Dear Reader
Las Vegas is a city that practically explodes with sights, sounds and sensation. Everything happens fast. Itâs excitingâ¦and in most cases, very temporary.
That was what Alexandra Lowell was expecting. She was going to Las Vegas for a short, no-regrets weekend with her friends.
But then trouble came calling. Wyatt McKendrick, a rich, gorgeous loner, stepped into this book and made her an offer she couldnât refuse. One that would keep her in the city temporarily. Fighting her attraction to him all the way.
So I had to wonderâ¦What would happen when the hourglass emptied and these two allergic-to-love people finally said goodbye? Maybeâ¦nothing? No love, no harm done?
Hmm, that could happenâbutâ¦this is Las Vegas, where the impossible becomes possible, and things a girl never imagined happeningâ¦happen. Even love.

Alexandra Lowellâs blog, pre-girlsâ weekend in Vegas:
This trip to Las Vegas may be sudden and unplanned (my good friend Serenaâs great idea after our friend Jayne was left at the altar), but I think itâs going to be a fantastic experience for all of usânot just Jayne.
All of usâMolly, Serena, Jayne and Iâcould use some time just to kick back, and Las Vegas is the kind of place to do it. Iâve never been there, but Iâve seen all the ads. Las Vegasâa place where people have no past and no future. How cool is that?
Weâre going to stay in a first-class hotel: McKendrickâs. On the website it looks gorgeous. Sumptuous. The kind of place where a girl goes to get pampered and forget her troubles.
Iâve had my share of troubles, so I canât wait for this weekend. Just my friendsâgirls out for a supercharged vacation with no men to complicate our lives. What could be more fun than that? Let me repeat that. NO MEN TO COMPLICATE OUR LIVES!!
Stop back soon, when Iâll update you on just what happened during our wild weekend. (But I can assure you that none of it will involve men, or anything remotely liable to lead a girl into something as crazy as love. That is just not going to happen.)
Excerpt from Alexandra Lowellâs profile:
Hometown: San Diego, California (where I am going back to after this trip to Vegas!).
Relationship Status: single forever. (Thereâs no reallife Prince Charming, and Iâm okay with that. Really, I am!)
Interests: my friends, my businessâcertainly not Wyatt McKendrick, my new boss
Favorite Quotations: âAct as if what you do makes a difference. It does.ââWilliam James; âIf you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun.ââKatherine Hepburn
About Me: I love cute and silly dangly earrings. Iâm a little bit driven, prone to doing ten things at once, and I love feeling that I can make a real difference in someoneâs life. In fact I have this teensy little problem with trying to help people too much at times. Especially guys. I help them, I fall for them, theyâre grateful and then theyâre gone.
Employer: back in sunny San Diego I work as a hotel front desk clerk, and I own a San Diego travel website. That, however, has changed (temporarily). A weekend in Las Vegas turned complicated, and I am soon to be (temporarily, as I said) working for Wyatt McKendrick, owner of McKendrickâs exclusive resort. Wyatt is tall, gorgeous, dark, mysterious, totally unattainable, and being around him is enough to make a girl crazy. Thank goodness Iâll be leaving Las Vegas soon. (Because I am so very temporary.)
ALEXANDRA LOWELL stared up at the shining façade of McKendrickâs of Las Vegas, the most exclusive hotel she would probably ever enter in her life, and hoped that this weekend wasnât a mistake. Her bank account was practically sobbing at the expense, but her friend Jayne was in desperate straits and in need of some serious escapism, so Alex was going to forget about that poor bank account. For now.
She smiled at her three friends. âIâm setting my mental countdown clock. Weâre going to have one awesome weekend in an alternative universe,â she told them cheerfully.
Serena chuckled. âAlternative universe, Alex? Itâs Las Vegas, not another planet.â
Alex gave her friend a patient smile. âSerena, come on. Youâve been in my apartment. I love it to pieces, I love finally having my own home, but itâs a little box. This isâ¦itâsâ¦â
âAn alternative universe,â Molly agreed with a laugh.
