a strong heroine. Truly one of a kind.
These two together were sexy as hell, they were sweet and I couldn't help but fall in love with them. I loved Lachlan so much and loved how he was with Quinn...
There is so much to this story. It was raw, it was beautiful, it was sweet, funny, but still, held so much emotion. I devoured it within a day and I kind of need more of these two! Nikki Ash just gained a new auto one-click fan with this beauty. Outstanding, all-consuming, sexy, and an emotional read that I absolutely loved!
5 Stars!

TW for emotional abuse and discussion of weight/body image.
I was so excited to see that my library had this audio! Some of my friends love Nikki Ash and I got so excited when I started this and realized it was an older woman/younger man romance. The beginning is definitely very emotional as the heroine is constantly verbally abused by her husband and made to feel insecure about her weight. This insecurity follows her throughout the book as she feels not good enough for the hero when she meets him. I loved how she was a single mom and the hero was instantly attracted to her and that mean he also wanted to be close to her daughter too. The hero was so sweet and I love when the younger hero decides to pursue the heroine, no matter her reservations about the age gap. And he was a tattoo artist!? Yes, please! I did only give this four stars because of the conflict at the end and how the heroine decided to jump to conclusion instead of just talking it out with the hero. But this was such a fun read and I'm excited to try out more from this author!

No one, and I mean absolutely NO ONE does single parent romance as amazingly as Nikki Ash. I find myself constantly going back to reread her books just to get a fix because I’ve loved each and every one of them, but Through His Eyes touched me on a whole different level. I felt this book in my soul. Quinn and Lachlan have a story that is not only sweet and sexy but is guaranteed to steal your heart completely.
I related to Quinn on a level I did not expect. While what I’ve personally been through was slightly different than what she went through the words and harm thrown at me were so similar to what was thrown at her. I could honestly feel all she went through. I cried both tears of heartbreak and happiness for her so much. And then Lachlan. 😍 I could not get enough of the man. His heart was so big and he loved both Quinn and her daughter so fiercely.
I wish I could give this book a billion stars.

There is just so much to say about Through His Eyes. It’s absolutely another 5 star read by Nikki Ash.
I fell in deep serious love with this book. My favorite thing about it was Quinn (the heroine) and the realness her character portrays. She is every woman!!! There was no sugarcoating her pain and insecurities. She told a story of the immense power a significant other can have over our self-worth . I love that Nikki told this story from a prospective of all those woman who’ve been torn down, and then found the strength and courage to overcome it.
Then we have our Hero, Lachlan. He was so sweet and patient, persistent without being pushy. He gave Quinn her womanly power back, and he’s just the man every torn down girl needs. The way her loved on her body and continually told her how beautiful she was, made me smile and swoon like crazy.
Quinn met Lachlan at her brothers tattoo shop and from the moment he saw her he knew she was something special. Being a single mom who was just going through the motions of life, she didn’t think she had anything to offer Lachlan. Little did she know all she needed to give him was herself.
What I loved most about the way Nikki told this story, is the authenticity of it. Quinn struggles with what most women do. Not just body images, but life’s challenges in general. Being a mom to an adorable but sometimes stinker child, it’s tough. Coming to grip with growing older, no woman likes that. Being uncomfortable in our own skin and not where we want to be physically, I think most woman deal with that. And it wasn’t just a magical fix once she met a good man to help her through. Quinn still fell at times, even when she thought she was getting better, her insecurities found a way back in. And you know what... that’s real life! It’s an ongoing battle. This is why Quinn is one of the best characters I’ve ever read.
So, if you love great story lines, real-life, authentic situations, deep family love, single moms, adorable little girls, sexy tattooed men, and the power of healing through love and acceptance, this is the book for you.
One of my all time favorites reads!

