Griffin

After years of struggling as a single father to make ends meet, I’m finally content.

Until my son and I are barreled over by a puppy and its gorgeous owner.

The dog knocks my son down-literally-while the woman knocks me down-figuratively.

With her adorable accent and her taco-loving t-shirt, she has me reevaluating my life and wondering how content I really am.

Ava

No strings.

Simple fun.

That's all I was looking for.

But the day I met Griffin and his son, everything changed.

My walls are starting to crumble, piece by piece, as he and his son chip away at the concrete protecting my heart.

Now I’m questioning everything I thought I wanted and wondering if maybe he's worth the risk.

Ash’s reads are always a good time—and I’m loving all the ‘Fighting’ books because there’s crossover and I get to see how previous leads ended up. Very nice touch.

He’s a reformed manwh0re and she’s been burned one too many times, so she friendzones him. Oh and he has an adorable kid—making the whole thing light and fun.


Neighbors to lovers.
Hesitant FMC - she’s been cheated on a ton.
Single dad … with trauma.
Second and third chances.
Misunderstandings.
Mentions of su|cide.
Lots of past trauma, healing.

This was a short fun romance about 2 neighbors (Griffin and Ava) meeting when Ava was walking her dog.  Griffin’s son Levi loved her dog Maverick and this started their friendship.  Griffin wanted to be with Ava, but she was burned too many times by men and she didn’t want to get involved.  Griffin and Levi started breaking down her walls because Griffin felt she was the one.  I loved all the Taco shirts and puns.  I really enjoyed all the supporting characters in this book.  The narration was very good and made the story fun to listen to.

I eat up some Nikki Ash books. I just couldn’t connect with this one as much. It was very insta-lust/lovey and I know that the FMC had infidelity trauma, but it seemed like her insecurity was the only plot point. The smut was fantastic, as always. And it was a sweet story overall. But there wasn’t a lot of depth like Nikki’s other books.

Knocked Down is the 4th book in the Fighting Love series. This book is about Griffin and Ava and is told from both of their points of view. Griffin and Ava meet when Griffin's moves in next door to her and her dog goes up and greets him and Levi his young son.

They form a sort of friendship, and Ava is there to help take care of Levi when Griffin needs it. They start to get close, but Ava has had some dud relationships in the past before.

I loved seeing their relationships with Levi. Can Griffin show Ava he will be there for her no matter what? Or will something come between them and break them apart for good? Can Ava give Griffin her whole heart? Will they get their happy ending?

I enjoyed this book, as well as the rest in the series. I also liked all of the taco puns!

A great spicy neighbor next door romance.
Ava doesn’t want to get in another serious relationship since she was burned twice. That doesn’t mean she won’t play around.
Griffin, the protective dad, wants someone who would accept a package deal.
Griffin saw that Ava was different.
He noticed how she interacted with his son.
Levi is Griffin’s precocious 8 yr old. He had me laughing as he played swords, spilled family secrets and loved playing with Ava’s dog, Maverick.
Plenty of angst, doubts, laughter but in a true Nikki Ash story a HEA that will melt your heart.
Duncan Prescott and Marlaina Garrett bring laughter and joy to this wonderful story.

Nikki Ash pens another fabulous novel, a charming single dad/neighbors to lovers romantic comedy that captivates your attention, tugs at your heartstrings and puts a smile on your face. Life or being a single dad has not always been easy for Griffin, but he is finally at a place where he feels comfortable, his business is doing well and he is managing parenthood well, too. Ava has not had luck with romantic relationships, with her last two ending badly and leaving her with serious trust issues, but she kept her sense of humor, and it showed in her T-shirt collection. Her first time meeting her new neighbors is thanks to her dog, Maverick, who runs over to them and takes a liking, or more of a licking, of the young boy, successfully knocking him down and almost his dad, too. Maverick took both by surprise, and while he swept Levi off his feet, Ava swept Griffin off of his, feeling an instant attraction. Ava was not interested, but Griffin was not giving up on her. I enjoyed watching them get to know each other, Levi included, who Ava was great with. This is a wonderfully plotted story with the perfect balance of drama, low on the angst, humor with some hilarious scenes including sword fights, heartfelt emotions and steamy romance. Nikki Ash, thanks for another fantastic story, the laughs and the emotional rollercoaster ride.

🎧📚🎧  Duncan Prescott and Marlaina Garrett did a fantastic job bringing these characters to life, giving each a voice that was fitting, accent and all. I loved how they took their roles and ran with them, sounding believable and just as I imagined the characters would sound. Prescott nailed it as Griffin, showcasing his personality and demeanor perfectly, and Garret did the same as Ava, and was just as fabulous in her role. Both were great at performing the roles of the secondary/side characters, Levi included. Their pacing and tone were just right for the story, and their performance expressed all the characters’ emotions, allowing you to feel them all. They are entertaining storytellers, and their captivating performance keeps you glued to the story.

Great Story & Narration🎧 Sweet & Spicy!

Griffin and Ava are entertaining! Griffin is a single father who is protective of his son and who enters into his life. Ava is fun, caring and brings happiness to those around her even when she doubts herself. Griffin falls first but Ava isn't sure she can trust that he won't get bored/cheat. This was fun listen that had me laughing out loud at times. Great Single-Dad, He falls first, curvy girl, neighbors to lovers.

Taco about fun!

Griffin and Ava

Loved it. This is a single dad, next door neighbor romance. I listened to the audio and loved it. The narrators did a great job and I especially loved Ava's accent. As always with Nikki's stories it left me wanting more and I wished this was longer. Some previous are mentioned and make an appearance.

Love it
