I received an advanced copy of Love at First Set through NetGalley so I could share my review with you! I absolutely adored this sweet gym-centric romance, which was my first five star read of Pride Month!

I have read and enjoyed several of Jennifer Dugan’s books before, but Love at First Set is easily my new favorite of her books!  I adore the bisexual disaster romance between Lizzie and Cara, who are just perfect together.  I was especially drawn in by the gym setting of the story, which was exciting to me as a queer woman who enjoys working out (a combo that I have not seen in nearly enough media).  Lizzie’s love for the gym and for her place there was so well written; her connection to the gym and the people in it defined the story, and established her as a passionate and caring character.

My Recommendation:
If you are a fan of Kiss Her Once for Me or Delilah Green Doesn’t Care, you have to grab a copy of Love at First Set!  This book is such a sweet and quick romantic read, perfect for any Pride Month TBR!
