Praise for Babydoll

"…a total page-turner that flies by in no time. The authors have fun with the mystery genre and their creation of Saylor is a blast…enough humor to put a smile on any seasoned crime fan’s face…BABYDOLL more than delivers as a solid mystery, with plenty more to the plot than murdered models, as something even darker shakes things up."

"I loved Saylor and the book! Saylor is a feisty fun character…the romance is hot, the writing is great and the story is a lot of fun."

— Chick with Books

"I enjoyed Saylor as the main character…she's smart, she's funny…I also liked some of the secondary characters, particularly the women…a mystery with interesting characters and some really entertaining secondary plot lines. It walked an unusual line between gritty realism and larger than life wackiness."

— I’m Booking It

"This story is sexy, action-packed, and - thanks to the well-drawn and very entertaining characters - pretty funny too. The plot's fashion industry element adds an air of whimsy to the suspense of it all…I love a good crime novel and I find that often my favorites are the ones where the lead character bumbles around a bit. As a sex therapist, Saylor is anything but an experienced sleuth."

— The Eclectic Book Lover

"I really enjoyed this book. In the same vein as Evanovich's Stephanie Plum, Saylor Oz is brassy, sassy and funny."

— Stephanie’s confessions of a Book-a-holic

"I am in love with Saylor and can’t get enough of her. There are so many funny moments in this book that I couldn’t possibly pick just one…This husband/wife team of Allyson Roy is dynamic. They are a force to be reckoned with."

— Cheryl's Book Nook

"Babydoll was total blast…Saylor is quite a character…recommended read for anyone who loves mysteries with a romantic twist."

— FIVE STAR RATING at Reading With Monie

Roy has penned another winner…even better than the first…dialogue and scenarios that play out in the written word as if we're watching a movie help make this one of those books that seem to fly by…full of suspense and mystery with comedic overtones that make it a lot of fun…The personalities of Saylor and Benita are priceless mixes of girly girls who are totally feminine with that down to earth nature that endears us to them.

– FIVE STAR RATING at The Romance Studio

"Babydoll is a fast, fun read with great characters and action that never stops. Allyson Roy is a future star."

New York Times bestselling author Karen Robards

"…a riveting story that will keep you on edge…Allyson Roy brilliantly balances out the grittier side with humor, witty dialogue and a tad of steamy goodness that will appeal to all…Be prepared to be taken in as Saylor gets mixed into a tangled web of murder, as well as a conclusion you won’t see coming."

Romance Junkies

"…an excellent read…The characters are stellar. Each has their own faults, but you can't help but love them. And if that's not enough, the storyline is very suspenseful. Just when you think you've solved the case, Roy throws in something from left field and forces you to reconsider…Several times I found myself laughing at loud. The emotions the reader experiences range from sorrow and hatred to tears-rolling-down-your face humor."

Praise for Aphrodisiac

"This sexy, exciting race against time is a gripping, fun read that is hard to put down. Just when things get a bit too tough, we, along with Saylor, are treated to a little romantic reprieve.There is just enough going on to keep the story interesting, but it never gets close to being smutty or too heavy-handed.

Obviously comparable to Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum novels, APHRODISIAC (the first in a sure-to-be successful series) has a bit more substance and more going for it. . . . Saylor's and Benita's lives are refreshingly like the lives of a lot of people . . . That depth makes the book a great read. The plot was fun and just believable enough while being fresh."

Five Star Rating on Epinions.com

…witty, suspenseful, unique…Aphrodisiac puts Allyson Roy on my must-read list. It is a crafty, fun ride with a savvy, sexy protagonist at the wheel…She is completely unique among mystery protagonists on the market today. If Saylor and Benita were real, I’d have to friend them on every social network, and go out for beers with them…well-crafted mystery…fantastic job of innuendo and red herrings throughout
