One phone call changed me.

Three simple words and I was shattered.

Damaged.

Broken.

Alone.

So I started over.

And my journey of rediscovery led me straight into his arms.

Chase Porter.

The stranger who showed me life from a different perspective.

But we both had secrets…

His would destroy my world.

Prologue

I was a horrible person.

        Truly.

        But I had goals, and he didn’t fit into them.

I didn’t know how to take back the words I’d said. They filtered through my brain like a bad dream that I just couldn’t awaken from. Just when they started to slowly slip away, they resurfaced. Rooted so deeply in my psyche, there was really no place for them to hide.

        If only I’d known the ramifications of my actions. If only I’d known how my decisions would hurt me beyond repair.

        But at the time, I couldn’t let him halt my progress. I was so close . . .

        “Are you in love with me, Aria? Do you want to be with me?” Parker asked, and my heart completely stopped. I had waited so long to hear those words, for him to see me as more than a friend.

        “No. I don’t want to be with you,” I replied. Even as the words left my mouth, I knew they were a lie.

        I didn’t just love him. It was so much more than that. So much more than love. He was my rock, my friend. He was the lifeline that ran through me.

        At the time, I thought I had no choice . . . I thought he would be able to see that after everything I’d been through I needed to succeed. I needed to make up for the loss of my brother Owen. In the end, though, my decisions were always toxic.

        Toxic to him.

Toxic to Owen.

        Toxic to everyone.

“No, I don’t love you.”

Those were the last words he heard as he turned and walked away.

        My heart tightened in my chest as the words replayed over and over again that afternoon. A record skipping that I just couldn’t turn off.

Then the phone rang.

Three words were uttered.

Three words that changed my life.

The phone slipped from my trembling hand, and I dropped to the floor.

I couldn’t swallow. I couldn’t scream.

Cemented in place.

My shoulders curled in, and I clutched my stomach through dry heaves.

I’d lost my soul mate, and now I’d lost my future.

Everything I’d worked for crumbled, and it all no longer mattered.

Laura's Review: 

First off, it is so difficult to find a new concept in the book world, I LOVE that authors are stepping up the game and mixing media  - like Colleen Hoover has done with music, Ava Harrison has done with photos Instagram. And Europe provides such the perfect backdrops to tell her story, too! There was so much I loved about this book - the journey, self-discovery, redemption - and of course, a swoon-worthy guy who was almost too perfect. I only wish we weren't kept in the dark for so long about what set off the whole journey to begin with because it prevented me from fully investing in what is otherwise a beautiful romance.

Through Her Eyes: 3.5/5 stars
