Synopsis
What’s worse than losing everything? Try driving a phallic-shaped RV across the country with your vile womanizing coworker.
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. 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 month’s 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.

Review
Woah!I can't believe that this was a debut novel!It surely didn't feel like one!The writing was even better than certain bestselling books that I've read and the characters and the developments were amazing!
In this book, we have Callie Murphy, who has a painful past which has turned her into a slightly bitter person.She left Chicago with nothing but the clothes on her back and she is now working at her friend Skip's ad agency.One thing she doesn't like is the constant state of enjoyment that the employees are in.And she completely hates Walker Rhodes- whom she perceives as a manwhore as he is popular with the ladies.
Walker is done working for a job which he hates.He just wants to quit it and pursue his true passion-photography.The RV cross country tour that he is supposed to go on will give him the much needed break that he deserves.But the co worker who is supposed to accompany him on the trip is unable to do so because of morning sickness and Skip assigns Callie to the task.Neither Callie nor Walker are happy about this but they will have to adjust.
Walker has no clue why the prickly Callie hates him, but he will not let her spoil the trip.He is determines to get under her skin.Callie is so not interested in going on this trip with Walker.Even more irritating are his dirty jokes and blatant innuendos.But neither can stop the spark of attraction between them or the heated arguments that they engage in.Walker can see the pain that Callie tries to hide behind her anger and attitude.Before the trip ends will they manage to keep their hands off each other or will they end up killing each other? ;)
The main characters Walker and Callie were truly beautiful.They had their own sets of flaws.Though Callie's attitude might be a little irritating in the beginning, we can't help but emphatize with her.In addition to that, she is sarcastic, witty and intelligent.Walker was amazing with his dirty jokes and lack of filter.I loved the chapters from his POV.The author has managed to effectively develop beautiful characters with difficult pasts and presented them in such a manner that we can't help but fall in love with them.At the same time she has managed to weave in loads of humor and sexy scenes too!
I loved the wonderful cast of supporting characters.Everyone from Callie's twin sister to Walker's grandmother and Skip added flavor to the story.I can't wait to read Effie's story in the next book!
Nicole Archer s definitely an author to watch out for and you must give Road Tripped a try!Trust me, it'll have you laughing, swooning and crying in no time!
