Publisher's summary

I’ve lost it. :( The only thing in the world I wasn’t supposed to lose. My engagement ring. It’s been in Magnus’s family for three generations. And now the very same day his parents are coming, I’ve lost it. The very same day! Do not hyperventilate, Poppy. Stay positive :) !!

Poppy Wyatt has never felt luckier. She is about to marry her ideal man, Magnus Tavish, but in one afternoon her “happily ever after” begins to fall apart. Not only has she lost her engagement ring in a hotel fire drill but in the panic that follows, her phone is stolen. As she paces shakily around the lobby, she spots an abandoned phone in a trash can. Finders keepers! Now she can leave a number for the hotel to contact her when they find her ring. Perfect!

Well, perfect except that the phone’s owner, businessman Sam Roxton, doesn’t agree. He wants his phone back and doesn’t appreciate Poppy reading his messages and wading into his personal life.

What ensues is a hilarious and unpredictable turn of events as Poppy and Sam increasingly upend each other’s lives through emails and text messages. As Poppy juggles wedding preparations, mysterious phone calls, and hiding her left hand from Magnus and his parents . . . she soon realizes that she is in for the biggest surprise of her life.

Any additional comments?

this book is one of my top ten books I loved it so so much

Loved it !

I thought this book was great !! It entertained me right to the end ! I agree with previous poster that the texting scene in the forest was my favourite as well ! The narrator could use some work on the other voices, it was hard to distinguish sometimes, but her voice was perfect for the main character so she made it work. Overall, very happy I bought it

Didn't think much of it at first...

Would you try another book from Sophie Kinsella and/or Jayne Entwistle?

yes I would

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

yep

Any additional comments?

I thought the story was so not interesting or catching at first; but as I kept on reading it, my interest started growing, and it got to the point that I just couldn't stop reading it at the end. Really funny and touching at the same time. I enjoyed it.

Predictable and cute

Cheesy and predictable from the opening lines. The performance was great, however the book doesn’t translate very well to spoken word because of all of the texts in the book. But that’s to be expected. All in all, cute and worth a listen if you are looking for something lighthearted.

love it! very clever! the book kept me guessing!

love it! very clever! the book kept me guessing! I figured a few things but wasn't sure how it would play out!

Great love story!!

I couldn’t stop listening! Such a great story and very well written! The heat between the two characters as they talked on the phone took my breath away. Such a fun twist on them falling for each other!

Good Fun Read!

This is a laugh out loud book. I fully enjoyed the light hearted romance story.

Nice and lively

It was very entertaining car reading. It helped a lot to resist an urgent wish to stay in bed and don't go to work.
