The cover was better than Doctor Wrong Number. No real hookup till 71% just sexting and rotten abusive tinder dates with other guys. Elias was boring and Olivia was too. Sexy times were pretty smutty but that did not make up for non existent plot

Schmexy Texting to the Max!!

3.5 Sexy Siver Fox Alpha Stars rounded up...

If you love over the top, the dirtiest of dirty talking silver fox alphas then this book is for you.

Okay, this starts off with a bang from the get-go. Olivia drunk texts the wrong number a sexy pic of herself and the recipient is Elias, the new hotter than hot doctor at the hospital where she works. Olivia didn't have her face in the photo so when she gets a pic in return of a man with the body of a God, she and Elias have no idea they are already in each other's orbit. This sets off some scorching hot dirty texting right from the jump where the air of mystery just adds to the naughtiness of it.

So, this was a new author for me. I loved the premise. Strangers sending texts, emails, or letters back and forth is one of my favorite tropes. I think the immediate jump into the sexual side of things, where it's just purely physical made it harder for me to connect. I know it's a bit sappy but sometimes I need a little romance first, LOL. And that's just a me preference. If you're looking for a one handed smutty read with heaps of dirty talk then this is definitely gonna hit all your buttons.

There were some execution issues I had, and some story points that felt forced or off which led to my rating, but overall, I liked the premise, the story, and the characters. I actually went and read Winston and Dove's story after this one and actually liked that one a little better, but that's because I love a pregnant/single mother trope. Either or, you're definitely going to have to turn the AC down a few degrees when you read these. Enjoy!

Even though this is an ARC review, I will always shoot you straight.

And had a little too much to drink and decided to send her ex a sexy flirtatious pic of what he has left and is missing out on. But she sent the selfies to a wrong number and recipient of that number was none other than sexy silver fox Dr. Elias Carrington. Elias was intrigued by the picture but was a little conflicted in how young she looked. He could tell that he was much older than she was. But he still send her a sexy pic of himself. And this started a sext chain of pics and videos back and forth with to each other but they didn't exchanged no name. They were drawn to each other even though they never decided on taking it any further than the messages and videos. Their messages became smutty and downright naughty, unbeknowing to each other that they worked at the same hospital.

He had a nasty mouth out of this world and a dirty tongue, that makes all kinds of sinfully delicious promises. And a rock hard body that delivers every promises. A sizzling, emotion-filled delight. An electrifying, magnetic and orgasmic read. A steamy swoon-worthy story that unfolds within the pages and demands to be read and screamed escape from the everyday life and gave that something extra that you craved and never knew that you needed. Could Dr. Wrong Number be her Mr. Right? Will they get their HEA?

OMG! This book was sizzling hot! Like you need a fan and a cold drink kind of hot. Doctor Wrong Number was a deliciously filthy erotic romance story about Olivia McDowel, executive assistant for Dr. Winston Warrick at Warrick General Hospital, and Dr. Elias Carrington, the new neurosurgeon at the hospital. Olivia loved her job and had such a great relationship with her boss, Dr. Warrick, that he sent her and her friends to a club to celebrate her birthday. Olivia got drunk and accidentally sexted a wrong number. The owner of that number responded, and Olivia began a sexting relationship with Mr. Wrong Number (MWN). Meanwhile, Olivia met Dr. Elias Carrington when he came to Dr. Warrick’s office. Olivia and Elias felt an unexplainable and undeniable pull to each other. Olivia thought Elias was a gorgeous silver fox and Elias thought Olivia was the most beautiful woman in the world. They eventually figured out that they are each other’s Wrong Number.

Holy cr#p! I loved this book! Doctor Wrong Number was a deliciously filthy story full of lots of smeggs and extra hot and spicy dirty talk. Archer has written another excellent, steamy, intense romance with a good plot and interesting and complicated characters. This was a beautiful love story and was deftly written in a responsible and respectful way. I recommend this book for fans of hospital, steamy, workplace and family drama, age gap, sexting romance stories.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wrong number, right man… and SO deliciously dirty

Doctor Wrong Number by Liz Archer is chaotic, flirty, and absolutely scorching in the best way.

