Book Reviews
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 humor.
New York Times Book Review
Hibbert’s characters are not perfect.… They are realistically flawed —and hilarious and sexy, their bedroom high jinks scorching enough to make readers dissolve "like sugar in hot tea…." Hibbert joins important voices in contemporary romance (Helen Hoang comes to mind) who write steamy page-turners where the characters look nothing like they did a generation ago—and that’s a wonderful thing. Go ahead and push pause on your own life to get to know Chloe Brown.
Washington Post
[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…. Hibbert bills herself as an author of sexy, diverse romance—and she comes through in Get a Life, Chloe Brown, giving us passion, humor and some scorching love scenes…. what gives this story its depth is Hibbert's voice—you live each character's pain, joy, laughter, love, longing. And when Red Morgan and Chloe Brown get into your head—good grief—there's nothing like it.
NPR
(Starred review) [A] thrilling, life-altering adventure that will keep readers riveted.… Chloe is a fantastic heroine with a refreshing voice…endearing to Red [and] the reader.… Best of all, the romance is sizzling hot. This contemporary is a page-turning winner.
Publishers Weekly
(Starred review) Will readers giggle at the cuteness of the banter and weep at the emotional truths… as Chloe realizes it’s not her list that matters, and Red realizes Chloe is helping him get a life, too? Absolutely…. Is this book what the word "charming" was invented for? Probably.
Booklist
(Starred review) The plot sounds heavy, and Hibbert certainly writes authentic moments of physical and emotional pain, but this is an incredibly funny, romantic, and uplifting book.… Hilarious, heartfelt, and hot. Hibbert is a major talent.
