A Love So True Books Every Romance Fan Should Read
 
A sparkling and tender novel from the acclaimed author of Love Lettering, full of bickering neighbors, surprise reunions, and the mysterious power of love that fans of Christina Lauren, Sarah Hogle, and Emily Henry will adore.
 
Sixteen years ago, a teenaged Will Sterling saw—or rather, heard—the girl of his dreams. Standing beneath an apartment building balcony, he shared a perfect moment with a lovely, warm-voiced stranger. It’s a memory that’s never faded, though he’s put so much of his past behind him. Now an unexpected inheritance has brought Will back to that same address, where he plans to offload his new property and get back to his regular life as an overworked doctor. Instead, he encounters a woman, two balconies above, who’s uncannily familiar . . .
 
No matter how surprised Nora Clarke is by her reaction to handsome, curious Will, or the whispered pre-dawn conversations they share, she won’t let his plans ruin her quirky, close-knit building. Bound by her loyalty to her adored grandmother, she sets out to foil his efforts with a little light sabotage. But beneath the surface of their feud is an undeniable connection. A balcony, a star-crossed couple, a fateful meeting—maybe it’s the kind of story that can't work out in the end. Or maybe, it’s the perfect second chance . . .

Praise for Love at First

“This steamy romantic comedy features a flawed but likable hero and heroine in a second-chance, enemies-to-lovers story…This well-written novel moves quickly, and readers will be unable to put it down. Highly recommended.”
—Library Journal STARRED REVIEW

“LOVE AT FIRST is only my second book by Kate Clayborn, but she’s now on my auto-buy list because both have been absolute stunners, written in a warm, witty, complex voice, and I cannot get enough. This one is a tear-jerker where, by Chapter 2, you are cheering for the characters to forgive themselves — because by that point you’re already certain they deserve forgiveness as well as happiness. It’s hard to make a romantic relationship feel fated, especially in a contemporary setting, but Clayborn does. I stayed up until 1 a.m. reading because I simply couldn’t stand to go to sleep until Nora and Will resolved things. At the end I was left with that warm, glowing love for humanity that is always what I’m chasing when I read this genre: the sense of togetherness, of hope, of even unsolvable problems feeling less impossible. Because a good romance lets you forgive the people on the page. A great romance lets you forgive people in general — and feel that maybe they even deserve it.”
—The New York Times
 
“Constantly revealing new layers of lyricism…Love at First is poetry, then — sometimes an artful sonnet, other times halting free verse. But it's never anything short of miraculous.”
—Entertainment Weekly, Grade A
 
“This is a gorgeously written romance with a line that perfectly sums up a truth for many a romance character (or human): We don't have to love the way we learned to love at first.”
—NPR
 
“Will and Nora’s chemistry and the quirky side characters keep the pages turning. Clayborn’s fans will be pleased.”
—Publishers Weekly
 
“Clayborn explores the experience of falling in love in a Chicago apartment building in a contemporary romance that will resonate with city dwellers and rural readers alike…A superb cast of characters rounds out this sweet, slow-burn romance.”
—Booklist
 
“A Mary Balogh–style love story…The comforting rewrite of Romeo and Juliet you didn’t know you needed.”
—Kirkus Reviews
 
“Clayborn employs her signature combination of past emotional wounds and tender blossoms of hope to gradually twine her two protagonists together, allowing them to--temporarily--live in denial even as they fall deeply in love. Her beautiful prose is full of a softness and depth that lingers--passages beg to be reread and savored--while moments of humor and gently smoldering passion lift what might otherwise be a slow and overly sentimental read. Perfect for fans of Christina Lauren and Emily Henry, Love at First feels like a long, warm hug upon returning home.” —Shelf Awareness
 
“Kate Clayborn’s Love at First is one of those books that you immediately feel has wrapped you up in a warm hug, and in which the characters and their story creep gradually and unobtrusively under your skin and wind around your heartstrings.  Ms. Clayborn is one of my few go-to contemporary romance authors, and this book demonstrates yet again exactly why that is; this is a beautifully understated but gloriously romantic love story full of poignancy and tenderness featuring fully-rounded, supremely relatable characters with ordinary, everyday lives and ordinary, everyday problems.”
—All About Romance
 
“Clayborn remains one of my favorite authors, and I can’t wait to see what she will write next.”
—Frolic
 
“A beautiful book and worth the painful beginnings…”
—Smart Bitches, Trashy Books
 
