Seeking Mr. Wrong
In this warm, charming, and hilarious romance, a kindergarten teacher and children’s book author attempts to write erotica—and sets out to find the right Mr. Wrong for some hands-on inspiration.
Lettie Osbourne has lived her whole life by the book. Sweet, predictable, and certainly not living life on the edge, she’s always been content to make a living as a kindergarten teacher who writes adorable children’s books on the side. After her fiancé leaves her, Lettie decides she is perfectly content to accept her fate as mother to her beloved dog Odin and favorite auntie to her niece and nephew.
But then everything changes.
When Lettie’s publisher decides to sell only erotica, her editor convinces her to turn up the heat and throw some spice into her vanilla life. Lettie sets out to find the perfect man to inspire her writing...and finds him in her school’s vice principal, Eric Clayman. As Lettie and Eric grow closer and her writing gets steamier, she’s left wondering: is Eric Mr. Wrong? Or Mr. Right?

I have fallen for Natalie Charles!
This book has every thing we want in a romance! This lighthearted read is funny and a fun, sexy romp! It is so entertaining, I never wanted it to end.
I loved the story line as it is unique and hilarious in parts! A kindergarten teacher ends up writing erotica. What could possible go wrong? Except for Mr. Wrong, who is a sexy dreamboat who steams up the pages, and the teacher, in many delicious ways!
The author has given us a delightful story that wraps you up so you never want to leave the warm comfort of the pages she has woven for us. Sigh...
A sweet romance, with a few glitches along the way. After all isn't life that way? I am definitely reading more from this gem of an author! I loved this one!

I'm always looking for sorbet and I desperately wanted some fluff, and this sounded like just the thing.
I liked Lettie and Eric well enough. They're good people and they are interesting together. The chemistry wasn't very high, but I did like their small flirty scenes. Their relationship was the best part of the book.
Between the co-workers, friends, family, and therapist, there are a zillion and one characters with complete backgrounds and that's where I started to lose interest. There's just so much going on. Not everyone needed a storyline. It felt cluttered and because there were so many people, a bit rushed.
Overall, the Lettie/Eric arc is what kept me reading, but I was definitely hoping for more of a spark and disappointed when I didn't get it.

TW: child abuse mention, shooter drill

Its pretty vanilla for a novel about a kindergarten teacher/children’s author turned erotica writer.
There’s some funny moments and the tone of the book is slice-of-life chick lit about a heroine reinventing herself. The dreamy cut sequences during the heroine’s POV that are supposed to be quirky just feel choppy. She’s also kind of judgmental af though, to be fair, its in her inner thoughts. Her inner craziness doesnt hurt other people.
The hero’s POV and overall stability was much more enjoyable to read but that meant that basically 50% of the novel didnt really work for me.
Still, the writing and unique characters makes me curious about the next book in the series.

Seeking Mr. Wrong is a book about acceptance, empowerment and believing in yourself. I’m so in love with this book, it’s my first by Natalie Charles, and I’ll make sure it won’t be the last one. I loved her writing, it was fluent, well paced and creative, and the development of the characters and story was amazing. I loved this story felt so real, so believable and at the same time, it was a great fiction I could get lost in it. And the characters were amazing, especially Lettie and her little niece and nephew. Those twins were awesome.
Seeking Mr. Wrong is the dual POV love, funny and sexy story of Lettie and Eric. Lettie’s fiance left her two days before their wedding and after a summer of weeping and therapy with Dr. Bubbles— funny name, right? But it’s pronounced in a very fancy way ;) —she was finally ready to moved on, but she didn’t know it was going to be such a big change for her. She moved from being the good and sweet children’s book writer to the adventuress erotica writer. She went from being the rule follower employee to the teacher who sneaked out to kiss in the janitor’s closet with her new boyfriend, Eric. Oh, sweet Jesus, Eric. What a sweet, romantic and amazing man. I buddy read this book with a friend of mine, and we commented all our Eric book boyfriends were just great. There should be a special category for all the Eric’s <3 *sigh* Eric was fascinating. He was so believable character that I even hated him at some point in the book. He acted like a douche but he redeem himself later, and he did it twice, so that gave me two chances to fall all over again for him <3
All in all, great read, highly recommended for people who wanna read a heartwarming novel to swoon over a sexy man, but most of all, to read about a strong woman who rediscovered herself and became the truly happy person who she always ever wanted to be.

