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.

I've always been a fan of Sophie Kinsella reading all previous novels. With ‘I've Got Your Number' it took me a few attempts to get into it. I kept having to chastise myself to get back to it as the story was almost a little too light and frothy upfront.
The story of Poppy who finds a phone in a bin and seeing as hers has just been stolen decides to use it. She realises it belongs to the PA of executive Sam and suddenly they find themselves thrown together through shared voicemails and emails.
It's a typical Kinsella chicklit novel - you can spot the conclusion a mile off. It is clear from very early on. It is however a heartwarming story which improves as the book goes on and we learn more about Sam & Poppy. It isnt as strong as the shopaholic series but still a good read
Another light and fun read by Sophie Kinsella. I couldn't figure out how she would get me to like where I thought the story was going, but in the end I did. I enjoyed the main character and there was just a bit of mystery.
Quick notes: Received copy through Amazon Vine. First Kinsella book. Liked it. :)
Gimmick of footnoting everything was funny, got old, became funny again, and then just lost me. Would have driven me bonkers on my Kindle.
AHHH, this book was lovely! Hilarious and wonderfully adorable!
