The One
When your best friend is also your boss, ‘great ideas’ aren’t always optional.
After all, when you run the largest fashion, gossip and trend blog in the country, you got to take risks to keep it edgy.
Believe me. This is edgy.
The idea? For one week, date every male fantasy.
The list?
The Jock
The Rock star
The Billionaire
The Stepbrother
See how they are all crossed off except one? That’s because he’s Satan.
And Scottish.
And my best friend’s stepbrother.
And there may or may not have been an incident in Jr. high that he hasn’t forgiven me for…but that’s history.
Or so I hope, because I’m at his mercy for the next week…

3.5 stars!
What started out as a wonderful opportunity for the business turned out to be one of the most stressful projects in Meredith’s life.
As a blogger/accountant/partner in Rox.com, a successful blog her best friend Roxi started, Meredith is in the unfortunate position of working for her best friend. Yes, she is a partner, but since Roxi is the main brains behind the blog, Roxi still has the final say. So, when Roxi suggested a new idea for the blog—one that could generated thousands of new readers and possibly more media exposure—Meredith is the one assigned to go through with it.
The idea: For one week, date every male fantasy—the jock, rock star, billionaire, and stepbrother. Sounds like a dream come true, doesn’t it?
One by one, Meredith meets the dream men, and each dream gets completely shattered. Instead of meeting the men every women fantasized about, she meets obnoxious, delusional, and full-out dangerous creeps.
With only two men left to date, Meredith has little to no hope that the last two would outshine the others. She wanted to quit, but Roxi added in something that’s hard to refuse—the last two dates will be in Scotland, the top country in Meredith’s bucket list travel goals.
So off to Scotland she goes. Roxi said that “the stepbrother” stereotype will be the one to pick up Meredith, but little did Meredith know that the stepbrother was actually Kirby, Roxi’s stepbrother. The worst part is, Kirby still hasn’t forgiven her for what she did in junior high.
As you can see, this book has an interesting plot. The cover called to me, but the blurb completely won me over.
I liked this book, but it needs a few editing here and there. It bothered me that we never really found out what the incident in junior high was, and Meredith seemed to have flipped from hating Kirby to loving him in an instant.
I did enjoy the banter between the two, and Kirby is a sweetheart. He screams of virility, and that brogue of his is just dreamy (hey, I'm imagining Sam Heughan's accent so yes). I also enjoyed reading about Scotland and its sights. Not enough to want to try haggis, but enough to crave for tattie scones. Yum.
All in all, I enjoyed reading this book, and hopefully there will be a next one to give Roxi her happily every after, too.

So, basically all I want to do with my life is travel and read books. Someone needs to tell me how I can get paid for that. I have a list of AT LEAST 25 places I need to get to.
But until I find my way to all of those places, I’ll just read books where the main character gets to go on the trip of a lifetime. While that wasn’t the main focus of The One by Kristin Vayden, it certainly wasn’t a deterrent for me! The One follows Meredith on her quest to date one guy from each “dream stereotype” as a part of her job working on a fashion blog.
Surprise, surprise, each of the dates she goes on is a total dud. Meredith is about to bail, when she learns that the next two dates are in Scotland! Seeing as how Scotland is on her bucket list, she figures she might as well…and then is totally blindsided by her boss/best friend’s stepbrother picking her up from the airport. Seems that they have a history – there may or may not have been an incident in Jr. High that he hasn’t forgiven her for….
Sounds like fun, right?! Well…. for the most part, it was. Meredith and Kirby have some pretty fun banter, and there’s some good tension, and even some discussion of beautiful Scotland! That being said, there were some pretty big holes. First, we never find out what the “unforgiveable incident” was. WHAT? I mean, I need to know. Otherwise, how am I supposed to know they are mortal enemies or some such? Second, these characters were a bit flat for me. The most interesting guy was the sort-of villain….but that could actually just be a statement on my general preference for villainy.
I wasn’t really expecting this to be anything wildly groundbreaking, but predictable might be my single word to describe it. I think that the part I struggled with was not the predictability, but just how quickly Meredith’s feelings change. I would say spoiler alert, but come on guys. You know when you go to the movies, and you get up to go get a refill on your two-gallon Diet Coke, only to come back and feel like you’re in a totally different movie? That was this book. Except I didn’t have that much Diet Coke.
Quick read, probably best for those spare hours and extra glass of wine you've got laying around!

