It is the true story of Ramiro “Toti” Méndez, an All-American college baseball player who starred at Florida International University and Miami’s Westminster Christian High School. Toti, whose athletic endeavors graced local headlines, died from an undetected heart condition, without knowing the most important story of his life. This honest memoir is also about untold secrets.

Song for Olivia: A Novel
Gusana. Esbirra. Latifundista. Mari is only 12 when she is called these words for the first time. She knows what they mean: worm, henchman, filthy landowner. What she doesn’t yet know is that they mark the beginning of her exile from her native Cuba. Mari’s childhood has been filled with the opulence enjoyed by Cuba’s wealthy elites, but as Fidel Castro seizes power, her father’s money and former government position place a target on their family. The country she has always called home is now violently rejecting her. After a fraught escape to Miami, Mari and her sister Olivia must start over as Castro continues to devastate the loved ones they have left behind. Miami holds both hope and desperation. Mari works towards her dream of becoming a writer, while Olivia meets and falls in love with a counterrevolutionary. Still, their family is fractured, their money is scarce, and their father insists they will be able to return to Cuba before they know it. But Mari and Olivia know that their futures are in the US now. It's up to them to find their way back to the lives they want to lead.

An American Son
Few politicians have risen to national prominence as quickly as Marco Rubio. Here is the full story of his unlikely journey. Florida Senator Marco Rubio electrified the 2012 Republican National Convention by telling the story of his parents, who were struggling immigrants from Cuba. They embraced their new country and taught their children to appreciate its unique opportunities. Every sacrifice they made over the years, as they worked hard at blue-collar jobs in Miami and Las Vegas, was for their children. Young Marco grew up dreaming about football, not politics. In this fascinating memoir, he reveals how he ended up running for the West Miami City Commission, and then the Florida House of Representatives. In just six years he rose to Speaker of the Florida House. He then won his U.S. Senate campaign as an extreme long shot. Now Rubio speaks on the national stage about the better future that’s possible if we return to our founding principles. In that vision, as in his family’s story, Rubio proves that the American Dream is still alive for those who pursue it.
