windy city series reading order — liz tomforde (all 5 books)
the windy city series by liz tomforde is the most recommended sports romance series on booktok right now — here's the complete reading order with spice levels so you know exactly where to start.
may i argue that the windy city series is one of the best interconnected standalone sports romance series to exist?
each book follows a different couple, but the characters stay woven together in a way that makes the world feel lived in and hard to leave.
what makes these books great
the pacing, the plot, and the romance all deliver. every couple feels distinct, the tension actually builds, and the emotional payoff... well it pays off.
what you'll find in this list
below is the series in reading order with spice included (because we all know that matters). if you prefer to read interconnected standalones in order and book one isn’t your favorite, keep going.
my take
The Right Move and Caught Up are personal favorites and always worth the recommendation.
the books
if you're a read-in-order person, start at the beginning. if not, these are interconnected standalones and you can realistically start anywhere.
