About this listen

Revised and Expanded 2021 Edition

Prepare for an emotional roller coaster 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.

The ending was pretty meh

Enjoyable to listen to, really liked the story line but thought the end was very average and could have finished way before it did.

Sweetness

I enjoyed this more than I thought. I also cried which is rare for me. Looking forward to the other siblings books!

would have been better edited down

I enjoyed the premise to this, and general storyline and character, but it frequently dragged for me because of extended internal retrospection/dialogue of main characters. wasn't necessary for understanding them or storyline at that length. Some of the misunderstandings that drove story also dragged out.

Fine

Should come with some trigger warnings, definitely not a rom com. Loved the disability representation but wished she had the guts to stick with it instead of an easy “happy ending” (aka making it easy and convenient for able bodied people). Overall it was fine, though I couldn’t finish the last two hours because it just dragged on too much

Only When It’s Us

This is my first read by Chloe Liese and I really enjoyed it, it was a beautiful story that hit right in the feels but also has moments that made me laugh. I’ll definitely be reading the rest of her books!

It was ok

I enjoyed it to start, it was a bit different with Ryder being hard of hearing. But then it just got so cliche. Willa and her trust issues were so annoying and over done.
