Publisher's summary

The first night after Caroline moves into her fantastic new San Francisco apartment, she realizes she’s gaining an - um - intimate knowledge of her new neighbor’s nocturnal adventures. Thanks to paper-thin walls and the guy’s athletic prowess, she can hear not just his bed banging against the wall but the ecstatic response of what seems (as loud night after loud night goes by) like an endless parade of women. And since Caroline is currently on a self-imposed "dating hiatus," and her neighbor is clearly lethally attractive to women, she finds her fantasies keep her awake even longer than the noise. So when the wallbanging threatens to literally bounce her out of bed, Caroline, clad in sexual frustration and a pink baby-doll nightie, confronts Simon Parker, her heard-but-never-seen neighbor. The tension between them is as thick as the walls are thin, and the results just as mixed. Suddenly, Caroline is finding she may have discovered a whole new definition of neighborly....

In a delicious mix of silly and steamy, Alice Clayton dishes out a hot and hilarious tale of exasperation at first sight...

Enjoyable read

Where does Wallbanger rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It is one I will listen to more than once most likely. Not an absolute fav but I did enjoy it.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Caroline, she was realistic and funny

Which character – as performed by Heather Smith – was your favorite?

Ditto

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

There was one part where the two main characters were arguing like a couple of teenagers (they are adults) and it was very funny and made the characters seem more like normal people

Any additional comments?

Worth the credit or money

"O" So Much Fun!

What made the experience of listening to Wallbanger the most enjoyable?

The narrator made it come to life! I laughed outloud often, such a fun listen!

What other book might you compare Wallbanger to and why?

Very unique story line and I'm a sucker for romantic comedies. I love to laugh! The only other books that made me laugh this much are "and one last thing" by Molly Harper and anything by Jill Shalvis, Rachel Gibson and Susan Andersen.

Which scene was your favorite?

Its hard to choose just one but I think when the cat decided to protect Caroline from Simon during sex.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Simon came back early from Spain to find out why?

Any additional comments?

More Heather Smith and Alice Clayton please!

Just okay for me.....

There was no real excitement in the book for me......I think the best part was at the cabin! It wasn't a bad book, just nothing really jumped out for me....nothing separated this book from the other "average" romance books that I have read out there.

Entertaining but not life changing

This was an entertaining listen but did not have much story. There was a story but it could have gone deeper with the characters. Also, there was a lot of sex3 but not a lot of romance so it was difficult to feel the chemistry and flow. The narrator was excellent! Worth the listen but when I finish a read, I want to miss the characters and think about them. Will not be doing that with this one.

It was OK

I found the story to be a bit odd, like having silly names for each other's genitals, or talking to and licking bellybuttons. Just not my cup of tea I guess. Also, some of the transitions were hard to audibly follow. I'm sure in the print version they are fine.
