USA TODAY BESTSELLER

A witty, hilarious romantic comedy about a woman who's tired of being "boring" and recruits her mysterious, sexy neighbor to help her experience new things--perfect for fans of Sally Thorne, Jasmine Guillory, and Helen Hoang!

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 seven directives to help her "Get a Life", and she's already completed the first: finally moving out of her glamorous family's mansion. The next items?

Enjoy a drunken night out.Ride a motorcycle.Go camping.Have meaningless but thoroughly enjoyable sex.Travel the world with nothing but hand luggage.And... do something bad.

But it's not easy being bad, even when you've written step-by-step guidelines on how to do it correctly. What Chloe needs is a teacher, and she knows just the man for the job.

Redford 'Red' Morgan is a handyman with tattoos, a motorcycle, and more sex appeal than ten-thousand Hollywood heartthrobs. He's also an artist who paints at night and hides his work in the light of day, which Chloe knows because she spies on him occasionally. Just the teeniest, tiniest bit.

But when she enlists Red in her mission to rebel, she learns things about him that no spy session could teach her. Like why he clearly resents Chloe's wealthy background. And why he never shows his art to anyone. And what really lies beneath his rough exterior...

Customer Reviews

Impressively Strong Differently Abled Loved Story

What a dynamic expression of one woman’s personal battle with Fibromyalgia, her personal struggle for independence, and exceptional journey to find the love she deserves and needs. It’s fascinating how the characters and their relationship evolve throughout the book. Impressed with the author’s ability to showcase the complexity of dealing with residual trauma, old traumatic baggage, and illustrating healthy ways of resolving them separately and together within a committed relationship. A fantastic read!

Cute and very inclusive read

An absolutely adorable story!! And what a great way to portray how traumatic an abusive relationship can be on a person's psyche! And to top it off, the author had a male being the one who got out of an abusive relationship. Its beyond rare seeing that. I loved how it all did work out but how both Red and Chloe went to therapy and worked out their issues. Im so glad Chloe realized that Red wasn't going to leave her like Henry did. And Red realized that chloe wasn't Pippa and wasnt going to abuse him like she did. The whole story was well thought out and the characters developed well, both on their own, and together!

Good Stand alone, kinda predictable.

I really enjoyed the book, such a cute typical romance novel. If you’re expecting something crazy and new maybe not the one for you. Classic good girl bad guy type of deal.
