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.

Such a great story!

I really felt the pain in this novel. I’m very close with my mom and I cried so much when the main characters were talking about losing their mothers. Then was so giddy with the ending.

It is a beautifully written clean romance story.

I’m so glad I took a chance on listening to my first book by Becky Monson and will look for more by her.

Wonderful rom-com after death in family

I lost my mother at the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic, so this story was especially sweet to me. After both characters had lost their mothers, they found each other. I found myself laughing and then crying a little. It made me miss my mom, but in a nice way. Truly romantic and very funny! I am going to listen to more books by this wonderful author!

Right in the feels

I love the thought of being able to “talk” or text when someone is already gone. This is a great read for anyone who knows what grief can do. But also what’s on the other side of grief.

Perfect!

I loved this book! It had so many emotions to it. I love the characters and their story. Becky Monson hit a home run with this book for sure! As I was reading I kept picturing how cute this would be as a cute Hallmark movie.
