About the book
One woman with one mission and one opportunity to change the lives of
many, this one woman is Lydia Harris a/k/a Lady Boss. Lydia has survived
death threats, attempted kidnappings and attempts to take her life and yet
she still stayed down to protect her interests in her young empire.
From Interscope and Maverick Records, she’s done business with a vast
majority of noteworthy conglomerates and with many conspiracies to keep
her out, but she refused to go away.
Being the modern day David slaying of Goliath, she defied the odds by
defending her good name and claiming her fare share of profits from the
most feared man in the world of music and entertainment Marion “SUGE”
Knight.
She now moves forward and will forever be etched in the minds of many
as the one that made a difference. Read her powerful new book Married to
the Game and become inspired to see how she triumphed over tragedies and
see how her dedication to one man changed her life forever and how she
became and still is married to the game.

About the Author
Lydia Robinson Harris owns a small restaurant in Texas, dotes on her
daughter LyDasia, believes in God and family – and has spent most of the
past two decades living a life that the rest of us would have a very hard
time imagining.
As the wife of convicted drug dealer Michael Harris, she once divided
her time between courthouses and prisons, a series of elegant homes in
California, and her office at Death Row Records. For a small-town girl of
simple tastes, she managed to survive some amazing extremes!
Nothing prepared her, though, for the darkness and ugliness she would
encounter when ruthless people (some of them famous, all of them wealthy)
decided to squeeze her out of everything she had. From rumors to
lies to malicious slander to death threats, her name and reputation were
hauled through some particularly dirty waters.
She admits that she was too trusting. She knows she tended to look on
the good side of folks. She had a habit of believing what she heard. Now,
though, now she’s been educated. Now she’s seen reality. Now she
understands what it takes to maintain her sanity, her composure, and her
faith in a very greedy world.
And now she’s ready to start over again – on her own.
