Best Kind of Broken by Chelsea Fine is the exciting first installment in her New Adult Series, Finding Fate. When I read the synopsis of this book it caught my attention right away. Childhood friends who don’t talk anymore, awkward tension and sexual frustration ??? Yup! Count me in!!! What I never expected was to find a nice dose of humour in this emotional and heartbreaking story. Pixie’s inner monologue had me LOL quite a few times. This book had it all : tender and funny moments, angst, romance, hot chemistry and a beautiful love story. Within a few pages, I knew that I was going to fall hard for Pixie and Leaves <3Pixie and Levi have known each other since childhood. Pixie never had a real family at home. Her mom is a cold and heartless person who never showed her any signs of affection. When she meets Levi's family she finally knows what the meaning of the word FAMILY is. With them she feels safe. Growing up together is one of the best things that has happened in her life. When an unexpected tragedy leaves them both broken, they take different paths to try to forget about the heartbreaking outcome of that night. Hours turn into days and days turn into months as they try to forget about that horrible night. When Pixie needs to find an apartment and a job, the doors of  the Willow Inn, which is owned by her aunt Ellen,  open up and she can finally call a place HOME. What she never expected was to find Levi working and living under the same roof has her. As days go by, the tension between grows and they can’t deny that they need to discuss about what happened. But, bringing up the past is painful and heartbreaking for both of them. The journey to finding each other again will be filled with tears, fights and gut-wrenching confessions, but the more they try to stay away from each other, the more the love that lives behind all those layers of pain pulls them back to one another.I absolutely LOVED this book!!! The first chapter left me with a huge smile on my face and I knew that this story was going to be memorable. Pixie and Levi are two remarkable characters that captivated me from the start. It’s my first time reading a book from Chelsea Fine so I really had no clue what to expect. I’m pretty much obsessed with the NA genre and I try to discover has many new authors as possible. I’m really happy I added Best Kind of Broken on my TBR list. I will definitely be reading the other books in this series and adding her previous books to my TBR list. I could not put this book down!! Chelsea Fine wrote a real page-turner!!! I was anxious to see what happened in their past that left them so broken. Oh, boy!! When I found out I was an emotional mess! They lived in darkness for so long that my heart was happy when they finally found the light at the end of the tunnel. In every moment of darkness we always have to look for that ray of light that can save us.Pixie and Levi have AMAZING chemistry together! Woweeee!!!! What goes on in the east wing of the Willow Inn stays in the east wing of the Willow Inn *Ahem* Those two know how to steam up a bathroom! ;) Pixie and Levi are perfect for each other! They have overcomed their fears and insecurities to find their way back to each other. It was beautiful to see their friendship turn into a beautiful love story. We got a little sneak peek about the next book in the series, which will be Perfect Kind of Trouble. This will be a book about Kayla and Daren. We don’t know much about Kayla yet, but Daren hit a level of douchery in Best Kind of Broken. I was really upset with the way he acted. But, I’m still intrigued to find out his story. By the little glimpse we got of these two in BKOB I am positive that this will be another exciting book! I’m ready for my next stay at the Willow Inn! Haley better write down my reservations for a room in the east wing, I’m sure that Levi will have all the renovations done by June ;)I give, Best Kind of Broken, by Chelsea Fine 4.5 funny, flirty, touching, fight-for-what-you-want, friends-to-lover stars! This series is off to an amazing start! I can't wait to see what's next  ;)
