What Might Have Been: A Dana McGarry Novel (The Dana McGarry Series)

By Lynn Steward

As a fashion buyer at one of New York's most glamorous department stores, Dana McGarry is a tastemaker, her keen instinct for fashion trends and innovative ideas coupled with a razor sharp business sense. But like the elegant and conservative store that employs her, Dana is caught between two eras'between being liked and standing her ground, between playing by the rules and being a maverick. Dana is sensitive and beautiful, but what you see is not what you get. Behind the cool and attractive facade, Dana is both driven by her need to control yet impeded by her expectation of perfectionism. As she competes to replace women at the top of their game, she is challenged by jealous colleagues. And when a wealthy businessman wants to open doors and support her ambition, she embraces Coco Chanel's mantra of ?never wanting to weigh more heavily on a man than a bird.' As the women's movement paves the way, Dana finds a path to the career she wants at the expense of happiness that was not meant to be.
