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

A heartwarming, powerful novel about a single father who must discover the true nature of unconditional love after his world is turned upside down - from the world's most beloved author of love stories.

At 32, Russell Green has it all: a stunning wife, a lovable six year-old daughter, a successful career as an advertising executive and an expansive home in Charlotte. He is living the dream, and his marriage to the bewitching Vivian is the center of that. But underneath the shiny surface of this perfect existence, fault lines are beginning to appear...and no one is more surprised than Russ when he finds every aspect of the life he took for granted turned upside down.

In a matter of months, Russ finds himself without a job or wife, caring for his young daughter while struggling to adapt to a new and baffling reality. Throwing himself into the wilderness of single parenting, Russ embarks on a journey at once terrifying and rewarding - one that will test his abilities and his emotional resources beyond anything he ever imagined.

When a chance encounter with an old flame tempts him to take a chance on love again, he will navigate this new opportunity with trepidation and wonder. But with the loyal support of his parents and his wise older sister Marge, and in the hard-won lessons of fatherhood, Russ will finally come to understand the true nature of unconditional love - that it is a treasure to be bestowed, never earned.

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.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Nicholas Sparks creates magic once again with his latest emotionally powerful novel. ...This is one of those rare beautiful novels, and somehow even feels like one of Sparks' best works yet." (RT Book Reviews)

"Two By Two is a tumultuous story wrapped in a world of broken relationships. Sparks invites readers to take a journey that stares risks and rewards directly in the face. Whether it's tenderness between a husband and wife or affection between a father and his daughter, Sparks has definitely mastered the art of love." (Associated Press)

"Two by Two is a deeply moving tale not only about the love between a father and a daughter but also about the power of family and the courage we must find within ourselves as we face the unknown." (Booklist, starred review)

One of my favorites

The story, the performance and the characters grab you and your heart from the beginning and don't let go. I was excited to get back into my car to listen to this great read. it is my second time reading and now listening. Love Nicholas Sparks

The good and bad

Love the author. I’ve listened to almost all hai books. Great story. Music in background is distracting from the story and really Didn’t enjoy the production.

highs and lows

Overall, I am glad I listened to the entire audiobook. I would have missed the best parts of the story if I had quit early ( which I considered many times). The narration was fine, but the repetition of chords in the background was distracting in the least and annoying at its worst. There were times when I could hear a dog barking in the background.It did not fit the storyline at all and I got the impression the narrator was working at home with daily distractions drawing attention away from his reading.
I am currently on a Sparks "audio binge" and would rank this choice in the lower third of my choices.I was disappointed to learn that there will be no more movie adaptations of his books.I have seen all of the movies...some multiple times.

Two by Two

The reader was Fabulous!
I was captivated by way the book came alive with his voice! The story started out a little slow, but didn’t take long to consume my attention! Loved this story and the characters🤩

Lovely, meanspirited, and then caring

One of the best I've read. realistic storyline lovely characters (some) and a storyline that could be my own. I cried several times ... Even while I was listening at the gym!!

Love

Beautiful story of love.
Background music is very annoying and distracting though for future books

Emotional roller coaster

I’ve never experienced so many changing emotions with a book. Anger, joy, sadness.. Nicholas Sparks sure knows how to pull at the heart strings and take you on that wild emotional roller coaster.

Another great book. When’s the movie?

This book is one of my favorites. Ups and downs of life. Has it all. Only bummed when the story ends. Keep the hits coming.

Amazing.

The narrator and the background music was amazing. The story is amazing and I got attached so much to the characters in a way I didn’t imagine from anyone audiobook.

Could Have Been Better

Mr Sparks has a gift … he creates warm stories that just carry us along with characters we can connect with … as in this book.

I would have to say that I felt the ending of the book was somewhat flat. Russ never really stood up to the contemptible Vivian and thereby the book lost an emotional punch that could have been included in the story.
