Mason James

Heartbreakers & Heroes, Volume 2

By: Ciana Stone

Narrated by: Rhett Samuel Price

There's just something about a man who can dance, and Mason James has the kind of moves that turn a woman's thoughts to what that body of his could do off the dance floor. Mason's been breaking hearts so long it's part of his nature. There's not a woman he can't seduce.

When he shows up in Cotton Creek, the women perk right up and take a sudden interest in dance lessons. No one realizes that teaching dancing is as far from the truth of who he really is as it gets.

In all honesty, he's not sure what he is anymore. He came back to Cotton Creek because it's the only real home he's ever known. He didn't expect to like it and sure didn't expect to have a baby left on his doorstep or to meet someone who made him wonder if it wasn't time he stopped letting women chase him and do some chasing of his own.

Beautiful Story

I got this ARC via audiobook boom and this is my voluntary review. This was one well written and narrated story. Just a smidgen of sex which was just enough. The story was the star of the show. All of the characters added to the story and brought it to life. Loved the daughter's dedication to he dad. too often events like this happen. Leaders we think are honorable turn out to be rotten to the core. So glad they found their HEA.

Unexpected Parenthood

Mason has come home, retired and starting a new life, as a dance instructor. Savannah is a writer with an amazing talent and a past that is hard. Two hearts find healing together and an unexpected arrival brings them even closer. The narrator is amazing and you can visualize the dirty dancing.

Great Read

Mason James was a great book by Ciana Stone. This is book two in the Heartbreakers & Heroes series. Mason has dance moves that all the women in their town want. No one knows that dance isn't the only thing to Mason. A baby is left on his doorstep and he doesn't know what to do. Fortunately for him, he has Savannah to help him. I absolutely loved reading Mason and Savannah's story and can't wait to read more in this series.

Great Story

Mason James is great story . Dancing, danger, and heat. I enjoyed this story I would definitely recommend it. looking forward to the next story

A lot of angst and drama in this romance..........

Mason James is the second book in this series, but I have not read book one, and I had no difficulty following the story. This book is definitely a high angst and high drama romance, but it is still very entertaining if you don't mind a tug or twenty on the heartstrings. Mason James appears to be a gorgeous bad boy who is working in Cotton Creek as a dance instructor. Of course, with that description, you can imagine that every woman in town is lusting after him. However, he is pretty aloof from the attention, and the author keeps hinting at some dark and mysterious past for him. When he meets Savannah and begins giving her dancing lessons, the spark between the two is instantaneous. Savannah is an incredibly successful career woman; after building and selling several health spas, she is now a romance writer. She has come to Cotton Creek to stay with friends and write a collaboration with a famous local author. Like Mason, Savannah has many secrets of her own, and it truly broke my heart listening to her tragic past once it is revealed. For all of his appearance to the contrary, Mason is a deeply caring, responsible, trustworthy man, and all of these strengths are just intensified once the author finally tells us his true history. This story will bring some tears, but it just makes the HEA that more satisfying in the end.

Rhett Samuel Price is an amazing narrator, and he does his usual excellent job with this book. He differentiates very well between characters, and he adds the perfect level of emotion. It takes a talented narrator to handle highly emotional scenes well, and Price is terrific with Savannah's voice when she is crying and getting upset. Luckily, there are plenty of happy and sensual scenes as well, and Price is the perfect choice with his deep, velvety voice.

I received a copy of this audiobook at my request in exchange for this honest review.

Mason and Savannah Have Moves

Couldn’t put this one down! Wow! I read the first book in this series -Heartbreakers and Heroes - and knew I needed to read more. Mason James did not disappoint. You can read the excerpts to see what it’s about. This book is a page turner! I needed to know what was going to happen next. There were a number of twist and turns that took me by surprise as well. Excellent read!
I read this story when it first came out (review above), but I am now listening to the series. It’s been a while and things have slipped my mind about specifics in the story and listening brings all my emotions out again. Mason and Savannah are great together. Wonderful story. Rhett Samuel Price did justice to the various characters. I wasn’t expecting Mr. Price and am still get-ting used to his read.

Starting Over in Cotton Creek

Mason James, Cotton Creek's example of Dirty Dancing, has returned to the area to start his next life as a dance instructor and leather business.
Savannah has moved to Cotton Creek to recover from a failed marriage and to continue her romance writing career.
Savannah and Mason connect over dance lessons. They share stories from their past as a baby arrives on Mason's door step. A very fast paced romance begins.....
This fast paced romance brought me to tears, made me laugh and feel deep emotion. It also brought steamy romance scenes and danger and excitement.
Another winner from Ciana Stone!

Clean romance heart-wrenching and heartwarming

Both author and narrator are new to me and were top-notch. This story is well developed and written. Mason isn't the playboy that at first you may think he is. He is a caring and loving man who has a secret. Savannah had horribly abusive childhood, but her father was the only one that she could count on. She comes to this small town to try to move on after a loveless marriage. She is smitten when she sees Mason dancing with his heartwarming Dirty Dancing moves. However, she doesn't feel that she could ever be good enough for such a handsome and sexy man like Mason. She doesn't realize that she has caught his eye, too. I love how as this story plays out, they both begin to share their pasts which only strengthens their love. This is a wonderful story that has some angsty moments towards the end.

The narrator does an outstanding job of portraying the emotions and making the listener experience them. He gives the characters their own distinctive voices.I highly recommend this clean Audible book for your listening pleasure.

Mason💘Savannah! Great Story, Great Audible Listen🎧

I loved this story it is well written and well told. The storylines Ciana Stone created are interesting and captivated me from start to end. Her characters are complex and well developed. Savannah, a successful author and business owner has not had an easy life, from a horrible childhood to a loveless marriage. She relocates to Cotton Creek to work with another author and have a fresh start. She likes what she sees there. especially Mason James, the hot dance instructor and an overall nice guy. But she thinks he is out of her league but Mason James thinks otherwise. I loved the chemistry between the two and how good they were for each other. Their story offers so much, from her heartbreaking history to who he really is. There are surprises, twists, drama, suspense and hot romance! I highly recommend this book! Ciana Stone thank your for the great story. I will be checking out the rest of your Heartbreakers & Heroes series and become a resident at Cotton Creek for a while.


I listened to the Audible edition, Rhett Samuel Price is a wonderful narrator and voice performer. He brings the characters to life, gives each their own voice and personality. He is an entertaining storyteller and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for this great listen🎧
