Ruby, a sweet-sixteen bride and mother, had her innocence stolen away by the love of her life. Her more experienced nineteen-year-old husband had deep-seated anger issues. In spite of his intermittent beatings, rapes, and threats, Ruby worked hard, studied, took courses, and eventually, enjoyed success by becoming a department manager in a major company. A βwhite knightβ came into Rubyβs life. Clandestine meetings and long chats with her prince charming gave her the courage and motivation she needed to seek a better life for herself and her two children. While rummaging through some old women-in-management motivational books, Ruby realized forty years later that these books would be solutions for women in business today. She eventually understood that her abusive husband wasnβt the only male who came into her life and made unsolicited decisions about her and her career. This challenged Ruby to fight for survival at home and in the business world. But would she win? --