What a beautiful story! Quinn has been in a abusive loveless marriage. A shocking moment happens but doesn’t mean she will forget everything. One day walking into the tattoo shop her family owns Quinn meets Lachlan sexy younger man that makes her blush with dirty thoughts. But who would want a her right? A book of strength and family. You are beautiful you are strong and you do deserve love. I really felt my soul with this book cause I am Quinn her personality everything about her is me and found myself a Lachlan too! Definitely a must read! 5/5 You are enough stars

If you have never read a Nikki Ash book before well you’re missing out! I had never till Through His Eyes and I feel like I need to binge read her other books.
Quinn has such a realness to her that I can relate to and makes me want to hug her! Her situation from the get go is one I am sure many women have been in and although I myself didn’t experience all of what she went through I can feel a connection with her character.
Lachlan is younger but is exactly what Quinn needs in her life. He has patience, humor, gentleness and love for her and Kinsley. He is not afraid to show her all the emotions he feels and even better his actions show her.
You will laugh, cry and root for this couple all the way through. You may also experience wanting to punch a few characters in the face. I did anyway.
Happy reading!

I go into a Nikki Ash book knowing I’ll enjoy it. She always has great storylines and lovable characters.
Single mom.
IRISH. BEARDED. TATTOOED. HUNK.
What’s more to want?!
The reason this wasn’t a five star for me was all personal and all about the trope: age gap.
I have a love-the relationship with age gaps. I love them (when they’re not icky) but sometimes... they get a little repetitive and annoying because it’s:
“you’re too young for me... let’s stay together”
I’m so old... but I want you”
“you can find someone better/younger... but I want you to want me”
And I get to the point where I’m just DUDE! MAKE UP YOUR MIND! HE FINE AS HELL SO SEX HIM UP AND MARRY THAT MAN”
Anywho. I really liked it! It kept me entertained and turning the page (or tapping the screen 😂) until I got to the very end.
Lachlan is the ultimate book boyfriend! And what a babe!! *drools*

Through His Eyes is absolutely perfect!! Nikki Ash does it again! She delivers a phenomenal book with one of the most relatable characters you will ever find!
Quinn Crawford is absolutely my favorite heroine. She is the most relatable character I have ever read. Every self doubt, every insecurity, every bad thought she feels about herself just hits home.
Quinn is the single mother to a five year old daughter. Her husband died before finding out she was pregnant, but he was an awful man who made her feel horrible about herself. When she talks about herself the way she does, I couldn't help but think "yep, that's exactly how I feel."
Lachlan Bryson, the tattooed Irish tattoo artist that comes barreling into Quinn's life at full speed and changes her life forever. Lachlan is what Quinn needs most in life. He sees how perfect she is from the very first glance. Lachlan gives me hope that maybe there are some good guys left out there in the world and I just need to wait and find mine.
I love that Lachlan doesn't see Quinn as a single mother, or older. He looks at her like she's the only woman on the planet. He sees her as something more, something beautiful and something worth fighting for. When she doubts, he loves her harder. The Quinn that you see through his eyes is absolutely perfect the way she is.
I love any and all Nikki Ash books, but Quinn's story I feel like hit home more than any other book I have read. Ash grabbed onto all the self doubt and insecurities I have and put them down on paper. Through His Eyes spoke right to my heart.
Through His Eyes gave me all kinds of feelings. Nikki Ash is one of the best at single parent romances. And she always leaves you needing more. All the stars for Lachlan, Quinn, and Nikki Ash!

So powerful! The raw emotions are beyond amazing. Nikki has an unbelievable talent of immediately drawing you in and allowing you to experience her characters first-hand. I love all of Nikki’s books, but Through Her Eyes has moved into the top spot. What an inspiring message - easily one of my favorite books of 2019!
Quinn is a single Mom who doesn’t always see her worth. Her past experiences have gotten into head and will not allow her to fully live. When Lachlan seems interested in her, she always has an excuse as to why he isn’t. How much will it take for her to see that not all men are like her ex-husband?
Lachlan’s heart is made of gold and his patience is that of a saint. Even after Quinn continues to tell him no, he stays the course and helps her see what everyone else sees. She is funny, smart, amazing, sexy and most importantly beautiful! He lifts her up so she can allow herself to heal; she has to be the one to fix what she thinks is broken.
Once Quinn starts to realize not every man is a liar, she slowly regains pieces of herself she hid away in fear. Lachlan’s love allows her to soar and to see herself in a new light. Her broken soul is becoming whole once again.
The love in this book…could Lachlan be any sweeter? Holy hotness! His love not only for Quinn but for her daughter too, I am not sure which made me swoon more. And the updates…the UPDATES… for all the Imperfection Love series gang!! It is very hard to let go of bond you form with each and every one of these characters.
As a bigger girl, I can fully relate to Quinn. It doesn’t matter how much confidence you have, there will always be that little voice that says you are not good enough. Someone will always be thinner, prettier, funnier… I can only imagine how bad that voice would be after being in a relationship like hers. We as women need to remember that everyone has their own insecurities; just because we think someone is prettier doesn’t mean they aren’t insecure about something too! I hope each and every one of you finds your Lachlan because “you are enough”!

