DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:Event Name: Gwendolyn Zepeda: Book Launch Party!=0D=0AEvent Url: http://www.artshound.com/event/detail/35187=0D=0AEvent Date Begin: 2010-01-28=0D=0AEvent Date End: 2010-01-28=0D=0A=0D=0ABrazos Bookstore is pleased to present author Gwendolyn Zepeda and a&nbsp;Book Launch Party! Come celebrate at the first reading/signing for Houstonian Gwendolyn Zepeda's second novel, Lone Star Legend.&nbsp; =0D=0A=PARADISE LOST.&nbsp; If she can find the time, Sandy Saavedra will stop to breathe. New management has turned work upside down and her father's upcoming marriage-something he forgot to mention to Sandy-means there's no peace at home, either. But it's okay. No matter what's thrown her way, Sandy can deal. Because Sandy has a secret, and his name is Ti&shy;o Jaime.=0D=0A=A short drive out of Austin delivers Sandy into the wide-open spaces of the Hill Country, to the front porch of grandfatherly hermit Ti&shy;o Jaime. There, in the company of pepper plants, a shaggy dog, and fresh squeezed lemonade, the old man imparts down-to-earth advice. Overbearing boss? Work smarter; she'll leave you alone. Disrespectful boyfriend? Pack your bags; a real woman tolerates only a real man. His simple perspective reminds Sandy she can make her own choices-something she's been forgetting lately.=0D=0A=Feeling inspired, Sandy posts their chats online. But as she introduces the world to her personal Eden, her own life heads straight to hell . . .=0D=0A=Praise for Lone Star Legend: 'Fresh and smart.' -Booklist '=0D=0A=Zepeda (Houston, We Have a Problema) gives readers a funny and smart heroine that readers will easily pull for.' -Publishers Weekly=0D=0A='Zepeda is a master wordsmith.' -Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez, New York Times bestselling author of The Dirty Girls Social Club=0D=0A=Gwendolyn Zepeda lives in Houston, Texas.
