Blood Storm is a category length Romance with Suspense elements. Contains some violence and sexual situations.
When Kate Merrill's father, a reclusive biochemist, accidentally drowns, she's grief stricken. They'd barely spoken in the past year and now there's no chance to tell her only parent how much she loved him. Shortly after his funeral, a strange package arrives with her father's handwritten note asking Kate to deliver it to his associate in Atlanta. She considers the journey an opportunity for redemption and vows to fulfill her father's last wishes. Little does she realize the locked metal box contains a formula to combat the effects of an impending bioterroism attack and the "associate" is actually a scientist at the Center for Disease Control.
Ex-cop Sam Holden escaped a tainted past and painful memories to work as a Wilderness First Responder in the rugged Sierra Nevada mountains. He enjoys the solitude and doesn't mind long, isolated winters dotted with the occasional rescue of a stranded winter sports enthusiast. But his cop instincts flare to the front when he witnesses an attack on a small aircraft by a helicopter gunship.Rushing to the scene on his snowmobile in the wake of a sudden blizzard, he finds Kate injured but still breathing and transports her to his primitive cabin until he can arrange for an airlift.
Sam and Kate are instantly drawn to each other.Waiting out the cold, raging blizzard is nothing compared to controlling the searing desire blazing inside the small cabin.
When Sam breaks opens the mysterious package against Kate's wishes, he realizes his peaceful mountain top is about to become a hotbed of danger. Torn between the attraction he feels for his patient and the need to thrust her from his life, Sam reluctantly agrees to take Kate to the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta.
The couple begins a cross country race to reach the CDC with the terrorists right behind them. Kate is blinded by the growing love she feels for Sam and vows not to lose him like she did her father. Her actions become rash and erratic, thrusting both of them into a life threatening danger. But Kate's greatest fear is not dying at the hands of the terrorists - it's losing her heart to a man who has forgotten how to love.
