Real Love 25 reviews Greg Baer
Gotham, 2004
simple, but powerful
+ This book changed my life + Real Wisdom, Real Love
This is a 'get back to fundamentals' kind of book: nuts and bolts stuff you may know, but might not remember about relationships. Or stuff you never learned, because you didn't get enough real love growing up. Simple, but powerful. Prepare to hold the mirror close.
