Wrong Number Reviews
-
I just couldn't finish this one. It was so over the top sweet. I don't mind insta love but this was too much even for me. I thought it would be a cute read and I like an older man younger woman trope but it all is just too sweet.
Moving onto something else. Probably a Jenna Rose. Short, smutty and will up my read count since I'm like 4 books behind now. LOL -
A blind date went bad. The girl met the boy because the girl sent an SOS message to the wrong number. Instant attraction sparked. Boy courted the girl and the real-life hit. The story was straightforward, quite predictable, and, unfortunately, not much twist nor surprise in the story. For me, the plot was quite dragging after they went on the 1st date. It was starting off quite interesting and then suddenly it just went flat after that.
Virgin h, experienced H (celibate)
Construction (sorta) owner H, sweet naive shy receptionist h
Safe read, No drama/angst
No cheating
HEA, No OW/OM
Overall score: 2.5 vanilla romance stars -
Tana is on a date from hell, she sends her friend who set up blind date a text asking fir help. Unfortunately she got the number wrong and the text goes to Tyler. He lives in the neighborhood and doesn’t like that a man is harassing a woman, so he shows up at the restaurant and rescues her. They hit it off and decide to date. They see each other a few times and things are going well. Tana is completely new to dating and relationships, Tyler has had a few short relationships, but none lasted more than a month. Tana has a secret she’s keeping, the author tells you this after their first date and I kept waiting for the fallout of it. They have their first time together and then Tyler gets real busy at work and doesn’t call or text as often and Tana has real issues with abandonment and is a little upset by it. But Tyler really is a great guy, he makes time to explain and see her, even if it’s to drive her home. So it’s a double whammy when Tana’s big secret is revealed, her dad is a competitor of Tyler’s in carpentry and is not very good but always causes problems for Tyler’s company. And poor guy has to deal with his uncle being squirrelly, nothing shady just didn’t talk to him. But it’s still Tyler that apologize to Tana and goes to talk to his uncle. Tana and he talk, she apologize too and they make up. Epilogue one year later with Tyler proposing and nine years later with two daughters.
There were some cute and funny moments, but I didn’t like Tana’s character, for being so honest and good her, not saying anything about her dad was underhanded. Tyler forgave her too easy and made excuses for her. -
Tana is a shy, inexperienced young woman whose friend arranged a blind date for her. Things don’t seem to be going well with the jerk, as he tries to get her drunk and won’t respect her boundaries. When she realizes she doesn’t know how to effectively deal with him, she texts her friend for help, but she types the number incorrectly.
Tyler is out with his friends having a beer when someone he doesn’t know sends him a text. It seems a woman is desperate to get help. Not sure if the text is even valid, he decides to take a chance and help her. He is able to rescues her from the man’s unwanted attentions! But the sizzling chemistry between Tyler and the woman is overwhelming. Will she be willing to take a chance on her knight in shining armor and have dinner with him? Could this be the start of a new relationship?
The story line of this story is clever, and the characters are likable. Although not much drama exists, I was content to read about the rescue and hope for a HEA. Grab your copy and see what happens to the two of them once Tyler rescues her and introduces himself. -
The premise of this short story intrigued me so I decided to give it a try even though I don't really gravitate toward older man/younger woman romances and stories that rely heavily on "instalove."
The reason I don't typically enjoy OM/YW romances is because they often portray the heroine as childlike in her innocence and the hero as the older "teacher/protector." This short romance was no different in that the heroine seemed much younger than she was supposed to be. I felt like her thoughts/feelings/actions were typical of a high school teenager instead of an adult.
With that being said, this story was very sweet and included very little drama. There were some sex scenes, but they felt out of place to me given the overall tone of the book (seemed like "bubblegum" romance almost.)
The characters weren't very interesting and the story was uneventful to the point that it was boring. A lot of the story is simply told to the reader, which prevented me from becoming engrossed in the events of the book.
If you like OM/YW low-angst stories, then you may enjoy this quick read.

