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.
A clean slate.
Endless opportunities.
All is going according to plan. Until she meets the drop-dead gorgeous cooking instructor who delights in adding to her misery.
Through the Lens is an amazing contemporary romance read that everyone will enjoy! The story also encompassed more than I had anticipated and it made the story that much more relatable and enjoyable.
Maggie has been pondering changing careers when she realized modeling was not where heart truly was. After a very unexpected leave from modeling, she moves to live with her sister to try and figure out what she wants to do next.
Desmond has always known his passion in life is cooking and photography. He runs a very profitable and productive culinary school but wants to take it one step further. But when his photography catches the eye of a prominent producer, his dreams are closer to coming true.
I enjoyed this story from start to finish. Desmond and Maggie’s story is such an authentic one, it is impossible not to fall in love with their story. They go from being fre-enemies to coworkers to more. I love how things progressed naturally and organically between them. I enjoyed all the banter and interactions between them as is just added to the chemistry bubbling underneath the surface.
Through the Lens was exactly what I needed right now. Everything flowed perfectly with the right amount of angst, humour and steam. Ms. Allen truly knows how to make her characters and stories so relatable and real. You can never go wrong when reading a K.K. Allen book.
K.K. published her first contemporary romance, Up in the Treehouse, in 2016 which went on to win the Romantic Times 2016 Reviewers’ Choice Award for Best New Adult Book of the Year.
