A Rancher's Vow

The Stones of Heart Falls, Book 5

By: Vivian Arend

Narrated by: Tatiana Sokolov

The final stand-alone story in the Stones of Heart Falls series by New York Times best-selling author Vivian Arend.

Ten billionaire cowboy bachelors you need to meet! #SilverStoneStud

Do what’s right, no matter what, is a lesson Charity Gruzing learned from her beloved grandma and older sister. Which means although her appreciation for her friend Dustin Stone is high, she knows he’s not for her. She’s barely making ends meet, he’s one of the Heart Falls elite. She works in the Silver Stone office, he’s one of the ranch owners. Friends is the only option.

When a click-bait article names 24-year-old Dustin as one of the country’s “most eligible billionaire bachelors”, it doesn’t take long for the curious and the annoying to arrive at Silver Stone ranch. As the youngest of the Stone siblings, Dustin’s determined to be there for his family the way they’ve always been there for him.

Dustin offers to get out of Heart Falls to allow the billionaire fever and viral online storm to die down. Charity ends up along for the ride, and friends become friends with benefits. Suddenly she’s his pretend girlfriend, and it’s everything she’s ever dreamed of—only it’s not real. Maybe, just maybe, she’ll get to the end of the deception without her heart being broken.

Except it’s not her heart that’s in danger....

Sexy and sweet!

I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the books in this series and I’m sorry to see it end. However, I know that there are more great books by Vivian Arend for me to listen to.

There was a bit of suspense and mystery in this story. My heart was hurting a bit when something happened that I wasn’t expecting. Dustin and Charity went from friends to fake boyfriend/girlfriend to friends with benefits and finally getting their well deserved HEA.

Tatiana Sokolov did another great job performing this audiobook.

Enjoyed

Enjoyed listening and really like the readers and the story continuation in the series. Hope she continues on with this series.

Bachelor No More

The youngest of the Stone family Dustin and Charity friends to so much more is exciting, sweet, and full of emotion. It was great seeing Uncle Frank finally shedding his gruffness towards the family, with Charity’s sweet direct self, she fits into the family perfectly. I’ll miss the Stones but can’t wait to see more from these small town Ranchers around Heart Falls.

Great story! Loved it!

I really enjoyed this one! It pulled me in from beginning to end and held my attention the entire time. I loved getting to see Dustin find his love and being open to it after watching the rest of his family find and fall in love. Dustin and Charity have been friends and due to the click bait article that Dustin is caught up in, they are now fake dating and in close quarters. Charity has liked Dustin and hoping to take it past friendship for awhile and this ends up giving a great opportunity for that to happen. I loved how these two communicated throughout the story! It really worked for me and I adored it. It made them so adorable and I loved how they worked through what was put in front of them. I had a lot of fun reading this story and am sad that this is the last one in the Stones of Heart Falls series, I can't wait for the next spin off, Skyes of Heart Falls.
The narrator did a great job with the story and bringing it to life.

Hot Ranchers

Great story for the youngest brother. Small amount of angst and turning a playboy into a romantic lover. Finding the right girl can turn the hardest heart. Love this family!
