Acclaimed romance author Nikki A. Lamers has been honored with the Literary Titan Book Award for her emotionally charged novel Breaking Barriers, a story that explores love, loss, and the courage to open one's heart again. Known for its blend of raw emotion, fiery passion, and heartfelt depth, Breaking Barriers continues to captivate readers and critics alike.

In Breaking Barriers, Lamers takes readers on a steamy and unforgettable journey of two souls bound by fate and fractured by fear. What begins as one night of wild abandon between Alex and Declan spirals into a life-changing connection when Alex returns months later, hiding a pregnancy and a heart guarded by pain. Declan, relentless in his pursuit of the woman who never left his thoughts, must fight not only for her love but also for the family they could become.

The Literary Titan Review praised Lamers' storytelling, writing,“Author Nikki Lamers has a knack for making the banter sharp and funny, then hitting you with a moment of raw vulnerability that catches you off guard. The book isn't shy about showing both their flaws, and that's what made their eventual growth satisfying. It's not just a romance. It's about forgiveness, breaking cycles, and finding the courage to build a life you actually want instead of one you think you're stuck with.”

Delivering equal measures of heat and heart, Breaking Barriers reminds readers that love often finds its way through the cracks of even the most carefully built walls. With richly drawn characters, sparkling dialogue, and an emotional core that resonates long after the final page, it is no surprise that Lamers' work continues to earn accolades in the world of contemporary romance.
