Blurb: Curvy fitness influencer Crystal Chen built her career shattering gym stereotypes and mostly ignoring the trolls. After her recent breakup, she has little stamina left for men, instead finding solace in the gym – her place of power and positivity.
Enter firefighter Scott Ritchie, the smug new gym patron who routinely steals her favorite squat rack. Sparks fly as these ultra-competitive foes battle for gym domination. But after a series of escalating jabs, the last thing they expect is to run into each other at their grandparents' engagement party.
In the lead up to their grandparents' wedding, Crystal discovers there’s a soft heart under Scott’s muscled exterior. Bonding over family, fitness, and cheesy pick-up lines, she just might have found her swolemate. But when a photo of them goes viral, savage internet trolls put their budding relationship to the ultimate test of strength.
Review: Set on You by Amy Lea is her debut novel. Crystal Chen is a curvy fitness Instagrammer who shares a body positive image. Scott Ritchie is a firefighter whose Grandfather is marrying Crystal’s mom. We follow their enemies to friends to lovers story.
The author has written great banter between the characters, funny and relatable relatives and friends, and she touches on issues that are not often talked about in romance fiction. I appreciated the authors perspective. The story walks us through the digital age of sharing your story, the following onslaught of people’s comments, and how different people deal with that. I look forward to reading more books by Amy Lea in the future!
I was given a complimentary copy by the publisher, Berkley, and not required to write a positive review.
