Book Description

January 24, 2012

Dear Person Picking Up This Book,

Hi, I'm Jake. Glamour magazine's advice columnist. You probably think you don't know me. I'm anonymous, after all. But trust me, you do: I'm the guy who doesn't call. Who breaks up by text. Who stays for breakfast, walks your dog, then disappears into thin, thin air.

At least I used to be.

For years I was your basic dating nightmare. And then, under the influence of one magical woman my readers came to know as Orange Blossoms, I changed. Now I'm here to blow the lid off what you think you know about the way guys think. Because here's the big secret I learned from being slayed by Blossoms: Women already have what it takes to get what they want from men; they just need to know how to use that power.

Want a boyfriend? A better boyfriend? A ring? It's all yours for the asking.

But don't just take it from me. Glamour's "Jake" has been at it, living among men sharing their secrets with women since 1956. Now we're distilling our collective wisdom into ten rules to help you get the love life you deserve. A sneak peak at what you'll learn:

  • You've got to broadcast your personality. If you're a nerd, let your nerd flag fly.
  • The best men out there DON'T send expensive flowers.
  • For great sex, save a few tricks for later (much later) on.
  • Plus: How to make him think commitment was his idea? (Sneaky Yes. Necessary YES.)

For more than 50 years, Glamour magazine's Jake columnist has served as a dating consigliore for millions of American women. Now, in his trademark no-B.S. voice, Jake offers this indispensable guide for women. What are men really thinking How can you get the love life you want and deserve? Jake knows.

5.0 out of 5 stars A nice persepective from the other sex January 28, 2012
Format:Hardcover
I found this book to be very helpful! I have read books like Why Men Love Bitches and Why Men Marry Bitches. Both books are amazing, but I truly liked this one because we have the male point of view. It is a very easy and enjoyable read. I didn't find this to be a "man catching book," but rather one that is telling women to be you and do what is best for you! Only after you are putting yourself first can you actually find the relationship worthy enough for you! I truly enjoyed this book and I am glad to finally have a book that is very much to the point on where men are coming from in relationships. I would recommend it to every woman!

5.0 out of 5 stars ' Just Be You!' Great Advice, Jake! January 31, 2012
Format:Hardcover
Glamour Magazine releases "Always Hit On The Wingman," by Jake. Everybody knows that Jake is America's most trusted dating columnist and if you've read his columns, you'll definitely want to read this book. In "Always Hit On The Wingman," Jake utilizes his own life experiences to give advice to women about what men really think! "Always Hit On The Wingman," is a very intriguing book, nicely written in the first person, reflecting upon real life experiences. Jake's stories are fun, easy to read and most importantly, he shares unique advice for all women. Particularly, the advice he strongly gives about just being yourself. This advice reverts way back to the days of Aristotle and his journey to empower all people he encountered by guiding them to find their real purpose in life, while teaching them to believe in themselves. This advice is the most genuine advice anyone could give and it seems so many of us have trouble being ourselves at times. `Just be yourself,' Jake quotes throughout the book and I have to say "Great advice Jake!" The book is fun because Jake shares real life stories that reflect upon the many hurdles he himself, had to jump, before he met the right one. Yes, it was Blossom! We see why Jake is so mysterious, that's a lot to share with the world but, look where he is today, (after being Jake) married to his lovely wife, and now they have a beautiful daughter.....great person to be getting advice from! Won't give too much away about what's inside the book, so you'll have to get your own copy to find out more! You'll also love the Glamour and Jake interviews in between some of the chapters! Great work Glamour and Jake! Michelle R. Rossi/ Michigan Glambassador
