About this listen

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...

Clive, Clive, Clive....

From the moment I began reading this book, I was laughing so hard iI forgot everything around me!

Clive, the cat was epic... His love for Purina was epic...and loved his thoughts at the end! Can't wait for the next book and his views about "his people"

OK. Enough about the cat! This was a sweet romance!

I was utterly entertained by Caroline and her quest for 'O' only to find that the one person who could get her rocks off was her next door neighbor aptly named 'wallbanger'

Simon on the other hand, having never been in a normal relationship because of his career finds that banging his 'harem' doesn't do it for him anymore... all he wants is Caroline.

A huge part of the book is comical tales as the two tiptoe around each other... and when they finally get on the same page... they play games..winding them up all for the promise of 'delayed gratification!'

The secondary characters were amazing, the antics and loves stories were touching and a nice bonus...

Can't wait to see what Caroline and Simon do in the next book!

I would say definitely worth a credit.

Started well but then got rather tedious

Any additional comments?

I enjoyed this book at first because it was funny, although in a rather over the top way but about 2/3 of the way through I got really bored. It just dragged on and I couldn't see where it could go. I didn't manage to finish it.

loved it...credit worthy

Any additional comments?

It felt a little "Friends"ish with the majority of the plot taking place in between two apartments across the hall from each other but all in all this was a cute story that kept me laughing, crying and cheering them on!The narrator did a fantastic job keeping up with the MANY characters in the story. There was no difficulty identifying which character was speaking. And the naughty sounds and noises - well they were downright naughty!! The one negative comment i would have is that the narrator did not sound like her 26 year old character. She sounded more the aged of a cougar, which was distracting at first. I found myself trying to google her name (while listening to the story) so that I could see how old she actually was!

Should have been titled “How Caroline got her O back!”

This book should’ve been titled “How Caroline Got Her O Back!” I think this was supposed to be a rom-com but I didn’t find any of the scenes in the story funny, mostly they were annoying especially when Caroline is in the scene. She’s a really annoying character and she’s the heroine!
Yeah, I had a rough time getting through this story.
Heather Smith’s narration was okay with what she got to work with.

Very funny writing and characters

Loved this book! Simple premise of hate at first sight (or hearing) develops into friendship and more. The stream of thought commentary with tangents is hysterical. The prolonged delay in consummating their relationship stretched credulity, given that both partners were adults with many previous partners, but did lead to a lot of verbal foreplay.

Mehh..

This book was just ok. It ended nicely and had some memorable moments but the conflict sequence; her personal struggle; his confusion about what love is yada yada yada took too long.

Also the story telling is bland. They teach you in high school writing classes to paint a picture not just plainly state the situation. The writer missed that class.

Way, waaaaay too long

I agree with the people who said the book was way longer than it needed to be and also the person who said it wasn't 'hot' enough. There was so much stuff crammed into this book that didn't need to be there if you just wanted the love story between the H and h. Maybe the author should have written a prequel or something to cover all the other people in the story or just left their stories in their books.

The main H and h in the story don't even make out till well past the halfway point of the book and don't have p/v sex until the very end.

Finally, the narrator: she was ok, but by no means great. My one big problem with her was during the sexual parts, she picked up speed (which is fine to convey excitement, etc) but then you could hear her inhale these long loud breaths before she rushed out with the next line and it got SO obnoxious.

Unless you like a lot of build-up for a tepid outcome, I'd recommend skipping this one.

Narrator sounds older

Narrator sounds much older than 26 and it made some scenes difficult to listen to. Story was fun and had interesting parts.

Cute and funny book

I got the audio book and I admit it was pretty funny in many places. The story was cute... I didn't feel like there was much depth to the book and that's the only reason for the for stars. But this had me laughing out loud plenty. I would still recommend it as a light read.

Hilarious!

What made the experience of listening to Wallbanger the most enjoyable?

This is one of those books that will keep you laughing out loud! Going down the road, driving my car and pure cackeling!!! A riot read. Great story, keeps you going from beginning to end. The only reason, I gave the story a 4 instead of a 5 is at the end, it became the same ole' love story type book. With that said, it is a great read! It will make your funny bone twitch in constant mode!!! It is most definitely worth a credit. As a matter of fact, I listened to it through a friend of mine's account and still downloaded it, so I have it. It's kind of like a motivational funny movie. It can change your whole outlook on your day or multiple days if it takes you that long to listen to it.

What did you like best about this story?

High laugh factor!

What does Heather Smith bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Great voice and really interprets the humor in the book.

If you could rename Wallbanger, what would you call it?

Wallbanger is the perfect title!!!
