Simple ? : Displaying a relationship field

I must be doing something wrong as this seems like it should be pretty straightforward.

I have 2 CPTs, ‘Books’ and ‘Authors’.

On the Books CPT one of the ACF fields is a relationship field “authors” where you associate an author with a book – that works fine in the admin section

On the books CPT template I have some ACF fields and are displaying wonderfully, with the exception of the relationship field. I just want to display the title of the Author CPT that is related to it.

That’s really it.

Thanks

$authors = get_field('author_relationship_field');
if ($authors) {
  foreach ($authors as $post) {
    setup_post_data($post);
    the_title();
  }
  wp_reset_postdata();
}

Thanks
It needs to be within a post loop, displaying alongside the Books title, description, etc
