{Blog Tour & Giveaway} Rusty Nailed (Cocktail #2) by Alice Clayton (@Alice_Clayton)

In this sequel to Wallbanger, the second book in the Cocktail series, fan favorites Caroline and Simon negotiate the rollercoaster of their new relationship while house-sitting in San Francisco.

Playing house was never so much fun—or so confusing. With her boss on her honeymoon, Caroline’s working crazy long hours to keep the interior design company running—especially since she’s also the lead designer for the renovation of a gorgeous old hotel on Sausalito. So with her hotshot photographer boyfriend gallivanting all over the world for his job, she and Simon are heavy-duty into “absence makes the heart grow fonder” mode. Neither has any complaints about the great reunion sex, though! Then Simon decides he’s tired of so much travelling, and he’s suddenly home more. A lot more. And wanting Caroline home more, too. Though their friends’ romantic lives provide plenty of welcome distraction, eventually Caroline and Simon have to sort their relationship out. Neither wants “out of sight, out of mind,” but can they create their own happy mid-ground cliché?

USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton delivers another delicious, frothy cocktail of a book, shaking up her characters, stirring in laugh-out-loud humor, and serving sizzling romance straight up!

Caroline and Simon are trying their hand at coupledom.  They have fallen into a comfortable routine of working, traveling and yes, nooking. They have the support of their wonderful (and sometimes crazy!) circle of friends.  Life seems perfect.

“Think you can help me with this turtleneck?”

“I do.”

“And then after that, you wanna show me your hammer?” I asked the front of his T-shirt, nuzzling at him, positioning my legs on either side of him.  In answer, he thrust up and let me feel that very hammer.  I chuckled.  “Mmm, am I gonna get nailed?”

But when Caroline’s boss goes on an extended honeymoon, pressures from work threaten to overwhelm her.  And now when Simon’s career seems to allow him more time at home, she finds herself at the crossroads of every successful woman – can she really have it all without compromising what she loves the most – Simon Parker.

“Romance novels, schmomance novels, here’s how Wallbanger does it.”

I was skeptical.  I thought that there was no way that Alice could top the original Wallbanger.  I can tell you that she has proven me wrong in the most brilliant of ways!  She continues to dazzle with her unstoppable dialog and wit while bringing a real authenticity to her characters.

Get ready to be amazed, Banger Nation!  Rusty Nailed is now the ideal by which all other romantic comedies will be measured…
