In how Chloe and Red fight and hurt one another at times, it at times felt too real but so incredibly lovely in how things work out.īoth Chloe and Red are such good people. While there are some rom-com funny moments, the book feels really real. This is the story of two people who have been hurt by others having to learn to communicate with one another. OPINION: This book is simply charming, and yet it is not fluffy but rather has a substantial adult storyline. When Chloe asks him to help her complete her “get a life” list, Red cannot resist her. Red, at first, thinks that Chloe is stuck up, but as he gets to know her, Red is attracted to this woman who is brave in ways that he didn’t expect. Chloe takes on her goal of doing something bad by spying on her building’s superintendent Red Morgan, who paints at night half-undressed.

THE STORY: Chloe Brown takes decides to “get a life” by taking on a number of initiatives, including moving out of her family’s mansion, enjoying a drunken night out, riding a motorcycle, going camping, having meaningless but thoroughly enjoyable sex, traveling the world with nothing but hand luggage, and… doing something bad. I have not read Talia Hibbert before and I was clearly missing something. The book is sweet and sexy and funny and so mature and adult. Chloe and Red spend almost the entire book talking to one another, getting to know each other, and working through their various problems. I was prepared to find it as dull as many of the cartoon-covered books that pass for romance these days but are really just women’s fiction.
