YOU OPENED YOUR LEGS BEFORE I OPENED MY HEART
In today’s society, relationships and dating have a major impact on just about every human being. Men and women want to know how to have a successful relationship and most importantly how to keep that relationship. There are several books out there on relationships; however, each author has to have something that sets them aside from other authors. The author of, You Opened Your Legs Before I Opened My Heart, Jerald J. Howard goes in depth of relationships and love through the pages of the book.
Although, the characters in the book are fictional, the message portrayed throughout the book occurs in every day life, which is why the audience can connect with it. It’s entertaining, yet at the same time it intrigues your mind and makes you think. I had the pleasure of interviewing the 03′ Clemson University graduate and asked him a few questions on his views on relationships.
