New Release: Rusty Nailed by Alice Clayton. #giveaway


Happy Release Day to Rusty Nailed by Alice Clayton!! I LOVED this book so much!! Come check it out, and be sure to enter the giveaway at the bottom!!




Synopsis:


In this sequel to Wallbanger, the second book in the Cocktail series, fan favorites Caroline and Simon negotiate the rollercoaster of their new relationship while house-sitting in San Francisco.

Playing house was never so much fun—or so confusing. With her boss on her honeymoon, Caroline’s working crazy long hours to keep the interior design company running—especially since she’s also the lead designer for the renovation of a gorgeous old hotel on Sausalito. So with her hotshot photographer boyfriend gallivanting all over the world for his job, she and Simon are heavy-duty into “absence makes the heart grow fonder” mode. Neither has any complaints about the great reunion sex, though! Then Simon decides he’s tired of so much travelling, and he’s suddenly home more. A lot more. And wanting Caroline home more, too. Though their friends’ romantic lives provide plenty of welcome distraction, eventually Caroline and Simon have to sort their relationship out. Neither wants “out of sight, out of mind,” but can they create their own happy mid-ground cliché?

USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton delivers another delicious, frothy cocktail of a book, shaking up her characters, stirring in laugh-out-loud humor, and serving sizzling romance straight up!

Blog Tour: The Redhead Plays Her Hand by Alice Clayton. Review and Giveaway.

 
 
The third sexy novel in USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton’s playful and erotic Redhead series continues the sizzling romance between actress Grace Sheridan and Hollywood’s hottest leading man Jack Hamilton.

Grace has landed the lead in a new TV series—but when the director asks her to lose fifteen pounds, she goes public with her weight struggles and suddenly develops a huge fan club who support her right to have curves. But between that and the public’s continuing fascination with her “are they or aren’t they” relationship with Jack, Grace begins to wonder if anyone’s really interested in her because of her upcoming TV series, or if it’s all speculation about the size of her ass and her bedroom partner.

Meanwhile, Jack is voted the Sexiest Man Alive and becomes a little too enamored with the party-hard lifestyle. Grace vows to give him the space he needs to find himself, but then he begins to spiral down from lovable Brit to Hollywood brat. People are talking, but are Jack and Grace? Her career is on the rise, and his continues into the stratosphere, but will she be able to catch him if he falls? Will they ever be able to just be a couple who can hold hands when they walk down the street?


My thoughts:

The Redhead Plays Her Hand by Alice Clayton
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Redhead series is definitely one of my favorite series ever!! It's hard to explain how, at the same time, I'm as happy as I am sad to finish this book. I am so going to miss Sweet Nuts and Crazy!!

While the first two in the Redhead series were more lighthearted and fun, the roles in The Redhead Plays Her Hand were reversed and it takes a more serious turn. While it's usually Grace's narrative humor that lightens everything up, because of the growth and maturity she shows this time around, there aren't as many funny moments. In fact, I kinda cried a few times, but the way it's written, it totally works!!

While Grace moves forward, Jack definitely takes a few steps back this time. But seriously, with that kind of fame, who can blame him?? His character is written real. His spiral made me bite my nails and stress quite a bit, but it made me love the Brit all the more. Oh, I am going to miss my Brit!!

As I've already said, I love this series! It is definitely one of my favorite that I have read in 2013, if not THE series of the year. The way The Redhead Plays Her Hand ended was perfect for the book and the series, and while I would always jump at a chance to read more about Nuts and Crazy, I'm also more than happy with how the cards lie.

Let the boobies live on!!

Alice enjoys pickles, Bloody Mary’s, 8 hours of sleep, and a good pounding.

Finally Alice would also like all her readers and listeners to help her convince Mt. Alice that the only other thing that would make her truly happy is finally bringing home a Bernese Mountain Dog. She is totally serious. And done talking about herself in the third person

Celebrating the re-release of The Unidentified Redhead by Alice Clayton

 
 
The first in USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton’s Redhead series is a playful and erotic romance between an aspiring actress and Hollywood’s hottest new leading man.

When Grace Sheridan returns to Los Angeles to become a working actress, it’s a second shot at a life-long dream. With some help from her best-friend agent, will that dream become a reality—or at thirty-three, has Grace missed her chance at the big time? And when an unexpected sizzling romance with Jack Hamilton, the entertainment industry's newest “it” boy, threatens to shine an uncomfortable spotlight on her life, how will that affect her career…and his?

Funny, borderline neurotic Grace is perfect in her imperfections, and the sexual chemistry between her and charming yet blissfully unaware Jack is off the charts. With laugh-out-loud dialogue and a super-steamy romance that will get your heart racing, sneaking around in L.A. and dodging the paparazzi has never been so fun.
 
 
My Thoughts:
 
Where do I start? I cannot tell you how many times I laughed rather loudly while reading this. At one point I even spit Gatorade down the front of my shirt! From the first page...actually from the first sentence...this book grabs you and doesn't let go!
The way the scenes are written had me laughing like I was right there watching it all unfold, and I CANNOT get enough of all the sexual innuendos! When Holly yells "the British are coming!" was the moment I lost my Gatorade!
The one worry I had going into it was that the steamy parts would be a tad corny, as I have a hard time finding books that have a perfect balance of humor and steam. The Unidentified Redhead not only has that balance, it is the gold standard for it. It is brilliantly hot! You have got to meet Mr. Hot Shit, the U.K version.
If you're a fan of Wallbanger, this book is a must. If you haven't read Alice Clayton before, go...run and grab a copy now! This is one of those books that you want to hand out copies to everyone that you know!
 
5 hilarious and hot stars!!

About the Author:
 
 
Novelist Alice Clayton makes her home in St. Louis where she enjoys gardening but not weeding, baking but not cleaning up after, and is trying desperately to get her long-time boyfriend to make her an honest woman--and please buy her a Bernese Mountain dog.
After working for years in the cosmetics industry as a makeup artist, esthetician, and educator, Alice picked up a pen (read laptop) for the first time at 33 to begin a new career: author. Having never written anything longer than a grocery list, she soon found writing to be the creative outlet she'd been missing since walking away from the theater 10 years before.
She has a great time combining her love of storytelling with a sense of silly, and she was shocked and awed to be nominated for a Goodreads Author award in 2010 for her debut novels, the first two installments of The Redhead Series--The Unidentified Redhead and The Redhead Revealed. Her latest novel Wallbanger is a return to her trademark comedic erotica, or funny smut, that Alice has become known for.
Additionally, Alice loves spending time with her besties on Not Your Mother's Podcast (check them out on iTunes) and has recently partnered with actor Greg Grunberg, blogger Brittany Gibbons, and actress Keili Lefkovitz on a new travel show that will begin filming in January.
Alice enjoys pickles, Bloody Marys, eight hours of sleep and a good pounding.