Lettie has had a tough summer, her fiancé called off their wedding 2 days before it was supposed to happen because he realized he was gay and she found out the publisher of her children's book series was sold and she now needs to write erotica to fulfill her contract. So coming back to school and finding out you lied to your new boss who happened to give your niece and nephew penis lollipops was not something she was prepared for. Lettie had a crush on Eric but she doesn't think he feels anything for her until a hot affair leaves them both questioning their feelings.
This was a new author for me and I loved it!! They way she wrote 2 different stories mixed together was wonderful (her story and Lettie's erotic novellas).

This book was confusing to me. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be a sexy book with an alpha male and a strong woman with hidden desires or a feel-good romance. Overall the book felt a little too cheesy for me.

The publisher made the mistake of describing this story in a way that seems like a woman who needs to find a man to teach her pointers for her new erotica novels. This couldn’t be further from the truth. They have successfully sold a flood of books but to people wanting an erotica story and who are now very unhappy.
Reading the description of the story, I believed that Lettie is looking for a man, Mr. Wrong, who would be her “Mr. 50 Shades” and teach her how to bring realism to her erotica stories. This seems to be a mistake that many people are making as I have noticed several bad ratings due to the fact that people were looking to read erotica and the amount of sex in this story is minimal and not even very exciting. After reading the story, and re-reading the description, “Lettie sets out to find the perfect man to inspire her writing…and finds him in her school’s vice principal, Eric Clayman,” I can now see the distinction. In the story, Lettie uses her interest in the temporary Vice Principal to fuel her own daydreams about him as inspiration for her story’s hero. Once they become involved, the second erotic story she writes centers around a woman who is having a tryst with her boss and is trying not to get caught, just like Lettie and Eric. This eventually leads to Eric being hurt and believing he was used for story fodder but we will get back to all of their misunderstandings.
I did like how Lettie would start to narrate a scene for her book while she was having conversations with Eric or just staring at him across the room, and they weren’t just dirty scenes, it was narrations of flirting or how he was longing for her. That was cleverly woven into the scenes.
But other than that, I didn’t find much in this story to recommend it. Lettie was nice but flat. Her family was crazy but nothing inspiring. Her father was on his 4th wife who was as young as Lettie and her sister which is typical, shallow wealthy older-man syndrome. She finds out her perfect sister was trying an open marriage and was screwing up her marriage by getting emotionally attached to the other men, and blaming Dad’s genes as the fault. The niece and nephew were brats due to their parents’ screwed up no discipline rules. But there was nothing outstandingly interesting about them.
Eric and his family was a little more interesting as Eric survived an abusive, bully of a father, but he family plays a much smaller background role in this story.
The story puts more focus on the petty teachers at Lettie’s school, lead by the bitchy, controlling principal that Lettie refers to as Brunhilda.
Eric comes in at the beginning of the story, but there is concern that Eric is Lettie’s “boss” until a new Vice Principal is found and neither one wants to make a move because of the ethics at play. It takes more than half the book for Eric to make a move on Lettie and kiss her, then he bends her over a desk. This is one of only two sex scenes between Eric and Lettie and in neither scene do either take off more than just Lettie’s underwear. One quickie sex scene gives you the feeling of their desperation for each other. All of their scenes are like that just looks like the author can’t write one. In fact, the only other sex scene is one from Lettie’s story and again, it is a quickie as they come in the front door.
Additionally, there was a lot of miscommunication between Lettie and Eric so that they spent very little time being in a relationship and they kept “starting again” once someone finally cleared the air. Even the whole taboo of not being together could have been circumvented by coming out and publicly admitting they were in a relationship so that any teacher related issue would be handled by the Principal directly. This is stated in the story. They still wouldn’t come out and admit it, causing another miscommunication, which was unnecessary since they could have simply admitted they were dating and worked around it.
Overall, this is simply a romance, and a not very exciting one at that. If you were looking for a sex book, THIS ISN’T IT!

