“Hey, at least I’m self-aware. I know I’m messed up.”

Confession, I read Misassumption as a standalone. I’ve only recently discovered the author and I’m really enjoying her books. I was late to the party as far as the Adamson siblings are concerned, I started at the end, with the youngest, Evie.

I admit that I was intrigued by the synopsis. What is it that everyone thinks they know, but don’t? What is her secret? Well, I can tell you one of them. She’s not as sweet and innocent as they think she is. Did you see that sexy book cover? Damn! Does she look shy to you?

I imagine that if I had some big badass brothers like she does that I’d keep my lover(s) a secret as well…for their safety. No wonder she doesn’t bring a date to the family dinners, right? Yes, I’m joking, but it’s not all fun and games. Evie is broken. She keeps her pain hidden from most. Though, there is someone who knows and understands. It’s funny because he’s misunderstood as well. Being messed-up is something they share. Their reputations are not accurate, they are misassumptions that they don’t bother to correct. It’s easier to allow the world to label them as they like and keep their secrets.

The author did a brilliant job of touching on a touchy topic with this story. She helped me to understand things I wasn’t previously aware of and opened my eyes. I’ve gained a new appreciation that I will carry with me going forward. I choose to live in the world of romantic fiction, but that doesn’t mean what’s shared is not true. Thank you Nicole Dykes.
