Tucker: I’m fine. I don’t need any help. I only have these bandages on my eyes for a week. I’ve never needed anyone, and I don’t plan on changing that now. But then my neighbor knocked on my door. I’ve never met her before, but I want to now. Her soft, sweet voice hits me right in the chest. I feel an ache deep inside, a profound emptiness I didn’t know I had. I’m broken, bitter, and a bastard to … to boot. Try as I might to shake off my intrusive yet intoxicating neighbor, she keeps showing up and taking care of me. I might have to see if I can make her stay forever.
Mila: I like to keep to myself. People tend to judge me by my weight, my scars, and my general lack of people skills. When I have to leave my apartment for food and supplies, I stick to the shadows, trying to navigate life unnoticed. But that doesn’t mean I don’t notice other people, especially my tall, dark, and stupidly handsome neighbor. I wouldn’t say I’ve been stalking him. I mean, I know his schedule, when he checks his mail, and where he keeps his spare key hidden. Under the doormat. Seriously? I know all about hiding places, and that one sucks. One day I hear through our shared wall what sounds like him taking a spill, and I have to go over and see if he’s okay. I somehow find myself over at his place day after day, falling more and more for the grumpy butt who has a surprising sweet streak. Will he still want to be with me when his bandages come off, or will he run away like everyone else in my life?
AT FIRST SIGHT is all about a quirky, curvy woman caring for her grumpy, growly alpha of a neighbor, and in turn, letting him heal her scars that are more than skin deep. As always, there’s plenty of sweet, lots of heat, and just enough drama to keep things interesting.

Oh my… I think these two characters are my ultimate favorite… I could not get enough of these two…
Mila is a funny awkward silly girl who doesn’t like to be around others because they stare at her scars.
Tucker is known as a serious grumpy man who has called off all woman.
She carries scares on the outside, and he carries scares inside.
This is a must read you will instantly fall in love with these two.
Loved it. I have been slowly reading through Cameron Hart’s books for 2 or 3 months now, and every one is so good! I keep thinking I’m going to find a dud, but nope! Her books have a lot of heat which I do prefer a romance has ‘cuz that’s the fun but these stories are so much more than that! These books aren’t only heat, there is always a real story and that story is full of heart Tucker was just enough Alpha personality but also vulnerable, especially while injured. Mila was so sweet. Understanding and lonely. I felt so bad for her, so much pain inside. I loved the way she brought out the teddy bear in Tucker, and how Tucker so whole heartedly loved all of Mila. He fell in love with her heart and soul without ever seeing her. This will definitely be a re-read. …oh, and big love to Sergeant Snuggles/monster
I always like a romance where both madly in love in the personality-wise regardless of the appearance. Whimsical perhaps considering how everything was judged from the outer outlook instead of inner beauty. But one can always be dreaming of finding such love; one way to do that was from this book, I supposed. A lovely book of how beautiful people are inside.
Was this a “Cheesy,” and steamy book? Yes. But, you know what else, it was? Fun. This is a book about two very scared people. There is one emotionally, and the other physically which, enhances our physical, too, after awhile. One is grumpy, from lack of nooky, in years. The other is a virgin.
Both, have insecurities. Weight and physical scars are, the issue, for one. The other, the feelings, of never being enough, or important enough. While at the same time, they had been suffering alone, right next door to each other, not even knowing it, of loneliness.
Yet, for a whole year that Mila had been hiding away trying to blend in. She had been lusting over Tucker. But, his gruff attitude after work never allows him to get to know anyone giving off the “LEAVE ME ALONE” sign all the time. An injury at work brings the two together.
The positives are, Mila always sees the good in people and situations probably due to her situation. She has empathy giving aid where needed. Tucker shows a willingness to open up to Mila soon after meeting her. Foreign to him after being burned before a couple of times. Change for them is fearful yet, together they seem to work together.
Total erotic couple, starts off like a romantic comedy but once this virgin finds her groove watch out! free book giveaway.
When quiet neighbor Mila hears a crash in her neighbors apartment, she rushes over to make sure her neighbor, Tucker, was ok. Though they’d never met, Mila knew a lot about his schedule. When she finally meets her hot neighbor, it’s not exactly the way she’d hoped. You see, Tucker’s just had surgery and both of his eyes are bandaged, making him blind. That’s a good and bad thing for Mila because she’s been hiding herself from people ever since the car accident that left her an orphan with scars on her face and body. Staying in the shadows has become her specialty and since she became an influential food blogger, she’s not had to worry to much about being out in public, It’s easy to cover her face with her hoodie, not to mention the baggie clothing keeps prying eyes off of her.
When Tucker realizes that there’s more to his quiet neighbor he’s intrigued. When both her and her dog start spending their days with him, it makes his week go by quickly, but he’s wanting more from her than just friends. Even though he can’t see her, he knows so much about her and he’s hooked. He can’t believe that she’s lived next door, yet they’ve never met, not even at their mailboxes.
Mila’s afraid of what will happen then Tucker’s no longer bandaged, and Tucker can’t wait to get this amazing woman in his bed and keep her in his life. Will he be able to convince this shy woman that she’s exactly what he wants, and the scars don’t matter. Will Mila believe the handsome man she’s wanted from afar since they became neighbors?
This is a short but worthy read. I absolutely loved both Mila and Tucker’s characters, though I wish Mila could’ve been a bit stronger. I loved the ending, the writing is good, as is the story arc.

Nice story about the grumpy guy who doesn’t want to ask for help,from anyone. Enter his sweet neighbor who won’t give up. Even though Tucker can’t see, he’s drawn to Mila. Mila has some insecurities that she needs to work through. Steamy story with low angst.
“At First Sight” is a deliciously sexy, sweet, steamy read by one of my go to authors for novella length books. This book will fulfill that craving for a quick and satisfying afternoon read.
Mila is a beautifully broken woman, suffering from both physical and emotional scars that she hides behind. She has curves for days and a heart of gold and has secretly been pining for her sexy neighbor.
Tucker is also beautifully damaged, a difficult childhood and a lack luster history with women has left him bitter and cold. All that changes when his beautiful neighbor helps him through a difficult time.
Watching Mila and Tucker fall in love and heal each other’s damaged hearts and souls makes for a fantastic read. Not only is this a book about love and happily ever after, it’s also about acceptance and understanding. TBR and enjoy.
