Publisher's Summary

See Me: Booktrack Edition adds an immersive musical soundtrack to your audiobook listening experience!*

A powerful love story fueled with taut suspense, about an instant connection between two people who are both trying to escape the past, from number one New York Times best-selling author Nicholas Sparks.

See me just as I see you....

Colin Hancock is giving his second chance his best shot. With a history of violence and bad decisions behind him and the threat of prison dogging his every step, he's determined to walk a straight line. To Colin, that means applying himself single-mindedly toward his teaching degree and avoiding everything that proved destructive in his earlier life. Reminding himself daily of his hard-earned lessons, the last thing he is looking for is a serious relationship.

Maria Sanchez, the hardworking daughter of Mexican immigrants, is the picture of conventional success. With a degree from Duke Law School and a job at a prestigious firm in Wilmington, she is a dark-haired beauty with a seemingly flawless professional track record. And yet Maria has a traumatic history of her own, one that compelled her to return to her hometown and left her questioning so much of what she once believed.

A chance encounter on a rain-swept road will alter the course of both Colin and Maria's lives, challenging deeply held assumptions about each other and ultimately, themselves. As love unexpectedly takes hold between them, they dare to envision what a future together could possibly look like...until menacing reminders of events in Maria's past begin to surface.

*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.

Critic Reviews

"A roller-coaster ride of emotions, switching from the soft tone of a love story to the adrenaline rush of a thriller." (Associated Press)

"A journey filled with love, anger, family drama, and revenge." (Harlequin Junkie)

Awful background noise

I hate the constant background noise/music. It’s completely distracting. It should be an option to turn it off

Conflicted

Overall a good listen but had to get used to the background music. Would have preferred a version without it. The audio sounds connected to the story was alright. Would have preferred a narrator who spoke Spanish/dialect as the Mexican culture was a big part of the heroines family. I have high expectations when I pay/use a credit and and the three star review also based on this.

Background

I found the music in the background to be annoying and disturbing at different times

background sound

I did not like the music in the background. it was a bit distracting.

The Background Music is Ridiculous

I wish I had heeded the warning about the background music as it has ruined any hope of enjoying this book. It completely drowns out the narrator and makes listening to it an incredibly difficult task.

Good Reading

Good book and a little different than some Sparks books. That being said, I hated the background audio.

GREAT WHO DONE IT BOOK!!

Loved the suspense and action! I am so glad it didn't have a sad ending for the heroes! You didn't disappoint!

Love Nicholas Sparks!

I couldn’t get through 10 minutes due to the music! It’s probably just me...but such a distraction from the narrator. 😫 I couldn’t be an overall judge of the story...but I’m sure it was good.