I loved the bickering between Kirby and Meredith. They were hilarious together. Also, the descriptions of Scotland were awesome and it was like going on a mini-vacation as I was reading. The only reason I didn't give this five stars was because there were some typos I found distracting and the sex scenes were rather tame/glossed over. Not that I wanted super descriptive hotness, but they had such great chemistry throughout the book, I just expected it to carry through when they finally hooked up. Other than that, I liked their story enough to read it in one sitting.

This was one book I was so looking forward to due to its blurb shining in originality and sounding fun and I was not disappointed.
Meredith worked for her best friend Roxi on a hugely successful internet blog. When Roxi came up with one of her ideas it usually spelled disaster for Meredith and she wasn't wrong this time either. After completing a poll on the blog about dating, Roxi wanted to send Meredith on a dating spree with 4 types of men, 1 week to date each then write a blog post on her experience. After the first 2 Roxi announces that she wants Meredith to fly to Edinburgh in Scotland for the next 2 guy's and since it's on her bucket list of places to visit she couldn't refuse. Fast forward to Meridith's arrival in Edinburgh and she can't believe her eyes when Satan aka Kirby and Roxi's stepbrother picks her up because lets face it they hate each other and have done since junior high. So can these 2 get their act together or will Meredith fall in love with the billionaire instead?
This is the first book I have read by this author and I loved it. It was well written and the storyline was filled with humour and unforgettable moments. Kirby was a sweetheart and very considerate towards Meredith even if there was secrets hiding in the closet that he couldn't yet spill. Meredith was what I would describe as a brave woman, most of the time she acted on impulse rather than pussyfoot around and it got the job done. The only slight problem I had with the book was in the slang spelling. I am Scottish myself and some of it was slightly off. However I am west coast and Edinburgh is east coast and has a deeper slang accent so it might be that so don't let it put you off because this book is a must read.

Učila som sa na štátnice fonetiku, konkrétne anglické prízvuky, tak som si ako študijný materiál k tomu vybrala romantickú knihu s hlavnou postavou sexy Škóta s jeho ešte viac sexy škótskym prízvukom... počíta sa to ako učenie? #askingforafriend

I was hyped to read this when I first saw the blurb. I expected it be a fun rom-com type of book and that is exactly what Kristin delivered.
Meredith is co-owner and CPA of a lifestyle blog. her best friend being the ideas woman that she is comes up with the perfect theme for a blog piece. Dream Dates. Who better to go on these dates than perma singleton Meredith.
what follows is a hilarious look at the reality behind dating a sports star, billionaire etc. I probably have given this 5 stars if there had been a little more detail on these dates. What we did get was funny as hell but each one was very short. until we get to the Step Brother.
Before her last date Meredith is a little disillusioned with the whole debacle. the only way she can be bribed into going to meet the 'step brother' is by being bribed with a trip to Scotland.
once she arrives she learns that the guy she's meeting is not exactly who she is expecting.
Kristin hit this book almost spot on. having lived in Scotland, the details and feeling for the place she evokes are so good.
the only reason it dropped a star from me was the above mentioned dates and a few moments where I thought Meredith should have known more than she did. silly details that weren't exactly needed but were definitely noticeable.
I loved Kirby, and was surprised by how deep his character went. given his attitude in the beginning I didn't expect for him to be as likable as he was.
all in all a fantastic read that I would highly recommend to anyone.
This one would make a perfect movie.

This was such a great book! I love the banter that takes place between Meredith and Kirby. Added to the fact that Kirby is a Scotsman just made him all the more appealing to me! Kirby was so funny at times and there was a moment where he was a bit creepy but being honest if I walked into my hotel room to find him on my bed I don't think I would be that upset. Meredith and Kirby knew each other before and when they see each other again they tend to act a little like children. How else are you suppose act around your nemesis? Who happens to now be hot and the sexual chemistry is off the charts! While this was my first book by Kristen I can tell you it won't be my last. I couldn't believe I haven't read any of her work yet. She wrote a witty pair of characters that had me laughing at times while fan myself with my kindle at others.

This was my first read from Kristin Vayden and I really enjoyed her writing.
I'm a sucker for witty and sarcastic banter between the characters and this book had it spot on!
The dates poor Meredith went on had me laughing like crazy!
So much for fantasies!
Then there's Kirby!
Oh boy, now there's one fantasy I'd like to explore!
The Scotsman!! yum
Loved Kirby, his accent and his antics!
I also enjoyed the walk through Scotland. I've never been, but always wanted to.
Gave me a little glimpse. Not a whiskey drinker, but delved a bit into that as well.
This was a light, funny, sweet and very cute read.