Olivia accidentally sending dirty selfies to the wrong number is peak rom-com disaster energy… except the “wrong number” turns out to be Dr. Elias Carrington—a silver fox with confidence, skill, and zero intention of pretending he’s not interested.

The age gap? Honestly, who cares. The chemistry is immediate and electric. Elias isn’t just older—he’s experienced, commanding, and completely in control in a way that makes every interaction sizzle. The texting banter alone is enough to fog up your screen.

What makes this work beyond the steam is the dynamic. Olivia isn’t meek or embarrassed for long—she leans into the chaos. And Elias? He matches her energy with charm, dominance, and that delicious “I know exactly what I’m doing” vibe.

Yes, it’s dirty. Very dirty. But it’s also playful and fun. There’s no cheating, no unnecessary drama—just two adults leaning into explosive attraction and discovering that maybe fate has a sense of humor after all.

Hot silver fox doctor + wrong number sexting + unapologetic chemistry = total win. Scorching, fast, and ridiculously addictive. 🔥📱💋.

This book was such a fun read, and I didn't want to put it down. After a drunken night out celebrating her birthday Olivia goes to text her Ex and accidentally texts the wrong number and they start up a conversation which then turns into sexy fun when she gets home. Over the next couple of weeks they keep texting each other and sending each other videos but still have no idea who the other person is. Elias is the new dr. at the hospital and at first has issues with the age gap and tries to break it off but keeps going back for more. Then he meets Olivia in person but doesn't know she is the mystery girl he keeps texting. He falls for her but doesn't say anything. Then they finally decide to meet in person, and both are excited that they have been texting each other the whole time. This book was full of laughs, sexy scenes and a hold your breath moment. The book does end with a HEA. This is the first time I have arc read a book by Liz will be checking out the other books in the series and hope for two more books with other characters named in the book. Overall, this will be a re-read again the future.

This is probably my absolute favorite Liz Archer book so far! To think all of it started with a text to the wrong number.

Elias and Olivia have one interesting story to share. Fate played a part when she sent a text while out partying with her friends. She thought she was sending it to her ex, to remind him what he lost. Turns out she sent it to a wrong number, and the person on the other ends responds.

They text back and forth for a while, some simple, some pretty intense. One night when Olivia is out on a date. Her boss and Elias are at the same restaurant. When her date goes bad, fast, Elias steps in and handles the situation. They share an attraction, but they still don't realize they are talking to the same person they have been texting with. Soon after, while texting, they decide to meet their wrong number. Things only get hotter from there.

Readers will not be disappointed. This book has some pretty intense, spicy scenes that are written in a way that paint quite the picture in the imagination.

Doctor Wrong Number

I have read many of Liz Archer's books - The reverse harems, the silver foxes, the motorcycle clubs, and the Bratva. This book was one of the best she has ever written.
I do have a love for silver foxes. And I do like age-gap stories. But this was more exciting because Olivia starts talking with Mr. Wrong Number at a bar when she drunk dials him. But that is not the end, they flirt and flirt while Dr. Wrong Number, Elias has a mini- meltdown about their age gap. Meanwhile Olivia and Dr. Elias Carrington meet at the hospital. When they finally meet in person, the passion is phenomenal as they fall in love.
It is then, they are both hit a curveball as their worlds connect in the most interesting and tearful way.
I enjoyed this story immensely. I really enjoyed the main characters, Elias and Olivia. There is so much love oozing out of them from the beginning.

OVERALL: 10/10 ++

CHARACTERS: 10/10 ++

STORYLINE: 10/10 ++

EROTICISM/PASSION: 10/10+++

I absolutely loved reading this book. It was such a lovely story about growth, love and forgiveness. Olivia was celebrating her birthday and instead of texting her ex like she usually did, she sent her photo and text to a wrong number. What followed was a whole lot of fun sexy texts and an attraction that couldn’t be ignored. Meanwhile, Dr Elias Carrington was surprised by the wrong number messages but felt like the start to something great. Before they both knew they were falling in love with each other, and when they finally did meet face-to-face, they knew they were meant to be together. There were lots of moments of tears and laughter and repairing family relationships. There is a happy ending for rolling involved, I just loved the way they all interacted with each other and how friendships were to develop.

