"Date Out of Your League" is perspicacious and a must read. It’s the real thing.


Mel RisdonThe Calgary Sun
It’s the fantasy of average-Joe kind of guys: Having an absolutely beautiful woman fall in love with you.


Book Description
Learn the untold truths about what women want. "Date Out of Your League" offers more than just dating tips and advice, it is a crash course in effectively attracting, dating, and bedding the hottest women—women usually confined to fantasies. It offers a proven formula and strategy for success, while revealing the secrets every man needs to know to win with women. This book gives it to you straight, it tells the truth, and it gives you the facts that no one else will tell you. If you want to succeed with women - this is the book that will tell you how.


From the Inside Flap
How did April Masini know she’d finally made it? She was attacked by Ms. Magazine. It wasn’t her achievements, her brains, her beauty, her accomplishments in business, show business, and life— those things didn’t mark April Masini’s arrival in the ranks of American success, according to Ms. In fact, those things were a threat to Ms. and the feminist gang of ugly women who can’t succeed, and don’t just hate the men— but also, the women, like April—who do succeed. I know, because that’s how I met April. In early 2001, Ms. attacked both April and myself for embracing the reality that men are men and women are women—that you can’t fight age-old human nature. But the little-read magazine has become largely irrelevant to today’s women. In fact, it—and the radical movement of bra-burners and haters it represents—is an obstacle to the success of women like April. And they resent that she’s overcome that obstacle. They resent, also, the truths that won’t go away, truths that April brings forth in this very perspicacious book: Men like good-looking women (like April). And they want to protect them. In short, men want to be the man in the relationship. Unfortunately, Ms. and the movement it represents have one lasting legacy—they sent men into a world of dating confusion: To open the door or not to? To pay for the date or not to? To call or be called? The questions and problems created by the feminist movement—and its dangerous agenda of gender-role reversal—are endless. But here’s a reality check, encapsulated so well in April’s dating guide for life: Women want and need the strong men who like them and are willing to protect them. That must be why Ms. attacked April for helping produce "Baywatch." It was only the most watched television show around the world for 11 years. But feminists knew better. Attractive women and strong, muscular lifeguards who protect and save them—we can’t have that. Put the women in burqas and let them beat, dominate, and scare the men away. The same issue of Ms. that attacked April Masini for her women are more successful than fat ones. It featured articles on lesbian fairy tales for kids and a transsexual scientist. A centerfold of an ugly woman in men’s underwear with thick tufts of underarm hair, Ingrid Rivera-Dessult, accompanied the article, "Call Me Woman." I’d call her many things, but "woman" isn’t one of them. Ads for "Bitch Magazine," "feminist ecovillages," and one that asks "Ever dream of owning a woman’s sex toy store?" No, that wasn’t my dream, but it must be for feminists who’ll need a lot of toys, since they’ll never have the genuine male article. You can see how April and her outlook on life are a strong threat to these strange characters. The Ms./NOW/Steinem/Friedan agenda is a phony guide for men in how they should treat and interact with women. April Masini’s book is the real thing. Most women don’t want sensitive, pseudo-gay, hen-pecked, metrosexuals who won’t hold open the door, pay for dates, and take charge. We don’t need or desire Mr. Moms. Yuck. Men, don’t listen to that feminist propaganda put forth by the ugly, overbearing chicks who can’t get a date. Take it from April. Whatever happened to the day when men took charge and knew how to court women? Ms. and the gang of other assorted feminists took it away. But April and "Date Out of Your League" are taking it back. If you want to date women in combat boots, brush cuts, and WNBA clothing, then this book is not for you. But for everyone else—men and women, alike, April Masini’s "Date Out of Your League" is must reading.

No Excuses Date Out of Your League is not just a little black book of seduction secrets. It is not just another "how to bed a babe" manuscript, and it is not a secret potion that will instantaneously turn you into a "chick magnet." Date Out of Your League is an indispensable crash course in effectively attracting, dating, and bedding the women usually confined to fantasies, utilizing a simple strategy and formula for success that transcends winning with women, to winning in the boardroom, and in life. It will challenge you to examine your concepts of dating, your perception of failure and rejection, as well as your overall attitudes—the stuff that either makes you … or breaks you. You may be wondering right about now what makes one person’s approach to women, and to life, better than anyone else’s. Better than, say, your own. Well, it’s a valid question. And the answer comes in the very appropriate form of a single word: success. And a man who, in part, inspired this book with his extraordinary life and who embodies that word, success, more than any other person I know. He is a man who lived—and continues to live—an extraordinary life. Extraordinary, not because of his wealth, and his fame, and his wild success with women, but because of how he achieved these things. Or rather, how he achieved them in spite of the enormous obstacles and overwhelming odds stacked against him. I refer to a man who started off with the humblest of beginnings—working in a Tootsie Roll factory at the age of 10—and who ended up dating some of the world’s sexiest and most breathtakingly beautiful women, as well as owning some of the world’s most glamorous and expensive homes. This man, although shy, applied the same focus, tenacity, and basic principles to meeting and dating these sexy women as he applied to his business; creating and implementing a system and a philosophy that virtually guaranteed his success. Though you may not know him by name, you’ll likely know his work—he created and produced such television shows and series as Star Search, Solid Gold, LifeStyles of the Rich & Famous, RunAway with the Rich & Famous, SuperModel of the World (with the Ford Modeling Agency), and Entertainment Tonight ("ET"). I refer to a man, who, in spite of the 35-plus Emmy Awards his television series and movies of the week have won, the household names he’s discovered, the concept-driven shows he created that have launched entire networks, and in spite of a track record of success that has given him the unique distinction of being one of the few in television to never have a miss, continues to treat the guy on the street like the hairman of the board. I speak of a man who is one hundred percent self-made and humble to the core. A man whose manners are impeccable. Whose personal style exudes class and elegance. And whose word is his bond. No contract needed. If he says it, you can bank on it. Passionate, dynamic, driven, and excited about his life, he is someone who believes you create your own opportunities. "Life owes you nothing", he would say. "Don’t make excuses–make it happen!" "Don’t rationalize. Take responsibility. Take action." "Make every day count. It’s a day that will never come again." "Do it! No, not tomorrow. Do it now!" Not simply motivational thoughts or call to action concepts—these words are a reflection of a man who single-handedly took a "nobody" from "nowhere" and turned himself into a "somebody." The man is Al Masini, and this book is dedicated to him.

Grrrlfriend -- you are GORGEOUS! And obviously, IMMENSELY qualified to write "Date Out of Your League!" I think the topic of "out of my league" is something that is universal, and fascinating (I have 49 million readers nationwide, and many are men... I see this subject cross my desk SOOOOO often!).

"Date Out Of Your League" is more than a great dating book - it is a book that will inspire you to be all you can be ... to say nothing of April Masini, a woman who inspired me to act on my hopes, dreams, goals, and ambitions, this, after one 45 minute interview with her.

"Date Out of Your League" is perspicacious and a must read. It￯﾿ﾽs the real thing.

Mel Risdon - The Calgary Sun

It￯﾿ﾽs the fantasy of all stocky, short, wimpy, balding insecure, shy and just-your-average-Joe kind of guys: Having an absolutely beautiful woman fall head over heels in love with you. The idea glamorized in reality shows such as ￯﾿ﾽAverage Joe￯﾿ﾽ and ￯﾿ﾽMy Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance￯﾿ﾽ, is not new. After all, could the loudmouth, oversized Fred Flintstone really snare lovely Wilma￯﾿ﾽYet April Masini, herself a stunning former model/actress, insists it can happen.
