Before his worldwide whirlwind romance with Katie Holmes, Tom Cruise tried wooing Jennifer Garner, according to a new book by Andrew Morton.

As Us Weekly reports in its latest issue, on newsstands now, Tom Cruise: An Unauthorized Biography makes startling charges about the actor.

Morton writes that Cruise left messages on the Alias star’s voice mail in 2004 asking “if she knew what freedom was,” but his advances were rebuffed.

The book also claims Holmes signed a contract to commit to Scientology and that her father brokered a high-paying pre-nup.

Holmes was not asked about the book’s claims during her promotional appearances on Good Morning America, Live with Regis and Kelly, or The Late Show with David Letterman.
