Now in later life, she realizes she needs a more focused plan. This is the story of how Solange lets go of her tequila shots and tries again to live her dream. Actually she doesn't totally let go of the tequila shots, and after being fired from her gig playing in a prestigious all-harp orchestra, Solange enters the Afterlife by mistake.

One of Time Magazine’s Sixteen Best True Crime Books of All Time A crusading Mexican-American journalist searches for justice and hope in an increasingly violent Mexico In the last decade, more than 100,000 people have been killed or disappeared in the Mexican drug war, and drug trafficking there is a multibillion-dollar business. In a country where the powerful are rarely scrutinized, noted Mexican-American journalist Alfredo Corchado refuses to shrink from reporting on government corruption, murders in Juárez, or the ruthless drug cartels of Mexico. One night, Corchado received a tip that he could be the next target of the Zetas, a violent paramilitary group—and that he had twenty-four hours to find out if the threat was true. Midnight in Mexico is the story of one man’s quest to report the truth of his country—as he races to save his own life.

Book Description
From prizewinning journalist and immigration expert Alfredo Corchado comes the sweeping story of the great Mexican migration from the late 1980s to today. Homelands is the story of Mexican immigration to the United States over the last three decades. Written by Alfredo Corchado, one of the most prominent Mexican American journalists, it's told from the perspective of four friends who first meet in a Mexican restaurant in Philadelphia in 1987. One was a radical activist, another a restaurant/tequila entrepreneur, the third a lawyer/politician, and the fourth, Alfredo, a hungry young reporter for the Wall Street Journal. Over the course of thirty years, the four friends continued to meet, coming together to share stories of the turning points in their lives-the death of parents, the births of children, professional milestones, stories from their families north and south of the border. Using the lens of this intimate narrative of friendship, the book chronicles one of modern America's most profound transformations-during which Mexican Americans swelled to become our largest single minority, changing the color, economy, and culture of America itself. In 1970, the Mexican population was just 700,000 people, but despite the recent decline in Mexican immigration to the United States, the Mexican American population has now passed three million-a result of high birth rates here in the United States. In the wake of the nativist sentiment unleased in the recent election, Homelands will be a must-read for policy makers, activists, Mexican Americas, and all those wishing to truly understand the background of our ongoing immigration debate.

This is book 3 and the finale of the Steel Jockeys MC series! I won't take no for an answer. I claimed my best friend's little sister. I don't care if she wants this. I don't care if it's wrong. Tonight, she'll learn the truth: she belongs to me now. I swore I'd keep her safe. That's the last thing I said to him – her brother, my best friend – before he died in my arms. Keeping her safe meant keeping her far the hell away from the Steel Jockeys MC. A little girl like Ruby had no business getting mixed up with a clubhouse full of cold-blooded killers, hitmen, outlaws, and bikers. We drank too much. Rode too hard. So, for seven years, I kept her away. And I upheld my oath to my fallen brother-in-arms. But all of a sudden, Ruby isn't a little girl anymore. She's a woman. Not just any woman – she's a beauty. Hair like a sunlit waterfall, skin pure and flawless, curves that test the strength of my zipper. Like it happened overnight, she went from being my best friend's kid sister… To a woman that I'd kill to have. The only problem is, other people feel the same. Especially the men who slaughtered her brother. And they're coming back to finish the job they started seven years ago. But there's a difference. This time around, I'm ready for war. Because if they think they can take Ruby from me, they've got another thing coming. From the second I saw her, I knew one thing: this girl was mine now. And there's not a single man, dead or alive, who gets to lay a damn finger on what's mine. I'm a savage rebel. And I'll kill to protect my woman.
