&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Dr. Cade Mathis learned early that he was not the son of the man who raised him. His adoptive father, a cruel, bitter man had always been quick to tell him that he was a bastard and an embarrassment to the rich society family whose daughter got pregnant with him. So when Cade received a full scholarship to college, he was only too happy to leave the only home he had ever known behind and never looked back. Now a successful doctor and one of the best neurosurgeons in the state, the only thing he still wants are answers about where he came from. What he doesn't expect to find is Sabrina Thomas, the new patient advocate at his hospital or how this woman will lead him to the family he has been searching for and a love he never expected to find.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;Graysons Friends Series Novel&lt;br /&gt;
Number 6&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
IT'S NEVER TOO LATE&lt;br /&gt;
Cicely St. John is not impressed by her friend C.J. Callahan's so-called passion in life: running a New York City bar that he inherited from his uncle. So why can't Cicely stop thinking about the dance they shared at their mutual friend's wedding-or the mutual attraction she felt in C.J.'s arms?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
TO GIVE LOVE A CHANCE&lt;br /&gt;
As far as C.J. is concerned, Cicely is a snob whose &amp;quot;passion&amp;quot; in life-writing for fashion magazines-is as pretentious as she is. So why can't he keep his eyes off her? C.J. has a business to run. And Cicely has a job opportunity in Paris. Neither of them even has time to think about romance right now. But maybe, just once, the two could test their friendship...with just one kiss.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;In this first ever short story collection, New York Times bestselling author Francis Ray takes us on five steamy, sexy adventures. From a timid, dowdy duckling who turns into a confident, sexy swan which sends her into the arms of a handsome artist to a bridesmaid’s explosive encounter with the best man to an unproven actress who is being wooed to the stage by a handsome Broadway director. From a journalist’s very steamy night with an old flame to a woman who pretends that she is dating a wealthy businessman but never imagines he would show up to collect on that claim. Experience just how much Francis Ray can turn up the heat! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''The Awakening''' (originally published in February 1999 as part of ROSIE’S CURL AND WEAVE anthology)&lt;br /&gt;
A timid, dowdy duckling turns into a confident, sexy swan—and into the arms of a handsome artist—with the help of Rosie’s Curl and Weave...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''A Matter of Trust''' (originally published in July 2000 as part of DELLA’S HOUSE OF STYLE anthology)&lt;br /&gt;
Single mother Hope Lassiter, once a critically acclaimed actress, is now a cosmetologist at Della’s House of Style. When a handsome director tries to woo her back to the stage, Hope has to wonder if his intentions are more than professional...&lt;br /&gt;
'''&lt;br /&gt;
Sweet Temptation''' (originally published in December 2000 as part of WELCOME TO LEO’S anthology)&lt;br /&gt;
A Texas Ranger and a candy shop owner have a blind date—with a delicious unexpected outcome.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'''Southern Comfort''' (originally published in June 2001 as part of GOING TO THE CHAPEL anthology)&lt;br /&gt;
A bridesmaid for the eighth time and not the bride, political fundraiser Adrienne Summers is fed up. Worse, she finds a major problem at this wedding—the Best Man. They’re fighting about her clothes (too sexy), her behavior (too flirty), and his macho views (wives shouldn’t work). It sounds like they just might be falling in love!&lt;br /&gt;
'''&lt;br /&gt;
The Blind Date''' (originally published in October 2004 as part of LET’S GET IT ON anthology)&lt;br /&gt;
Ayanna Hardcastle pretends that she is dating wealthy businessman Tanner Rafferty in order to get her matchmaking friend off her back. But she never imagined that Tanner Rafferty would show up to collect on that claim!&lt;br /&gt;

Nathalyia Fontaine's husband died four years ago and now she is the sole proprietor of his restaurant/bar, Fontaine.  She hasn't dated anyone in all those years, choosing not to open her heart or possibly reveal her dark past again.  That is, until she meets Rafael Dunlap.  Rafael is a hostage negotiator with his own issues.  Though he loves women, he vows he'll never marry.  His job is too unpredictable.  But his thinking and game plan of loving and leaving changes when he meets Nathalyia.  When the unexpected happens, Nathalyia ends things with Rafael before he can break her heart.  But when Rafael is in harms way, will Nathalyia resolve to tell him the truth before it's too late?  Or will past demons keep them apart forever?&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

IT HAD TO BE YOU  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
From New York Times best selling author Francis Ray comes a dazzling new novel of the Grayson family and their friends—a duo destined to make beautiful music together…&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
IT HAD TO BE HER &lt;br /&gt;
Most musicians would do anything to work with the hot, young record producer known as “Rolling Deep.” R.D. can pick and choose any artist he wants—and he wants Laurel Raineau. A classical violinist, Laurel plays soaring music that touches R.D. to his very soul. But the last thing Laurel wants is to work with someone whose exploits with the ladies appear in the tabloids every week.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
IT HAD TO BE…WHO? &lt;br /&gt;
Not one to take no for an answer, R.D. keeps trying—and failing—to let Laurel know that he’s not the player he’s made out to be. So he introduces himself to her by his real name, Zachary Wilder, hoping to win her over. But it’s Zach who falls under this beauty’s spell. Now it’s only a matter of time before Laurel learns who the man she’s losing her heart to really is—but can she walk away from a passion that feels so right?&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

IT HAD TO BE YOU  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
From New York Times best selling author Francis Ray comes a dazzling new novel of the Grayson family and their friends—a duo destined to make beautiful music together…&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
IT HAD TO BE HER &lt;br /&gt;
Most musicians would do anything to work with the hot, young record producer known as “Rolling Deep.” R.D. can pick and choose any artist he wants—and he wants Laurel Raineau. A classical violinist, Laurel plays soaring music that touches R.D. to his very soul. But the last thing Laurel wants is to work with someone whose exploits with the ladies appear in the tabloids every week.  &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
IT HAD TO BE…WHO? &lt;br /&gt;
Not one to take no for an answer, R.D. keeps trying—and failing—to let Laurel know that he’s not the player he’s made out to be. So he introduces himself to her by his real name, Zachary Wilder, hoping to win her over. But it’s Zach who falls under this beauty’s spell. Now it’s only a matter of time before Laurel learns who the man she’s losing her heart to really is—but can she walk away from a passion that feels so right?&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

Nathalyia Fontaine's husband died four years ago and now she is the sole proprietor of his restaurant/bar, Fontaine.  She hasn't dated anyone in all those years, choosing not to open her heart or possibly reveal her dark past again.  That is, until she meets Rafael Dunlap.  Rafael is a hostage negotiator with his own issues.  Though he loves women, he vows he'll never marry.  His job is too unpredictable.  But his thinking and game plan of loving and leaving changes when he meets Nathalyia.  When the unexpected happens, Nathalyia ends things with Rafael before he can break her heart.  But when Rafael is in harms way, will Nathalyia resolve to tell him the truth before it's too late?  Or will past demons keep them apart forever?&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Nathalyia Fontaine's husband died four years ago and now she is the sole proprietor of his restaurant/bar, Fontaine.  She hasn't dated anyone in all those years, choosing not to open her heart or possibly reveal her dark past again.  That is, until she meets Rafael Dunlap.  Rafael is a hostage negotiator with his own issues.  Though he loves women, he vows he'll never marry.  His job is too unpredictable.  But his thinking and game plan of loving and leaving changes when he meets Nathalyia.  When the unexpected happens, Nathalyia ends things with Rafael before he can break her heart.  But when Rafael is in harms way, will Nathalyia resolve to tell him the truth before it's too late?  Or will past demons keep them apart forever?&lt;br /&gt;
