What’s worse than losing everything? Try driving a phallic-shaped RV across the country with a coworker you hate?
Copywriter Callie Murphy has a bad attitude, a vicious tongue, and a serious aversion to Shimura Advertising’s resident manwhore, Walker Rhodes. Know where he can stick his good looks and Southern charm? She can think of a few creative places. Avoiding him wouldn’t be a problem, except her boss threatens to fire her if she doesn’t go along with him on their RV client’s cross-country tour.
Burnt-out art director, Walker, is sick of his job, tired of women, and in a big old creative rut. The upcoming client road trip is just what he needs to shake things up and rediscover his lost passion. But his plans go south when his partner drops out at the last minute, and Callie, the foul-mouthed tiny terror, takes her place. Unless he can find a way to thaw his icy coworker, he’s looking at two months of pure hell.
On the road, they experience one hilarious misadventure after another and soon find themselves on a life-changing journey. But when their paths veer off in different directions, will they hit a dead end?
Road-Tripped is a stand-alone novel and the first book in the Ad Agency Series. Adult language and situations.
Road Tripped is the first book in the new adult romantic comedy series, called The Ad Agency series, by Nicole Archer. I think you can technically call this book adult contemporary romance as well, it the characters still felt kind of new adult age range to me, and this book cracked me up so much that I elevated it to romantic comedy status. I I love a road trip, especially in a book with a romance element. I just find something hilarious about two romantic interests being trapped in vehicle for an extended period of time. And I have to say, the route for Road Tripped is no joke. It is a seriously long road trip!
Road Tripped is told in dual narrative between Callie and Walker. I loved how Callie and Walker each had such distinct personalities. They each cracked me up in their own way. Callie is the master of glares and Walker is just plain awesome. At first, I didn’t understand why Callie seemed to bitter with everyone and everything. I thought she needed an attitude adjustment, but eventually her sense of humor and general grumpiness won me over. I am a Callie convert! I loved how Callie was always writing something, like how to strangle your co-workers, and how she was naming her glares had me chuckling to no end. Walker and Callie totally misread each other at the first glance, and there is nothing like being trapped in a cross country trip to fix misconceptions. Road Tripped is hilarious, sweet, and a completely satisfying read.
Bottom line: Fans of funny romances, and of road trips will get a total kick out of Road-Tripped. I had a blast with this story. I haven’t laughed this hard in a long while with a book. I can’t wait to continue with the Ad Agency series. (and on that note, can I please work there….they have parties all the time during the day, and an arcade/jungle gym in the middle of their office?!) If you are looking for a laugh paired with a great romance, read Road-Tripped.
