Taking Chances

An unexpected detour named Dustin...

She left her college plans and her family behind for the road trip of a lifetime. Now Miranda's ready to take on another huge challenge: climbing a mountain in Colorado. Miranda's always been afraid of heights, but that was before she met Dustin. He's tall, blonde, gorgeous, and he wants Miranda to be his climbing partner, all the way to the top.

Even though she's terrifed, Miranda can't bear to disappoint him. She just hopes he'll understand there's only one thing she's more afraid of than heights — and that's falling in love.
