MISUNDERSTANDINGS took every single I emotion I had and
stomped on them. This is a good thing. I was completely
captivated and caught up in this story. I haven't had a book
make me laugh, swoon, or cry as much as MISUNDERSTANDINGS
did in a while. This is a beautiful story of how
misunderstandings can get in the way of life and love and
all
the ways you find yourself fighting to get a sense of
normalcy back.
Two years ago Brittni Mitchell walked away from her life,
and walked away from everything that had anything to do with
Justin Avery. Brittni is forced to return to Seattle for her
best friend's wedding and as fate has its way she gets
trapped in an elevator with none other than Justin. Now that
she's stuck in there with Justin it makes her remember a
past with him that she has spent a long time trying hard to
forget.
Justin was the kind of guy she had always swore she
would never date, a bad boy. Brittni was charmed by him and
quickly found she was falling for him and through a lot of
misunderstandings they both walked away with broken hearts
and a lot of hate for each other. Now that they are forced
together will they finally find out what really happened to
get them where they are today? Will they be able to forgive
each other for the things that hurt them so bad?
I picked MISUNDERSTANDINGS up late one evening and stayed up
until
the early hours in the morning because I could not put it
down and had to finish it. I was completely riveted by
Brittni and Justin's story. Brittni is someone I could
easily relate to and it was so easy being inside of her head
and getting pulled into the story. I felt like I was right
there and everything happening to her was happening to me.
Justin was definitely one of those bad boys that you can't
help but love. He was so good to Brittni and when things
started going south I really got emotional over these two.
Their relationship was one that I got very invested in and
found myself getting very anxious over when things would go
wrong. There were also plenty of happy swoony moments for
these two. There were so many scenes that left a huge, goofy
smile on my face and just made me filled with joy.
MISUNDERSTANDINGS was so much more than I thought it would
be overall. I knew the story would reveal some things about
the couple that messed up their relationship but I never saw
what it actually was coming and it completely undid me. I do
not cry often when reading but this book was so gut
wrenching and parts of it broke my heart right along with
Brittni and Justin. It showed me how easily not talking to
each other when it's most important can mess up everything
so quickly no matter how much these two loved each other.
If you love emotional reads and want something that will
definitely tap every emotion you have I would definitely
recommend MISUNDERSTANDINGS. After reading this book I would
read anything that Tiffany King wrote in a heartbeat.
SUMMARY
Just when she thought things were going up… Two years after a devastating breakup, Brittni Mitchell has
moved on from Justin Avery—or so she tells herself. But when
she returns to Seattle for her best friend’s engagement
party, Brittni finds herself the victim of a disastrously
timed elevator breakdown. She’s trapped with the last person
she wants to face, and forced to recount the past she
desperately wants to forget. She’s going to have to look back… When Brittni left her podunk hometown for a big city college
experience at the University of Washington, hooking up with
a guy like Justin Avery was not part of her plan. Between
Justin’s attention-grabbing tattoos, cigarette smoking, and
bad boy attitude Brittni quickly chalked him up as “Mr.
Wrong.” But his charm was unrelenting, and Brittni’s
decision to give Justin a chance quickly turned into the
worst choice she ever made. So that she might be able to move forward. Now she’s stuck with Justin—literally—and the complicated
web of misunderstandings that tied up the truth for two
years is about to unravel.