“Kate Clayborn fed my romance reading soul with this book.”
—The Infinite Limits of Love
 
“A thoughtful, almost whimsical novel about loss and letting go, moving on from painful pasts, and falling head over heels in love with your supposed nemesis, Kate Clayborn thoroughly charmed me with Love at First. Highly recommended.”
—Harlequin Junkie
 
“Finding a home, a family, love; overcoming long-held fears; letting go of the past when change is scary – it’s all here. And it is BEAUTIFUL.”
—The Smut Report

Praise for Kate Clayborn
 
“A novel of lush complexity, one bursting with humor, a tender melancholy, and meditations on love, friendship, and life, any reader can find solace and inspiration in. It’s lyrical and engrossing, a novel that possesses all the colors, idiosyncrasies, and range of the alphabet. Like the pages Meg designs, Love Lettering is a novel bursting with hidden messages essential to discover—long as we open our hearts to analyze the codes.”
—Entertainment Weekly, A+ for Love Lettering
 
“Quirky and winning.”
—USA Today on Love Lettering
 
“Fresh, funny, clever, and deeply satisfying.”
—Kirkus Reviews, STARRED REVIEW on Love Lettering
 
“Love Lettering does much more than just give us a cute love story. The novel isn’t just about love—it’s about communication both in romantic relationships and in friendships.”
—Hypable on Love Lettering

“I flew through this creative and original book. I was completely absorbed by the world Kate Clayborn creates—the characters felt so real and their joys and sorrows and struggles and triumphs felt so relatable that I forgot I was reading fiction.”
—Jasmine Guillory, New York Times bestselling author of The Proposal on Love Lettering
  
“Love Lettering is delicious and beautiful and perfect.”
—New York Times bestselling author Sarah MacLean on Love Lettering
 
"What if you and your two best friends all went in together on a winning lottery ticket? The romance between Kit, a no-nonsense scientist who dreams of her first real home, and Ben, a recruiter and builder (I promise, it works) is emotional and real. Plus, I adored Kit’s strong relationship with her two best friends."
—O, The Oprah Magazine, Best Romances of the Year, on Beginners Luck
  
"A warm and lively romance"
—The New York Times on Luck of the Draw
  
"Clayborn’s characters are bright and nuanced, her dialogue quick and clever, and the world she builds is warm and welcoming." 
—The Washington Post, 5 Best Romances of the Year for Luck of the Draw

“This book is hilarious and moving and sexy, with a focus on strong female friendship, guilt that’s hard to let go of, and one of the most realistic, and ultimately romantic, fake fiance´ setups I’ve ever read.”
—Buzzfeed,Best Romances of the Year, on Luck of the Draw
  
“Despite all the time we spend tethered to screens, the truth is that humans live with technology, not in it—at least for now. Kate Clayborn’s Love Lettering is a flawless representation of that truth…a lush, languid romance that merges the nostalgic past with the technological present.”
—The Washington Post on Love Lettering

Cute romance!

Cute romance!
"Love At First" is the first book I've read by Kate Clayborn. I requested it after hearing Christina Lauren rave about her. They being one of my favorite author duos, I couldn't resist one of their recommendations. I anticipated that Love At First would be cut from the same cloth as the CLo books that I love: light in nature, witty banter, steamy in all the right places. I thought this would be an easy rom-com to distract. I was wrong.Love At First left a lot of lingering thoughts after I'd finished. The book had a slow start, and I didn't really seem to "get into it" until a quarter of the way in, probably because I kept waiting for the com in rom-com to kick into gear. Turns out this isn't a rom-com, but a journey for two people whose lives accidentally intersected years previously, only for them to somehow find their way back to each other. It's a story about growing through your worries, your concerns, and what you think is part of your nature, in order to experience life to the fullest.I really identified with Nora, whose idea of loyalty was tied to the notion that everything would have to stay the same in order to honor her loved one. Nora was scared of change, letting her family down, and most obviously letting her guard down to let in someone new. I feel that in every fiber of the birthday cards I've been saving for the last 10 years. Will is afraid that he's going to turn out like his parents, to his own detriment. He's worried that he'll be so singularly focused that he'll ruin himself and someone else in the process.I really enjoyed this story once I wrapped my head around what it was going to be and could appreciate it for what it was. I'm interested to see what else Kate Clayborn has to say. I was going to rate this a 3, but the more it sits with me the more I think it's definitely a 4 star read. I think Will and Nora (and Jonah, Benny, Emily, Marian, and Gerald (Gerry!) will be with me for a long time to come.Tw: abandonment, family issues

4.0 out of 5 stars A whimsical and romantic story with found family, humor, and kittens!
Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2021
Verified Purchase
Love at First has many fun and sweet things to recommend: whimsical prose, unexpected kittens, a cozy Chicago setting, a doctor hero who wears GLASSES with a tender heart, a smart and no-nonsense heroine with the coolest apartment building, Poetry Night, and a grand gesture moment. My favorite was the funniest, most unlikely bromance-friendship. I can’t divulge details because they would spoil the dry humor of the situation, but let me tell you, I LOLed as it developed!

