About this listen

Matthew Walsh doesn't have feelings, and he likes it that way. Between breathing life into his family's third generation Boston architecture shop, keeping the peace with his five siblings, and competing in triathlons, he doesn't have much time for feelings. At least that's the case until Lauren Halsted tumbles into his life.

The feisty, beautiful blonde isn't what he wants and definitely not what he expects. She's so much more. Lauren Halsted doesn't have time and that's turning into a real problem for her. Losing focus isn't something Lauren does with any regularity. She has checklists and to-do lists and action plans a mile long. She doesn't have distractions and she doesn't let anyone tell her what to do.

When she trips down a flight of stairs and into her architect's arms, she gives into distraction for one night. They weren't looking but they found each other anyway.

Sorry, I didn’t even make it past chapter 2. His first thought when he saw her (a beautiful, successful and intellegent woman), was he that he wanted to... talk to her? Ha! Kiss her? Nope. Have sex with her? Nuh-uh. He fantasised about spanking her.
Just... NO. I am not a prude, but if a guy’s basic and primary response is to hurt/dominate a woman, that is NOT sexy or romantic.

Nope - I hated him, instantly

This had been giving off goofy grins and laugh out load moments as I listened.
Loved how it gets straight into the romance rather than this long winded story before the characters hook up.
Certainly steamy but not X rated.
Both narrator’s do a good job however the female male voice needs work.
Overall 4.5/5
Certainly a great listen and all the more while it’s on the free list

Smart, funny and steamy love story. I love 2 narrators in a love story and know the different points of view of each main character.

Smart, funny and steamy love story. Loved it!

I spent this whole book trying to figure out if I like it or not, and I’m still unsure. Here are my thoughts: as strange and borderline uncomfortable as Matthew’s inner monologue is, he’s the one I was really rooting for in this story. Lauren was super frustrating and combative for no discernible reason. If anyone has a reason to be tentative, surely it’s the character with serious childhood trauma. I don’t really see how being an ambitious, type-A woman from a super privileged background sets her up to be so emotionally unavailable. Also, the Erin subplot took up a lot of time considering it was never fully developed. “Not fully developed” is perhaps the best way to describe this book. Also, the female narrator’s male character voice makes him sound super robotic and doesn’t at all match the character that the male narrator crafted. Anyway, it’s a spicy romance read if you need one to fill some time.

Is it actually good? I don’t know.

Feel fast like their relationship and first date but really not much story around them other their situationship.

Wasn’t bad

Enjoyable read, so much raunchier than the cover suggest . Nice easy listen during chores and house work.

Don’t judge a book by its cover

I adored Underneath it All, but occasionally Lauren really drove me nuts with the whole denial over what she felt for Matthew, and the MUST stick to her plan thought process. Fabulous audiobook to listen to though, the narrators really nailed it.

great audio to listen to

Beautiful narration of well written love story. Juicy bits in there. I'll try to follow the stories of my favourite siblings of the lot which will be hard as they're all pretty cool

Very enjoyable
