by ALICE CLAYTON
The first night after Caroline moves into her fantastic new San Francisco apartment, she realizes she's gaining an 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...
REVIEW: 5 STARS
Ok….this came highly recommended to me. Highly. So I decided I will give it a whirl and check it out. Let me just say this: I want to bake loaves of bread for Simon, and I want to listen to old school music…..through a wall. This book was HOT and FUNNY. It had me laughing really hard….but, the best part was, it wasn’t only a funny and laughable book, it was a romantic and sweet read as well.
Caroline has had a few mishaps in her sexual adventures leading up to the absence of her “O”. Yes, her “O”. She moves into a flat in San Francisco and ends up living next door to Simon, who apparently is the King of the “O”. After Caroline moves in, we get to hear Simon’s sexcapades with a few ladies who have earned themselves some rather comical nicknames from Caroline, based on what she hears through the wall while they are with Simon. Let the comedy ensue. After a few nights of listening to some wall banging action, Caroline takes matters into her own hands and decides to confront the ‘Wallbanger’ to tell him to knock it off.
From here, the fun begins. Chance meetings, angry kisses and a truce later, Simon and Caroline start to venture into a different relationship. One of smart mouthing, text messaging, sexual innuendos and a pussy named Clive…..yes, worthy. Very worthy.
I laughed so hard during this book…..even my husband started to ask what was so funny. I absolutely loved the inner dialogue from Caroline. Totally made the book enjoyable. Serious laughing…..serious!! Some funny excerpts that I couldn’t stop laughing at:
This book has a very swoon-worthy and moan-worthy 5 stars!!! I loved this book and will happily recommend it to ANYone!!!

"I shook as I felt his hands reach lower to grasp my bottom and pull me closer still, my legs scrambling as I panted like a whore in church. The Church Of Simon….where I was dying to kneel before him.
He was wooing me. And I was letting him woo. I wanted the woo. I deserved the woo. I needed the wow that would surely follow the woo, but for now, the woo? It was whoa.
He rained kisses down my neck, licking and sucking as I moaned like a whore in church. To be fair, I’d never actually heard a whore moan in church, but I had a feeling it sounded a lot like the unholy sounds pouring forth from my mouth."
This book has a very swoon-worthy and moan-worthy 5 stars!!! I loved this book and will happily recommend it to ANYone!!!
