In the final novel of the acclaimed Wolfe Brothers Trilogy, Cameron Wolfe goes looking for love as he attempts to escape his brother’s shadow. Cameron Wolfe is a loser. He knows it. He’s the quiet one, not a soccer star like his brother Steve or a charming fighter with a new girl every week like his brother Rube. Cam would give anything to be near one of those girls, to love her and treat her right. He especially likes Rube’s latest, Octavia, with her brilliant ideas and bright green eyes. But what woman like that would want a loser like him? Maybe Octavia would, Cam discovers. Maybe he has talents and passions just waiting to be discovered. And those maybes are about to change everything: winning, loving, losing, the Wolfe brothers, and Cameron himself.

Hi! I'm Em. I've been happily single for about five and a half years. Okay, I know what you're thinking...happily single? Yes. Five years and three months of glorious, albeit sometimes exhausting, adventures in the world of London dating. Besides the normal moments of butterflies in my stomach, sadness from disappointment, and embarrassing moments where you just want the world to swallow you whole there have been moments that deserve to be immortalised. Maybe not the guys...but the moments definitely. The moments when his dad was the chauffeur when I cried because he only left me a can of tuna, when the fire exit was the quickest way out, or when I tripped over flat pavement while racing down the street of Central London in heels at twilight. Yes, I've met some interesting characters but the moments that have starred them are the stories that have kept me and my friends in stitches. What can I say? My life was meant to be a book. So when I say that I am happy, I truly mean I am happy. Dating just to date is fun. Someone might say my London dating life has been pretty chaotic. Chaotic but entertaining.
