Length: 13 hrs and 52 mins

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...

So Disappointed!

Is there anything you would change about this book?

I love this book, but I can't even with this narrator. My God. I should have sampled her voice before buying, but usually the reader has to be pretty bad for me to stop listening.
I'm returning this purchase.

What did you like best about this story?

It's hilarious. And super sexy... You just have to wait a little longer for it. ;)

What didn’t you like about Heather Smith’s performance?

Nothing.

7 hours too long!

Loved the concept but this book but it felt like a 6 hour story s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d into a 13 hour book. I listened to the entire book but it was a chore.

Bless my soul

Don't bother to read the reviews. Use your credit or just purchase it!!!!!!!!! I promise your gonna sit, drive your car, run, or whatever you do while you listen with a BIG smile on your face. This one is one I'd give 10 stars cause it's just that good.

GREAT LISTEN - IT KEPT ME SMILING THROUGHOUT

Now hold on because I'm going to gush a little here.... this was such a fun listen with lol hilarious bits (especially with the cat). It was also an entertaining and romantic listen that had that 'feel good factor' and, as the sexual chemistry kept building between H/H, it got even more so. It had a dreamy 6 pack handsome hero and a good supporting cast of characters that added another dynamic to the storyline as we hear what all the texts say as they fly between each of the six characters.

I hadn't heard of this author before but I will definitely be looking out for any of her future books.

Worth a credit? The hours of listening pleasure this brings you makes this a very credit-worthy listen - so, in my book, that's a YES.

Trite and Boring

I'm not sure where all these stellar reviews are coming from but I sure expected more from this book. The characters are really caricatures. Maybe the narration was part of the problem and made the first person story even more banal. So if you enjoy listening to a woman complain about her lack of orgasms for hours, well this is the book for you. I'm sorry I wasted my time on this.

####WORTH YOUR CREDIT#### HOWEVER!!!!

Any additional comments?

This was a good book...Sexy, Super Funny, Interesting, and the Narration was great.. My only problem was at the end, the last chapters were disapointing...The way she talks about her Orgasims is kinda ridiculous.. It got boring at the end..Had to boost up the speed.. However its well worth the credit =)

Very pleasant surprise

This was a really cute romance! The humor was probably the best part. If you're into a little sarcasm and innuendo, this is the book for you. I adored the main male character Simon, but by far my favorite character was Clive the cat...hilarious! I wouldn't say that the narration was superb, but tolerable for sure. Initially I could hear every inhale the narrator made and it was just too much and a little too dramatic, but, I got into the storyline and all was well. I'd buy another Alice Clayton book for sure. A lighthearted read/listen if in need of a little romantic escape.

Having fun and laughing with Friends

What did you like best about this story?

The author incorporated not only conversations but the use of how 'texting' as impacted how we communicate

If you could rename Wallbanger, what would you call it?

Perfect name

Any additional comments?

This is an easy listen, with some very funny scenes. At one point I was laughing so hard I had to rewind just to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Just OK

What did you like best about Wallbanger? What did you like least?

I enjoyed the humor and it did make me smile. However, I found that I was overall bored with the story. The book was very long and predictable.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

The whole book you were waiting for the what happens at the ending but it was repetitive.

Truly enjoyable listen

The story and the narrator worked great together for an enjoyable listen. I was entertained the entire time.
