Alice Clayton

    1 januari 1950

    Alice Clayton werkte meer dan tien jaar in de cosmetica-industrie voordat ze zich op het schrijven richtte. Haar werk verkent vaak luchtige thema's, gekenmerkt door een geestige en humoristische stijl die lezers aanspreekt die op zoek zijn naar een vermakelijke ontsnapping. Ze creëert verhalen waarin personages romantiek en levensvreugde ontdekken door middel van amusante en vaak onverwachte omstandigheden. Clayton's narratieve aanpak maakt haar een auteur bij uitstek voor diegenen die houden van leuke, fantasierijke verhalen met gedenkwaardige persoonlijkheden.

      Die New York Times und USA TODAY Bestsellerautorin von „Wallbanger – Ein Nachbar zum Verlieben“ ist zurück mit einer neuen heiteren und sexy Serie. Willkommen im Hudson Valley. Natalie Grayson ist der Inbegriff des Manhattan It-Girls. Sie liebt ihre Stadt, ihren Job in der Werbebranche, hat viele Freunde, eine Familie, und Männer umschwirren sie, wie die sprichwörtlichen Motten das Licht. Was kann Frau sich mehr wünschen? Die Antwort drauf ist natürlich Käse! Natalies Highlight der Woche ist ihr samstäglicher Einkauf auf dem Bauernmarkt am Union Square. Dort gönnt sie sich regelmäßig den besten und fettesten Brie, den man kriegen kann. Gleichzeitig gönnt sie sich auch einen Blick auf den tollsten Kerl, den sie je gesehen hat. Oscar Mendoza, Besitzer der Bailey Falls Molkerei und Hersteller der erlesensten Käse aus dem Hudson Valley. Er ist groß, dunkel, mysteriös und schlichtweg erste Sahne. Normalerweise hat sie keine Probleme, einen Mann anzusprechen, doch bei Oscar brennen ihr regelmäßig alle Sicherungen durch und sie bekommt kaum ein Wort heraus. Als ihr Job sie ins Hudson Valley führt, könnte das Blatt sich allerdings wenden.

      Avery Bardot steps off the plane in Rome, looking for a fresh start. She’s left behind a soon-to-be ex-husband in Boston and plans to spend the summer with her best friend Daisy, licking her wounds—and perhaps a gelato or two. But when her American-expat friend throws her a welcome party on her first night, Avery’s thrown for a loop when she sees a man she never thought she’d see again: Italian architect Marcello Bianchi. Marcello was the man—the one who got away. And now her past is colliding with her present, a present where she should be mourning the loss of her marriage and—hey, that fettuccine is delicious! And so is Marcello… Slipping easily into the good life of summertime in Rome, Avery spends her days exploring a city that makes art historians swoon, and her nights swooning over her unexpected what was old is new again romance. It’s heady, it’s fevered, it’s wanton, and it’s crazy. But could this really be her new life? Or is it just a temporary reprieve before returning to the land of twin-set cardigans and crustless sandwiches? A celebration of great friendship, passionate romance, and wonderful food, Roman Crazy is a lighthearted story of second chances and living life to the fullest.

      “An instant classic…highly recommended!” —New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Jennifer Probst USA TODAY bestselling indie author Alice Clayton delights readers with the sexy, laugh-out-loud romance of Caroline and Simon in Wallbanger, the first book in the Cocktail series! 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.