Actual rating: 3.5 stars.
If you're looking for something adorable, this is a good choice. This is one of those books that would be perfect to read on a warm spring day while sitting on the patio. As I librarian, I'm always on the look out for "sweet" romances - those that don't feature heavy or graphic sex scenes for our more gentle patrons. When it comes to the book itself, I'd say this fits in that sweet category, but while Lettie is reading erotica in order to get an idea of the genre, we do get snippets of these fictional books - including some smutty scenes. It's done as an amusing aside, however, and could easily be glanced over if the reader finds them to be too graphic.
I did have a few issues while reading this, however. The book is told primarily from Lettie's point of view, but it will occasionally switch to Eric for a couple paragraphs. There is a couple lines break between Lettie's paragraphs and Eric's, but it would have been a smoother transition from one to the other if Eric's point of view started a new chapter. Similarly, it seems the author occasionally gives us a few sentences from Eric's point of view right in the middle of a chapter from Lettie, the only difference is that the Eric POV sentences are in italics. This is jarring more than anything, and was confusing the first time it happened. The first couple times, I wondered if Lettie was writing a male POV in her head, thinking through a scene she would write down later, but this was not the case.
Is this the next great work of literature? No. But it was a fun, cute, sweet read. And I would gladly pick up something else by this author in the future.

**You can see this full review and more at Book Briefs: https://bookbriefs.net**Seeking Mr. Wrong is an adult contemporary romance by Natalie Charles. This is the first book I have read by Natalie Charles, and I have to say I really enjoyed it. I thought it was a funny and quick read. It is about an author that is "forced" to switch from children's books to spicy adult romance books when her publisher is bought by another publisher who publishes romance.
Watching Lettie struggle with this problem, which is totally outside of her personality and wheelhouse was really amusing for me. Not to mention hilarious for the people in her life as well. I loved seeing her family's reaction to the whole thing. I thought her story was tons of fun. And Lettie herself is really likable and funny. I enjoyed Seeking Mr. Wrong. I don't want to spoil too much of the plotline for this one, so you will just have to pick up the book for yourself to see.
While the book didn't totally rock my world, I did really enjoy it. It was a quick read that is perfect for when you are in the mood for something light. The plot if funny. The characters are likable and the romance is really nice. I would recommend this one to fans of this kind of plot line. Plus, I am giving away my ARC copy of this book, so enter to win and check the book out for yourself.

You may be familiar with Natalie Charles through her Archer Cove series. Her brilliant work continues on through her latest upcoming release, ‘Seeking Mr. Wrong’. Seeking Mr. Wrong is a must read book of February for anyone who loves romance. Contemporary romance at that!
I'm an avid reader and contemporary romance is one of my top favorite genres. Seeking Mr. Wrong is a great addition it is light hearted and has charming qualities you will enjoy. The dialogue was well written and Natalie's style of writing captivates the reader through and through. The whole book, beginning to the end will leave you feeling excited for what Natalie has coming up later.
Seeking Mr Wrong brings us Lettie Osbourne, a kindergarten teacher who has always lived her life on the straight and narrow. Always crossing her t's and dotting her i's. Everything Lettie does is a routine nothing out of the ordinary, certainly not living her life on the edge. Making every moment count doesn't apply to her.
Writing children's books in her spare time is all the excitement she needs. With her dog, and seeing her sister's kids, she's content with her life as it is. She decided she's better off alone after her fiancé leaves her. Her life is fine the way it is. No need to chance anything.
But when her vanilla life gets flipped upside down by her publisher, she doesn't know what to do. Her delicate life gets a lot steamier as her writing takes on a different turn thanks to her editor. Going from writing children's books to a erotica romance can be harder than you think. Does Lettie have what it takes? Can she find the inspiration for her new novel?
Lettie sets out to find her perfect muse. One she never saw coming, Eric Clayman, vice principal of all things.
I fell in love with the story of Lettie and Eric. I truly enjoyed Seeking Mr. Wrong. It was a one of a kind novel. It was a good hearted read one I know you will enjoy as much as I have.
4 Stars!

