I love the representation found in Talia Hibberts books. The characters are all so unique and feel really though out. Many of her characters have conditions and have gone through realistic life events that shape them and make them feel real.
That being said I think I should stick to her YA novels as her adult characters are much too horny for me. I'm sure it's for someone else but it's really not to my taste. In this case the story felt a bit incomplete. I feel like the couple spent so long physically lusting after one another and having insecurity based misunderstandings that I never really felt like they were getting to know each other. I liked Chloe and felt like I knew her but left the novel not connected to Red at all. It was really disappointing as I'd read Take a Hint Dani Brown first and the love interest in that one was absolutely stunning. I don't think I'll read the last brown sister novel but I'll check in if there is another YA novel.
