An excerpt of my book...The Wives of Machismo


At that moment, the bathroom door opens, "Isabel, what happened?" asks Isabel's mom.

Isabel removed the towel. She has a busted lip and a big cut on her forehead.

"Isabel, who did this to you?" her mom asks.

Scared to tell her mom, she whispers, "It was Juan."

"Why did Juan do this to you? she asks.

Isabel cries thinking her Mom may hug her or hold her. Instead her Mom begins to yell.

"What did you do? You had to have done something wrong for Juan to do this to you!"

Isabel frowns and is confused at her mom's reaction.

'Mom, I didn't do anything. All I did was ask him what was wrong because he wasn't talking to me." cried Isabel. 

"Isabel! You need to learn to keep your mouth shut! Men don't like to be questioned," her mom says. 

"Mom, a man isn't supposed to hit a woman," says Isabel.

A pinch of, "Her Jealous Husband," one of the stories in my book, "The Wives of Machismo."

Soon, Victoria is coming to work with bruises on her arms and face. Her Boss watches her every day and realizes that she's everything that he's ever wanted in a woman. At forty-two years old, he's never been married because he has never found, "the one." A few weeks pass and Victoria doesn't show up to work one day. Her boss calls her house but doesn't get an answer. He's really worried about her so he drives over to her house. He knocks on the door. Victoria slowly cracks the door open. What he saw stopped him. He could barely recognize Victoria. Her face was swollen and purple. One eye was completely closed shut. "You shouldn't be here," says Victoria softly. "Oh my God! Victoria, are you okay?" he asks in a panic. "I'm okay, she says in a quiet voice. "Victoria, get your purse and whatever you can't leave behind and come with me, now." he says as tears begin to roll down his face. She stutters, "W...

One day, you may just walk away.

Many women spend their whole life in an unhappy relationship. They stay for security. They stay for their children. They stay because they are fearful to take that step. But, sometimes, a woman who has endured hurt, sadness and disrespect from her husband, will one day, walk away.  Fear keeps many women under the thumb of a man. Usually, this man is disrespectful, a liar, and a cheater. These types of men are usually bothered by the presence of their wife. Once a man has other women on the side, their wife can't do anything right.  My short story books take you behind the scenes in this type of life. Some women sadly stay, some bravely leave, and a few witness their husband get the karma they deserve.  Click on link below and take a peek.  https://sandramoreno.org/

It's about respecting your wife. . .

Many married men-worldwide, are often served by young girls wearing skimpy, sexy attire at numerous sports bars. These men have lunch or dinner there, either alone or with business partners. Feasting their eyes. Many times, these girls are young enough to be their daughters, or even their granddaughters.  Usually, while these husband's are at these types of places, their wives are home taking care of the children. Many looking a bit rough, hair in a clip, sweats & t-shirt, huffing & puffing, cleaning up spilled milk and cereal off the floor, sweeping up food crumbs, and wiping tiny faces.  Sometimes these Mom's have a daytime job, then have to come home and work at their second job, which is cleaning, cooking, and taking care of the children.  Then, there are the stay-at-home Mom's that never get a break because this is their whole life.  Sadly, because of the sexy sports bars, social media, and the conveniece to it all, many men don't think of their wives wh...
