A Rancher's Bride — Vivian Arend

Welcome to Heart Falls, where there's more at stake than the future of the Silver Stone ranch.

A standalone novel by New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend.

With the ranch teetering on the brink of disaster, accepting an invitation to the gala of the year is a top business priority for Luke Stone. Having a significant other on his arm isn't merely a good idea, it's a necessity. Doesn't matter that he's currently single -- there's a logical solution. Kelli is easy company, a vital part of ranch operations, and willing to sing Silver Stone's praises all day long. She'll be perfect.

Kelli James has kept a lot of secrets over the eight years since she boldly walked onto the ranch. Her biggest challenge, though, has been hiding her crush on the sexiest cowboy she's ever laid eyes on. When Luke informs her they're headed to the mountains for a week-long, work-related event, she's not sure what to expect.

That he signed her up to play the part of the perfect rancher's bride-to-be wasn't it…
