Trouble Don't Last Always

Rating:
Summary: Standing strong...
Review: After a horrific beating that left him blind, prominent neurosurgeon Adam Wakefield is understandably frustrated and angry with the world. Lilly Crawford, fleeing from an abusive marriage, takes off for parts unknown and finds herself literally on Adam's doorstep after her car breaks down.

In desperate need of money to divorce her husband and fix her car, Lilly offers her services as a caregiver for Adam after overhearing a conversation between his mother and sister. Not used to depending on anyone for anything, Adam doesn't take too kindly to Lilly, or anyone for that matter, helping him with the daily aspects of life that a sighted person performs, and often takes for granted. Lilly stands strong, even though his anger terrifies her at first. Slowly but surely, she helps Adam re-build his self-confidence, and the two find themselves very attracted to each other. Will the insecurities each of them harbor destroy any chance they have at true love?

With a wealth of emotions so deep, TROUBLE DON'T LAST ALWAYS is a beautiful tale of love and perseverance that will bring tears to the driest eye and will soften the hardest heart. I am forever a fan of Francis Ray, and I applaud her on penning a story so compelling, so real, that even the staunchest critics of the romance genre will be sure to enjoy.

Summary: Never underestimate the power of love!
Review: I loved this book. Lilly was a strong woman, much stronger then she thought. She had to be to deal with Adam. But with a lot of TLC, and patience Lilly and Adam found something they both needed desperately, she, love and tenderness, he, the undying love of a good woman. Even with a new title,(the other title is Turning Point) which is also fitting, it is a great read.

Summary: Loved this book!
Review: I read this book in two days! The best book I have read in a long time (and I read a lot of books). The characters were touching and real (even if the guy was rich - in real life this is a rarity) and you had a sense that you knew them. Francis Ray did an excellent job. This was the first book I have read from her, and I don't plan to make it the last. She has a way of putting you in every scene, and seeing and understanding each character. Though descriptions are needed to set the feel and tone, it was not overdone. I truly recommend this book.

Summary: Good the second time around
Review: If you have read the book "The Turning Point" by this author, then this is the "exact" same book, only with a title change. If you haven't gotten Someone's knocking at my Door, then pick this one up. It gives the story of Adam's sister and her struggles with love. As usual, Francis Ray's stories are well written, and continue to be entertaining, I am looking forward to what's next to come.
