I continue to enjoy reading Lynn Painter. Like some of her others, a bonus here, is the setting in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. I lived there for 35 years. First and Forever has two main characters who have dealt with loss and continue to suffer somewhat. I’d say they are somewhat on their own, […]
I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read by Lynn Painter. So I always want to read her books. An added draw here, is the setting in the Twin Cities of Minnesota. I lived there for 35 years, and on Lake Minnetonka where at least two of my neighbors had hockey rinks with lights in their back […]
I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read by Lynn Painter. They always seem to have very fun banter and humor. So I always want to read her books. The setting for this seems to be Omaha Nebraska with a Warren Buffet type character. Maid for Each Other is a class difference book, not that they really […]
Lynn Painter is the absolute master at banter. I would enjoy her books just for the humor. The dialogue is generally a bit blunt and sassy. The characters go a bit wildly silly and add in pop culture sometimes in some of the banter and it’s just fun. It’s meant to be a bit outrageous. […]

The Love Wager starts with a wedding. I didn’t realize it until much later in the book, but it’s the couple from the first book Mr. Wrong Number, Olivia and Colin. They are barely mentioned as this book is about Olivia’s brother Jack. I really enjoyed the humor in Mr. Wrong Number so I was […]
Mr. Wrong Number was SO easy to start reading. Once reading, it was addictive. The emotional rollercoaster was the biggest one with laughing, crying, cheering, and furious screams. While some aspects were completely ridiculous, I couldn’t help feeling it. Olivia is somewhat a klutz and a mess, but she lives life with her whole heart. […]
