Welcome to week five of ALL OF COURT'S MEN
This week we are focusing on the witty, sexy and gorgeous hunk that is Alex from
Confessions of an Alli Cat.
I discovered Alli Cat 2 years ago, it was my very first Courtney Cole book, and laughed so hard I couldn't breathe.
My sides actually ached while reading the hilarious scenes, some of which included a Brazilian wax, a hot tub and Botox ~ NOT all at the same time I might add!
When I wasn't crying and clutching my sides with laughing I was fanning myself over the HOT scenes.
This is one book you definitely need to read!!! ~ Andrea
*******
Caution! Only read this book if you want to laugh and are not offended at adult themes and language. This is not a Young Adult book.

Synopsis
Thirty-five
year-old Allison “Alli” Lancaster has it all—a fabulous job, a beautiful 15
year-old daughter, a hilarious BFF and a gorgeous house with a pool and Jacuzzi
in an exclusive Las Vegas neighborhood. What she doesn’t have is a husband,
because she kicked her lousy, cheating ex to the curb nine months ago. Since
then, Alli has paid her dues with seemingly endless self-improvement and
seemingly endless mourning. Now she’s ready to move on and try new
things.
Alli’s idea of “trying new things” is nothing like that devil-of-a-best-friend of hers. Somehow, Sara, the devil of a best friend, talks Alli into trying out a sex toy, sleeping with a younger man and letting a stranger in a lab jacket put hot wax on a place that should never, ever, ever see wax. And that’s only the beginning.
Alli never saw her life going quite like this. She also never thought she’d meet someone else who had the very real potential to change her life forever.
But she did.
Enter the new guy. He’s gorgeous, refined and mature. He’s also marriage material. But that poses a problem for Alli, who renounced the institution of marriage when she renounced her ex. What’s a girl to do?
They say that what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But what the heck happens when you can’t leave Vegas? Well, you spin the wheel, of course. You play the game and let the chips fall where they may.
Alli just hopes she can find them all.

Excerpt
“You
look marvelous!” Sara says when I round the corner into the bedroom.
“I
feel ridiculous.”
“Why? We are simply two wealthy women with trophy
boy toys out for a night on the town at one of Vegas’s most luxurious night
spots. Nothing to feel ridiculous
about.”
“I’m
dressed like Julia Roberts in Pretty
Woman, only without the body for it,” I say, indicating my short, tight
dress. “How did I let you talk me into
buying this?”
“Well,
I thought it might help things with Rick the Dick many moons ago, but this is
an even better use. Besides, you look
mouthwatering.”
Standing
up, she walks to me. She trails the
fingertips of one hand down my cheek.
“A
beautiful face,” she says, dragging her hands down to palm my boobs next. She gives them a squeeze. “Delicious rack,” she declares then grabs my
waist and spins me around. “And a
perfect ass,” she exclaims, slapping my butt.
“You are gorgeous and any man in his right mind would give his left nut
to lick you from head to toe and everywhere in between.”
“I
think you secretly have the hots for me,” I laugh. “Maybe I should be going out with you
instead.”
“Oh,
you flatter! If either of us swung that
way, we’d be perfect together. But,
alas, I’m a sausage lover, as are you.
No tacos for us.”
I
can’t help but laugh. “Have you always
been this way and I’m just now noticing?”
“Yes. You’ve been preoccupied for a few years.”
“I’m
beginning to really love this new you.
Even if she shocks me regularly and gets me into trouble more often than
not.”
“You
love it and you know it. I add
much-needed excitement to your life,” Sara claims, walking to the mirror to
touch up her lipstick.
“Did
I tell you I love that hair style on you, too?” I ask, referring to her dark red pixie
cut. She totally has the face to pull it
off.
“Keep
going like that and I’m yours.”
We
both laugh.
“Well,
I guess I’m ready.” I add under my
breath, “At least as ready as I’ll ever be.”
“Then
it’s time to go.”
My
stomach flutters in dread and anxiety and, yes, a little bit of
excitement. I take a deep breath and
smile at Sara. She loops her arms
through mine and grins.
“Welcome
to the first night of the rest of your life.”
We
make our way outside and down the walk to the curb, to the shiny black
limousine waiting there. The ride is
only twenty minutes or so, during which I drink champagne in the back of the
limo at a rate of speed that would make a sailor proud.
When
we glide to a stop at the club, I follow Sara out of the car.
And
the man waiting for me nearly takes my breath away.
He’s
taller than I imagined and much broader than I expected. His shoulders look a mile wide in his
perfectly-tailored tuxedo, making his waist look smaller than mine. His hair is dark brown and his eyes are the
same dark, sparkling blue as they are in his picture.
He’s
young, all right. But there is nothing
boyish about this guy. Not at all.
As
I step from the car, he extends his hand toward me. I slip my fingers into his and he
smiles. I’m pretty sure my knees go numb
and my uterus has a spasm. But it’s when
he speaks that I know it’s all over but the shouting. And the Hallelujah
choir.
“You’re
more beautiful than I could’ve imagined,” he purrs in a deep, velvety voice.
Yep, I’m gonna ride
him like a runaway bull tonight. No two ways about it.
The
thought makes me smile.
