Enemies become lovers in this sizzling sports romance about taking a chance on love when life’s taught you it’s a losing game. Oliver Bergman is a beloved rising soccer star, all sunshine smiles and the heart of their team’s spirit. To make matters worse, he’s obscenely attractive. In short: he’s genetically designed to get under misanthropic, miserable Gavin’s aggravated skin. Ten years older than Oliver and a legendary player at the end of his career, Gavin Hayes is the team’s demanding captain. He’s also a giant–albeit gorgeous–grump who lives to rain on Oliver’s parade. Especially when Oliver and Gavin are named co-captains of the team. Sick of their hostility, Coach gives them an ultimatum: put an end to their enmity or say goodbye to being captains. Forced to finally to lower their guards, Gavin and Oliver realize that they also have chemistry off the field and it’s fueled by something much more powerful than competition—an explosive attraction.

I really like Chloe writing and I love the representation included in these books. This was however the book I enjoyed the least in the series.
Oliver is a sweetheart and I wished he fell for someone who swept him off his feet and immediately treated him more kindly. The story felt more like an insta love than Enemies-friends-lovers and I had difficulties feeling their connection besides the lust.
Regarding the writing, there were several words that were repeated to an extreme and I wish someone had addressed this in the revision process (e.g: Gingerly appear at least 4 times in the book, 3 of them in subsequent paragraphs and bigotry appear at least 2 times in similar circumstances. In both cases no synonym was used in between the use of those words).
“Everything for You” by Chloe Liese is a delightful read that kept me hooked from start to finish. As someone on a romance novel streak featuring gay characters, this book stands out as a fun and engaging read. The charm of this novel lies in its well-drawn characters that you can't help but root for. I identified with both characters; their struggles and triumphs resonated with me personally. Liese's storytelling is effective and heartfelt, making this book a must-read for anyone who enjoys well-crafted romance novels.
