Tristan

Charlie is everything I want and didn’t realize I need.
It’s clear to me now, the woman I met at the club is only one layer of the woman I’m falling for.
I’m a fixer by nature, but for the first time, I wouldn't fix a thing.
I want her just the way she is.
Broken pieces and all.
Who needs the fairy tale, when we can have the reality.

Charlie

Tristan is everything I want, yet don't deserve.
He’s loving, protective, smart, an amazing father, and he’s onto me.
That's why I need to speed this story up and tell him everything.
So we can flip to the end of the book, and he and his daughter can move on to the next story.
One where they get a happily-ever-after.
Because there’s no story I’m a part of that ends in any way but tragedy.

I went right into listening to book 2 because of the way book 1 ended mentioning Tristan and a kid and her 5th birthday, like whaaaat. I did wish we got the scene where Tristan finally calls Bella and lets her back in. We had such a lead up and the blow-up and then all of a sudden they were fine. Didn't make me detract a star because the rest was awesome, but one of my pieces of feedback.

Like I mentioned in the previous OG series, the kids steal the show! Lexi was adorable and if I have kids one day I want them to be life her or have friends like her haha. The art aspect of this book was so fun, I loved how she kept drawing wherever haha and how she wanted to do what Charlie did and she makes it look easy. The contest was adorable and I was happy to see Charlie gets out of her darkness and be there like Lexi wanted. I understood Tristan protecting her, it was heartwarming to see. Now as we get to know more about Charlie and her trauma, things start making sense but it takes Tristan awhile to get the whole picture since Charlie is traumatized and hard to talk about it all. I am glad he broke down her ironclad walls and she let him in to help carry the burden. Her backstory was so sad but it always felt like something was off/was missing. I did call part of the twist BUT NOT THE REALLY BIG ONE. That made my jaw drop and I had to re-listen to that part of the chapter. So good, the author blew my mind.

The relationship between Tristan and Mason was amazing, I was itching to know more about him and we got glimpses of him (and the fish comments!!) and made him so endearing I was so eager for his book. The relationship he has with Lexi made my stomach butterflies do zoomies haha. Tristan is an incredible father, always thinking about what is best for Lexi and having to learn quickly after Gina dumped her for drugs, he was still a baby in that respect but he did a fabulous job and glad his parents were so helpful too. The way Lexi, love how unfiltered kids are and how precious their feelings are, anchored herself to Charlie and helped bring her out of her depression, along with Tristan, was amazing. I thought Tristan did a lot of growing up in this book too with his quick judgement (loved how Ashley put him in his place with his feelings about "dancers") and he stepped up and was there for everyone. I was so happy to see him get his HEA and seeing the new gen of families grow together and have those fabulous moments like the author did with the OG couples and families Loved seeing the other kids get some airtime (Tristan's sisters for example). Overall 4.5 stars for me for the story and the audio was even better than book 1.

Audio was great, the emotion in this one was harder to handle because of the abuse Charlie had to endure and the flashback we kept having. You felt so much anguish and guilt but so glad it all worked out in the end. I thought the male narrator really got into Tristan and Mason's heads (and even Charlie's horrible ex) and made it easy to imagine these characters in my head as the audio played. The only critique I would have is again, why make the OG crew sound so old! They still are young, not in their 70s or something haha. Also, some sounded like they were rich billionaires with their noses in the air which all the guys are super down to earth despite their money so that didn't line up. Besides that, great audio!

Mason's book was next and it was my fav of the whole series, review coming soon! 100% recommend but you NEED to read/listen to the other 6 books in this series before (OG and new series).

I just finished this audiobook and wow. Get ready for the unexpected! Tristen has had his heart broken a couple times but it started healing the day his daughter was placed into his arms. Tristen is so focused on loving and protecting his daughter (Lexi) that when he meets Charlie he isn’t sure if she’s someone who should be around his daughter. Charlie isn’t sure what to do with Lexi and Tristen when they come into her life. But Lexi and Tristen are just what Charlie needs while Charlie is the puzzle piece they are missing. I was so excited and happy for the ending while the set-up for the next book has me excited for what comes next in this series!

