Emily Brooks:
Life Partners - The Most Important Career Decision You Will Ever Make

“Today’s woman wants a teammate over a knight, and with good reason…”

The First Move published by Murdoch Books 

Emily Brooks, author of The First Move (a book about the awakening of the young dating feminist) puts her case for a woman figuring out her own wants and needs before taking a leap into the world of love, or, equally as I see it in the context of unpausing, into the world of work. Clever, inspiring, practical: think before you leap.