The review first appeared at http://www.bookwormeverlasting.com/re...
Long time BookwormEverlasting.com readers will know that I absolutely love my romance novels, so I was more than happy to read The One by Kristin Vayden. The book stood out to me even before I read it because Meredith, the main character, basically goes on a gigantic date tour. She goes out with several archetypical men, such as the Jock, the Rock Star, and the Billionaire. They all sound like dream dates, right? Wrong! The dates Meredith went on actually made me happy to be married and out of the dating pool.
Even the one date that intrigued me the most (the Billionaire) ended up a huge disaster, but I won’t spoil that story! At last, though, Meredith met her last date. He also happened to be her best friend’s step brother and a man she wasn’t too happy to see. An incident occurred when they were younger that caused them both to be very unhappy when they saw who their date was going to be.
I did enjoy seeing them together because of all the pretending they did about not liking each other. It made for some interesting sexual tension between them. My favorite was their dialogue though. They were both so sarcastic towards each other that I found myself laughing.
I did not enjoy the fact that whatever incident occurred when they were younger was never mentioned specifically. It is brought up so often that I was turning page after page in hopes of finding out what she did that was so unforgivable. Clearly, by the end of the story, it was forgivable though. It would have made the story a bit more interesting, and a lot less rushed, if that was explained a bit more.
The One was still a fun, and quick read. It was exciting and interesting at first, but lost most of its appeal towards the middle. By the ending it was predictable and over too soon.

Oh I adored this one. I was able to read this in one sitting. Seriously couldn't put it down. And now I seriously feel the need to go to Scotland.
Meredith is the CPA and co-investor in her best friends blog. And she has come up with a new idea that she wants Meredith to do. Speed dating of every arch type male that the female viewers were interested in. She dates the Jock, the Rockstar, The Biker, The Millionaire and the Step-brother. Each date successional bad disasters.
The last two - the millionaire and step-brother are located in Scotland and one is actually already known to Meredith... Kirby. Kirby and his awesome sexy Scottish brogue.
Kirby was once a step-brother to Meredith's best friend. They cross that thin line between love and hate. The repartee between these two his hilarious, and the chemistry that brews beneath the surface... hot.
Can Kirby be "The One" or will he just be another failed part of the blog experiment.

This book was not at all what I was expecting it to be, to be honest I hadn't any real expectations going into it but was very pleasantly surprised by it.
This was a pretty unique storyline. Meredith is set the task to date all different types of men, I.e Alpha, musician, millionaire, stepbrother etc. She has some real disasters but when she realises who she's been sent to Scotland to date she wants to strangle her best friend/boss.
Kirby is Roxi's stepbrother who has a secret she is holding over him, but he ends up using this to his advantage. Kirby was a real jerk at times in the beginning, there were ages things he said to Meredith that really annoyed me.
Overall this book was a fun, light read. It never lost my interest and had me tittering at times throughout. I really enjoyed this writers style but I would have loved to get an insight into Kirby's thoughts.

Kirby is like one of those creepers that wait in the dark, well in this case laying on Merry's hotel bed in the dark, this one scene had me almost peeing myself, "I flicked on the light and tossed my purse onto the bed……hitting Kirby directly in the groin. “What the hell!” Kirby is a cocky little ****, "Kirby walked over to me and shoved a cracker in my mouth. I tried to bite his hand. “Hey now…be nice.”He patted my head. “If you want a piece of this, all you have to do is ask,”he said and walked away." I loved this book, Kirby was an annoying butthole at times but he did it so sexily and the banter between him and Merry was entertaining as hell.

What a fun and sexy read!!
Kirby's brogue was just to die for... **swoon**
A new to me author - I thoroughly enjoyed.. would love to get a sequel on Roxi
full review to come..

It happens in Scotland (score!) and it's really funny!

The One by Kristin Vayden is a romantic comedy that I listened to on audio narrated by Tor Thom and Charley Ongel.
This is the first book of Kristin's that I have read and it definitely won't be my last. I had a smile on my face through the entire book. I loved the relationship that bloomed between Meredith and Kirby.
Tor and Charley did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you love romantic comedies or contemporary romance.

