Only and Forever by Chloe Liese

 💖💖💖💖💖/5


I enjoyed Viggo and Tallulah's love story in Only and Forever by Chloe Liese, book seven in the Bergman Brothers series; a wonderful ending to the Bergman brothers series. Viggo Bergman is the family romantic. He loves anything related to historical romance and is the first one to support his siblings' relationships. Viggo has yet to find his one true love, hoping that one day soon his happily ever after will show up and change his world. Unexpectedly, his love turned up to be his grumpy ex-classmate, Tallulah. Tallulah is the exact opposite of Viggo, which is what made their journey much more special. While Viggo is the romantic, Tallulah is a thriller author, whose experiences with love included growing up with toxic parents who constantly got married and divorced just to repeat the cycle and her own relationships that have gone south when she wasn't able to commit beyond a physical relationship. These two reconnect at a time where they need support, Viggo with his bookstore endeavor, and Tallulah with writing her second book that encompasses a romantic element.

So what happens next? After being kicked out of her last place, it makes perfect sense that Tallulah become roommates with Viggo, leading to their lives being intertwined in ways that lead to love before either of them can say the words. I loved watching Tallulah go through therapy and face her fears associated with love. She wanted a relationship with Viggo, but she wanted to give him all the love he deserved. Likewise, Viggo had to let go of what he thought was the ideal relationship, and accept that life isn't a storybook. Love takes time, effort and two imperfect people willing to do the work to make their relationship grow, and that's exactly what these two did.

Catching up with the Bergman family and seeing everyone with their families, while knowing that this is the last book, was a bit melancholy. I have enjoyed seeing each of the siblings find love, while being unconditionally supported by their family, helping them flourish. Viggo and Tallulah’s story was a great way to end the series.
