Alice Clayton

The third in the hilarious yet sizzling hot Hudson Valley series from New York Time and USA TODAY bestselling author Alice Clayton. Clara Morgan is living the dream, if you can call rebranding hotels that are desperate for a new life and running any kind of marathon a dream. Which she does. But the career she loves and the endurance races that keep her adrenaline pumping have kept her too busy to put down any roots. Growing up in foster care, she’s never been able to establish traditions of her own, which may be why she’s fascinated by the rituals that generations-old family resorts are known for. She’s especially interested in the Bryant Mountain House, and not just for their secret recipe for the yummy, gooey, can’t-get-enough-of Hot Cross Buns…. Archie Bryant, the man with the Buns, is fifth generation and one-day-owner of the charming yet run-down Bryant Mountain House in Bailey Falls, New York. He’s determined to save his family’s legacy from the wrecking ball the old-fashioned way—by gritting his teeth and doing what needs to be done. There’s no way Archie will be influenced by the new hotel branding expert his father brought in to turn one hundred and fifty years of tradition on its head just to attract a faster, younger, slicker crowd. But when some of Clara’s ideas start bringing in new, paying customers, Archie can’t deny that she may have just given him a shot at keeping his resort open. It’s sticky, it’s messy, it’s sweet, it’s Buns.

Buns

Buns was such a fun installment and what a great finale to this trilogy. I was a bit nervous about this one as the second book was a bit slow for me. So that is why I did this one in audiobook but I have to say this book was FANTASTIC in audio. I just loved being able to listen to this one. It was so delightful and the narration was just right on this one here. There was something so unique about this story that just drew me in and is my favorite of the trilogy. Just with the combination of opposites attract, the sassy sexual tension, witty bantering and the charming small New York town that just drew me in right away.

Buns is a story that features two stubborn creatures that are behind it. The heroine is a workaholic. She works on saving hotels. She comes to Hudson Valley to save Bryan Mountain House. The head and owner of the hotel, is stubborn and fighting her every step of the way but Clara is determined to save the hotel and make sure that Archie sees reason. But these two clash in the worst of ways and their love affair ends up fierce and passionate....

There was something PURE FUN about this book. I just couldn't get enough of these two and the way in which they go back and forth with each other. You just feel the drawn tight tension that builds so wonderfully between them. From one moment they are arguing and then the next moment they are kissing each other like they need each other to breathe. Its super intense but also hilarious. I just loved the way that these two end up arguing and working together.

Overall I found Buns to be a delightful installment that had me falling so quickly in love with these characters and their intense romance!

I just love reading any of Alice Clayton titles. She will always write funny romance read that it will make your day no matter what. She does it in any of her titles especially Buns.
Buns will bring the last member, Clara, to Bailey Falls. Clara is the very independent person in the friend group. She will always have her things on point for any occasion. She has a hard lesson in life that she has an independent lifestyle. But things will start to unravel when she meets the hardheaded yet sexy, Archie Bryant.
Archie Bryant is a brilliant yet stubborn man in Bryant Mountain House. He works very hard in his family that he does not care for any outsider opinion especially the feisty yet sexy, Clara. Clara has so much guidance in his family business that he takes to take notice if he wants it to run in the long-haul. While he is making changes to the business, he is also starting a thing with Clara.
Clara and Archie may argument when it comes to changes things in the business. But they definitely have an intense chemistry between them that it is so hot to read. It is definitely hot between them that they definitely go for it. But they will have some challenges because they have baggage to go through. Every relationship has some bumpy road but it takes courage to overcome them. And I definitely know Clara and Archie can.
Buns are the right message for Clara and Archie because they will definitely bond over buns and more. It is a fun yet light romance read with funny moments in between. Four stars.

Buns is the third book in the Hudson Valley series and they can all be read as stand-alone books.

I started reading this book in the afternoon and just like all previous books by Alice Clayton that I have read so far, I wasn't able to put it down. I absolutely loved Clara and Archie together.

This book is funny, sweet, romantic and emotional. 

I highly recommend this book series.

I give this 5 out of 5.

It was cute. I wanted to read this since I read the others in the series. Alice Clayton should write for a miniseries on Netflix or something