Contemporary romance is another genre that I love among a ton of other genres. I love romance period, it doesn’t matter what genre it is, just give it to me.
I thought that this book was charming and funny, and it moved fast. It kept my interest and I found myself giggling throughout the book. I also loved that the chemistry between Lettie and Eric was hot hot hot! The two main characters need to have some serious heat between them in order for any fireworks to happen, and these two characters really did have heat and chemistry.
Lettie and Eric really were created for each other. They complement each other so well and Lettie and Eric needed to have someone in their lives to treat each other well. I loved that her best friend studied the law of attraction. I study the law of attraction it really works and it has become so popular, it amazes me.
I loved the fact the Lettie reflects a real life romance author. As a reader we only know the author by their pen name, as they have a life outside of writing and there may be people who would object to their profession. Or they may be like Lettie and be a teacher of children and if word got out that they wrote some steamy erotica, people, parents, or bosses may object and could land them in a sticky situation.
I loved Lettie’s doggie Odin too, I love animals in books, they can really help the main character get through whatever emotional crisis the author has put them in, and I just love animals period, whether they are fictional or real.
Give this book a try, it was so good.

Meet Lettie Osbourne...
...Kindergarten teacher by day, children's book writer by night...until now.
You see, life has decided to throw our dear Lettie a few curve balls, recently. Beginning with her now ex-fiance's change of team, continuing with Brunhilde's total love and affection for her (okay, totally sarcastic...the woman has it in for her, clearly), and finally her NEW publisher's demands for a genre change. Can she do it? Why sure! She's talented...all it takes is the right inspiration. Good things there's a new Vice Principal in town...
Meet Eric Clayman...
...mild mannered Middle School teacher turned temporary elementary school Vice Principal who's easy on the eyes, but not so easy on the heart. He's smart, talented, and prone to awkward meetings and interactions with members of the opposite sex that he feels attracted to. What could go WRONG? Oh so much. Good thing teachers are known for their patience...
The story, the characters, the twists and turns, it all adds up to a fun read. The interactions between her and Mr. I'm-ridiculously-handsome-and-charming-for-the-role-I'm-playing Clayman ran the gambit of lukewarm to scorching to did-we-even-turn-the-burner-on. We just have to give him a chance, much like our gal Lettie, to see if there is a potential HEA for them yet...
Recommended read for adult Contemporary Romance fans who don't a mind a little spice with their sweet.

He's smart, talented, and prone to awkward meetings and interactions with members of the opposite sex that he feels attracted to. What could go WRONG? Oh so much. Good thing teachers are known for their patience...
The story, the characters, the twists and turns, it all adds up to a fun read. The interactions between her and Mr. I'm-ridiculously-handsome-and-charming-for-the-role-I'm-playing Clayman ran the gambit of lukewarm to scorching to did-we-even-turn-the-burner-on. We just have to give him a chance, much like our gal Lettie, to see if there is a potential HEA for them yet...
Recommended read for adult Contemporary Romance fans who don't a mind a little spice with their sweet.

Lettie was a kindergarten teacher who wrote children’s books and gt dumped by her fiance two days before their wedding when he decided he was gay. Faye’s- Lettie’s sister - and called Lettie to let her know that she needed Lettie to watch the twins while she went to the twins parents orientation for kindergarten. Lettie and Faye’s father is semi retired lawyer who loves to sail so he couldn’t watch the twins- Portia and Bloise . Lettie started writing children’s books a few years earlier to use in her classroom. She uses them to teach the social graces. .She had published five so far. She also had another to show her editor. Then her editor told her that she was not printing children’s books but erotica now, Lettie has to write stories with Erotica in them to fulfill her contract. Lettie decides to look for someone to help her with that. Lettie’s new boyfriend is Eric and he is the Vice Principal at the school she works at.
I didn’t particularly care for this book. I just didn’t find it that exciting and interesting and this type of story has been done before. There was too much going on. It also felt a bit rushed I didn’t like Eric at first he was a butt two times but he did redeem himself. But just wasn’t for me. I am sure others will enjoy this.

