Blog Tour ~ Review: Best Kind of Broken by Chelsea Fine




Pixie and Levi haven't spoken in nearly a year when they find themselves working―and living―at the same inn in the middle of nowhere. Once upon a time, they were childhood friends. But that was before everything went to hell. And now things are... awkward.

All they want to do is avoid each other, and their past, for as long as possible. But now that they're forced to share a bathroom, and therefore a shower, keeping their distance from one another becomes less difficult than keeping their hands off each other. Welcome to the hallway of awkward tension and sexual frustration, folks. Get comfy. It’s going to be a long summer.

Ramblings...

Best Kind of Broken is heart breaking and heart warming story that makes you want to go up to the main character Levi and Pixie and give them a shake and a hug at the same time. Its a story that draw you in very so slowly, slowly feeding you in the brokenness, sadness, happiness and longing feeling into you as you read on.

Levi and Pixie have known each other since they were kids but circumstances in the past has push them apart but they can never forget and forgive what has happened and face each other. Since the accident distance has put them apart but faith has also drawn them back together once more. Now they both are force to work and live together under the same roof in Pixie's aunts motel,  that are put to the test and acknowledge each other. Things aren't the same as they were before, now there is lines that and barriers between them making everything that little bit more awkward and reserved between them. The past is left unspoken, same with their feelings, hidden and tuck away in there hearts.

Both showing a distance side of each other, the closeness once had, has become reserved. They don't quite know what to do with each other. Things take a turn and making thing face the unspoken pain and facing their fearing and hidden affection. It's like a second chance for them to connect and forget and restart they lives as a individual as well as one but they just don't know that they need each other to repair. Spark is always flying between them but someone just need to take that step and move forward.

Although I enjoyed reading the story but like I said it was a slow pace and sometimes I felt like it was a bit dragged, understand the author might be trying to build our emotions up but at times I just want to shout at them, especially when I think ok it's this part that it should happen but it doesn't then the end just happened. Although i do like the ending it was a but quick, supposes sometimes you just realise your last chance is slipping away from you and you got to take that action now.

A story that breaks you down and feeds you in all the emotion the character are holding to, going through into there story...you might be a little frustrated at times but you will enjoy it.
