Today the
amazing Mr 'X' will
be joining me on my blog and I’m
already hot under the collar to be meeting New York’s male equivalent to Carrie
Bradshaw, to be honest I’m
not sure if I will come out of this meeting alive.
My thoughts on
his book.
I read this book
over three days as I was unable to stop. The story was originally written in a
note book, and to me it hasn’t
lost that feel giving the story true authentic appeal. It’s not over worked or over written
its 296 honest pages of an extraordinary man’s life.
The book is full
of random dilemma’s
that Mr ‘X’ face’s in the early stages of helping his
friends set up their exclusive makeover agency for the privilege lady.
Friendships are tried and tested as the three important women in ‘X’ life
are fighting for not only his hand in marriage but (cough…cough) his affections in every way possible.
Each of the
dates in the book is unique to the lady receiving the service. ‘X’ man
is pushed to the limits of his abilities to ensure that each lady leave’s him feeling
satisfied. At one point he even has to break into a bank to give his client the
date she deserves.
The story takes
a sad twist and for this you see the man that appears to have it all, the
money, charm, appeal, ladies and a great set of friends feel as though he has
nothing. This is a very emotional part of the book that has been written from
deep within his heart revealing his sensitive side.
The book is
packed with giggles, the most hilarious thanks giving dinner and cringie but
brilliant wedding episode.
Let’s
get down to business and meet the man between the (paper) sheets…
Welcome ‘X’ Man. Normally one of my first questions is why did you write this book.
That’s explained from the outset but for the people that haven’t discovered what you
have to offer between the pages please give us a brief insight.
As you know I
was trying to win back a woman I lost due to my reckless actions with her
bosses wife in an elevator. Helen asked me to become the subject of her book
and if I did this for her she would allow me back into her life after she ran
away from me.
My other partner
in crime Angie threatened my life if I did not complete this book project that
has made me meet more women than Prada. During that span of time covered in the
book I understood that Helens quest to have me date the world via her book
became my road back to myself and the people I love.
This book will
forever be about them and me during our time together as we learned the value
of life, friendships and love.
From the book I
understand you would not call yourself an author, but I’m sure everybody is
gagging to know, will you be treating us ladies to a second insight to your
world?
The crazy thing
about releasing that book was the response it got from women who I never met
before. I know I don't live a normal life, but somehow women from all around
the world wanted to become a part of my life. I get emails in languages I don't
know contacting me in ways that would make E L James blush.
This made Helen
and Angie ambush me one night at a club and demand I write more books as Mr. X.
This all happen a few months after the ending of this book.
I just went back
to my life not as Mr. X in New York while the world began to want Mr. X.
It took several
attempts on my life and a few interesting bribes, but in the end the book mafia
extorted four more books out of me. Book 2 Mr. X - The Beginning will take
everyone back to the time I came back to New York and began my PR firm and my
life in New York. It was an interesting time for me since I had no one in my
life at that time and you get to see how my gang and I came together in my
quest to conquer New York.
(Yay!)
So tell me what is Mr ‘X’ normal daily routine from waking up to going to bed?
I will only
speak about my bed. :)
It is normally
around 11:00am and it involves me saying good morning to a picture from Miami I
have near my bed of a special angel that owes me a dance.
Then it's off to
the world’s most empty designer kitchen for
coffee while I try to become normal.
I find a suit
and begin my day of meetings, and making money.
I always have
lunch with a woman.
The smile of a
woman during a lunch date is something that I will always do until the end.
I normally meet
one of the gang members for afternoon tea or coffee and try to fend off anymore
Mr. X extortions which is a never ending battle with Helen and Angie. By the
afternoon I hit the gym and use my body in ways that don't involve me getting
in to trouble. :)
Once the evening
hits I make it a point to never eat dinner alone or at home.
I meet women
everyday from all over the world here in New York and that adds the spice to my
dinner and everything that follows after that evening.
If you was going to
take me on a date what could I expect (crosses fingers and hopes for the best)
You amaze me
with your schedule and focus to your horses and your kids.
So here goes:
I would send a
car for you at the airport after your long trip from the UK.
I would have a
suite ready for you at the Hudson Hotel so you could rest that first night but
be near me until we meet in the morning. (I live a few steps away.)
In the morning I
would meet you for a late breakfast / lunch so that I can begin the process of
taking you out of your world and into mine.
After our
conversation involving wine and smiles that can only be found on first dates, I
will take you for a walk in Central Park so I can learn to match your rhythm of
walking as I always look for a way or reason to hold your hand.
I would then
take you over to a spot that keeps the last of New York's riding horses and
have you select one for a afternoon ride in the park.
After your horse
is back with his friends I would take you back to your suite in order for you
to get ready for dinner with me at one of my favorite restaurants here in the
city.
After I feed you
and deplete the world of another bottle of wine, I will kidnap you to a lounge
for further drinks and conversations that will lead us deeper into the night.
Then I will ask
you if you want to miss your flight in the morning?
(Sorry...i was just booking my ticket...just leave me here
daydreaming about that...please)
Okay back to business...
You/Mr ‘X’ is a complete mystery to us… describe yourself … Honestly
I was raised by
a pack of wolves that wore Gucci. :)
Ok, here goes:
I am 43
I am 6'2
I have an
incredible smile that keeps me in business and in trouble.
I was born here
in New York and was raised by my Grandfather who was a gentleman and a lover of
women. He taught me that a man has to be whatever makes a woman happy.
So to answer
your question, Mr. X is whatever you need me to be. :)
Other than dating what’s your favorite pastime?
Enjoying life in
everyway I can find.
I now find myself
replying to emails from women all around the world thanks to this book.
On average I am
a New Yorker at heart so I spend a lot of my time just meeting and talking to
amazing people that live here in my city. You don't have to be a model or rich
to get my attention. I love people and if you ever find yourself here in New
York talking to a very nice stranger in a designer suit who pays for your
dinner.
It's me.
(hehe sorry...i couldn't resist)
If I offered you a
drink from the bar what would it be?
I would offer
you a drink first.
A Mojito with
one shot of rum. (Two if I plan to get us in trouble.)
Your five famous top
dinner guest (past and present people included)
That runs to
close to giving up my identity. :)

answer that without a lawsuit.

Oh well we had better
let you go and entertain…Thank you for joining me and giving
me the pleasure of spending some time in your life. I loved every minute of
it.
