Join us as we read our way through the romance genre! We'll gush about our newest love story while unpacking the more complex sides of the genre as it grows and expands. Age 18 and up.
Summary:
"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. She has a list of things to do next, and one is to do something bad. But it's not easy being bad. 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. But when she enlists Red in her mission to rebel, she learns things about him that no spy session could teach her."
