Annie has recently divorced and is now looking for love again. Her best friend, Sam, gets her to agree to go out with five guys from the online dating site that she recently joined. I was amazed at how her dates turned out. Are there really guys out there like that? There were some very humorous situations, that's for sure. I love the way Annie gets so emotional about Shane and assumes that she knows all about his type, yet upon self-examination, realizes that maybe he sees her in a similar way. Annie is a very no-nonsense girl and I love how she handles some of those awkward dates and situations.
Shane hasn't ever recovered from the broken heart he suffered from years ago, yet he finds himself going on one bad date to the next, with drama and crazies at every turn. Shane has been burned, yet he tortures himself with the dating scene, just in case he can find that special someone. He comes across as tough, but he's got a heart of gold--he's an amazing teacher and not everyone can do that. I love the part when he takes his dog, Tiny, in to be checked out for fleas.
Shane and Annie meet in such a sweet way but their insecurities and assumptions lead to misunderstandings and obstacles that may prove to be too great to overcome. With a story built upon misconceptions, I wasn't sure how things would work out, but they did. I loved it!
Content: minimal swearing; no violence; kissing--no intimate details. Clean!

At First Sight was an easy sweet read. The dialogue was witty and entertaining and had me laughing at times. The romance is slowly introduced in increments. Annie and Shane's navigation of online dating and set ups from friends provided endless sympathy and entertainment. They both have baggage from previous relationships that make dating a mine field. This book is a nice summer read to enjoy while laying on the beach or a few hours escapism from life's struggles.

A lovely straight forward romantic story... Love at first sight is exactly as the title suggests. Two young people destined to be together, although everyone can see it apart from them. The happy times come and go for both Annie and Shane, but their life is miserable without one another. Their love at first sight turns into a happy ever after. Another lovely story by Mya O'Malley.

Online dating, love at first sight and psycho ex's make for an interesting story in this book by Mya O'Malley. It seems that Shane and Annie's relationship is doomed from the start, can't they both put the past behind them and trust each other enough to make a future with each other? This is a fun, cute story that gets 4 stars from me.