The romance incorporates the best tropes, with an almost-friends (4am balcony convos!) to enemies to friends to lovers with a little found family happening in the background for both leads. I really liked the deeper themes covered in subtle ways as Nora and Will get closer: moving on from grief, learning how to love, and how vulnerabilities cause people to shield or self-sabotage their intimate relationships.

I loved that Clayborn has used 2 POVs in this story, that of the hero and heroine (the other Clayborn novel I have read, Love Lettering [shoutout to Reid and Meg and NYC!], has just the heroine’s POV and it works SO WELL for that story’s purpose). I really liked getting Will’s perspective, especially as I learned more about his history. And, at a few key romantic moments, I liked that it shifted to his POV. 😊 Will is definitely going on my new Bespectacled Book Boyfriend list.

Content note: some mild to strong expletives throughout, sensuality, and a couple moderately detailed sex scenes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lovely, lovely story
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2021

This is one of the books that I want to give more stars to. It deserves all the stars. I didn't think I'd like another Clayborn book more than Love Lettering, but I was wrong. Okay, am I raving? Yes, I am.
Sixteen-year-old Will visits an old apartment building in Chicago where he finds he has a previously undisclosed to him uncle. The visit is life-changing, both because of the family disclosures and because of the girl Will spots on a balcony above the apartment. Twelve years later Will is back, having inherited his uncle's apartment.
I'm not usually big on love at first sight romances but this one is just perfect. Ms. Clayborn's writing really sells the concept here. It helps that Will and Nora are made for each other. And the cast of supporting characters is great, from Will's boss and his ex-wife to the other residents of the apartment building. No one is a caricature; every single person owns their place in the narrative.
There's a lot going on besides the romance. Nora's fear of change, Will's loneliness and fear of rejection, Gerald's attempt at a second chance with his ex, and the various activities of the people in the building.
It's a lovely story, well-written with believable characters in a different setting from most romances. I really loved this book and recommend it highly.

I had been excited about Love at First for such a long time, and moved it up on my TBR after reading and loving Love Lettering. While I did like a lot of things about this book, in the end it was just okay. The best part for me was all of Nora's neighbors. I thought that they were all really quirky and fun. I would love to have all of them as neighbors. I also really loved the bond and love Nora speaks about having with her Grandma. I did have an okay time with the rest of the book, but for the most part I feel like a lot of it was forgettable.

Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2023

Earlier this year when I read Love Lettering, I could not stop recommending it to people and the word I used to describe it was “tender”. Get ready people because I’m going to be just as annoying recommending Love at First!

Will Sterling first encounters Nora Clarke as a sullen teenager on the balcony of the building where her grandmother and his uncle live. Sixteen years later, Will’s uncle dies and leaves him the apartment where he meets Nora and her crew of neighbors and solicits their ire by having the audacity to turn the apartment into a short term rental.

Watching Will and Nora fall in love feels like a privilege on these pages. They are whole human beings with dysfunctions and hang ups and so much love. The entire cast of neighbors (and Gerald and Sally!) are integral to how tender and delightful this story is.

I was going to come up here and leave some cutesy one liner review saying, “I always knew I had a thing for characters named Will” and whilst that is extremely true, I did not expect the waterworks of the last chapter before the epilogue to come and ruin all my halfassed plans to waste.

NO ONE EVER TOLD WILL THEY LOVED HIM? NOT EVEN HIS PARENTS? Broke me. Absolutely shattered me. Someone hold that fictional man tight and never stop telling him GOODNESS GRIEF

This book is adorable, not in a cheesy way. The beginning is slow but very needed for the storyline. It could qualify for an enemy to lover, but it is so much more subtle than that. Moreover, I loved the writing in the third person, very appropriate in this case. As a reader, it made me feel like a quiet observer of Will and Nora's emotions.
