Description
After a courtroom gunman threatens everything he holds dear, a Texas Ranger with a checkered past must choose between vengeance and family in this #1 New York Times bestselling thriller.
"A masterful storyteller, carefully crafting tales that keep readers on the edge of their seats." —USA Today
Crawford Hunt wants his daughter back. Following the death of his wife four years ago, he fell into a downward spiral that knocked him down to deskwork and landed his five-year-old daughter Georgia in the custody of her grandparents. But now that Crawford has cleaned up his act and met the court's requirements, the fate of his family lies with Judge Holly Spencer.
Holly, ambitious and confident, must prove herself worthy of a permanent judgeship on the cusp of an upcoming election. Every decision is high-stakes, and despite Crawford's commitment to being a better father, Holly is wary of his past. But when a masked gunman barges into the courtroom during the custody hearing, Crawford reacts instinctively to save Holly's life.
But his heroism soon takes on the taint of recklessness. With the gunman still at large, Crawford uncovers a horrifying truth, and the cloud over him grows even darker as he considers vengeance. He quickly realizes that pursuing the killer will jeopardize his chances of gaining custody of his daughter and compromise Holly, 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 novel about the powerful ties that bind us to the ones we love and the secrets we keep to protect them.

1By TW110257I absolutely love Sandra Brown and every book I've read of hers but this one was a good sleep aid. Very slow, no suspense, characters were flat. Wouldn't recommend.Friction
5By Canny sueAwesome book. Sandra never disappoints!Great book
5By Joeygirl1980I loved this book. It was a great read. This is the first book I have read by this author. Can wait to try more.So-so read
3By Honoree 7477I've been a fan of Sandra Brown for a long time, but her past few books, including this one, have been disappointing. Her graphic sex scenes, and in particular her graphic sex dialogue are almost laughable. Who talks that way? I'm certainly no prude, but some of her phrases literally make me roll my eyes. Friction was a decent enough murder mystery, but probably my last book by Ms. Brown.Sandra at her best
5By LakewacoReally good book. Suspenseful, intrigue, ups & downs. Typical Sandra novel with bedroom scenes, multiple bad guy choices and cop chases. Was really hard to put down from page 1. Highly recommend.Friction
5By Denio64A good story, with surprising twists and the sex, purely feminine, was all top notch. Author is more of a volume writer than a researched, get it right type. So easy read, not thought provoking. So I'll just read on and relax. Thank you for not keeping me up at night😎...Great book
5By Momzilla22461Had fun reading this book. Kept my attention. Characters are sexy and fearsome.Friction
5By PushpushStableAs expected, this is another gripping suspense by a master of the genre. Holds everything the reader requires...mystery, murder, fast-paced action, and a spicy romance. Allow plenty of time off for reading since you'll not want to close the book til the final page.Sexy, suspenseful, fun.
5By CassidyBCBGGood read!
