Amateur Alice Carroll has sable hair, slate blue eyes and small natural breasts. “I was born in Arizona, but I grew up in Bangor, Maine,” she says, by way of introduction. “A small town levels your head – people care about you and your well-being. You appreciate what you have.” It’s her sense of appreciation that sets Alice apart – she loves art and poetry, she bakes from scratch, and from time to time she acts in community theater. “For me, a ‘girl’s night’ is a movie and a glass of wine on the couch,” she says. “And I love craft beer and tastings at the brewery.” Alice is an experienced model, but this is her first time posing nude, and she’s taking the opportunity with a characteristic sense of pragmatism. “I’ve done a lot of commercial work, as well as a bit of pin-up modeling,” she says, “but Playboy is a whole new thing. I’m comfortable with my body – so why not get paid for it?” Alice is flattered by all the attention, but she’s not well-suited to a suitor. “I’m single, and I like it that way,” she says. “You have to love yourself before you can love somebody else. I like flowers, but I’m a real smartass, and it’s hard for guys to keep up with that.”
