I am excited to be reading this book. Full review to follow.

I'd like to thank the author, publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to review this ARC. All reviews are my own.

Going for Two by Ally Wiegand has physical therapist Lottie starting her dream job with her favorite professional football team, just as Nolan is starting his last season as a legendary quarterback trying to overcome an injury from a few seasons ago to end his career with a final Super Bowl win.

Nolan has no inclination do what Lottie suggests as the team PT, before he even meets her, and Lottie needs to get a life. No really, she needs to start living for something besides her job. She is given a bucket list of things she wants to do, but hasn't made time for by her sister Olivia and Nolan is given unwanted advice to just enjoy this last season by his teammates/best friends. After Lottie makes a suggestion that actually helps him, Nolan is receptive to her help at finally healing his injured knee as much as possible - and acknowledges that she knows as much about football as he does and probably more.

The two of them are reluctant to form a relationship, but they do and I have to admit to like spice in my books and this doesn't have any, but it's still enjoyable. Ms. Wiegand makes her characters likable, fallible, and easy to like - even when they aren't being their best selves. I really enjoyed this book and plan on getting the first in this series so that I know the full backstory and I look forward to Olivia and Derek's book.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in consideration of an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Another sweet sports romance from Ally!
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this early copy.

Lottie and Nolan are both career driven individuals with different demons to battle. Lottie never focused on her personal life and now is the PT for an NFL football team. She’s achieved greatness in her career, but has a list of things to check off on her personal life. She wants a traditional thanksgiving, a new years kiss, a date that she has a connection with and so much more. She’s tasked with getting NFL player, Nolan, to take better care of his injury. Nolan doesn’t want to like Lottie, but she helps him with much more than his game. He’s patient with her and helps her achieve the goals on her list. However, he has to decide if he’s ready to leave the game and give his all to a family or continue playing until he can’t. Lottie doesn’t want to be second fiddle to a career, so these two have a lot to figure out.

There’s no miscommunication, OW drama, or spice. If you want a little angst with your closed door romance, then pick this one up!

Love my sports romance! And I feel like Lottie realizing her self worth is something that every person can relate to. I do wish there was a conversation about what happened between Lottie and Nolan and why she changed her mind, but I will pretend that it happened.

Nolan is the most amazing golden retriever book boyfriend and he deserves happiness. I can't believe how much I was rooting for him, professionally and personally. I think he showed up for Lottie in so many ways and truly showed how much he cares.

I need to know what happens with Olivia and Derek! And yes, I did put Ally's first book on hold at the library already.

As a physical therapist and football fan I was so excited for this book, but at the end of the day it left me wanting more. The book itself had a nice start but the back and forth of the relationship between Nolan and Lottie left the story lacking any depth. In the last chapter Lottie mentions that Nolan “taught me what it meant to live life without worrying if I’d done enough” and truly I don’t think the author did enough to develop the characters in a way that made that sentiment ring true.

Thank you so much to Netgalley and 8th press for the approval of this arc. It is my absolute joy and happiness to be able to enjoy reading and listening to Lottie & Nolan’s story!

I loved this book and I really need this physical copy now! All netgalley arcs that were approved I will be buying the physical copy to definitely highlight my favorite parts.
All I can say is I’m truly grateful for this arc approval. I really wanted it and it made me so happy to see this approved. I’ve requested many and unfortunately there is more denied request than approved request.

This arc really made me laugh. I loved the whole book from the beginning.

Thank you Netgalley again for approving this arc and I will want to buy this book simply because I already had the chance to see if I’ll like this book before I buy.

Dr Lottie Thompson has finally achieved her dream job as the newest physical therapist for the Chicago Bobcats NFL team. Champion quarterback Nolan Hill is struggling after an injury two years ago. This is his last season to achieve a third superbowl ring, but his fears have made him a grumpy shadow of his normally effusive self. Sparks fly in more ways than one when Nolan discovers Lottie is determined to help him.

I adored Ally Wiegand’s debut ‘First Base’ and thought it was one of the stronger sports romances out there. I can safely say that ‘Going for Two’ cements my assertions as Wiegand writes an emotional truth about Lottie and Nolan that made me understand why they are the way they are and how they learn to heal. Lottie and Nolan were so adorable and I loved learning all their hidden layers and hurdles which stop them from going after their happiness. I appreciated watching their growth individually and as a couple with a future.

There's an insta attraction, developed slowly as they both grapple with their personal issues. I really appreciated that the focus here was on their developing relationship instead of heading to early declarations of love and spice scene without seeing the genuine connection. Instead, we see many smaller moments where Lottie and Nolan step up for each other. I also appreciated the sage advice dished out to both by their friends.

I can’t wait for the third book, which I’m assuming will feature Olivia and Derek.

Thanks to 8th Note Press and NetGalley for the ARC.

I LOVED this one way more than the second. The whole opposites attract workplace romance sucked me right in and I’m such a sucker for those. Lottie and Nolan had great chemistry, banter and just overall loved their relationship

Look out. Here comes my new favourite sport romance….maybe EVER!!!

I loved Lottie! I wanted to be her and she as a character will stay with me for a very long time. I loved her feistiness, determination, love for sport and vulnerability that she showed. And Nolan!!! Our teddy bear of a quarterback! He had a lot of personal growth that you can’t help but root for! While that is said; he showed the hard side of being a professional athlete; the emotional turmoil and mental health aspects that come into play.

I loved all the side characters, how in detail the football games were and the low level of spice was shocking but much appreciated! I didn’t read the first one (but will now) and never felt like I missed anything! I highly recommend

This book was fun! It was my first time reading from this author and it won't be the last. It is the perfect time of year for this story as well with football just starting and fall in the air. If you love football, you will truly enjoy this story but even if football isn't your favorite you will like it too. All characters were great. From Lottie's sister all the way to Nolan's friends and family. It was heartwarming, not overly steamy as everything was pretty closed doors. You get to see each main character change throughout the season into a better person than when the book started.

This was a strong sequel in the Chicago Heartbreakers series, it had that element that I was looking for based on the first book. The characters had that feel that I wanted in a sports romance novel. It had that element that I enjoyed from First Base and still had that writing style that I enjoyed. Ally Wiegand created another wonderfully done romance novel and I'll be back for more.
