a true hero!

Raul Escobedo is nothing like his suavy, outgoing twin brother Damian. So he just does not see how he can pull off impersonating him and taking his comp trip to Las Vegas. However his brother convinces him to do it since he has to go to Las Vegas anyway to attend an interview for a teaching position at UNLV. Damian's insistence is made stronger by convincing Raul he needs a vacation after the heartache of being jilted by his fiancee.As soon as Damian aka Raul arrives in the glittering city, he knows he is way out of his depth. But his spirits lift when he sees the lovely Adriana de Los Santos whom is in charge of quest relations for the hotel.Adriana immediately senses Damian is not what he seems, which is a high roller, so she sets out to find out the truth. She soon learns from his file he has a twin brother.....the gig is up!Raul is an honorable man and quickly realizes he can not continue the dishonesty and comes clean with Adriana just as she comes to bust him herself.He decides to stay at the hotel as he is very attacted to Adriana and he senses Adriana is attracted to him as well, but he feels her emotional distance. In a grand city of glitter and glamour, their love grows and both begin to realize it is the best bet either of them could ever hope to win.This is tenderly told story of a sweet romance. Of two well matched people that are brought together at a time that neither of them expected love to happen for them, which can be the best experience for anyone to hope for. When a woman is uncertain of her capability to love....her best bet is a man like Raul. He is a true hero!
