Publisher's summary

We were childhood friends, me and the boy who would grow up to become Hollywood's hottest star.

When I was six, I fell for him at the bus stop. When I was 15, he moved away, taking my heart with him. When I was 24, he came back for me, even though I didn't want him. The nine years we spent apart, I tried like hell to fill the void. Apparently, so did he. Instead of being addicted to me, he became addicted to women, drugs, and money. So when he showed up on my doorstep offering me everything I'd ever dreamed of, him, I couldn't help but think of the age-old idiom: Be careful what you wish for.

Don't wait another minute to start listening to this sexy romance.

Note to listener: This series can easily be enjoyed out of order. Stone Promises can be heard as a stand-alone novel. It is the second audiobook in a series that follows three brothers.

Love this series

Samantha, once again your stories keep me happy and routing for the good guys. Oh and the gals too!!!

THIS! Stone Promises (book 2 of 3 series)

Could not put this book (and the others down). Romantic series with twist and turns, and adventure. Sexy! The author Samantha Christy does a phenomenal job linking all the characters from book to book, series to series while portraying their independent stories. Very well done.
My girl friends and I started a book club on this author alone. Serious talent.

Great story

Love the narration. Excellent story. One of my new favorites. Like that he had to pursue Mallory and she just didn’t jump in because of his celebrity or her feelings. Liked that she was guarded.

A SWEET SECOND CHANCES LOVE STORY

For me, Samantha Christy is fast becoming an auto download author.. ok I’ve only listened to two of her books.. but within those two books she gave me the perfect mix of all I wanted. She captivated me with this dual POV story about best friends whose lives took very different paths. She enthralled me as her heroine Mallory accidentally meets a now famous estranged old friend and struggles with herself to give him a second chance because his drugs, women and partying lifestyle had torn them apart years previously. She entertained me as Thad the handsome A list actor couldn’t believe his luck when a chance encounter brings ‘the one’ back into his life. But he’d messed up big in the past so he had to tread very very carefully, hold on tight and fight hard for the woman he’d always been in love with.

Teacher Mallory first squirms when asked on a date by Thad the Hollywood Superstar.. but, when she sees he’s still just Chad her once loyal best friend, Mallory starts to forgive, trust, settle down and let herself open up to hope and possibilities with Thad/Chad. Samantha Christy doesn’t take a wrong step as she navigates two people’s very different lives, reacquaints old friends, rekindles a love that had once blossomed but had never got the chance to grow, merges families and friends, throws in a wrench or two.. and writes a love story about chemistry, soul mates and second chances. With great secondary characters too.

Worth a credit? Yes definitely. This second slice of the Stone Brothers cake didn’t disappoint.. in fact it whets your appetite for more. These handsome sexy Stone brothers meet strong-minded heroines who don’t just fall into their laps like all the rest.. but, as the storylines heat up, sizzle and simmer.. love leads the couples to their HEA’s. Great narration brings the characters, the feels and the action to life.

What a story!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Great Series so far and this story was awesome so many emotions and thrilling heart pumping scenes. Luv stories with a female villain (Witch with a capital B) lol didn’t want to say a curse word so used Villain instead. Love these characters can’t wait for the others brothers story “Kyle” I think was his name 😉

Childhood friends to lovers

Mallory and Chad were best friends for a large part of their childhood, up until Chad’s family moved away and she never heard from him again. They had this deep love that they never got to explore but also never got rid of. Mallory has become a teacher while Chad has become a movie star with a lot of drugs and girls along the way. When they see each other again by chance, Chad takes it as a sign that he can’t let her go again. He makes it his mission to make Mallory his, and at first she is skeptical of how it all can work. The larger part of this story is much lighter and just a sweet uplifting love story. It isn’t until the end where things get a little grittier and complicated. Chad’s celebrity status and the people in his life threaten to ruin everything he has worked for. Can Chad and Mallory overcome this obstacle? Again, the narration in this book was absolutely perfect! Erin and Jason together are powerful!

✫✫ 4.5 Stars ✫✫

I am loving this series! Book 1 was my first by this author and I knew that I had to listen to book 2 as soon as it came out. I absolutely love a friends to lovers story and this one was years in the making which made it even better for me. Mallory & Chad really were a perfect complement to each other. The famous & rich actor with the normal school teacher, I knew then that this would be exactly what I wanted in this book. I really enjoy this authors writing and her characters are all great. I can't wait to see who's book is next!

The narration was perfect!! Jason Clarke is always great, especially when he is narrating a good guy! Erin Mallon is a narrator Goddess in my book! She can narrate anything and I'd listen. Putting these two together in one audiobook is explosive!!!

Awesome narrators reading a great book

I loved this book when I read it, but add in 2 amazing narrators and a whole new level of awesome is added. I love the dynamic between the characters brought to life by Jason and Erin. Such a great story!

Interesting

Good listen if you have nothing else to listen too. First one was more detailed.

Absolutely awesome!

First off, Jason Clarke and Erin Mallon did a fantastic job with narration as they always do!

This book was really just so great. Childhood friends. Life took them separate ways. Movie star and school teacher. Emotional and rough reunion, but obviously meant to be. Throw in a little "suspense" (for lack of a better word I can think of) later on in the book. Really thats giving away too much to the story already.

I will say, though, those last 30 minutes of the book had me screaming for a minute. Aggh...

But great book! Well worth the cost or credit. Can't wait to get the next one!
