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 twenty-four-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.

When 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…

Ratings and reviews

Love, love, love a good friends to lovers story! Charity and Dustin had slightly started blurring the lines before they ended up fake dating. The chemistry between them couldn’t be contained, and they were both pretty laid back about it. But as things went on, and the real feelings developed, they both held back a bit, until they didn’t. Lots of Stone family interactions, and a new Stone added, and an old Stone brought back into the fold.

Absolutely loverly to read couldn't put any of these books down read nearly 4 books in a week end thank you hugs to you stay safe x.

Audiobook Review: Overall–5 Performance–5 Story–5 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 HEA.
