Abstract: To the casual eye, Ruby Gallagher has the perfect life. Adoring husband, Manny, a stunning home and a fresh designer outfit every day of the week. If Ruby feels the odd twinge of doubt about whether she is actually happy, she learns to ignore it. After her turbulent past, there's a reassuring safety in predictability. But when - suddenly and dramatically - it all falls apart when Manny is arrested for fraud... As her designer lifestyle is repossessed, Ruby has to lean on somebody she's never relied on before: herself. Is there life after Manny? Only one way to find out...
