Publisher's summary

Stories from the Range: Book One

After a year in medical school, Dakota Holden returned home to take care of the family business full time and help his father cope with multiple sclerosis. Devoted to his family, Dakota allows himself just one week of vacation a year, which he spends in some exotic location having all the fun he can stand. On his last vacation, a cruise, Dakota struck up a friendship with Phillip Reardon, and it fills an important role in Dakota’s life.

So when Phillip decides to take Dakota up on his invitation to visit the ranch, Dakota is happy to see him and meet his veterinarian friend, Wally Schumacher. Despite Wally’s inclination to help the wolves Dakota’s men shoot to protect the cattle, he and Dakota find they have a lot in common, including a fierce attraction. But they’ll have to decide if the Wyoming range is big enough for Dakota’s cattle, Wally’s wolves, and their love.

...Maybe better Read than Heard

The voices assigned to the main characters should be switched. This one aspect of the narration made this book most difficult to finish.

Shame of about the narrator

The story was good but I am not sure why the narrator interpreted Dakota's character as speaking with the voice of a 5 year old girl. As much as I would like to listen to the rest of the series I am not sure I could tolerate another Dakota voice. It's odd because all the other characters are fine and Dakota seems to only slip in and out of this voice especially during sex which is just creepy and weird.

Better to Read than listen to...

The story was cute but the narrator's voice choice for Dakota made my teeth grind and I had to fight the urge to stop listening because of it.

Good story. Okay narration.

Interesting characters. Decent plot development. Appreciated the wolves' story worked into the plot. The narrator didn't quite seem to suit the characters though.

Pretty good story. Poor narration

The story is sweet, but uneven. For example two of the main characters are in the car heading west on vacation. They run into a huge tornado large enough to level houses and move cars and they are caught in the middle of it under an overpass. You'd think something that horrific would be part of the plot, or part of the character development, but it never went anywhere. It was never mentioned again except to say to their friends that they were in a tornado on their way out west.

The worst of the book is the narration. I feel Mr. Gelder never read the book before he narrated it. It is very clear the author expected the main character, Dakota to have a "deep, raspy voice". It's actually part of the story line. But Mr Gelder decided on a high, whiny voice instead. Dakota is a muscular ranch owner. I really didn't want to have his voice be wimpy. Major disappointment. The object of Dakota's affection is a slight, young man. Gelder decided to give him the deeper voice. The women's voices and Dakota's voices are indistinguishable. And most everyone has some odd accent that I can't quite place.

I think this may be a book better read than listened to.

Missed Many Marks For Me

Where do I begin? Well, the story felt unnatural, kind of contrived. I finally stopped listening when out of the blue, a very minor character suddenly announces his homosexuality out of nowhere for really no good reason that has anything to do with anything in a strange attempt to add drama, where none was really needed. I had great sympathy for the protagonist wanting to take care of his sick father, but by dropping out of medical school? Really?? Does the author know how incredibly difficult it is to get into medical school and how incredibly proud his father would be to have his son complete that arduous journey not to mention he deprived some poor soul of that spot in his class? Disgusting actually.

The narration was confusing to me, trying to add accents and inflections that never made any sense to me not to mention his attempts to do female voices was very poor. Then there's the road trip with the sudden appearance of Wally with Phillip. The details of their trip out west was pointless and boring, just as it would be pointless and boring for me to go on. I might try one more Andrew Grey story in the future, but with no expectations.

Probably Andrew Grey's Best

I loved this book! After reading almost all of Andrew Grey's "Love Means..." series, which all follow a similar storyline and the same setting, it is a refreshing change. The characters are likeable and the story is easy to follow. I can't wait to listen again!

I have all 7 books and they are just great

I love the characters, I love the fact that there are 7 books. Of course Andrew Grey's books are all great. As a gay man I find these fun and relaxing, a way for me to enjoy some fantasying's world. It has a lot to do with men coming with grips of there gayness, and their need for loving and being loved. The world has changed and it is a good thing that it has.
