The book explores how entrepreneurial couples are transforming small businesses into multi-million dollar enterprises, with behind-the-scenes views of the couples who created success stories like Mrs Field's Chocolate Chippery, Mother's Work, Penthouse International, W.L. Gore and Associates, Best Products and many others. It deals with important issues facing every couple in business - from how to divide labor and rewards to coping with business setbacks to bringing up children. The book will be of the greatest interest for every couple who would like to become business partners as well as for those who have already taken the plunge.
