Title: Under My Skin (Skin Deep #2)
Author: J.M. Stone
Genre: Erotica
Synopsis:
One little piercing. That’s all Allie wanted when she dragged her best friend into Skin Deep. She never imagined that it would result in a busted lip and an engagement ring for Emma, or that it would come with a double side of six-foot plus, tattooed, sexy-as-sin, H.O.T. maleness for her! Now she’s torn because Brandon and Jackson have both let it be known that they want her. And both are used to getting what they want. But what about what Allie wants?
Brandon is hot for Allie. So is Jackson. Neither of them are willing to step aside for the other and they’re tired of Allie running. So they hatch a plan…
Add in wedding bells, a dog named Doug, and you’ve got a recipe for a good time. Or a disaster.

Under My Skin carries on right where Skin Deep finishes, so it is best to read it before starting on Under My Skin.
Allie has been holding back from both Jackson and Brandon, as she has feeling for both.
Two sexy hot guys after her - yes please!! When the boys come up with an agreement, she takes it up and that's when things really start to heat up.
So, really…what the hell was my problem? It wasn’t as if I was unattracted to them; in fact, it was the polar opposite. Maybe I was too attracted to them.
Brandon broke into my thoughts. “Allie?”
I gave them both a small smile. “I honestly have no answer for you. I don’t know why I’ve been fight-”
My words were cut off by a harsh groan. I don’t know who’s mouth it came from, but what I do know is that I was suddenly crushed to Jackson’s chest and his lips were on mine, nipping at my bottom lip until I gave in and opened for him. He thrust his tongue between my lips, kissing me deeply, thoroughly. After a minute, he pulled back, kissed me gently one last time before I found myself being turned and then Brandon was there, wrapping me up in his arms. His lips caressed mine tenderly, his tongue dancing softly over mine, asking for more rather than taking like Jackson had. The difference in their kisses was like night and day, although I knew Brandon could be just as intense as Jacks. But now, in this moment, the contrast just served to make my pulse pound, to make the ache building between my thighs spread through my body until I wanted nothing more than to be lost between the two of them.
But much to my disappointment, the boys aren't bi so there is no m/m action going on (this is just me though, I am really loving all the man on man action there is in my books these days!!).
I was hoping that this was going to be a full on, everyone happy threesome relationship here, but it wasn't as much that as I wanted. Then again, how often would that kind of relationship really work out without some tension or someone feeling like a 3rd wheel. I could feel that the relationship was not going to end like I wanted it too, but I feel that it was the only way it could viably be.
I felt for Allie - she has true, deep feelings for both of these kind, sweet men and it must have been hard to keep her sanity!
I love that Luke and Emma are a big part of this story too. There are wedding plans, hen's and bucks nights (all I can say is "go the mums!!), hiii-laaaarious family get togethers! I just love how close Allie's family is, how close Emma's family is, and how close they are all to each other. And then we have a grandma with a few too many stories that you wouldn't want to hear from your nan ~~ think of a happy place, think of a happy place~~.
I am still not sure how I feel about Jacks' sister coming to the party. Not that she isn't likable, but things changed when she arrived and I still can't put my finger on what I don't like. Maybe it is how things changed so much when she arrived? Or maybe it was Allie's reaction to her - hello, double standard anyone?!?!?
And of course, what would a Skin Deep book be without the best non-human character in a book - Doug!!! Able to clear a room with a single fart!
I really do enjoy the Skin Deep series, and am looking forward to more. There is a couple of characters I hope we learn more about - please please please let book 3 be about Calland. He really needs a good woman to bring him to his knees!!