I wanted something I could read fast. I dnfed one and then I started on this one. It felt light and cute so I gave it a go. Though my tablet was dead so I borrowed bf's so I could read it since this book is free now in May on xoxo after dark.
Lettie writes children's books and then boom drama, her editor wants her to write erotica...eh, srsl? Ok fine I can believe it (not really but I will roll with it.)
And she has a hot new boss too. Though that first meeting, ehh, srsly? What was he thinking (but fine I will roll with it.)
So these two slowly get closer, even though they should not. She writes. There is some drama and then they live happily ever after.
Conclusion:
Cute and light.

3.5 stars!
This is definitely not my typical genre but once in a while I can enjoy a good romance. At first, I had a hard time getting into the story of a Kindergarten teacher and author of children's books being "forced" to write erotica to fulfill her publishing contract. Sounds a bit far fetched to me. However, the story was fleshed out (pun intended) in the right way and that crossover became a bit more believable.

3.5 stars if the GoodReads gods ever give me half stars (I've pleaded enough times)
The premise of this is that Lettie, a kindergarten teacher who writes children's books as a side job, finds out her publisher was bought by a larger publishing house specializing mostly in erotica. She still has one book left in her contract and she can't afford to pay back the advance, so she decides to try her hand at an erotic romance novella.
I thought about what this means probably more than I needed to. I don't think the book implies that being a kindergarten teacher and romance novelist are incompatible (as I feared), although people around Lettie who find out what she's doing have a range of positive and negative reactions. Lettie uses it as a starting off point to explore her sexuality. I enjoyed her adventures in reading erotica for the first time. It pokes fun at the genre but clearly the author is herself a fan.
Lettie's love interest is Eric, the temporary vice principal at her school, so this is a workplace romance. She also draws inspiration from her...uh...encounters with him for her writing. Secretly.
I had a few complaints that stopped me from giving this a higher rating:
- Sometimes the romance felt secondary to the writer plot, and at other times the writer plot disappeared. It was an odd mix. There would be pages and pages of no direct interaction between Lettie and Eric. And pages and pages about writing erotica...then nothing.
- The excerpts that are presumably from the novella she's writing aren't very well incorporated, e.g. sometimes tacked on to the end of a chapter.
- This story is mostly first person POV with Lettie, but there were also parts told from Eric's POV in the third person. I appreciate that stylistically, she was trying something different, but the first time it switched to Eric I was confused. I would've preferred both third person POV.
This was my first book by Natalie Charles and I'm definitely interested enough to keep her on my radar for the future. I like her sense of humor and I thought the main and secondary characters were entertaining (can Mindy get her own book, please??)

Cute romance about a teacher who writes novels for kids and has to write a erotica novel due to contract. I enjoyed the romance at the school and the chemistry that they had together.

