He called me emotional because I saw through his lies. I called the one man he could never outsmart.
Courtney Posner has spent years making her husband look like a visionary. She created the technology behind VidaRing, courted the investors, shaped the company’s glamorous wellness brand, and taught cold, arrogant Rick Posner how to sound like a man the world could trust.
Then Courtney discovers what he’s been doing behind her back.
Rick isn’t just sleeping with Shelby Williams, VidaRing’s beautiful celebrity ambassador. He’s planning to push Courtney out before the company’s billion-dollar IPO, hand Shelby her public role, and rewrite Courtney as an unstable wife who was never important to the business.
And when Courtney questions a product update that could put customers at risk, Rick reaches for the insult women have heard for generations.
She’s too emotional.
Too jealous. Too irrational. Too upset to understand the pressures of leadership.
Rick expects the accusation to embarrass Courtney into silence. Instead, he’s about to learn just how dangerous a woman’s anger can be when she finally trusts it.