Doctor Wrong Number: An Age Gap Romance by Liz Archer is a scorching, funny, and addictive romance about Olivia, who drunkenly texts a stranger… only to discover her mysterious sexting partner is the irresistible older surgeon she works with. Chaos, chemistry, and secrets ensue.
I loved how the tension builds through their anonymous messages—watching Elias fall for Olivia in person while unknowingly already obsessed with her was deliciously dramatic. The heat level? Let’s just say you may need a fan and hydration. The age-gap conflict added emotional depth, especially when Elias tries (and fails) to resist.
Archer’s writing is fast-paced, witty, and unapologetically spicy, though a few moments lean more fantasy than realism. Still, the characters are engaging enough that you won’t care—you’ll just keep turning pages.
Overall: sexy, fun, and swoony with a satisfying HEA. Definitely re-read worthy.

[Jackie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Two strangers sharing spicy messages ... What could go wrong?! I love how Olivia and Elias are instantly drawn to each other but don't know how much fate has been throwing them together. The push-and-pull of waiting had me on the edge of my seat—the perfect balance of intense chemistry, little bits of drama, and some extremely sizzling hot moments. This book was so good, I had a hard time putting it down.

During a drunken birthday celebration at a club, Olivia texts the wrong number, but get the right man. Dr. Elias Carrington is instantly intrigued and responds. The texts get hotter and hotter, but when the mystery woman tells him her age he worries that maybe the age-gap is too much. When Olivia meets the new neurosurgeon at the hospital where she works the attraction is immediate but she doesn't know that Mr. Wrong Number and Elias are the same person. Fate is enjoying the budding romance between Olivia and the silver fox doctor. Good Book !!!

[Terra Oenning · Rating 5 out of 5]

Wowsa I absolutely loved this book and couldn't put it down and was engrossed from the beginning until the end. Its captivating and tantalizing and so much more. When a drunk Olivia text pictures to wrong number will it end up being one time thing? Or will Mr wrong number Elias want more? The chemistry between them was off the charts and in person will it be explosive as well? I throughly enjoyed this book and just loved it.

This is Elias and Olivia’s story.
Olivia means to send a drunk text to her ex but unknowingly sends it to the wrong number. Elias is an irresistible silver fox surgeon, who works in the same hospital as Olivia. Oliivia comes to believe that one wrong sext to Mr Wrong, could lead to Mr Right.
This is a well written story which has family drama, friendships, emotions, an age gap, dirty talking, combustible chemistry, and love, which leads to an entertaining, spicy, and fun, addictive page turner.

Yummy! Such a great book. I loved both of the main characters. Elias was so surprisingly sexy, and I mean that in the best way. Olivia was really out there and bravely taking chances to find Mr. Right. And, she found him. Sexy, hot, lots of action that moves the plot forward, and introductions to I new characters. Laughter, tears, hot sex. What more could a reader want, other than a Mr. Wrong of her own.

[Merry Jelks-Emmanuel · Rating 5 out of 5]

This age gap romance had me all caught up in Elias and Olivia. They meet in the office of her boss but neither knows that they have met previously through a sizzling text. Sparks ignites between them and their path begins in this heated romance that had me all caught up in these two from start to finish.

Loved it…

One of the cutest, funny, steamy stories I have read recently. Work relationships are a no-no to Olivia, and communicating with a stranger by text should be too. But, how can she resist when the conversations, are so hot! Great reading.

I loved this story about Olivia and Elias. Their text were so hot and spicy, and them being happy that it was each other once they found out was just the icing on the cake.

I enjoyed the story of Olivia and Elias. A fun and funny story about two people who have disastrous dates, and even though she sent the wrong text to her ex—or so she thought, because it arrived at Elias's place, who is a doctor. A delightfully steamy story that is definitely recommended.

Unexpected events. Needs a couple of sequels on the two brothers. Could also use a prequel on Dr. Warrick and Dove.
