Summary: Shades Of Romance Magazine Review
Comment: Francis Ray knocked us down with "I know Who Holds Tomorrow". As soon as we get up, she's back with a counter punch with "Somebody's Knocking At My Door."
This wonderfully romantic story will sweep you away to New Orleans which is one of my favorite places to visit. I found myself reading into the night, enjoying every word.
The story revolves around Kristen Wakefield a administrator, at Haywood Museum in New Orleans. Rafe Crawford, a furniture maker, who had been abused as a child, and still carried the pain and scars. Damiem Broussard, a high power corporate lawyer. Angelique Fleming, a clinical psychologist working on her doctorate. Maurice Laurent a promiscuous husband. Claudette Thibodeax Laurent, owner of a mega corporation and financial backer of the Haywood Museum of New Orleans and Jacques Broussard the owner of St Clair Gallery on Royal St.
This book is a must read. There is so much tension between the couples you will enjoy every minute of it. Francis Ray did an outstanding job causing the couples to come together, break up, only to come together again. They each had very challenging obstacles to conquer before they could unite. Such as dealing with events of their past and overcoming the traumas in their lives.
This book I rate 5***** Stars and I admonish you all to read it soon!

Summary: Compelling and heart-warming
Comment: What a delight it was to receive a copy of Francis Ray's latest book, SOMEBODY'S KNOCKING AT MY DOOR. It was even more rewarding once the final page of the book was read and I sat and reflected on this story which is full of memorable characters and a plot centered on family and love.
Kristen Wakefield is an art historian working at an illustrious and well-known museum in New Orleans. While working to put together the first known collection of nineteenth century African-American art, things take a turn for the worse. When someone threatens her well-being and her career, she reaches out for help from Rafe Crawford, a skilled carpenter and distant in-law. Though proficient in his craft, Rafe is battling with his own demons and his inability to trust others and allow them into his life.
Kristin's best friend Angelique is working hard to get her doctorate in psychology and has ruled out men in her life. In a pinky swear of sorts, the two friends vow off men and set out on a course that takes some unexpected detours and leaves both of them on one way streets to love.
These characters along with a cast of well-developed antagonists add depth to SOMEBODY'S KNOCKING AT MY DOOR and demonstrate Ray's ability to continuously bring out the well rounded aspects of being in relationships with family and friends and the ups and downs we incur as a result. Her characters are real, compelling, and heart-warming and the story is one I'd recommend without a doubt. Her books never fail to engage the reader laving them looking at their own familial ties.

Summary: BLACK LOVE IS SO BEAUTIFUL !!!!
Comment: This book is excellent. This is the first book that I have read by Francis Ray. I am now in search of her other works. I loved the way she weaves Black Love together. I am a hopeful romantic and I have read so many books by Black authors that put shame to Black Love. This book was so beautiful. I highly recommend it.
