The Eagles of the Sierra Madre
Author: A. J. Osorio
This World War II war romance is based on the actual events of Aztec warriors of the 201st Fighter Air Squadron. The story unfolds in the final days of the second Great War. They felt compiled to chase the formidable Zero across the China Sea. Two months earlier, they chased women from Texas to Idaho.
One pilot, Esteban came to restore honor for his country. Kate came to help him fly the P-47 D Thunderbolt, the fastest aircraft in the war. Within weeks, they became lovers. He would go to the Pacific War. She promised to wait his return, but there was Ana, and always Cecilia. Just when you figured out where things are going…well, we know who won the war, but things become twisted.

BOOK TWO...
Author: A. J. Osorio
This sequel to the JOURNALIST OF THE MAGDALENA takes Ricardo Gomez through the first third of the last century. The wars he covers as a journalist, and then a noted sportswriter, leads him to women who bear striking resemblances to a first lover. But are they just his imaginary returns of a lost love, or his latest objects of lust? The women are pleased; but his mother is appalled. She expects a wife for his sons. He expects the lost Mercedes. When she does appear, she is a married scientist, uncomfortable with being a mistress. A strange threat keeps them apart, but when the theft of the emeralds of Santa Cristina is recovered, events change. A fledgling aviation business bolsters their romance, and when they are in los Amazonas, Ricardo makes a discovery.

BOOK THREE...
Wings Over the Amazon
Author: A. J. Osorio
The
next generation of the Gomez family is placed against the backdrop of
the Roaring Twenties and early years of aviation. Drug lords,
international airline magnates, and a South American war challenge
their commercial airline: Aereo Oriente. But none is as much a
distraction, yet an asset, for the son of Ricardo Gomez, as Dee Braun.
In the skies, she is an accomplished aviatrix, but in speakeasies,
boudoirs of too many men, she is the bold Flapper. Is she drawn to
Vicente Gomez because of who he is, or his connection to the rain
forest of las Amazonas?
