Ruby's Revenge
Christine Gallagher, author
Adult; General Fiction (including literary and historical); (Market)
Self-effacing Ruby Bixler has leaned too long on her insecurities and play-it-safe nature. When Ruby discovers that her TV news anchor husband Brad is not only having an affair with his assistant but plans to snatch away her beloved home, she sets out to show him (and the world around her) that Ruby Bixler isn’t going to take it anymore. As she tackles her husband, a ruthless co-worker, and her overbearing mother, Ruby learns the power of standing up for oneself. A darkly humorous, often moving tale of the delicious revenge of a wronged woman who’s way too nice for her own good, Ruby’s Revenge captures the essence of the time bomb ticking at center stage – the resolution of toxic family baggage and the power of transformation.
