Get a Life, Chloe Brown by Talia Hibbert has Chloe as the FMC who is daring herself to try new things after spending years keeping herself safe by no longer doing anything that might take her out of her comfort zone after struggling with fibromyalgia. In comes Red, a man who was forever changed after an abusive relationship and struggles to trust others like he used to before. Together they plan on helping Chloe tick off some items from her "Get a Life" list in exchange for Red getting a website back. They quickly realize they want to spend more time together outside of ticking boxes, something that scares them both.
I liked this book quite a bit. I thought Chloe and Red were really well written characters. I did think that they really do have a thing for doing stuff in public spots which made me laugh. My favorite part was when they visit the art gallery! I thought that scene was so sweet and funny. I do think that I spend a lot of my life escaping through reading and this hit a little close to home so I wasn't able to get fully immersed in the story. I think that writing diverse books is very important but I would recommend checking your triggers before reading this book to protect your mental health.
Trigger warning: chronic illness, chronic pain, classism, abusive relationship, toxic relationship
Tropes: rivals to lovers, neighbors, miscommunication, class disparity, millionaire romance