Several years ago, I read three very intriguing suspense stories written by Natalie Charles. So when I saw this author had penned a new book, I was definitely thrilled. Though the story is contemporary, Ms. Charles still kept my interest with her many compelling characters and the clever plot. When circumstances force a kindergarten teacher to drastically change her writing style, the possibility is high of her plans not going as desired. Toss in a sexy man who causes plenty of fantasies, and things just might get better if she can get over her fear of perhaps being hurt. Natalie Charles takes her romantic couple on a journey of self-discovery, resulting in SEEKING MR. WRONG being funny and heartfelt.
There have not been any extraordinary highpoints in Lettie Osbourne’s life, but getting married soon would hopefully turn out to be fulfilling. But the event never happens as her intended broke their engagement right before their wedding day. So it seems her two careers will have to bring her happiness. Lettie does enjoy being a kindergarten teacher, while writing books for young children is also rewarding. As the new school year starts, she plans to put her energy into being a good educator and not think about her depressing private life.
Yet not all goes as Lettie wished, as the school has a new vice principal, Eric Clayman, a man whom she does not completely trust because of a prior incident. Then she discovers her just completed book is not wanted, but writing an erotic story could be profitable. Her need for money has Lettie agreeing to see if she can create a book full of sex scenes. With her personal experience not being that kinky, she will probably have to seek out some helpful information. At least her mind is already conjuring up a few inventive encounters starring her new co-worker, and these imaginings could conceivably be turned into a story.
The first thing I noticed about SEEKING MR. WRONG was how the characters seemed like ordinary folks living in a typical town. As the story progressed, I got to know some of the individuals and what made them unique. When any goals or dreams are revealed, I came to realize what motivated many of the people in the community. Though some are vocal about their objectives, others like Lettie typically keep their wishes to themselves. She is a rule follower and always hopes for the best, but often her loyalty does not bring joy. This frequently happens in real life, and Ms. Charles had me feeling her dejection time and again.
SEEKING MR. WRONG entertains with delightfully engaging situations. The relationship of Lettie and Eric has plenty of ups and downs because of misunderstandings plus challenging obstacles. I felt their sadness when longings were beyond reach, and I rejoiced with them if an event was to their liking. The author made me care about the couple, and her way of giving their perspectives let me know how both viewed a happening. To go from writing a story for young children to creating a story packed with lusty sex is a big step for Lettie, and there are numerous moments in the story where her thoughts are truly amusing. It would be nice to revisit the town and have additional personal stories told.
I voluntarily reviewed the book from the publisher via NetGalley, and these comments are my honest opinion

Natalie Charles is a new-to-me author so I didn’t quite know what to expect when I started Seeking Mr. Wrong. The most simple way I can think of to summarize how I think most people will feel about this book is to say that it reads exactly how you would expect it to based on the cover. It’s a tad cheesy, pretty predictable, and nothing exciting really happens.
The book started off solid; the premise had me intrigued and I connected to the characters. The meet cute was pretty funny and awkward in an adorable way. It set the stage for a really promising storyline with good chemistry. However, once the two main characters actually started to date each other, it began to fall flat.
I felt like there was some good build-up to when they would finally get together and then when they did it was very anti-climactic. The timeline jumped a couple of weeks ahead and I was left wondering what all I’d missed. For me, the most exciting part of a new relationship is the very beginning and getting to experience how they interact with one another. I felt a bit robbed of that experience. Once they started to date, the story became rather boring and focused more on school drama that I just didn’t care much about.
I also didn’t much care for many of the secondary characters either. To be quite honest, Lettie has some pretty self-absorbed family and friends. Her best friend, Mindy, was alright but she seemed to have a bit of her own storyline and it never really went anywhere. Maybe Charles is laying the groundwork for another novel based around her character, but at this point that is unclear.
I really did enjoy Eric’s character. He seemed like a really great guy who cared about the kids in his school and about doing a good job. He was very attractive, quick-witted, and sweet. I also liked Lettie’s character, she was fun and sweet as well, and certainly interesting, but she was a little odd. She’s pretty damaged and behaved oddly at times, but it felt forced. I felt like her character wanted to be grounded and strong but the author forced her into the situations and actions that didn’t fit with the rest of her personality.
All in all, this was a cute book, though the first half was markedly stronger than the second. I recommend it as a light beach read when you want just want a sweet love story that doesn’t demand a lot of your attention.