The blurb of this book is what made me want to one-click it, the story inside was what kept me reading till “The End”.
We meet Meredith and her best friend Roxie, who are co-owners of a very successful blog, and when Roxie presents Meredith with an amazing idea, we know this is going to lead to nothing but disaster. The story? Spend one week dating each of the male fantasy’s and write about it for the blog. Nothing can go wrong, right? Well… it does, and at times it is so funny and other times I was cringing with what Meredith had to go through.
The athlete, a complete disaster, the musician, even worse.. then there is the bad guy.. oh man, these three were awful and I hurt from laughing so hard as well as cringing at these guys and Meredith’s experiences with them. When a snafu happens and the millionaire and step-brother are in a foreign country Meredith had reached her limits, till she found out she would get to go to her dream vacation of Scotland to date these two guys. What she didn’t expect was the step-brother to be Roxie’s step-brother and Meredith’s most hated enemy, Kirby.
When these two see each other for the first time, after years apart, I could feel the chemistry sparking between them immediately, even through their hate speak back and forth. It was just verbal foreplay looking back. These two love to push each others button’s and try to one up one another, and it becomes a joy to read about these two, but first Meredith has to date the millionaire. I thought this would go well, but again, a total disaster, and I wanted to strangle him when their time was up, so that just left Kirby, the step-brother.
As a reader, you catch on a lot sooner than Meredith does, that Kirby and her are inevitable and are going to happen. It’s just getting her to realize it, that takes some time. As much as Kirby can be a total jerk in this book, he’s sweet and caring, and so in love with Meredith it’s not funny. I loved watching their relationship progress in this book, as well as all the LOL moments we got while reading their story.
This book has many ups and downs and was full of laughs. It was just the perfect book I needed after reading so many deep books lately. The humor had me laughing out loud, and the story was sweet and steamy as well. I wanted to hate Kirby, but ended up falling for him and the way Meredith and Kirby’s story ended was beautiful. I hope one day we get to read Roxie’s story and see her fall for a guy as well! If you’re looking for a LOL book with a steamy romance, I suggest added The One by Kristin Vayden to your TBR list today!

The One is the first book that I have read from Kristin Vayden, and I really enjoyed it. This book was exactly what I needed after the slump I have been in with reading lately. The One was light, funny, sweet and really cute and I had a great time reading it. This definitely won't be the last I read from Kristin Vayden, and I really hope that we get a story for Meredith's best friend Roxy!
When Meredith's best friend and boss Roxy comes up with "a great idea" she finds herself unable to say no even though she knows that it is most likely to be a disaster as her previous great ideas have been. But when Roxy tells her that she gets an all expense paid trip out of the deal, she reluctantly agrees and sets out to do her job. Meredith must go on dates with different versions of every female's fantasy and then write about her experiences. One the list are the jock, rockstar, billionaire, and the stepbrother. Except Meredith had no idea that the stepbrother would be Roxy's stepbrother who she has a not so pleasant past with.
I liked Meredith and Kirby a lot! They had so much history between them, and I found them adorable together! The chemistry they had was so much fun to watch, and their banter was fantastic. While I did like the characters and the way they were together, I felt like I didn't really get to know them beyond surface deep though and I would have liked to have been given more depth when it came to them. I also would have loved to have seen more of their history, especially the big incident that had caused them to dislike one another. I couldn't believe that we never get that, and was really disappointed to have never learned what it was.
I also saw some inconsistencies and holes here, but that could be because I had an advanced copy and they might have been fixed in the final version. I still had a good time reading this one though, and I am definitely hoping we get more of these characters as I thought they were a ton of fun. I would love for Roxy to get a story because you could really see how much personality she has and I think her story would be just as good as this one. Despite the criticisms I had, this is one I would recommend if you are looking for something light and fun with some great banter. I look forward to reading more from Kristin Vayden in the future.

