I love Talia Hibbert. I first read, Get a Life Chloe Brown, after it appeared on a best romance list, loved it and then devoured as many Hibbert novels as I could find. So I was super excited to read about the next Brown sister Dani. I really enjoyed it. I love how the author deals with sensitive issues and portrays individuals with mental illness. Kudos Talia, you are a treasure! I did not love Dani as much as I loved Chloe, but her love interest is yummy and I would marry him tomorrow. Read if you want a sweet contemporary romance with flawed characters. I was given an advanced reader's copy via NetGalley, thank you to them. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Oh my gosh this was so funny. I love Talia's writing style and found myself chuckling out loud quite often. It was a great story of a viral romance.

I liked this book even more than the first book in the series, Get a Life Chloe Brown. Talia Hibbert does a great job creating characters that feel real and putting them in situations we are invested in.
I especially liked her treatment of grief and anxiety.

Talia Hibbert is my new favorite writer! I love her unique characters, charming plots, and steam level. This is a great addition to her ouvre and I can’t wait to read more.

Take a Hint, Dani Brown is the follow up to Hibbert's Get a Life, Chloe Brown and follows the sister of Chloe, Dani, that we met in Get a Life. Dani is an ambitious college professor with serious career goals and zero time for long lasting romance commitments. But that doesn't stop her from having a soft spot for campus security officer (and former rugby player), Zafir. After a viral moment between the two brings attention to Zafir's organization that teaches young male athletes how to manage and understand their mental health, the two decide to invest in the attention by entering into a fake relationship. I think you know where this goes....

Take a Hint, Dani Brown is a sweet contemporary romance that follows a pretty typical template. I don't think there was anything incredibly original in this plot, but it was still a fun, quick read. If you enjoyed Get a Life, then Take a Hint will hit a lot of the same notes.

Ohh everyone is in for an AMAZING read coming up. If romance is your gig, then this book is for you.

I loved everything about this book. The smart, witty, witchy, Dani. The serious, romantic, protective Zaf who READS ROMANCE NOVELS. The fake relationship. The love. The whole story was just amazing. I am a sucker for romance so I was totally encapsulated in this story. I love how Talia always touches on really important topics - in Chloe Brown, she had a medical condition. In this book, Zaf has anxiety. She always makes her characters so relatable which is really important for me when it comes to rating books. I really liked how descriptive the story was, letting the reader know the feelings and emotions of the characters and how they deal with them.

This story was so cute, and lovable and.....SEXY. Oh yes, very much sexy and the sex scenes in this book were on POINT. I loved reading Chloe Brown, that was my favorite romance last year....but THIS next book is so much better. I cannot wait for the next book!

Fake relationship catnip. Dani is a driven PhD candidate with ever-changing hair colors and no time for a relationship. When her friend Zafir, the (hot) building security guard, rescues her from an elevator and the two of them go viral, he asks for her help. He’s trying to get his youth rugby charity off the ground, and the unexpected publicity of their “relationship” might be just the ticket. So the two friends agree to pretend to date for a month. As long as there are no feelings involved, it’s a perfect plan. Right.

This is the second book in a series, but could definitely be read as a standalone. I enjoyed the previous book featuring Dani’s older sister, but I liked this one even more. Dani and Zaf both have some emotional work to do, and watching them support each other and figure things out was a true pleasure. Plus he reads and vigorously defends romance novels. What’s not to like?

I don't often give 5 stars but this was a delightful, funny, and sweet story that for me represents the best of what Romance has to offer. The protagonists, as well as side characters, had depth and full lives and personalities. The sex scenes made sense and furthered the story. I loved the love displayed for the romance genre and the clear, empathetic attention to people who experience extreme anxiety and prolonged grief. A fantastic follow-up to Get A Life Chloe Brown.
