It is there, too, that the chestnut-haired beauty will be reunited with her beloved Stuart, the brave soldier-turned-schoolteacher, whose kisses ignite her with overwhelming desire. But frontier life holds promise and peril far greater than any Anna could ever imagine. The growing conflict between native tribes and white settlers threatens to erupt in bloodshed.

As settlers and Indians clash, fate will bring Anna together with her unknown sister...and lead her to a passion beyond her wildest fantasies.
As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years. The Alcalde serves as an intellectual crossroads where UT's luminaries - artists, engineers, executives, musicians, attorneys, journalists, lawmakers, and professors among them - meet bimonthly to exchange ideas. Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."
A race of alien vampires have over taken the planet. Now it's up to a small band of slayers to back the planet in this apocalyptic future society. In a world where humans and vampires are at constant war with each other and entire cities are in ruins. The only way to have a fun challenge is to have sword fightening competitions in old run down shopping malls. Now the only way to clam back the planet is for the slayers to use air-force jets to eliminate the fiends from another galaxy that can shape-shift into human form and the only way to kill them is with a virus called Dioxin 101. Alien vampires are not the only thing these slayers have to worry about. Giant mutant spiders and a twelve foot genetically engineered vampire constantly stalks prey. Living in a world like this you can never trust anyone.
