Nuts | Alice Clayton
33 posts | 43 read | 21 to read
The New York Times bestselling author of Wallbanger and Rusty Nailed is back with Nuts, the first in a brand new series set in New Yorks beautiful Hudson Valley.Roxie Callahan is a private chef to some of Hollywoods wealthiest, and nastiest, calorie-counting wives. After a dairy disaster implodes her carefully crafted career in one fell ploop, she finds herself back home in upstate New York, bailing out her hippie mother and running the family diner. When gorgeous local farmer Leo Maxwell delivers her a lovely bunch of organic walnuts, Roxie wonders if a summer back home isnt such a bad idea after all. Leo is heavily involved in the sustainable slow food movement, and he likes to take his time. In all things. Roxie is determined to head back to the west coast as soon as summer ends, but will the pull of lazy fireflies and her very own Almanzo Wilder be enough to keep her home for good? Salty. Spicy. Sweet. Nuts. Go on, grab a handful.

Hey @andrew65 sorry you are in a slump. I fell that same way. It seems all I want to read are short galleys and I have a ton of book club stuff to get through. So Why don't I make that my goal for #NutsinMay. And Maybe an audiobook or two since I have a lot of yard work and a trip to STL planned.

Happy Reading.

Oh and if you want to watch someone make a fool of themselves to help you get your mojo back, check me out on TicTok.

Trashcanman What's your Tik Tok handle? 3y
LibrarianRyan @Trashcanman same as here. But recently they added a 1 to the end. 3y

As you can see, I‘ve been #ReadingRomance all month long, and it‘s been a blast! I put aside all my other annual goals to just read whatever lovey/cutesy/smutty books that come along and peak my interest. A few of these fall more into women‘s fiction than romance, but all in all it‘s been a very 😍♥️😱😅reading month! #mymonthsofar #february2021

ShelleyBooksie Which one had the best steam? 3y
Clwojick @ShelleyBooksie ooh. Either Nuts! Or Legend by Sawyer Bennett. But I also loved the sparks between the two main characters in The Rouge Not Taken. 3y

Clwojick @CoverToCoverGirl All is SUPER well! Just very very busy getting everything sorted since I‘m working full time/OT, decided to open an online shop, and WE BOUGHT A HOUSE! ♥️♥️ We have way too much going on, but I‘ll be back on Litsy as soon as we‘re all settled into the new home, and my store is up and running (and hopefully my hours at the hospital are back to normal) 😝😜 Miss you all! Hoping to be back in early June 💖 (edited) 3y
CoverToCoverGirl @Clwojick congratulations on the new home, new shop! A lot going on. 🙂 Be well. Be safe! See you in June. 3y
marleed Cassandra - I find myself missing your presence and thinking about you so I thought I‘d come to your last post and send you a message. I‘m so thrilled to see life is too gloriously happy and good for you to post right now. Good luck on all your energetic endeavors! 3y
Clwojick @marleed Awe! I miss you all too! We‘ve just moved in, and we have tons of unpacking to do, but I cant wait to be all settled in and back on Litsy! I already have some readathons planned for the upcoming months! ♥️ 3y

"I loved that the cookbook had grease stains and chocolate speckles throughout. I loved that someone a hundred years ago sat by a fire and shelled walnuts. In much the same way a quilt could tell a story, so could a #recipe. You could approach an old recipe like a detective and whittle out clues about the people who had written it.”

It's safe to say that Alice Clayton is one of my favorite contemporary romance authors currently. Her books are laugh out loud funny. Steamy in all the best places. Loved the Wallbanger series as well.

Bookcation74 Her Redhead series is actually my favorite - they put me in such a good mood. 6y
Ashley_Nicoletto @Bookcation74 Oh my gosh! Good to know! Thank you. I'll definitely read this one too. 6y

3.5 🌟 It was ok. There was an excess of food descriptions.. and some decent chemistry in the last 1/4 of the book. The narrator did a very good job, probably the main reason I kept listening to the book.

This book is making me an Alice Clayton convert. It includes a deliciously comical scene in which the heroine describes her meet-cute in list form. As an enthusiast of lists, I was charmed. #romantsy #therippedbodicebingo

While it's not the most conflict-driven romance, it's light and funny and just what I needed as a palate cleanser. Plus, Roxie's culinary gifts will make you incredibly hungry! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4 stars)

After a disastrous book, I need some Alice Clayton in my life.

mcipher This is too funny. I've never read her but now I think I must. Wait!! Edited to add that I'm wrong and I read half of Wallbanger and couldn't finish it. But I'm still picking this one up. (edited) 7y
ImAnAdult @mcipher This series is way better, in my opinion. Especially if you have a deep love of food! 7y

Kindling tonight in a last-ditch effort to hit my Goodreads goal of 30 books read for 2016. This will be # 30 and should be easy to finish by the end of the week if i enjoy it as much as I enjoyed Wallbanger. Not bad for a year with such a heavy grad school load!

Stunned that anyone thought this title was a selling point for a sweet and slightly steamy romance combining food and flirting.

I had absolutely no expectations going into this book. All I wanted was something that would turn my brain off after a not particularly enjoyable week.

It delivered! And now I really want to bake a cake tomorrow.

brilliantglow Nice stack📚 I'm really excited to read By Gaslight and The Fifth Season. Unfortunately I'm trying to read some books I've bought and haven't gotten around to reading (to the tune of about 150 books) so I'm on a book buying ban until I get through some of them. 7y
JSW Omg THATS IT. By Gaslight. I saw it in a bookstore and then promptly forgot to download a sample. THEN forgot the title. You've reminded me! Thank you so much! 7y
AMVP The Fifth Season's super good, and the sequel, The Obelisk Gate, just came out! 7y

Liberty @AMVP Yes, I have read it! I thought I had a copy and went looking for it again when she won the Hugo, and nearly drove myself mad trying to figure out what happened to it...until I remembered I read an e-galley. 😂 7y
TirzahPrice I adore Bonnie Jo. She lives near me, and always visits my little bookstore when she has a new release. Last time she was by she brought cardboard cutouts of Joyce Carol Oats and Flannery O'Connor. 7y
