Description from Publisher:
It doesn’t feel right. It doesn’t feel wrong. It just...feels. EJ Cunning, an art history major, dates musicians. Foster Blake, a chemical engineering major, can’t sing a tune. They’re not each other’s type. They’re coworkers. Then, one night leads to sex—sex between friends—which leads to an agreement. It all seems so simple—but nothing ever is. Many layers build a person’s facade. Look into the depths for what’s hidden within. It’s more than water. It’s a story—a living and breathing substance beyond the reflective surface.
My Rating:	Heat Rating:
This was sweet and sexy, and their chemistry (ha!) was solid. I really loved their slow build up as their friendship formed and deepened, alongside their passion for one another. The distinct difference in EJ's personality when she was herself with him and not with her family was done well, I think. Their banter was fun, and the amount of science and puns felt right. I also appreciated how the reason they started out as just friends, their exes, wasn't actually a big deal and there was actually something else that threw a wrench in things.
