Underneath It All by Kate Canterbary
3.0

Lauren Halstead is a teacher on her way to running her own school in the heart of Boston. She is completely focused on her goals and has no time for anything not related to her school, especially men.

Matthew Walsh is a huge distraction, even if his architectural firm finally found her a building she can afford to rehab.

Their intense and immediate attraction sees them banging their way around Boston, but Lauren is intent on keeping things casual and keeping Matthew at arms length, which to his dismay he realizes isn't enough. Now he just needs to convince her that giving him some room in her life doesn't mean she also can't realize her dreams.

Super hot sex scenes and dirty talk, with a few problematic things I found a little distracting. Matthew exhibits a bit too much intrusive, possessive behavior especially for someone who can't seem to vocalize his real feelings. JUST SAY WHAT YOU WANT MATTHEW.

That said, I loved the two narrators and found the Walsh clan of siblings very intriguing. I'll definitely be continuing on in the series.
