About this listen

Wrong number. Right guy?

Once upon a time, Maggie Cooper lived for adventure. Jumping out of planes was child’s play. Now she can’t even work up the nerve to ask out her coworker. For a bit of self-therapy, she begins to text her recently deceased mother’s phone - the only problem is that the number has been reassigned and for weeks she’s been unknowingly texting a stranger her deepest thoughts and feelings. There have also been some not-so-deep texts, like the ones about her appreciation for her coworker’s butt.

When Chase Beckett, the unsuspecting stranger who has more in common with Maggie than he’d like to admit, texts back, Maggie is beyond mortified. But message after message and night after night, Maggie realizes that Chase’s wit, charm, and advice are exactly what the doctor ordered. Is it enough, though, to get her back up in the sky? And what about her heart? Can she risk taking a leap of faith for the man on the other end of her accidental texts?

Great story and narration.

Good, clean, swoony, romance. Loved it. Didn’t want to put it down. And Holly Warren is one of the few narrators that I like and who doesn’t ruin the story for me.

Wonderful

It was a wonderful story about people grieving in their own ways and finding love. I cried and laughed with characters. The narrator was great and really made the story come to life. If I could I would have given this story 6 stars.

Sweet

Nice layers in a story that made a mistaken text more fun than it could have been

Wait for it...

The first few hours of this book had me thinking 'this is not what I thought it was going to be' but thankfully I was patient, and the texts started flowing!
But this book is so much more than texts and romance [I am all about the romance]. This book is also about grief and loss.

My only complaint is that to me the ending was rushed. I mean we went on this wonderful, detailed journey with Maggie and Chase but then in the end after the "typical" fallen out we only get a 10 minute 'wrap it up and put a bow on it' ending... don't get me wrong it was cute & swoon worthy, but I want more!!!

So freaking sweet

Having lost my mom myself, this was a real tearjerker. Just so happened to be listening during the anniversary. Absolutely great character development and the sweetest book. It gave me all the happy feels.

I love everything about this book.

I loved Maggie and Chase. They met in an unconventional way, yet every bit of their relationship was relatable and natural. I listen to this book every few months now, and it has become one of my emotional security books. I know this is weird, but I have friends who have lost a parent and I have caught myself wishing something like this story would happen for them.

Charming, funny take on grief and love

I loved the texting to a lost parent and the cl clever way a relationship develops through shared grief and kindness.
