A seemingly inside glance at American life in this coming of age novel. Gloria takes you on a wild ride through the 1950's to the 90's as she makes her way through Corporate America, climbing her way to the top in a time when women were not recognized as executives. Romantic interludes based on stories from a real life - where cigarettes and alcohol were part of the daily diet. Travel from the mid- west, where Gloria was born and got married and began her career, to the long, sordid love affairs that ensued. We follow her to the Gulf Coast of Florida where she settles for the remainder of her years. She navigates the emotions of others, but is able to keep her own in check. Gloria winds her way through women in the workplace, infertility, tried and true friendships, and of course, the men she loved. There is passion, hope, fear and grief. Her aging parents and her rescue dog become her entire life for years, and when it seems like there is no hope left... perhaps there still is, you can decide.
