"THE REDHEAD PLAYS HER HAND is a Blockbuster hit!"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Redhead Plays Her Hand
Alice Clayton

Reviewed by Annie Tegelan
Posted February 26, 2014

Romance

Grace Sheridan has just scored the lead in a new TV series and she is steadily seeing the Sexiest Man Alive, Jack Hamilton. Though they wish to their relationship out of the public eye and avoid being photographed by the paparazzi, the both of them are finding it harder to maintain a low-key lifestyle. In addition to that, Grace's people have asked her to lose a few pounds for the show, a new struggle that will have Grace watching everything she eats. As she gains more fame, she wonders if it's her lifestyle or her talent that is getting people to notice her.

Alice Clayton's signature humor is front and center in this novel. Outrageous humor and upbeat banter keep the third book in the Redhead series a light and fluffy read. Clayton seems to really excel at dialogue. Jack and Grace's conversations are much like a championship ping pong game -- you can get whiplash from how quick-witted they volley back and forth. Because of this, I think readers find their characters to be very relatable and easy to like. Jack and Grace simply ooze charisma.

As Hollywood and movies are the major theme of this series, if I had to categorize this book, the Redhead series feels like a Romantic Comedy movie. Humor and Romance have a big emphasis and a good time will be had by all!

THE REDHEAD PLAYS HER HAND contains charm and belly aching laughter to the extreme. With charismatic characters that will light up the big screen, you can be sure that when you pick up a Alice Clayton book, you'll be reading a Blockbuster hit!

SUMMARY

The third sexy novel in USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton’s playful and erotic Redhead series continues the sizzling romance between actress Grace Sheridan and Hollywood’s hottest leading man Jack Hamilton.

Grace has landed the lead in a new TV series—but when the director asks her to lose fifteen pounds, she goes public with her weight struggles and suddenly develops a huge fan club who support her right to have curves. But between that and the public’s continuing fascination with her “are they or aren’t they” relationship with Jack, Grace begins to wonder if anyone’s really interested in her because of her upcoming TV series, or if it’s all speculation about the size of her ass and her bedroom partner.

Meanwhile, Jack is voted the Sexiest Man Alive and becomes a little too enamored with the party-hard lifestyle. Grace vows to give him the space he needs to find himself, but then he begins to spiral down from lovable Brit to Hollywood brat. People are talking, but are Jack and Grace? Her career is on the rise, and his continues into the stratosphere, but will she be able to catch him if he falls? Will they ever be able to just be a couple who can hold hands when they walk down the street?
