Kate Winter teaches dog owners how to train their canine companions. During her spare time, accompanied by her Lab, Dakota, she explores the woods and beaches on foot or horseback. She’s worried that something’s happening in her relationship, but she can’t get her girlfriend Trish to talk to her about it.
Faith Hutchins recently lost her sight after a terrible outdoor accident. She’s dealt with her anger, depression, and blindness primarily on her own. A seeing-eye dog would help alleviate her reliance on anyone else, but the guide dog school has been unsuccessful in providing her with one. On a mission to find someone who will train a dog specifically for her, she ultimately zeroes in on Kate.
They say lightning never strikes the same place twice. But positive lightning is notoriously unpredictable and can ignite a fire when and where least expected . . . no matter who’s in its path.
“Author Laurie Salzler’s knowledge of all things canine and equestrian shows through in this story, and her details about dog training and horsemanship give an added dimension to the story that animal lovers will appreciate.” — Anna Furtado, Lambda Literary Review

Originally from the United States, Laurie now calls the Northern Rivers of coastal New South Wales, Australia, home. She lives in a small town alongside the Clarence River with her three dogs, Maine Coon cat, and a cheeky Stockhorse named Harry.
As a member of a local wildlife rescue organization, she is active in preserving her town’s population of endangered koalas, which often-times finds her face-to-face with sick and very cranky animals. Laurie also heads her region’s Emergency Response Team, which conducts searches and performs triage for wildlife during emergencies such as bushfires and floods, as well as heat events, which adversely affect bats and flying foxes. Thankfully she’s retired from the workforce.
In addition to the works published under Laurie Salzler, she has also co-authored two books under the pen name of Laurie Eichler.
