Mr. Wrong Number

By: Lynn Painter

Narrated by: Callie Dalton, Andrew Eiden

Things get textual when a steamy message from a random wrong number turns into an anonymous relationship in this hilarious rom-com by Lynn Painter.

Bad luck has always followed Olivia Marshall...or maybe she's just the screw-up her family thinks she is. But when a "What are you wearing?" text from a random wrong 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 turned into 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 the heat up or ghost her before things get messy.

Critic reviews

"This book made me burst out laughing while on the treadmill and I almost lost my balance and fell to my demise. So. Don't read it while running on the treadmill, because you WILL explode with laughter at Olivia's terrible luck, and you will absolutely swoon over Colin, and you will definitely fall in love with the two of them and root for them with all of your heart. One of my favorite romcoms, heavy on the 'com' and steamy on the 'rom'!"—Jesse Q. Sutanto, author of Dial A for Aunties

"Filled with laugh-out-loud situations and moments of heart-fluttering swooniness, Mr. Wrong Number is a true romantic comedy. I loved reading about Olivia's messy, passionate approach to life. And the sexual tension was off the charts! I'll read anything Lynn Painter writes and I'm already impatiently waiting for her next book."—Kerry Winfrey, author of Very Sincerely Yours

“If you’re in the mood for a laugh-out-loud, sexy rom-com about an unlucky young woman who moves in with her brother (and her brother’s hot roommate) while she attempts to get her life together—look no further. Painter’s hilarious voice and vibrant characters are a breath of fresh air in this highly enjoyable romance.”—BuzzFeed

predicable story, hard to listen to female narrated

Story was okay, but the female narrator was hard to listen to. Maybe it is just me but no,no,no make her stop!

cute story

Cute story, excellent narration! worth the credit for the witty text banter alone. Add in a feel good story, and you have a good time.

Best Rom Com of 2022 ... best audio book narrators. please see my full review on Good Reads or my IG page @angelsmomreads

super cute listen

This is a perfect choice after a heavy book. Olivia is a believable hot met express. Sweet spots of romance and nurturing a budding relationship without being a smutty disaster. Well written and funny and lovey and super cute. Enjoyed this one!

In a single word, perfection.

As a Nebraskan it’s wonderful to read a book set in my state with so many places I’ve been. The characters were delightful, so many ups and downs, twists and turns. This book was perfection. The mispronunciation of Creighton was the only negative in the audio version. I hope this author writes more adult fiction!

It could have been worse

The narrators were great of course. I love all things Callie Dalton. The storyline was cool, as in I really liked the concept of it; but the female lead got on my nerves! Her immaturity when handling things was just too much sometimes. I guess because I don't know anyone like that in real life she just seemed WAY too childish to be in an adult story/relationship. I like how the author tried to give her some depth when writing her profession, but the whole thing just seemed too unrealistic and teeny bopper- ish. But I finished it so that says something :)

Loved it!!!

Great story and characters, I love this audiobook! I’m going to check out more audiobooks by Lynn Painter.

Great, easy read

I really liked this book. It was funny and the main character was so self deprecating. This was a book so easy to listen to and I was eager to know how it ended. Lynn Painter is going to be my new “must read” author. My only complaint was that the woman who voiced the MC wasn’t the best

Such A Cute Story 🥰

I really liked this story. Colin & Livy are going to be one of my favorite couples. I liked the enemies to lovers trope in this book. Overall, I really enjoyed it.

Wonderful

Smart mouth, fun text, so much is going on with characters and same time so hot. At some point carelessness of main character bothered me but story was still good. Nice light and fun read.
