And that is precisely what Bernedette does on a daily basis: keeps her eye on the prizeequality for women in the workplace, and a promotionwhile fending off the ire of her boss and the sabotaging efforts of a jealous coworker. With the support of her book club buddies and a certain charismatic editor at Lenox & Pa
