Idk what I was expecting going into this read but what I got was a showtime movie! 😩😩

Wisdom was minding her business working her second job as a Uber eats delivery driver when she mistakenly delivers to the wrong house! Her 🍑 got more than she bargained for when she walked into some mess!! Whew sis was a rider for sure and Crimson couldn’t help but hold her in the highest regard after she came through in a major way!

This was a really good read and had tons of potential. There were obvious editing issues. Her aunt Willow was referred to as her cousin on multiple occasions and how was she able to text pictures of what Willow looked like to Crimson when she had a brand new phone that wasn’t set up yet?! Where the pictures come from 🤨.

I love when short stories give you the illusion of a full length novel! And can’t wait to see how this story concludes.

A good mistake!

Whew Crimson! This was my first read by this author and it won't be my last. The character development was great as well as the storyline. Crimson was a good person to Wisdom after saving his life. This was a great love story with two characters finding love by mistake.

This was such a cute novella. Who knew being at the wrong place at the wrong time, could be the best mistake of your life.

This was a quick read, but hilarious and action packed! Wisdom, was already having one her worse days, and then to happen upon all that! Whew! Crimson is going to be trouble I see. Aunt Willow is a damn fool! I just can't with her! Ready to dive into the next one, and see what happens next. 👍👍👍

Wiz meets Crim

Wisdom meets Crimson unexpectedly. She puts her cape on to save him. Crimson felt like he owed her, but feelings got involved, and he had to have her.

I went into this blind, not knowing what to expect. This was good, even though some parts didn’t make sense. Making my way to part two.

Questions

Hmmm 🤔, WHAT?…REALLY?…HOW?…WHO? …WHY⁉️ Exactly how much weed did Wisdom ingest🥴? “You’re My Favorite Mistake” was mediocre. Definitely, this read wasn’t my favorite novella from Ms. Austin. More so, I respect & appreciate the art of creativity & and vivid imagination, however there was no context, logic and or explanation for White’s thirty two circumstances. Maybe, Wisdom hasn’t watched enough crime TV😬⁉️

No Mistakes Here

Chiiiiiile, I don't know if I should be sad or happy about the turn of events because the way Wisdoms life just got elevated doesn't seem like a bad thing to me. Auntie Willow had me literally laughing out loud and I am immediately going to book two to see how this plays out.

Quick and to the point…. Loved it

I loved this little sample and hope that you give us more on these characters. Wisdom is a sweetheart and did what any decent human being would do. Crimson was grateful and lucky for her making that mistake ❤️

Mistakes

I guess this is a comedy? Crimson is found bleeding profusely and Wisdom saves him by getting him to the hospital. The things she did to get him help should have killed him; I mean completely finished him off. She gets the good Samaritan award I guess.

wisdom

Wisdom was working 2 jobs to make ends meet. After getting drenched on the way home from her 1st job she regrouped to go to her second job! This night would change her life for the better or the worse. A quick good read!

Wow

Crimson was a God sent to this girl and she was one to him also. Who would have thought going to the wrong house would have been both of their blessings.