For the love of all things Scottish... This book was amazing!!! I was on board with the overall Idea of the story from the first chapter and as I read it just keep getting better and better. Funny, charismatic and just believably sweet, this book had it all. Add in one HUNKY Scotsman, a quirky American and a meddling BFF and this story will seriously hook you fast.
KIRBY is unbelievably wantable in every way!! He's thoughtful , sarcastic and the biggest pain in Meredith's ass. She flies thousands of miles to Scotland and gets the surprise of her life... She's transported back to the seventh grade and the man that's picking her up from the airport is her biggest nemesis. THIS IS MY FAVORITE TWIST!!!! I mean it's kinda second chance relationship which is right up my alley. I mean these two come together in the weirdest circumstances and from the first moment, they are slinging insults and the banter is just entertaining.
The setting for this book is just to die for. Scotland for a week with a crazy bearded hot man to occupy your time... Ummmm YES PLEASE!!! Meredith is so lucky (in a totally swoony voice!!) This girl is just has no idea how lucky she is because she can't believe her eyes at her BFF's stepbrother standing in front of her. With the setting being unbelievably fan-FREAK'N-tastic, this story had me swiping my finger on my kindle like a mad woman.
This was my first book by Kristin (totally lowers head ashamed) AND IT WON'T BE MY LAST!! I love hidden gems and this author is exactly that. This story was fantastic right from the start and didn't disappoint. I was enamored and completely smitten with the characters and was just so sad to see the book end. I can't wait for more from this author and I seriously hope this series NEVER ENDS... Hint hint I want to see more from our girl Roxi... Just saying. Totally recommend this book and 5* read all the way!!! -FMR Book Grind

4.5 Stars!
Kristin Vayden is a brand new author for me and if her writing is anything like this book then she has gained a new fan in me. This book was fantastic and adorable. This book made me laugh, swoon, giggle, and blush the entire time. The One was an amazing story about one woman and one man who will find their forever and the one with each other.
This book was so so so good. When I finished, I had a big ol' smile on my face. The angst... the drama... the build-up... it was all worth it for these two. This was a second chance romance of sorts... and boy was it one that was well deserved. The One was a fast read that was quirky, humorous, sexy, sweet, passionate, and completely captivating.
This is Meredith's journey to finding her... ONE in the most unconventional yet intriguing way possible. Meredith is on an assignment per her best friend/boss. For the blog, she dates different "types" of guys and writes about her experience. They are typical stereotypes and she finds in that it is not all that it is cracked up to be..... until the next.
Since all have been complete washes and just as she is about to give up, she gets the chance of a lifetime that she just cannot pass up. The last two on her list, the stepbrother and the millionaire, send her to Scotland and that is when things get really complicated. There Meredith finds something she never expected.... a blast from her past.
Get ready for lots of laughs and tons of fun. This book did not move slowly and picked up from the very start. I was hooked by the end of the first chapter and once the storyline really got going, I was hooked and racing towards that happy ending. And our Scottish gent, Kirby... well he is gonna make the ladies swoon and fall head over heels in love.
I highly recommend this book.

Let me start off by saying I was completely blown away by Kristin Vayden’s The One! This beautiful and hilarious story is a must read!
In The One we are introduced to Meredith, a young woman who works with her best friend Roxi on a very popular blog. When Roxi tell Meredith of a poll that she has taken with her followers she needs Meredith’s help with the following through on which type of guy holds the most sex appeal. With the followers being undecided Roxi needs Meredith to report back the dates that she will be set up on with The Jock, The Rock Star, The Alpha male, The Millionaire and The Stepbrother, also hoping that Meredith may happen to stumble along the one in the process.
As Meredith reports on her dates, some good and some just out right hilarious. Roxi informs her that she will need to go to Scotland to follow through with her last two dates. Meredith is thrilled with an all expense paid work trip to Scotland but it’s who picks her up at the airport that shocks her.
Kirby or Church as he prefers to be called now is Roxi’s step brother and grew up with Meredith; the two have always been at odds and are shocked find out that they will be spending some time together dating. Laugh out loud banter, beautiful tour of Scotland and lots of surprises along the way The One is a beautiful and romantic story that warms the heart. Merry and Kirby’s sizzling chemistry is off the charts and make for very memorable and lovable characters.
Kristin Vayden has an amazing ability to transport you from the comfort of your own home, (or wherever you are reading) to the beautiful sights and wonders of Scotland. ( I’m seriously and dying to go to Scotland now)
I cannot tell you as to how much I enjoyed this book and I recommend everyone read this!

