Book excerpt: Sarah Levin Cisneros returns from her honeymoon to face a quandary: should she continue school and pursue a career as an advocate of human rights, or should she relegate her life to being Charro Cisneros' wife, raise a family, and settle into the comforts of living as the matron of the gigantic Dos Encinos Ranch? Luisa, wife of Charro's partner, Carlos Resendez, encourages Sarah to do both. After graduation, Sarah becomes a contributing editor to the San Antonio Express newspaper. Her controversial articles, strongly flavored with women's rights issues, make Sarah a popular figure among women's rights activists and suffragists. In an effort to demonstrate to the people of Texas that women are capable of being more than mothers and homemakers, Sarah participates as a working vaquero on a perilous cattle drive. Childbirth burdens Sarah's already packed schedule of writing, speaking, and promoting the suffrage movement. But while she is away, a tragedy at home rekindles her dilemma. Guilt-ridden from her self-perceived negligence as a wife and mother, should Sarah continue her leadership role as a women's rights activist, or should she return to Dos Encinos to solely be Mrs. Charro Cisneros?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unveiled is a five hundred year old story about a beautiful Bedouin, Jasmine, and her relationship with her two sons. The older boy is a Moslem, who is half Sunni and half Shiite, and her younger son is a Christian. Religious terrorism currently hangs heavily upon men's hearts and minds. An advancement of one religious cult over another is not a suitable answer. We need to come to grips with this growing plague and understand the reasons for this fatal affliction. As reported in this tale of an ancient time, the causes of religious terrorism have more to do with the abuses of power by the world's governmental and spiritual leaders who encourage religious terrorism than with the religions themselves. Unveiled provides some of the reasons and explanations that can lead us to a solution to this dilemma facing our shrinking planet.
