Get A Life, Chloe Brown

Sweet and oh so sexy! This one started out rough for me but 4 chapters in, I was hooked.

While Red was a little unrealistic…let’s be real a partner that intuits a woman’s needs at EVERY single turn? Is that real? Have I become cynical in my old age?

Hold for my freak out, and lets get a synopsis.

GoodReads Synopsis:
Chloe Brown is a chronically ill computer geek with a goal, a plan, and a list. After almost—but not quite—dying, she’s come up with seven directives to help her “Get a Life”, and she’s already completed the first: finally moving out of her glamorous family’s mansion. The next items?

Enjoy a drunken night out.
Ride a motorcycle.
Go camping.
Have meaningless but thoroughly enjoyable sex.
Travel the world with nothing but hand luggage.
And... do something bad.
But it’s not easy being bad, even when you’ve written step-by-step guidelines on how to do it correctly. What Chloe needs is a teacher, and she knows just the man for the job.

Redford ‘Red’ Morgan is a handyman with tattoos, a motorcycle, and more sex appeal than ten-thousand Hollywood heartthrobs. He’s also an artist who paints at night and hides his work in the light of day, which Chloe knows because she spies on him occasionally. Just the teeniest, tiniest bit.

But when she enlists Red in her mission to rebel, she learns things about him that no spy session could teach her. Like why he clearly resents Chloe’s wealthy background. And why he never shows his art to anyone. And what really lies beneath his rough exterior…

Ok now that, that is out of the way a huge thank you to Net Galley for this one as I probably wouldn’t have read it on my own.

I do so love a curvy normal gal, out living her best life and finding love. Romance is for all of us y’all!

Plus when do we ever get stories that so well chronicle living with the chronic pain of fibromyalgia? I have never felt as though I so thoroughly understood it, as I did reading this book. Also I wasn’t aware that some consider it a disability?

I learned a lot and it strongly reinforced that being sick or disabled does not mean losing your sexy.

This was a fun, hot romance and is perfect for Summer! ⭐️⭐️⭐️.5 out of 6 stars for the slow start but fantastic finish.
