Klappentext

We all have that friend . . .

The one who wants to capture hearts IRL and via URL without breaking her own. The one who can’t seem to overcome ghosting, orbiting and flaking. The one who wants to inspire like Oprah and seduce like a stripper.

The one who looks for love and loses herself. You might have that friend (or be that friend), but congratulations—you have found the solution.

The Game of Desire will teach you the self- and social awareness to make dating your new favorite hobby. The truth is that we live in a world where dissatisfaction and disenchantment with dating aren’t just normal—they’re expected. Sexologist and intimacy expert Shan Boodram has analyzed the competitive dating landscape as well as the common pitfalls women face in the pursuit of passion and has developed a five-phase strategy to help down-on-love daters achieve romantic success.

Testing out this strategy is a group of chronically single women eager to learn how to attract, approach and seduce any partners they desire. By challenging this group to empower themselves through identifying and tackling bad habits, and by debunking dating myths through real-life experiments, Boodram empowers you to take control of your love story and to manifest the life you know you are meant to live.

Featuring exclusive workshops from a range of experts, surprising techniques and revelations on why good intentions just aren’t good enough anymore—this book will inspire you to give your best self a chance to come out and play to win. Hilarious, poignant and insightful, The Game of Desire is a must for everyone tired of the new normal.
