Then one morning, on her way to work, she exchanges a lingering look with a man so devastatingly attractive he takes her breath away. Adam Tallis is the essence of every female fantasy -- a daring mountain climber who has been hailed as a hero. As a lover, he is more passionate than Alice`s wildest imaginings. Soon, there isn`t anything or anyone she wouldn`t give up to stay by his side. Now, all she has is Adam, and life with this stranger will take her to new heights of madness...and fear.
