What a cool request! 

I don't have anything, but have you considered Malcolm X?  His writing is very good.

I don't know if you like mysteries, but the Father Koesler mysteries are written by William X Kienzle.

Father Koesler is a priest who is often called in by the Detriot P.D. when they are dealing with a murder with a religious twist. Father Koesler solves the mystery using his knowledge as a priest. You don't have to be at all religious to enjoy these. They are similar to the Rabbi books or the Father Dowling mysteries.

There are 20 in the series. Leyba B (Leyba) just posted them all to her shelf.

I have The Millionaire Boss's Baby, by Maggie Cox. 

In addition, this title has THREE "S" letters together, which is kind of rare.

 

Good luck on your search.
