Almost Over It by Kylie Gilmore
This is the first in a series, Clover Park Charmers, and a light romance. William (Will) Levi is an orthodontist with a lot of baggage. When he was in college, he drove impaired and put his older brother Charlie in a coma. His brother recovered, but was never the same mentally and walks with a limp. His brother was going to take over their father's orthodontics practice, but dropped out of college and lives a less structured life. Will's former girlfriend fell for Charlie when they went to visit them, and dumped Will. Now, managing the practice with a new orthodontist, Tony, on staff, he takes his job seriously. His retired father, Brian, had him take over the musical portion at the community summer theatre while Brian and his wife went on a cruise. Also involved with the theatre was ex-Broadway dancer Jasmine Davis, and they clashed a lot. Now Jasmine has her dance studio next door to his office and lives in the apartment over it.
They clash over noise, parking, and other topics, but the chemistry is there. Will finds himself thinking about how both Jasmine and him have perfect bites, and how they would align when they kiss, which seemed a very dentist thing to think about. He also has a feral rescue cat, Sweetie, who torments him, but who he also can't return to the shelter as he knows she'd be put down.
We see into both their family dynamics, and there are some very spicy scenes. An entertaining read.
