"New Adult that touched every single one of my emotions and left me wanting more"

Fresh Fiction Review

Misunderstandings

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.
