When Raquelita Muro and Matthew Buchanan meet by chance on a Greyhound bus, neither suspects their journey has just begun. To Raquelita, a gentle girl under the heel of her abusive mother, this kind young man is a miracle. To Matthew, an idealistic young soldier, the sweet-natured girl he meets between Texas and Tallahassee is an angel in need of a guardian.But fate is rarely so kind. The next stop on Matthew's journey is Fort Benning to report for deployment to Vietnam, with Raquelita to be moved at her mother's whim. When they find a way to secretly span the distance, they end up closer than ever. Until the vagaries of war'and the unstable tempers of Racquelita's mother'intervene, leaving both ill-fated lovers feeling desperately alone. Fifteen months later, living without each other has all but left Raquelita and Matthew in pieces. When a friend reminds Matthew of what is important, he seeks out the woman he loves, and even under the weight of lost faith, shattered memories, deferred dreams, and broken promises, two damaged souls begin to craft a life together, stronger and sweeter than either might live alone.
"It is a rare pleasure to read a book on personal finance with which I agree completely. Dana Anspach has produced one. I am usually turned off by the chapter on investing, which is typically false and misleading. Investing should always start from the safest strategy to achieve one's goals. Dana Anspach gets it right and expresses it in entertaining prose that anyone can understand and enjoy." —Zvi Bodie, Professor of Economics, Boston University People in their fifties start to wonder: When should I retire? Once I do, when should I take Social Security? Do I need to buy an annuity to make sure I have enough money to last my whole life?

The path out of this present age of darkness is clear and simple, but no one wants to take it. It is a path that starts with recognizing the failure of oneself to lead a disciplined life, runs through the acceptance that democracy is a failed experiment and includes the firm understanding that materialism is the enemy. This enemy is a two-headed dragon. One head is the dialectical materialism of Marxism and Marxian socialism. The other head is the combined forces of consumerism and laissez-fare capitalism. The ideology of National Destiny combines Fascism and Integralism to bring about a revival of the human spirit that has been excluded from modernity in the West. This is not an ideology of racism. All races can play a role in National Destiny. It is simply a question of renouncing the narcotic of victimhood, standing up straight and tall, and answering the call of the Fatherland.
He’s older, his PTSD wounds run deep, and doesn’t believe in second chances. She does... As a naïve young woman, Marité Muro nearly drowned in a maelstrom of confusing emotions stirred by two very different men. One whose tortured soul tugged at her heart, another whose scorching touch made her innocent body want…more. Vietnam left scars on Brian MacKay, some visible, some invisible—and nearly impossible to heal. His war buddy’s sister-in-law has ripened into a tempting, irresistible woman, but their age difference makes her forbidden fruit. After four years in a Spanish prep school, Marité’s come home ready to fight for the man she’s never been able to forget. But when Michael returns out of the past, he threatens everything Marité and Brian have started to build.
One disastrous night rips the lovers apart. All is lost, until Fate intervenes. Brian’s love for Marité burns with the heat of an eternal flame. However, when Michael makes a play for her, Brian’s PTSD-fueled demons convince him Marité’s better off with someone younger, less damaged—anyone—but him. Anger tears at Marité’s heart. Anger at Brian for giving up so easily. At Michael for trying to reignite an old infatuation. Mostly, anger at herself for her part in the debacle and for not having the strength to fight for the only man she’ll ever love. But Destiny is not quite finished with the lovers…
Their future is shining with hope…but Fate casts a long, long shadow. DESTINY’S PLAN Matthew Buchanan’s bus seat mate is more than something pretty to look at before he ships out for ’Nam. Deep in Raquelita Muro’s sad, whisky-colored eyes is a dream, and they promise to exchange letters in secret. But Fate will push two lonely hearts to the breaking point. Perhaps beyond any hope of healing… DESTINY’S CHOICE Four years in Spain was supposed to give Marité Muro some perspective. But she’s come home knowing exactly what she wants. Brian MacKay. To Brian, Marité is ripe, tempting, forbidden fruit, yet she challenges his resolve until, in a moment of weakness, his wartime demons slip free. And the past threatens to destroy their love. DESTINY’S WAY When Brian’s PTSD-fueled demons flare dangerously out of control, he packs his crippling load of baggage and leaves, convinced Marité is better off with anyone else—even his bitterest rival. Anger tears at Marité’s heart, especially at herself for realizing too late she should have fought harder for the only man she’ll ever love. But Fate has a few more tricks to play. And one tiny, fragile miracle with the power to heal them. If it lives to draw breath…
