*ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY TOP 10 ROMANCE NOVEL OF 2020*

Get ready for an emotional ride filled with laughter, longing, and a sweet slow-burn in this sports romance about love's power not in spite of difference, but because of it.

Ren

The moment I met her, I knew Frankie Zeferino was someone worth waiting for. Deadpan delivery, secret heart of gold, and a rare one-dimpled smile that makes my knees weak, Frankie has been forbidden since the day she and I became coworkers, meaning waiting has been the name of my gameâ??besides, hockey, that is.

I'm a player on the team, she's on staff, and as long as we work together, dating is off-limits. But patience has always been my virtue. Frankie won't be here foreverâ??she's headed for bigger, better things. I just hope that when she leaves the team and I tell her how I feel, she won't want to leave me behind, too.

Frankie

I've had a problem at work since the day Ren Bergman joined the team: a six foot three hunk of happy with a sunshine smile. I'm a grumbly grump and his ridiculously good nature drives me nuts, but even I can't entirely ignore that hot tamale of a ginger with icy eyes, the perfect playoff beard, and a body built for sin that he's annoyingly modest about.

Before I got wise, I would have tripped over myself to get a guy like Ren, but with my diagnosis, I've learned what I am to most people in my lifeâ??a problem, not a person. Now, opening my heart to anyone, no matter how sweet, is the last thing I'm prepared to do.

Always Only You is an opposites-attract, forbidden love sports romance about a nerdy, late-blooming hockey star, and his tough cookie coworker who keeps both her soft side and her autism diagnosis to herself. Complete with a meddling secretary, tantric yoga torture, and a scorching slow burn, this standalone is the second in a series of novels about a Swedish-American family of five brothers, two sisters, and their wild adventures as they each find happily ever af… (meer)

Psst - I'm going to share a secret: I tell everyone I hate sports. But. I, uh . . . I love hockey and essentially any hockey-related romance fiction. ( )

Ren has always been friends with Frankie, ever since he became a member of the Los Angeles Kings hockey team and she started as their In-Game Social Media Coordinator. He's always wanted more with her, but with the team's no dating policy, he has been biding his time until the employment situation for one of them changes. When her home is ransacked and she needs a place to stay, Frankie takes Ren up on his offer to stay with him but living together changes everything.

Always Only You centers around the romance between Ren and Frankie, focusing particularly on the problems associated with both autism and rheumatoid arthritis. Both conditions have caused relationship issues for Frankie in the past, and this becomes the major conflict in the story. Without this conflict, there isn't much to make the story compelling. In addition, both characters are very well developed and likable, while the conventional roles of sunshine/grump are reversed. Overall, Always Only You is a good romance but doesn't quite live up to all the hype surrounding this book. ( )

Slowly making my way through this series and it's amazing. ( )

It was cute. It was mushy. It was alright.

The author was able to touch base on disability, autism and RA, and the emotional struggles that come along with it. It was real and raw, and constant throughout the read. More so, what I enjoyed most was how Ren handled, approached, and aided Frankie’s diagnosis. He was never judgmental nor resentful towards her disabilities. It only proved that he is everyone’s ideal man and the perfect book boyfriend.

Despite the characteristics that I heavily loved, everything else was mediocre at best. The start was great, I was really intrigued by the storyline and characters but the middle drag, drag, draaaaaaaag! It seemed like a lot of nothing was happening leading me to become less invested in what was going on and becoming bored with how Ren and Frankie’s story was going to end.

Altogether, ‘Always Only You’ was a cute, sexy at times, uneventful read that didn’t leave a lasting impression despite the topics discussed and the realistic characters readers are able to relate to.

idk what's going on?
I loved 1st book in the series and was saving this one for a gloomy day, but I'm dnfing it.
it's too awkward and horny? idk how to explain it, but I get second hand embarrassment from reading it.
I like how this book is heavy on events and how they help build characters, but I didn't felt the chemistry and that's the main thing. ( )
