My One and Only Book 1 in the Love and Weddings Trilogy edition by Shannon Guymon Contemporary Romance eBooks
First off, readers should have been told up front that this is like book 10 in a series of books about a group of characters in fictional Fir Crest, Washington. By calling it Book 1, it seems like it should be a stand alone, or the first of a series, but it's really not. There are so many references to past relationships and previous books that It doesn't truly stand alone. It may be Meredith and Asher's story, but it's also about a busload of other background characters too numerous (and too unexplained) to care about. I just couldn't care anymore. It's also made clear that Asher and Meredith are the cast offs of previous stories, not just losers in love, but the ones you rooted against or "total brats" (author's words). Who wants a story about the rejected bad guys/outcasts from two previous series? Not me. I tried to read it multiple times but just couldn't get into it. I did not read the whole book. P.S. I have been a Shannon Guymon fan but I now I'm rooting for Fir Crest to be consumed in a forest fire so we can all move on!

My One and Only Book 1 in the Love and Weddings Trilogy edition by Shannon Guymon Contemporary Romance eBooks Reviews
There were some nice elements to the story, but if you haven't read the whole series, this book is very confusing.
Too many of the characters were just brought over from a previous book and/or books, and the backgrounds were never explained. It makes it hard to know exactly why people don't want to let go of a feud when you don't know why they were mad at each other in the first place.
The characters were very dramatic, but if you look past the above mentioned problem, it was an easy read.
Another good quick romance to read when you’re feeling down. This story is set in Fircrest, Washington (like many other stories by this author. I don't know if it's a fictional town or what, but I want to live there--hee hee). There are many side characters in this that have their own books I’ve read earlier. Meredith, Asher and Pule are the three characters in this romance. Meredith isn’t looking for love. She’s loved twice and crashed and burned both times. But she’s struggling to make ends meet and when she runs an idea by her friend, Asher, about an online dating site, he’s all into it and determined to become partners with her. This has fun characters, lots of good romantic tension as insecurities and fears comes into play and hope and faith have to be utilized to build a happy future.
I think this book missed the Mark just a little. I thought the two main characters didn't interact with each other enough. Also seem to be a part a lot over misunderstandings. I wanted to see them go out & date & have fun. I guess I just wanted more romance(clean). It was fun seeing other characters from previous books....even though I still haven't all of them. I am still glad I read it. I would recommend if you are going to read this author & haven't in the past I would probably read 'Do Over' or start with the Love & Trust series.
This is the fourth trilogy that takes place in Fircrest, WA and by now, I really feel that these characters are my friends. The characters come and go throughout each of the books and I love seeing them beyond their stories.
I have to admit, I didn't like Meredith or Asher much in previous books, but getting to know them better and watching their transformations changed my mind about their characters.
Meredith is a very strong willed woman and she throws everything she has into relationships, whether it be friendships or romances. It's all or nothing with her and because of that, she leaves herself wide open to being hurt and finds herself being very cautious. Asher is similar in many ways, but he's not one to hold back. When he sees something he wants, he goes for it. He puts on such a bad boy front, but I love how the Matafeo men can make him cower.
Meredith and Asher team up with a friend to form an online dating site and I loved learning more about it. The ideas are so creative and the new characters introduced are intriguing. I really enjoyed that aspect of the story, along with the humor. There were some misunderstandings that had me feeling terrible for a character, yet they were pretty funny. As usual, the clean romance is always my favorite part! I loved the references to music and the ending was absolutely perfect for the story.
Content no language; no religious elements; no violence; mild romance (kissing). Clean!
I do enjoy Ms. Guymon's books. Can't remember which of her others I've read but I'm a fan when I do!
I like Meredith, no lie. She is stubborn and in her own way of love. She has a good reason. She's protecting her heart. I get this heroine.
Asher is easy to like and so is Pule, though for me the triangle didn't last long. I was team Asher from the beginning. I would like Pule to get his own HEA (happily ever after.) As its a series, I bet he will, and she'll be awesome.
All the wonderful emotional roller coaster ride elements are here, along with wit, and description that gives the message without being lengthy. Well-written, unexpected plot twists, and hard to put down are part of Ms. Guymon's hallmark. Clean and wholesome through and through.
Grab a copy, and the rest of the series.
This is the first book in the series, but it's really not. There have obviously been other books in Firecrest, and by the number of other characters we were supposed to know, there have been a lot of them. Many issues from other previous books were brought into this one. I think I kind of caught on to what had happened in the past. At least some of it. Not knowing made this book harder to enjoy. I'm not even sure where the Firecrest books start. It seems that there are several series set there. I wish the author had kept them all in one series.
It sounds like Meredith and Asher were both characters that readers wouldn't have liked in other books. I really liked Asher in this one, but I didn't like Meredith. She was awful to Asher! She describes her previous self as a brat, and I didn't feel like she'd lost that status. Maybe I would have felt differently if I had read the earlier books in the "series."
