Blurb
Can an injured ex ball player convince the woman he wakes up married to in Las Vegas to take a second chance on him?
After spending the last four months drowning his sorrows over the end of his baseball career, Jack Bishop finds himself winging through the blue skies to Las Vegas, not so ready to spend the weekend with some woman his best friend set him up with. He expects a paid escort. What he gets is the woman he walked away from ten years ago to pursue his passion, and she’s not very happy to see him.
Devyn Tate believes she’s quite capable of finding somebody to take her out to dinner. She’s
no longer looking for a lifelong promise. She has a commitment only to her battery-operated toy to fulfill that particular need. Yet her friends have managed to talk her into spending the weekend in Las Vegas, on a blind date of all things. They promise the guy is trustworthy. They insist that she should have fun. Unfortunately, fun is not what she envisions when she discovers Jack Bishop lying on the floor of her suite in nothing but his underwear that’s on backward, and she has a wedding ring on her finger.

What the hell am I thinking?
She wasn’t a one-night or even a two-night stand kind of girl. She
didn’t do fantasy sex. Hell, she
didn’t really do sex, period. It was okay. It
wasn’t great. Isn’t that why Roger had fallen into the arms of another warm
body? Well, that and the fact that her aspirations didn’t match up with his.
She needed to get out of there. She’d pay her friends back for the
room—somehow. Devyn took a step toward the door that appeared to be a mile
away.
The water stopped, freezing her mid-stride. Panic swelled. She spun in
all directions. Oh, God. Typically, she considered herself a strong woman, but
at the moment, she felt so out of her element, and a strong sense of foreboding
rolled over her. She needed a place to hide. Dive behind the sofa or behind the
heavy curtains?
A door opened and steam rolled into the hallway. The slap of wet feet
against ceramic tile pulled her gaze back to the hallway but didn’t encourage
her feet to move. Then the soft thud of footfalls on carpet and a deep hum
preceded the man about to make his entrance.
Devyn began backing up, hands out at her sides to avoid tripping over
furniture. The closer the humming got, the quicker she stepped, until she
smacked into the patio door, and sucked in a breath, just as he entered the
main room.
She couldn’t stop the immediate flood of arousal that shot through her
when she caught sight of the gorgeous hulking male specimen strolling into the
room, head down, large hands adjusting a fluffy white towel slung low on his
hips, his damp hair curling around the edges of his ears.
She licked her lips. Instinct. Gut feeling. Whatever it was—she knew. She couldn’t look. Yet she couldn’t close her
eyes. She noticed every little detail starting at his sexy feet. The dark hair
covering his legs. Could knees be sexy? Every hard line, every muscle of his
tight abdomen, as her gaze swept up, up and up, until she reached his face.
That face. She must have moaned, must have
made some small noise announcing her presence. His head jerked up and his eyes
rounded in surprise, his skin flushed from the shower, or from finding her in
his room?
Oh God, this has to be dream. Or maybe it was her fantasy after all.
“Devyn?”
“Jack.”

ReplyDeleteMatlab代写 领域中最大的困难是学生不能学会Matlab的基本语法。对他们来说,语言操作特别复杂,没有逻辑性。问题可能在于哪呢?当然,一定要看每个同学的情况,但是一般说来,专业基础是主要的因素。用Matlab语言编写程序需要用数学形式的程序,掌握数学相关的知识以后,才可以发挥Matlab的效力。这个特点使Matlab有一定的优势,这个语言的运行速度比别的语言的快得很。此外,Matlab的灵活性很高,可以自动地排除简单的错误。所以如果你的数学比较好,学习过程中你不会遇到太多的问题,但是学程序语言以前,还需要提高自己的数学能力。
