Touchdown Romance: Why The Way We Score by Tia Louise is Your Next Must-Read!

Alright, Guys and girls, let’s talk about The Way We Score by Tia Louise. If you’re a sucker for small-town charm, second-chance love stories, and protective Daddy Bear vibes, then buckle up because this book’s got it all. Think swoon-worthy football star meets buttoned-up lawyer with a dash of accidental pregnancy to spice things up. Intrigued? Let me spill the chai.

Second Chances and Sizzling Chemistry: A Romance That Scores Big!

Why I’m Obsessed

First off, can we take a moment to appreciate Garrett Bradford? I mean, this man is the epitome of high school sweetheart-turned-dreamy protector. From his football glory days to being the guy who shows up at 3 a.m. with ginger ale for morning sickness—Garrett is IT. His evolution from teenage heartthrob to a man ready to give up everything for love and family? Has my heart!

And Olivia? Absolute fire-cracker. She’s strong, driven, and unapologetically herself. Life threw her some serious googlies, but she’s out here chasing dreams, rocking her lawyer life, and navigating unexpected motherhood with grace (and a little tadka of snark). The chemistry between these two is off the charts. Every stolen glance, every playful banter, every tender moment—GAHHHH, it’s everything.

What Hit Me Right in the Feels

The emotional depth of this book is unreal. Tia Louise doesn’t just skim the surface; she dives deep into themes like infertility, heartbreak, and rekindled love. The way Garrett supports Olivia? Literal marriage material. The way Olivia’s guarded heart slowly starts to trust again? I am crying. Plus, the found-family vibes in this book are like a warm hug from your granny. The Bradford clan is chaotic, hilarious, and fiercely loyal. You’ll want to be adopted by them, I swear.

What Could’ve Been Better

Okay, While I loved the journey, some moments felt a tad too filmy. Garrett’s transition from NFL star to small-town family man? Almost too smooth to be true. A little more drama or conflict might’ve added that extra spice. And while I’m a sucker for happy endings, the epilogue wrapped things up so neatly it felt like a Hallmark movie ending. I mean, can a girl get a tiny sprinkle of lingering tension?

Final Thoughts

The Way We Score isn’t just a book; it’s a vibe. It’s for anyone who believes in second chances, love that stands the test of time, and heroes who aren’t afraid to step up. Garrett and Olivia’s story is sweet, spicy, and everything in between. Tia Louise has scored a sixer with this one, and I’m already counting down the days until the next Bradford Boys installment.

So, if you’re ready to laugh, cry, and fall in love (again), grab this book and settle in. Trust me, you’ll be cheering for Garrett and Olivia to the final page.
