Book Description

In the final novel of the acclaimed Wolfe Brothers Trilogy, Cameron Wolfe goes looking for love as he attempts to escape his brother’s shadow. Cameron Wolfe is a loser. He knows it. He’s the quiet one, not a soccer star like his brother Steve or a charming fighter with a new girl every week like his brother Rube. Cam would give anything to be near one of those girls, to love her and treat her right. He especially likes Rube’s latest, Octavia, with her brilliant ideas and bright green eyes. But what woman like that would want a loser like him? Maybe Octavia would, Cam discovers. Maybe he has talents and passions just waiting to be discovered. And those maybes are about to change everything: winning, loving, losing, the Wolfe brothers, and Cameron himself.

If that's your goal, then let this book be your guide. In addition to helping you create a successful approach, you'll also get lots of tips for your first date, including how to hold a conversation with comfort and ease. So say goodbye, once and for all, to awkward introductions and girl-related bloopers - and say hello to enjoyable date nights where you feel completely calm and in control.
