Publisher's summary

Friction: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!

From number-one New York Times best-selling author Sandra Brown comes a gripping story of family ties and forbidden attraction.

Crawford Hunt wants his daughter back. Following the death of his wife four years ago, Crawford, a Texas Ranger, fell into a downward spiral that left him relegated to deskwork and with his five-year-old daughter Georgia in the custody of her grandparents. But Crawford has cleaned up his act, met all the court imposed requirements, and now the fate of his family lies with Judge Holly Spencer.

Holly, ambitious and confident, temporarily occupies the bench of her recently deceased mentor. With an election upcoming, she must prove herself worthy of making her judgeship permanent. Every decision is high-stakes. Despite Crawford's obvious love for his child and his commitment to being an ideal parent, Holly is wary of his checkered past. Her opinion of him is radically changed when a masked gunman barges into the courtroom during the custody hearing. Crawford reacts instinctually, saving Holly from a bullet.

But his heroism soon takes on the taint of recklessness. The cloud over him grows even darker after he uncovers a horrifying truth about the courtroom gunman and realizes that the unknown person behind the shooting remains at large...and a threat.

Catching the real culprit becomes a personal fight for Crawford. But pursuing the killer in his customary diehard fashion will jeopardize his chances of gaining custody of his daughter, and further compromise Judge Holly Spencer, who needs protection not only from an assassin, but from Crawford himself and the forbidden attraction between them.

Friction will keep you on the edge of your seat with breathtaking plot twists and the unforgettable characters that make Sandra Brown one of the world's best-loved authors. It is an extraordinary audiobook about the powerful ties that bind us to the ones we love and the secrets we keep to protect them.

Booktrack is an immersive format that pairs traditional audiobook narration to complementary music. The tempo and rhythm of the score are in perfect harmony with the action and characters throughout the audiobook. Gently playing in the background, the music never overpowers or distracts from the narration, so listeners can enjoy every minute. When you purchase this Booktrack edition, you receive the exact narration as the traditional audiobook available, with the addition of music throughout.

Great author.

As usual, Sandra Brown has written another great novel. Her ability to always interject a sexual content without being crude is masterful. The issue I have with this audio is the producer. The decision to add background melancholy music throughout was terrible and disruptive.

Background music

I'm not sure why other reviewers were so critical of the background music. I almost didn't purchase this book based on those reviews. I rather enjoyed it. For the most part, I didn't notice the music. I think it enhanced the reading when I became aware of it. I would highly recommend this audible version.

Background music is distracting

Not sure why they thought music on top of narration would be a good idea, but this version is really distracting and I wish I could get my money back and get a regular version without the music.

Music is not good for a book

I could understand if the book was about music then it would be appropriate but it’s not and it’s too distracting. You don’t need the music to try to tell someone if they’re getting to a suspenseful part. I loved the actual book but I wish I could have got one without the musical background noise.