The One by Kristin Vayden is a quirky romantic comedy that has the main character jumping from man to man to test the waters of different types of men for the sake of her friend’s blog. She goes through the bad boy, the jock, the musician, the millionaire, and finally the step brother (not hers). Throw in a few twists and turs, and you have an enjoyable story.
Meredith works with and for her best friend as partner and CPA of one of the biggest blogs on the planet, and now Roxy wants to run an experiment and Meredith is the guinea pig. Going through the men on the list one by one, each one leads to disappointment until she finds herself in Scotland and things are suddenly looking up. However, when she realizes the stepbrother is her childhood nemesis and Roxy’s very own stepbrother, things look as if they are about to go downhill.
Kirby hates his name and says he hates Meredith as well, but they why does he want her so much? And what exactly is Roxy holding over his head?
There were a few inconsistencies that were hopefully caught during final edits and the ending seemed a little rushed, but other than that, the story is enjoyable and at times had me giggling. Ever have one of those friends that can convince you to do almost anything? That is exactly Meredith and Roxy’s relationship and the start of Meredith’s troubles. I laughed. I give the book 3.5 stars and recommend it to everyone. I truly hope the author writes Roxy’s story as well.

The One is a sexy humorous stand-alone novel.
I would give it a 3.5 stars and recommend to others.
This is the first book I have read by this author but I find myself curious for more from her.
The setting of this book kept me intrigued because who wouldn't wanna know what its like to date all different types of men before selecting what would be best for yourself.

I read a lot, and these days a book has to really grab me in the first couple of pages, to keep my interest, I got to maybe the second paragraph of the book and knew just knew, I was going to be in for a treat. So I am thinking we are in the same league here where , we have found our different types of book boyfriends we love, well Merry had to go on a date with the Jock, Rocker, Biker, Millionaire and Stepbrother. Oh my goodness me I was in absolute stitches of laughing when she was dating the first 3, far out it was funny!!!!! Next our Millionaire douche, enough said on that one, we then come to our Stepbrother Kirby, he is not Merry's stepbrother people, he is Roxi's stepbrother, Merry's business partner and best friend of their Blog.
Kirby and Merry were sworn enemies from growing up, doing so many pranks on each other and mean to each other. Move forward a lot of years and these two together just work, their banter is hilarious!!!! Even through their banter at each other, I could feel love seeping through it was awesome. If you are looking for a light hearted, funny, no drama kind of read this one is for you, you won't regret it. Reviewed for HeadTripping Books by Carolyn.

** Provided on behalf of the author for an honest review **
Meredith has been unlucky in love. That’s why her best friend Roxi, who together run an extremely successful blog, decides on Meredith’s next task. One that will surely get their followers reaching into the millions.
Every girl has the idea of the perfect man. What if Roxi took a poll and worked out what the top five ideal men would be, and send Meredith on dates with them? It’s sounds crazy enough to work!!
Her first three dates are horrible, if not hilarious, and had me laughing out loud.
For her final two dates, Meredith must fly to Scotland to meet her millionaire, and a stepbrother. What Roxi fails to mention is that the stepbrother is hers, and Meredith and Kirby have never really got along.
Will Meredith find her happily ever after?
And with who?
I found this a really fun book to read. I thoroughly enjoyed it from beginning to end. A nice light, easy read.
An amazing 5 star read.

This one grabbed me from the beginning, with its totally new and fresh storyline, and I loved the LOL moments, as well as the touching heart to hearts. Meredith takes one for the team, and does a sort of speed dating challenge for her job, and thrusts herself into some hilarious situations to find “the one”.
Based in Scotland, Meredith comes face to face with her childhood “nemesis” Kirby. It was a secret boy likes girl, girl likes boy situation where they both denied their affections, and in return, tortured each other. Totally hilarious moments between these two ensue, and you will be cracking up at the back and forth banter and sometimes-awkward tries at flirting.
Another great read from Kristin, and if you’re looking for a lighthearted, feel good story, look no further! I love it when a story has all the feels; comedy, romance, and in this case, a sexy yet sometimes annoying Scotsman!

This is my first book by Kristin Vayden and I must say that I will be keeping an eye out for more by her. This book was highly entertaining especially the crazy dates she ends up on and the banter between Meredith and Kirby. This book was a light hearted and sweet, it was a nice change from all the dark reads I've been reading lately.
Meredith gets stuck going on dates with several guys to see how it would be to date guys that woman are attracted to. For instance, the sports star, the alpha, the musician etc. These dates are not what they are cracked up to be and lead to some hilarious moments. The last two send her to Scotland where she meets one that really throws her and one that she has history with and can't stand.
I loved the crazy relationship between Kirby and Meredith. You can feel the crazy sexual tension the two have but they don't get along at all and it makes for some fun times.