This is the first book I've read by this author and after reading the blurb I thought 'ok, sounds good.' Can't go wrong reading a wrong number book. The others I've read weren't so bad so why not give this a go. Damn was I disappointed. The beginning started out great. Bad date, text to wrong number, hero saves heroine. But then it got boring. The hero was too sweet letting her set the pace etc. After chapter 6, I had to bypass to last chapter just to get to the ending, and what do you know, her insecurities cause her to stalk him to a bar where she thinks he's moved on, he saves her again then apologizes for not calling her for a few days. Then they live HEA. I apologize to the author if you read this review. I'm not a hater but there was nothing enticing or captivating about this story. No push-pull, sass or witty banter, no suspense or mystery or anything to keep us intrigued. Only a sad story of being abandoned by everyone, which we've all had somewhere in our lives atleast once. But in saying all that, those of you who love a good romance story that's sickly sweet, this is probably for you.

“You...you came running because a stranger sent a text to the wrong number?”
This was a sweet, kind of wholesome story. Tana is a bit naive and a completely inexperienced 22 year old. Tyler is a 36 year old the boy next door type looking for that special someone. I have to say that the age difference never really even comes into play so if that’s what you like don’t be expecting too much if it.
The one thing that kinda bothered me was that Tyler could be weirdly sexist at times. It just came off as odd and gave him a weird vibe.
”I’ve always been the type to want to rescue a damsel in distress, but today’s modern woman didn’t always think too highly of that.”
”I couldn’t stand anyone who lies, but somehow it was even worse if it was a woman. I clearly understood that’s not fair, but it’s how I felt.
Those quotes just struck me strangely. If you’re looking for a wholesome novella without too much conflict this is for you. -
When Tyler rescues Tana from her horrible blind date, he can’t believe his good fortune at meeting such an incredible woman. Tana’s night went from bad to fantastic as Tyler showed her how a true gentleman treats a lady and she couldn’t wait to see him again. As their relationship develops, family drama threatens to tear them apart but Tyler will fight to show Tana she is the only woman for him as they make their HEA.

Tyler is a hardworking and good man who works in a construction company and Tana is a sweet and innocent secretary that sent an SOS to the wrong number and instead of her best friend she got the love of her life. I really liked that the characters and the fact that they are able to analyze themselves and their neurosis and work their problems out.

3.5 stars.
This is a really nice romance which had me smiling at the sweetness of their romance. In a couple of place I felt the story needed a bit more development but I really did like the characters and enjoyed seeing them meet, get to know one another and fall in love.

Tana is on a horrible date. She had stored her friend's number wrong in her new phone. When Tana text her friend for help, she gets Tyler's number instead. Tyler helps Tana from her pushy, hands on date. This is a case of wrong number but possibly right guy.

Wonderful!
This was such an enjoyable read! Tyler getting the text for help from Tana was something he couldn’t refuse. What a way to meet your one true love! From the very beginning I was hooked and couldn’t put the book down till the very end. Well worth every minute of lost sleep! -
I love Insta love stories and this was tagged as an Insta love story but I have attempted to read it twice and could only get half way thru each time. The 2 main characters seem to fall for each other pretty quickly and I love the wrong number idea that the story starts with but the story seems a bit draggy for me and it wasn't able to hold my attention either time I tried to read it.

Tyler receives a text from an unknown number, but seems to be a woman in distress. He ends up rescuing Tana from a blind date gone wrong. They end up walking and talking and going out. Both have been hurt previously and are hesitant but hopeful. Loved the ending!!

Enjoyable
I did enjoy this story. I loved the ending the best though, the prologue about Tana.
It’s wasn’t too insta lovey and I felt like they still took their time.
It was an enjoyable book, worth your time. -
A cute and wonderful romance read. I enjoyed my time reading this novel. It’s your typical romance read, but with a text sent to the wrong number. I loved that he helped her out! It had its HEA, and I was pleased.
