About the Book
Using multiple personas, Lucias Maddox Moore followed Meagan Winston on her travels for three years, learned from her ability to smile and make friends, and gained confidence as he began his international drug trade. He needs to show Meagan how much she means to him.
Meagan Winston loves working at Rahab's Rope in Gainesville, Georgia, selling jewelry and other creative items made by rescued trafficked women in India. On each of her journeys to Mumbai the past few years, however, drugs have also made the trip, and she is the only connection the FBI can find.
When bulky former Marine Cole Fleming enters her shop demanding answers, Meagan at first refuses but eventually is taken in for questioning. Can Meagan trust her own heart as Cole discovers and begins to track a possible stalker, or is Cole the man secretly following her?

More Reader Response to The Shadow:
"I loved it. Very suspenseful. Loved that there wasn't foul language and graphic sex. I will definitely recommend it to friends." - Lynn
..".brilliantly written, quite professional, and has an intriguing plot which holds its reader captive." - Jeanie
"I absolutely loved The Shadow! Kimberly Rae is one of my favorite authors, and this is one of her best! It's captivating from the very beginning, and hard to put down. Meagan is just back from India after working with a group that rescues women in brothels, trafficked victims who've been sold against their will. But now she is being carefully watched and accused of an international crime! It will intrigue you with its mystery, suspense, romance, humor, and faith in God. The characters are all so realistic and interesting; this book kept my attention all the way through. Rae always handles the subject of human trafficking appropriately - she makes you think seriously about the stark reality of this illicit crime that's going on all around us, without putting your mind in the gutter. Her life-changing books are always clean and Christ-centered, and leave you with a feeling of hope. I highly recommend this book." - Sue
..".wonderful, I loved it!" - Melody
"I was terrified from the very first page. I couldn't put this book down! It has it all: two love stories, parallel missions, and justice--mixed with lunatic danger and a drug investigation. I loved Shadow!" - Lou Ann
"I had almost given up on reading fiction because everything I had attempted to read lately was so trite and frivolous, but this book renewed my interest. This newest book by Kimberly Rae was a real attention grabber from the word go." - Sue
About the Author :
Award-winning, Amazon bestselling author of 20 books, Kimberly Rae loves to write stories full of romance, suspense, and making a difference. She has been published over 200 times and has work in 5 languages. Rae lived in Bangladesh, Uganda, Kosovo and Indonesia. She rafted the Nile River, hiked in the hills around Mount Everest, and tried cow brains just to say she'd done it! She now lives in North Carolina at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains with her husband and two young children. Rae's 3 books in her STOLEN SERIES on human trafficking (Stolen Woman, Stolen Child, Stolen Future) all are Amazon Bestsellers. Since the release of her trilogy on human trafficking, Rae has become a sought-after speaker and trainer on the topic. Recognizing the lack of books about slavery and trafficking that focus on those who are making a difference rather than glorifying the evil or being overly graphic or despairing, she has also since created a series on modern day slavery for teens and pre-teens (Capturing Jasmina, Buying Samir, and Seeking Mother), and recently completed a resource for adults to help train children to recognize and avoid childhood sexual abuse (I AM SAFE), a major risk factor in childhood and adult exploitation. Printable handouts and other resources, as well as autographed books, are available on her website, www.kimberlyrae.com. "People out there care and want to make a difference," Rae says. "I love getting to help them do that." Interview with Author Kimberly Rae For you personally, what is the best thing about being a writer? I love writing because you never know who you are going to touch with your work. You write, then offer up what you have (like the little boy with the five loaves and two fish) and then watch what God does with it! When did you start writing? When I was 10, my parents gave me a kid's typewriter for Christmas. I used to pluck away writing my own little Nancy Drew stories. Then I'd tape them all together. I've been writing ever since! How have real-life struggles contributed to your writing or a particular book you've written? I'd have to say the biggest struggle that's affected my writing would be living with a disease. There are a lot of books on chronic illness out there that are written by healthy people, but I don't find those encouraging. =) Those of us who live with chronic illness sometimes just want something funny, someone to say it stinks, I understand, and you can make it through this day. With Addison's disease, hypoglycemia, asthma, scoliosis and a cyst on my brain, I can certainly say I understand! What's up next for you? The India Street Kid Series on trafficking for teen girls. Since the average age for a teen girl in America to be trafficked is 12-14, we need to be teaching them about this long before most of us realize. The series will be adventurous and exciting, and give info in small, age-appropriate doses without scaring parents. I'm excited about the possibilities! What advice would you give aspiring writers? Don't give up! You have a unique voice and a message to give the world. Don't take rejection personally-in the beginning I told myself to expect to be rejected 9 times out of 10. It gets easier over time. Keep learning. Join a writer's group if you can and learn to enjoy constructive criticism-it really will help you become a better writer. I've got a bunch of blog posts on writing under the 4WRITERS tab, so hop on over there and maybe you'll find something that will help you along the way. Happy writing!
