Mr. Wrong Number by Lynn Painter


Mr. Wrong Number had me laughing. Olivia is having a rough go at things in life. Her boyfriend broke up with her and she lost her job. She needs a place to stay. Her brother Jack and his roommate agree to let her stay with them for a month. Olivia moves in only to find out that Jack's roommate is Colin. Colin and Jack have been best friends forever. Olivia and Colin have never had the best relationship. Their relationship is based on trading insults and wisecracks. 

Olivia vents to her anonymous friend that she has connected with via a wrong number. Their connect is based on not knowing the other making it easier to be open and free with their thoughts. This makes for some real and intimate "talks".  

This book is a page turner which makes it easy to read in one or two days!
