Recommended Reading Path

While each book in the Bergman Brothers series is a standalone romance focusing on a different sibling, we highly recommend reading them in publication order. The family members frequently appear in each other's books, and reading them in order allows you to watch the siblings' lives evolve naturally without spoiling the outcomes of earlier romances.

Chronological Order vs. Publication Order

The chronological timeline of the Bergman Brothers series aligns perfectly with its publication order. There are no prequel novellas or timeline jumps that disrupt the sequence. Readers seeking the smoothest experience should simply follow the order of release from the first book to the final sibling's story.

The Bergman Universe and Spin-offs

Although Chloe Liese has written other popular contemporary romance series, such as the Shakespeare-inspired trilogy The Wilmot Sisters (starting with Two Wrongs Make a Right), these series are set in separate universes. The Bergman Brothers series is a self-contained, completed seven-book saga with no direct spin-off books or companion novellas.

Frequently Asked

QWhere should I start reading the Bergman Brothers series?

You should start with the first book, Only When It's Us. Although each book features a standalone romance, reading in order prevents minor spoilers regarding previous couples' lives.

QAre the Bergman Brothers books standalones?

Yes, each novel follows a different sibling's love story and has a complete resolution. However, the tight-knit family dynamics carry over across the entire series.

QWho is the youngest sibling in the Bergman family?

Ziggy Bergman is the youngest of the seven siblings. Her romance with Sebastian Gauthier is detailed in the sixth book, If Only You.

QAre the Wilmot Sisters and Bergman Brothers series connected?

No. While both series are written by Chloe Liese and feature similar themes of emotional depth and neurodiversity, they are independent works set in different worlds.

QWhy did the Bergman Brothers book covers change?
