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 a list of directives to help her ‘Get a Life’:

But it’s not easy being bad, even when you’ve written out step-by-step guidelines. What Chloe needs is a teacher, and she knows just the man for the job: Redford ‘Red’ Morgan.

With tattoos and a motorbike, Red is the perfect helper in her mission to rebel, but as they spend more time together, Chloe realises there’s much more to him than his tough exterior implies. Soon she’s left wanting more from him than she ever expected . . . maybe there’s more to life than her list ever imagined?

Reviews

Sometimes a book can change your life. It can turn you upside down and shake everything up and spit you back out with all your bits and bobs rearranged to give you a more complete picture of yourself than you've ever had before. That was my experience reading Get a Life, Chloe Brown. ... Hibbert's novel is a life-affirming, soul-searching, beautiful gem of a book that should be required reading for anyone in search of their own happily-ever-after. It's a resounding, triumphant testament to the power of healing, the beauty of love, and the essential nature of compassion. May we all get a life, and a love, like Chloe Brown
Entertainment Weekly
A tour-de-force romance that tackles tough problems like insecurity and chronic pain while still delivering a laugh-out-loud love story full of poignant revelations about human nature
NPR
A pure exuberant delight. I loved this book... It's also hilarious - Chloe in particular has a gloriously sardonic perception of the world - and it bounces along, and it will just make you feel better. Exactly what a romance should be
KJ Charles, author of <i> Proper English </i>
Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert was clever, sweet, sexy, and brilliant. It made me cry but in the best ways. Seeing a heroine with a similar disease to my own fall in love and be happy was everything

A charming enemies-to-lovers romantic coupling with a cinnamon-roll hero . . . Is this book what the word 'charming' was invented for? Probably

Naima Simone, <i>USA Today</i> bestselling author
I just finished Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert. My heart is full, and my pants are full of pants feeling for one Triumph-riding, painter, ginger named Red. So so so so good
Andie J. Christopher, <i>USA Today</i> bestselling author of <i>Not the Girl You Marry</i>
Looking for a book to hand to a newish romance reader? Pick this one. As hilarious as it is heartbreaking, Get a Life, Chloe Brown is a fantastic way to show new readers all that contemporaries can be

Poised to be a hit. This book distinguishes itself from the many other smart and sexy rom-coms of late by weaving in a discussion about chronic illness

Talia Hibbert is a rockstar! Her writing is smart, funny, and sexy, but most importantly, she'll make you fall in love with her sweetly imperfect characters, who are so real you'll wish you could give them all a hug
Meg Cabot, author of <i>No Judgments</i> and the Princess Diaries series
Is this book what the word 'charming' was invented for? Probably. This interracial romance with a disabled heroine is an #OwnVoices treat that will satisfy readers who love a cinnamon-roll hero and love scenes that scorch the dang pages
Booklist (starred review)
An incredibly funny, romantic, and uplifting book . . . Hilarious, heartfelt, and hot. Hibbert is a major talent
Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
Talia Hibbert shows how standard romance tropes - misunderstandings, meddling sisters, a steamy camping trip - can be elevated to sublime pleasure in the hands of a brilliant writer. Everything about Chloe and Red's story feels honest, specific and real. And magical, even when real-life concerns like chronic illness can never fade away. This is an extraordinary book, full of love, generosity, kindness and sharp humour
The New York Times
A thrilling, life-altering adventure that will keep readers riveted... Best of all, the romance is sizzling hot. This contemporary is a page-turning winner
Publishers Weekly (starred review)
This stunning romance tackles important topics, such as living with disability and surviving emotional abuse, without ever getting bogged down in despair. Hibbert's prose sparkles, and the heat is high, making this new series launch, the author's first with a mainstream publisher, perfect for fans of Tessa Bailey's Hot & Hammered series or Helen Hoang's The Kiss Quotient
