Reviews with content warning for Toxic relationship - Only and Forever

Loved the book. Loved the series. Sad it’s over.

Second chance. Roommates. Forced proximity. Opposites attract.

I want to visit Bergman Books and spend the day!!!

It goes beyond words how much I much I loved this book. The Bergman series was such a beautiful journey with Viggo’s story being a nice end to it all.

To me this was a very feel good read. It had me rooting for Lula’s growth as she learnt to love herself and her loved ones. And also seeing Viggo in a such a different light compared to previous books. Both characters had a journey of their own and once they met at that cross road it was fireworks and lots of flowers.

If you know you know😏

Such a cathartic end to a such a beautiful book series.

I now want a corny romance shirt, a menagerie of animals and bookshop with homemade pastries. Truly while reading this I didn’t know if I wanted to be Viggo or be with him he’s just that book boyfriend *sighs dreamily*

Chloe Liese’s writing is so heartwarming; reading her books feels like being hugged while wrapped in a warm blanket by the fire. This final installment in the Bergman Brother’s series is no different. I loved seeing the evolution of Viggo and Tallulah (separately and together). They both offered up such beautiful displays of vulnerability while opening up to each other. They supported each other’s growth without making the other feel small or big lovable how they already were. Viggo and Talluluh were such sweet sensitive souls who were destined to love each other. Honorable mention to the big wonderful Bergman family and all their significant others. I just loved seeing all the couples back together again. I wish we had a few more scenes with the siblings. All good things must come to end and let me tell you this series is definitely a good thing. Everyone needs to pick up this series you will not regret it!

I am ~extremely emotional~ about this book, and that this wraps up the Bergman Brothers series 😭 I was seriously on the verge of tears or crying for most of the book!!! It was everything I could’ve hoped for. I have been waiting for sweet Viggo to have his moment, and I felt like Liese did such a wonderful job with his and Tallulah’s story.

There is something so beautiful about two beautiful who are both a mess, understand that they need help, receive that help individually, and challwnge and encourage each other to grow. Viggo and Tallulah love each other through not only their words but their actions as well. Viggo sees Tallulah. Tallulah sees Viggo. Viggo continues to show Tallulah that he cares for her by making her coffee every morning, baking her recipes and letting her know the carb count so she can bolus the correct amount of insulin, and he reminds her that she’s brave for being vulnerable. Tallulah continues to show Viggo she cares for him by reminding him that he isn’t too much and anyone who tells him otherwise doesn’t deserve to be in his company, helps him around the bookstore and reminding him that his dreams are happening and he just has to take the leap, and she keeps showing up even when she’s terrified. I love them so much 😭

I also love the Bergmans, and it is surreal that I will no longer be waiting on the next installment. They are such an incredibly loving and wonderful family, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to read these books. The scenes at the A-frame were so amazing, and I loved every second of it.

I highly recommend this series, friends. I’ll never recover from it, and I wouldn’t want to. 🫶🏻🪻
