Late one night, Lucas Russell gets the surprise of his life. A beautiful--and sexy--woman drops into his backyard. What else can he do but play knight in shining armor to rescue Bree Addison? And since he's wearing just a towel at the time...well, things move from surprising to steamy very quickly. While their fling is thrilling and sensual, Bree's got secrets, but her distracting suggestions are preventing Lucas from discovering them. Worse, this affair is on a time limit. How can he convince her to trust him enough to confess when he's got one foot out the door? But just as it seems all is lost, Lucas gets a little help from an unexpected--and supernatural--source.

A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.
