I feel like I'm one of the last people to have read this book, but I'm so glad I finally did. I've fallen in love recently with Talia Hibbert's writing and Get a Life, Chloe Brown was a warm fluffy blanket of joy and humour when I needed it most.

I really enjoyed this book and the strengths of Chloe Brown definitely lie in the characterisation and relationship. The plot follows Chloe Brown who suffers from fibromyalgia (a chronic pain condition); since she became diagnosed with this chronic pain condition she reverted into herself, lost friends and her mental health took a dive. I've always loved the diversity that Talia Hibbert provides with her characters and to have an MC with a chronic pain condition was really refreshing. I've read very few books that touch on this subject.

Chloe seems prickly and stand-offish to begin with as she interacts with the superintendent, Red. Across the book she begins to open up and we see the friendship and relationship blossom and intensify. I really liked Red's character. On first impressions you may think he's a classic bad boy trope as he drives a motorcycle, has tattoos and seems to have a troubled past. However, he's just a sweet, caring and genuinely thoughtful guy who I really liked.

The romance in Chloe Brown got pretty hot in places, so if sexual scenes aren't your thing it's quite easy to skip over these. However, I think the whole thing was handled really well and Chloe and Red will have a special place in my heart for their romance.