Seeking Mr. Wrong is a book for anyone who reads a lot (too much) contemporary romance. Readers will be able to identify all the markers they expect, but will love the acknowledgement of everything that annoys them. Cute and sweet Lettie Osbourne writes children’s books about manners. Her publisher gets sold to an outfit that specializes in erotica while she still has one book left on her contract and the advance is long gone. To fulfill her obligation, she takes on the challenge of writing in the new-to-her genre.
Lettie admits, “I never understood the appeal of the angry alpha male. If I were to make a list of qualities that I want in a mate, it wouldn’t include stomping. Maybe a willingness to make dinner every now and then and a basic understanding of laundry.” As she struggles to embrace her inner vixen, she meets the mostly vanilla, non-alpha male that is the love of her life. Yes, he looks like Superman, but this is a guy who doesn’t own a red tie. This is a love story about some pretty nice, normal people. While they meet, fall in love, break up, and hopefully make-up, Lettie has a smutty running commentary in her head à la James Thurber’s 1939 The Secret Lives of Walter Mitty. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P332D...
She also does mental interviews with Oprah. One word: hilarious. Through the process she learns a lot about herself both painful and funny. Lettie’s inner voice is wonderfully sarcastic, but her editor stole the best line. In a conversation about the manuscript Lettie submits, “…I despise the word moist, so I’m going to strike it from the manuscript and ask you to come up with something else. Same with panties. Can’t stand it. Makes me think of my childhood. Give her a lace thong instead.” I was on the elliptical at the gym. I stopped and cheered. Yes, people stared. Worth it. Buying this book? Totally worth it.

Yeah, erotic-romances aren't exactly my kind of genre to read. However, I'm trying to expand my reading horizons this year, so I thought I would give Seeking Mr. Wrong a try. What appealed to be the most about this eBook is the premise of a children writer switching genres to romance novels.
I had never read a novel by the author before, so I didn't know exactly what to expect before I started reading the ARC that was sent to me. To my surprise, the novel is cleverly written. I was hooked into the narration right from the very beginning. Lettie, the main character, is very likeable, and will probably appeal to many female readers (I'm guessing here, since I'm a male reader!). Yes, there are several "hot" scenes, but most of them are fictional stories that Lettie is writing.
Overall, Seeking Mr. Wrong is a spicy romantic read with a little humor tossed about. If don't have any other plans for Valentine's Day, it would make a great read.

This book was totally not for me. I thought it was going to be cute and sweet. It was not for me. When Faye told her sister about her marriage, I all but gave up on this book. I mean..... not for me...

Natalie Charles takes her characters on quite the adventure in this book. I really enjoyed watching them try to figure out how to have relationship with all the baggage they both had and the obstacles they faced.
Aletta Osbourne is a kindergarten teacher and writer of children’s books. At least she is until her publisher gets sold to a new publisher that only wants erotica. Lettie isn’t sure how on earth she is going to write erotic books—she doesn’t even read them. Adding to her concerns are her sister’s marriage drama and the new vice principal at her school.
Eric Clayman accepts the position as temporary vice principal of the elementary school in the hopes of getting some experience. He has been working at the middle school and this new position will give him a chance to learn more. He doesn’t expect to be attracted to the kindergarten teacher.
With both Eric and Lettie working together and with Eric technically her boss, their relationship is bound to have some issues. After all, if they decide to date, they have to disclose all to the principal who is not a nice understanding woman. Then there is Lettie’s new writing career. How will the parents of her kindergarteners feel if they learn that their darlings are being taught by a woman who writes erotica??? As Eric and Lettie try to deal with their feelings, we are also introduced to Lettie’s wacky family, a school scandal that leaves everyone wondering and their coworkers.
All in all, I did enjoy this book. There are erotic scenes that Lettie dreams up so be prepared for those if you are at all turned off by that type of writing. I did like how Ms. Charles has Lettie constantly dictating her life as though she was writing it. It made for an interesting glimpse into what she was thinking. There were times when the storyline jumped several weeks which was a little disconcerting. Sometimes the time jump was noted and other times it was a surprise.

I had a hard time with the switching from first person to third person from paragraph to paragraph throughout this book. otherwise I found it an OK read. I wanted to keep reading which may have changed my rating to a 3 except for that constant switching which in many parts was unclear if it was fantasy or just bad editing.