Through His Eyes is LIVE and in KU!
What you you need to know: This is a stand-alone single mom romance with an age gap. There’s a sexy, bearded, Irish, tattoo artist, and it is dedicated to all of the women who have never been told YOU. ARE. ENOUGH.
Amazon: http://bit.ly/2Zpaaxn
Goodreads link: http://bit.ly/ThroughHisEyesNA
◾️Synopsis ◾️
The moment I saw her walk through the door of Forbidden Ink, I knew she was the one. With her wide hips, thick thighs, and perfect breasts, she’s every man’s wet dream.
Add to that her dark, soulful eyes, pouty lips, and a body covered in gorgeous art, and I knew I needed to make her mine.
She’s a walking contradiction of sass and strength and determination, hidden by insecurity and self-doubt. She’s everything I could ever want or need, but she doesn’t see what I see.
I want to take away her pain. To be the one to make her laugh, to make all her dreams come true. I need to prove to her that I’m not him, that no matter what, I’ll be right there beside her. Loving her.
If only she could see herself through my eyes, she would understand we were made for each other.

Must-read and top favorite of 2019!
I swear everything that this author writes is gold! This book was... the word to do justice hasn’t been invented yet. We’ll leave it at that. Just know that you won’t want to miss this one. I wholeheartedly LOVED it. I will forever treasure it and will be rereading it soon.
I kept tearing up, I swooned sooo hard for Lachlan and my heart broke several times with Quinn. Don’t get me started on Kingsley- I loved that little girl. Revisiting others of Nikki’s main characters and the epilogue were some of my favorite parts. Basically the whole book was perfect. Don’t question me- just read it! As for me, I will be patiently (not really) waiting for Nikki’s next release!

Хареса ми идеята, не съм възхитена от изпълнението. Главната героиня не мога по никой начин да повярвам, че е на 39. Звучи на не повече от 29. Всичко останало може спокойно някой изкуствен интелект да го генерира, толкова безидейно и клиширано беше. Не препоръчвам освен ако не е последната романтична книга на света. Тогава да, тогава четете на воля.

This was a case of love restoring another’s faith and confidence in themselves.
Quinn was married and it wasn’t a good relationship. As a single parent, she focused her energy on being a great mother to her daughter and wanted no part of the young tattoo artist’s flirtations with her. Lachlan was determined to get Quinn to give him a chance and see what they could be together. I loved Lachlan so much. He was just a great guy. He was patient, loving, kind and consistent which was exactly what Quinn needed. Quinn’s self esteem ans confidence had been decimated and it was refreshing to see Lachlan help her to find her inner strength again.

Through his Eyes by Nikki Ash
“Finding real love, 5 stars”
What you need to know about Through his Eyes…. age gap, sexy hero, broken heroine, single parent. Ash freaking killed it with Through his Eyes. Ash just keeps getting better and better as she goes, finding her groove. My heart ached for Quinn. I wanted to bundle her up and cuddle her to death, or at least until she was put back together. And in some ways, that’s what Lachlan did. I loved Through his Eyes and honestly think you will too. Just be prepared to have your heart ache and swoon.
Quinn is not the girl she used to be. Her husband broke her slowly but surely in the worst way. Things have changed though. She’s trying to heal and pick up her broken pieces but she has no desire to attach herself to a man again. Until she meets Lachlan. There is just something about him that calls to her. Will her insecurities prevent her from living her best life?
Lachlan is one of those guys who knows what he wants and when he sees Quinn and Mini-Q he knows without a doubt that he wants them. Only its going to take a little work to make Quinn see things his way. While he slowly falls for Quinn he falls for her daughter as well. Will Quinn’s past prevent them from getting their happily ever after?
