Plus it has the longest URST (unresolved sexual tension) I’ve ever read, to the point where I was telling the main characters, ‘just get it on’!īut let me backtrack – I’ve told you this is a romance based novel, but what’s it actually about? Wallbanger is told from the first person point of view of Caroline, interior designer (not decorator!), who has just moved into a fantastic apartment in San Francisco. It’s also not ashamed to be honest – there’s discussion of orgasms (mainly lack of, in Caroline’s case) and sexual fantasies. It seemed the perfect thing for a light read especially as many people commented on how hilarious the book was (in a good way).įunny, sexy and honest – Wallbanger is an original take on the romance genre, as it’s equally sexy and sweet. It seemed that everyone was reading and loving it all at once, including several people whose reviews I respect and regard as my ‘I really should check this out’ reading list. Wallbanger is a book that suddenly appeared on my radar via social media. Publisher: Gallery Books (Simon & Schuster)
Why I chose it: Have read many positive reviews online. The not-so-good: A little drawn out in places – will Caroline and Simon EVER get it together? The good: It’s very funny and also the first in a series. After a confrontation in a pink nightie, life is going to get a lot more complicated… In a delicious mix of silly and steamy, Alice Clayton dishes out a hot and hilarious tale of exasperation at first sight.In brief: Caroline thought she was doing well with her nice new apartment until she finds out her new neighbour is the loud nocturnal kind. Suddenly, Caroline is finding she may have discovered a whole new definition of neighborly. The tension between them is as thick as the walls are thin, and the results just as mixed. 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. 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. 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. 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.