Clinched is the second book in the Fighting Love series. This book is about Tristan and Charlie and is told from both of their points of view.

Tristan is a single father, and has been though a rough past. However, now he will do anything for his daughter. Charlie has been through some things with her ex and isn't sure if she wants to try for love again.

I enjoyed reading about both of these characters. They have both been through some things, and both have growing to do. Will they both get their happy endings after the hardships they have been through in the past? I can't wait to listen to the next book in this series!

Wow! This was only my second book that I have read/listened to by Nikki Ash but she is quickly becoming a go to for me! I could not stop listening to this! Every chance I got I found an excuse to clean so I could listen. From the very beginning you can’t help but fall in love with Tristian he was so protective over Lexi and the ones he loves. He loves with his whole heart and goes all in with Charlie. Charlie was wonderful you could really feel her strength and her sadness. This one definitely made me feel all of the emotions and kept me on my toes through the whole book. I cried so hard at the end. That was a twist I did not see coming.
The narrators were amazing! They really brought these characters to life and did a wonderful job giving each character a voice that was fitting. They are definitely amazing storytellers. Thank you for the opportunity to listen to this I loved every minute of it.

Clinched is book two in the Fighting Love series. It's a single dad, second chance romance with some trigger warnings.

I absolutely loved Tristian and Charlie's story. These two were truly meant to be. You could feel their connection flying off the pages. It's heartfelt and full of emotion. You have haunting moments, loss, pain and trauma. But you also get a bit of humor, so much love, adorable daddy/daughter moments and healing for both characters. I loved this story and cannot wait for Mason's book next.

Gideon Frost and Marina Barrett really brought these characters and this story to life.

Emotional read...

I have absolutely loved this series written by Nikki Ash. So when I say this is my favorite of this series, it actually goes to the top as one of my all time favorites as well. This was heartbreaking and heartwarming rolled together. I loved the characters and was invested in their lives immediately, especially Tristan. I cried ugly tears and happy tears. The twist I didn't see coming was epic. The wedding was so beautifully precious. I only wish it could have been longer because I'm not ready to let these characters go yet.

Clinched by Nikki Ash is a single dad romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Gideon Frost and Marina Barrett. This is the second book in the Fighting Love series.

I absolutely love Nikki's books. She does an amazing job taking me on an emotional rollercoaster in every one of her books.

I really enjoyed the relationship that bloomed between Tristan and Charlie. I loved that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.

I can't wait for the next book in the series Takedown to be released on audio so I can get Mason and Mila's story.

Gideon and Marina did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you're looking for a single dad romance or contemporary romance.

I'm absolutely loving this series. These characters are so beautifully broken and they have my whole heart. I fell hard for Tristan in Bella's book, he was so sweet and perfect and while I knew Marco was meant for Bella, I was still so sad for Tristan...

Enter Charlie. After Tristan was done being a judgemental donkey *side eye* he fell so hard for Charlie. We knew she had something dark going on, but I don't think I began to grasp how bad it was for a while... Even when we got the whole truth I was stunned. I had two theories and one was correct, but my jaw still dropped. What an amazing twist and such a great story.

The audio was so good. I love Gideon Frost and Marina Barrett was fantastic as well.

Heartbreaking, but Wonderful

I REALLY liked this one! The story flows so well and the writing brings the emotions out of the listener. The characters are a few we met in book 1 of the series and there are also new ones. Charlie is amazing and has quite a backstory! Tristan is a great dad..better than I thought he would be after seeing him in book 1. Both together make for an outstanding story. This one is fun, crazy and emotional! It does have a little surprise near the end that shocked me.

Gideon Frost and Marina Barrett were excellent choices as narrators. They both encompassed their characters and I loved listening to them both.

I look forward to the next and I cant wait for Mila and Mason!

Outstanding Story and characters!

Clinched is book 2 in the Fighting Love series. It’s a single parent, MMA romance.

I adored Tristan and his daughter. I think Charlie fit their family perfectly. The chemistry between the two was so good and believable. I could feel the push and pull and they had me hanging on every interaction. The drama, twists and intimate moments were amazing and I couldn’t get enough.

Gideon Frost and Marina Barrett did a really great job narrating and bringing this story to life.

Sooo good!
