In my new book, MANHOOD SERIES, I demonstrate how men are investors; not just in business but also in relationships. Whatever is special to a man he guards it and brags about it.
In my other new book, WOMANHOOD SERIES, I demonstrate the nurturing and powerful nature of a woman. When a man gives a woman the space to love her and when he loves her right, she transforms him in a big way.
