“Epic enemies to lovers with a sweet, emotional kick. I was rooting for them from page one and have been left completely satisfied at the end. A top 2020 read for me!”- Harloe Rae, USA Today bestselling author
Through the Lens, an all-new angst-filled new-adult standalone from USA Today bestselling author K.K. Allen is available now!
“I had become his muse. What he didn’t know was that he had become mine too.”
Maggie Stevens is done feeling objectified.
After spending her entire life in the spotlight and climbing the high fashion ranks as a model in LA, she’s willing to leave it all behind for a fresh start. Moving to Seattle seems like the perfect solution.
A clean slate.
New adventures.
Endless opportunities.
All is going according to plan. Until she meets the drop-dead gorgeous cooking instructor who delights in adding to her misery.
Desmond Blake is determined to make a name for his culinary school—one that speaks to his hard work and undeniable passion.
When his food photography hobby garners attention from an unexpected source, his dreams are finally within reach. The obstacle he never sees coming is the sharp-tongued bombshell with a distaste for all he stands for.
When Desmond accidentally captures a photo of Maggie during a moment of weakness, he starts to see there’s more to the fashionista than meets the eye…
Sometimes what can be seen through the lens is a skewed version of reality. A bent perspective. Manufactured, therefore losing all sense of authenticity. And sometimes all it takes is a different angle to see what’s right in front of you.
My Review (ARC provided)
Five Stars!
Through The Lens was everything I want in a book. I needed this book, it made me laugh, swoon, tear up, and sweat.
I am a big fan of an enemies to lovers story and this one was a perfect amount of angst but fun. It wasn’t the kind of angst that had my heart pounding against my chest and I wanted to throw my Kindle but the perfect amount that kept me satisfied. I guess it was more banter then angst and the sexual tension between these two is scorching. The author does such a good job of telling our hero (Desmond) and heroines (Maggie) backstories, you feel for them and feel like you really got insight into what made them the people they are today. I love that in a book! I’m not going into the synopsis because you already have one.
This book had me pulling out my hair because their chemistry was so hot and I wanted something to happen and when it did it was on FIRE. These two were the perfect match. I couldn’t have been happier with the ending and getting all the characters from the first two books scattered throughout was a treat.
“Maggie you became my muse without even knowing it. Without even trying”
I highly recommend this book but the series as well, it can be read as a standalone but my advice would be to read in order. Every one of these books I devoured and you will not be disappointed. This was the perfect quarantine read!
