In a nutshell: Only When It’s Us is a frenemies-to-lovers, college sports romance about a women’s soccer star and her surly lumberjack lookalike classmate, complete with a matchmaking professor, juvenile pranks, and a smoking slow burn.
What I thought: The book that introduced me to Chloe Liese, and forever grateful it did! A breath of fresh air after going on a reading binge through contemporary romances. This story is unique and I wasn’t prepared for the emotional journey it took me on. I loved Willa and Ryder so much, their growth from enemies to friends to lovers was shown to us in such a heartfelt and hilarious way and the banter and snark had me laughing out loud (my husband actually asked what one earth was so funny multiple times). First book in the Bergman Brothers series, I can’t bloody wait for more!
