Book Review: Mr. Wrong Number by Lynn Painter

Tweet

Bad luck has always followed Olivia Marshall... or maybe she's just the screwup her family believes she is. But when a "What are you wearing?" text from a random number turns into the hottest, most entertaining - albeit anonymous - relationship of her life, she thinks things might be on the upswing. Colin Beck has always considered Olivia his best friend's annoying little sister, but when she moves in with them after one of her worst runs of luck, he realizes she's become an altogether different and sexier distraction. He's sure he can keep his distance, until the moment he discovers she's the irresistible Miss Misdial he's been sort of sexting for weeks - and now he has to decide whether to turn up the heat or ghost her before things get messy. ~~~~ This was a very funny Romantic Comedy. I loved the concept of anonymous mistaken texting. I know all romance novels have to have SOME conflict/misunderstanding, but having two in this book bugged me. I'm usually bothered by one conflict that breaks the relationship, but having two in this story, though warranted, just irked me. In most cases, as in these, it's over-reaction. This whole story is based on communication, specifically by texting. But that "communication" did not carry over into a real life relationship. But otherwise a very fun, easy read.
