title: Storm Shadow
author: Paulsen, K.S.
description: The Pacific Rim: home to the largest animals on the planet, the deadliest drug runners on two continents, and one fiercely independent scientist determined to protect an endangered species from the impacts of a global conspiracy, even if it costs her the ultimate price. Kaitlyn O’Donnell is a marine biologist immersed in the most important project of her career when her life is catastrophically altered by a savage string of events. Trapped in the crosshairs of a malicious foe, she must outwit and outrun an enemy she doesn’t understand and never saw coming. To survive, she must trust a reclusive stranger with a stormy past and a dark secret, but trust doesn’t come easy to those who’ve been betrayed. Michael Storm was a man with a heart and a mission. When both were destroyed in a single blow, he retreated from the world, planning never to return. He didn’t expect lightning to strike twice in one lifetime.  When the sins of Michael’s past collide with Kaitlyn’s raging present, can they both outrun the storm shadow?
