Alice Clayton, the New York Times best-selling author of Wallbanger and The Unidentified Redhead, brings the sexy and the funny back with this dangerously rich and sinfully decadent dollop of Cream.

Manhattan's It Girl, Natalie Grayson, has it all. She's a hot exec at a leading advertising firm, known industrywide for her challenging and edgy campaigns. She's got a large circle of friends and a family that loves her dearly, and her dance card is nearly always full with handsome eligible bachelors. What else could a modern gal-about-town wish for? The answer, of course, is...cheese.

Natalie's favorite part of each week is spending Saturday morning at the Union Square Farmer's Market, where she indulges her love of all things triple cream. Her favorite booth to visit also happens to indulge her love of all things handsome. Oscar Mendoza, owner of the Bailey Falls Creamery and purveyor of the finest artisanal cheeses the Hudson Valley has to offer, is tall, dark, mysterious, and a bit oblivious. Or so she thinks. But that doesn't stop Natalie from fantasizing about the size of his milk can....

Romance is churning, passion is burning, and something incredible is rising to the top. Cream.

I really liked this second installment. It unfolded at a good pace, offered a good amount of character development. This book is about Natalie a woman from NYC and a dairy farmer who we met in book one. To be fair, we briefly met Natalie as well. I especially liked the background story of Natalie. Clayton did a fine job of illuminating her strengths and weaknesses making her strong, flawed as we all are, but strong. Oscar, her love interest, had his moments when I wanted to scream at him for being shortsighted., but hey it is a romance novel. Loved the curse-can shaking comic relief.

Most of the book is narrated by Olivia Song (all but 9 minutes) and she does a great job. Deacon Lee did the Epilogue. Song should have got top billing here. Lee gets a pass. In the book, Clayton sets up the next friend ideally to be bitten by Bailey Falls. Can't wait to read it. I give it a thumbs -- big.

About cheese, not cheesey

Oh how I loved this book! First of all, I have a MAJOR girl crush on the heroine, Natalie. She is admittedly a big girl, she's not ashamed of it and she has so much confidence it's contagious! She's spunky, funny and bold. I had so much fun with this book! I absolutely LOVED Olivia Song's spirited and animated performance. I'll definitely be looking up more of her Audiobooks. Alice Clayton delivers another fantastic story worthy of all the side splitting pain you are going to endure while laughing and all the hot flashes you are going to endure while swooning.

I'm going to need more Olivia Song!

Would you consider the audio edition of Cream of the Crop to be better than the print version?

I think they are both fine.

Would you recommend Cream of the Crop to your friends? Why or why not?

I mean it's a smutty fun summer read. I just didn't find the characters to be as likable as I did in the first book.

Which character – as performed by Deacon Lee and Olivia Song – was your favorite?

I guess the main character, or Roxy's hilarious daughter.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It just made me laugh, no crying. :)

Not as good as nuts.

Generally story was sweet but they frequently point out that they don’t talk enough to really know each other so they jump into bed and forget to talk. The worst was the hotdog incident. Before he went into his long rant about how unreasonable she was being, someone should have asked how he would feel if she was the one with an ex who did not respect her new relationship and observe reasonable boundaries. If he retorted that he wouldn’t be so rude to her ex she could point out that he wouldn’t have to because she would tell her ex he needs to respect her relationship. She was made out to be the unreasonable one and he was allowed to have his muffins and his big bottom. I can’t believe a woman wrote this point of view.

Disappointing

Cream of the Crop is the second book in the Hidden Valley series. It can be listened to as a standalone.

Natalie is the definition of a New York executive business woman. She is curvy and has learned to be confident in her skin and make men look at her full figure twice. She was burned in a past relationship, so her heart isn't up for grabs, but feel free to grab her body, please.

Oscar is an ex-NFL football player who was sidelined in his seventh professional game. He used his signing bonus to buy a dairy farm. Now he runs Bailey Falls Creamery, making some of the finest hand made cheeses anywhere and selling them at the farmer's market on the weekend.

These two bump into each other almost every week. Oscar isn't big with words, being more of an action man. Normally well spoken Natalie finds herself nervous and tongue-tied as soon as she is near Oscar. For months their only interaction is "Brie?" " Oh. Yes. "

Natalie gets the account from the Bailey Falls mayor to do some advertising and commercials to draw more people to their beloved town. Of course, she gets to finally say more to Oscar also. This fun city vs country romance comedy was a joy to hear. I loved Nuts, the first in this series, and this was fun as well, if a bit more far fetched at times. Cute couple that has a lot to overcome outside the bedroom, but can set the barn on fire inside it.

I liked it so much, that I listened to it twice. I enjoyed it, laughed out loud, just as much the second time around.

the book was great but the male voice in the epilogue did not match the character description. sounded like an old man trying top be young... lost some appeal at the end

Needed different epilogue voice

Narration so bland it was hard to finish. Story week, loved the charters in Nuts, but this one didn’t do it for me.

Hard to finish

Oscar and Natalie are on fire! It was so nice to enter Bailey Falls again and not only fall in love with Oscar and Natalie, but to check back in with Leo and Roxy! I'm eagerly awaiting Clara's story!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Sexy and adorable

Another fun read from this author. I listened to the audio version and found the narration really good.

This wasn't a passionate love story but there was lots of fantastic sex between Natalie & Oscar. I loved how forward & confident she was with him.

I really enjoyed listening to this light hearted story.

Light hearted, fun read
