Everything for You
by Chloe Liese
An avid fan of the Bergman Brothers series/Chloe Liese, I've been looking forward to "Everything for You" for months. The youngest "man cub's" story was bound to be entertaining.
It was fun, to a degree, but, quite honestly, it read too much like Ted Lasso fan fiction. Gavin is a much less charming Roy Kent. Oliver's anxiety is a funhouse mirror version of Ted's- but it makes less sense.
There are dozens of nitpicky character behavior with the rest of the Bergman family and their significant other's that had me wrinkling my nose and saying, "Mmm...no. That doesn't track." Those little incongruities added up to one frustrated reader.
There were highlights- of course there were! The away game hotel scene? Loved it. Oliver's charm? On point. This quote that I felt deep in my soul: "Can we just let Leslie Odom Jr. sing the shit out of this song and sound like sex in a voice box?" YAAASSSSSS!!! There were glimmers and glints of the Chloe Liese I've come to adore, but this is the first time one of her books fell flat.
