**Revised and Expanded 2021 Edition**

Prepare for an emotional rollercoaster brimming with laughter, tears, and slow-burn sexiness in this new adult romance that tackles the vulnerability of love with humor and heart.

Ryder

Ever since she sat next to me in class and gave me death eyes, Willa Sutter's been on my shit list. Why she hates me, I don't know. What I do know is that Willa is the kind of chaos I don't need in my tidy life. She's the next generation of women's soccer. Wild hair, wilder eyes. Bee-stung lips that should be illegal. And a temper that makes the devil seem friendly.

She's a thorn in my side, a menacing, cantankerous, pain-in-the-ass who's turned our Business Mathematics course into a goddamn gladiator arena. I'll leave this war zone unscathed, coming out on top...And if I have my way with that crazy-haired, ball-busting hellion, that will be in more than one sense of the word.

Willa

Rather than give me the lecture notes I missed like every other instructor I've had, my asshole professor tells me to get them from the silent, surly flannel-wearing mountain man sitting next to me in class. Well, I tried. And what did I get from Ryder Bergman? Ignored. What a complete lumbersexual neanderthal. Mangy beard and mangier hair. Frayed ball cap that hides his eyes. And a stubborn refusal to acknowledge my existence.

I've battled men before, but with Ryder, it's war. I'll get those notes and crack that Sasquatch nut if it's the last thing I do, then I'll have him at my mercy. Victory will have never tasted so sweet.

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. This standalone is the first in a series of novels about a Swedish-American family of five brothers, two sisters, and their wild adventures as they each find happily ever after.

The Story:
Who told this book it was allowed to emotionally wreck me?!?! Am I fully planning to go back for more? Absolutely. This was sooo good.
I’m not going to attempt to summarize because it will just be rambling nonsense. ( )

This book was first published on March 27, 2020, and this is a reread for me. Let me just say, I loved it even more this time around! Also, really liking the new cover. This is a great introduction to the whole wonderful Bergman family. I thought the representation of Ryder’s disability and his struggle with hearing aids to be spot on. 4⭐️from me.

Thank you to Berkley Publishing Group, Berkley, Shelf Awareness and NetGalley for this complimentary ebook. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. ( )

Oh.

I read the **Revised and Expanded 2021 Edition**.

It all makes sense now. I wish I had read the less expanded edition.

I'm sorry, the above comment makes it seem like I am about to launch in to a really negative review. I am not. There were good elements in this novel. I just wish there was less to review because, phew, that went on and on and on. At the start I didn't know if I could push through because there was a really immature enemies vibe that was starting to get on my nerve, so when hair pulling happened in a lecture I about quit right then. Yes. Actual hair pulling from 20 something year olds. That did settle down (a bit). I really enjoyed the deaf representation in the book and Ryder's experiences felt quite genuine whilst reading it, however, I've since read that Chloe has apologised for some misrepresentation in terms of experiences for deaf people so you should read some ownvoice Reader's reviews. I love novels with exceptional sportswomen so I found that aspect enjoyable. The other thing that was wonderful was the family dynamics. The Bergman's are the type of fun family that I would enjoy reading about and for that reason I will give book two a go. However, if I hear anyone called 'Lumberjack' and/or 'Sunshine' as a cutesy term of endearment again, I will straight up scream.
