Friction

By: Sandra Brown

Narrated by: Stephen Lang

From a New York Times bestselling author, a Texas Ranger with a checkered past must choose between vengeance and family.

Crawford Hunt lost custody of his daughter after his wife died four years ago, following a downward spiral. Now that he's cleaned up his act, he wants her back. His family's fate lies in the hands of Judge Holly Spencer. Holly must prove herself worthy of a permanent judgeship on the cusp of an upcoming election. Every decision is high-stakes, and Holly is wary of Crawford's past–until he saves her from a masked gunman.

With the gunman still at large, Crawford uncovers a horrifying truth, leading him to seek vengeance and compromise his chance of regaining custody of his daughter. Now, Holly needs protection not only from an assassin, but from Crawford himself as a forbidden attraction grows between them.

Friction keeps you on the edge of your seat–it's a novel about the powerful ties that bind us to those we love and the secrets we keep to protect them.

Where does Friction rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
If you are a long time fan of S.B. as I am, you will recognize her classic romance/mystery stye of writing in this story. This is not her best, but it will not disappoint. As always, S.B. has a last minute twist before the story ends.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Friction?
When Crawford has any dialogue with Georgia. She will grab your heart.

What does Stephen Lang bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
My fave readers are Victor Slezak, and Jonathan Davis. Check out their reads of S.B. works. Natalie Ross, Enid Graham ,and Stephen do a good job so don’t miss out on their SB reads. Stephen did bring our hero to life as he is a good actor and can read well. Get Sting as he is outstanding in it.

Any additional comments?
If you like this story, see Sandra Brown's Stand Off, Smoke Screen, and newest best, Mean Streak. These are not to be missed.
