Misunderstandings

A Woodfalls Girls Novel

by Tiffany King

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.

He claimed we brought out the best in each other. He was right until he was wrong. Eventually, we would get to the point where we absolutely brought out the worst in each other.

***

Stuck in an elevator with her ex, who openly despises her, Brittni is forced to remember everything that led up to their breakup and Justin's obvious hatred for her. Over the course of a few hours, a truth so heartbreaking will be revealed. Everything will be laid out before them. When it is all said and done, will the two be able to overcome the heartache or will they just walk away from it all?

From the moment that Justin walks into the book and opens his mouth by calling Brittni a horrible name...I was hooked. Weird right? But that was the moment I was pulled in. What in the world would lead him to be so blatantly ugly to her, calling her a foul name? I had to know what secrets were hidden in their past. I had to know how 2 people, who seemed so in love, could lose it all. As we get closer to the fallout, you start to understand why. But really, not everything is as it seems.

I loved the switching from Present to Past. It was like you could see the story playing out in front of you. King did a fabulous job giving us hints each time the Past took over. I really enjoyed watching Brittni and Justin falling in love over time. It was sweet, it was romantic, and it had be grinning like a fool throughout most of the book. That is until the fallout happens. That is when I was hurting. I hated the way it all went down. I was mad at Justin and I was mad at Brittni. Both handled it ways that could have been better. But then I found my heart was seriously hurting also. Not only for Brittni, but for Justin too. There was a high mix of emotions that was abundant through the book. And I absorbed them all.

If you are looking for a book that is sure to get you thinking…sure to have you feeling, then this is the read for you. 5 Emotional, Heart Stirring Stars!
