Chloe Liese’s latest book Ever After Always is a wonderful combination of heartbreak and hilarity that will have readers devouring this book in one sitting. The Bergman Brothers Series follows the life of the seven children in the Bergman family as they navigate life, loss, and love. Ever After Always is a second chance romance for Aiden and Freya, who have been married for (almost) a decade. Readers were introduced to Aiden in Only When It’s Us where he (slightly) abused his power as an economics professor to play matchmaker for Willa and Ryder. While Aiden is great at spotting sparks flying between others, he failed to notice the embers slowly cooling between him and his wife. Is their love for each other and support from their family enough? Or will all of the small fractures and lies topple their marriage for good?
As always, Liese tackles difficult topics with sensitivity and grace making for a beautiful love story. The reader gets unique insight into a failing marriage and gets to watch them fall in love again. This book will for sure take you on a rollercoaster of emotions; one minute I was laughing at the Bergman brothers crazy antics and the next I was tearing up as I learned more about Freya and Aiden’s pasts and insecurities. What to expect: pranks gone awry, strong female protagonists, and beautiful music. If you have not read any of Liese’s novels yet, I would recommend starting with Only When It’s Us (another 5 star read for me!), but you can read Ever After Always as a standalone if you want. This book is perfect for fans of the Bromance Book Club and You Deserve Each Other.

This is part of quite a big series of wholesome romcom yet also heart wrenching and exciting books that involve a family of five brothers and two sisters.


I truly adore this and it is now on my list of comfort reads. Thank you.
