Reviews

[Jessica Geist · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book actually talks far more about the woman in the relationship. I was hoping to figure out some of the motivations of the guys I see around me, and Hawkins does provide insights. More than that, it seems he was giving women advice though about when they would be wise to leave a relationship.
