When Lightning Strikes is a contemporary sapphic romance featuring enemies to lovers, a bi-awakening, and chronic illness/disability rep.

Elise Novak

I never expected my first year of residency to be easy. However, returning home after eight years brings more trouble than I was prepared for.

When I’m captivated by a painting through a shop window, I discover the painter is none other than Logan Delaney.

She hates me, a fact she made perfectly clear before I left town.

The first time she touches me, it awakens a deep desire. To be touched again. By her. Can we both move on from the past? Or will she break my heart like she planned to do all along?

Logan Delaney

My brother’s death was the catalyst that brought this storm into my life, one that’s left a path of destruction in its wake. I’ve survived but just barely.

Then she returns to town. Elise Novak. She was there the night my brother died, the night that’s left me with more questions than answers. The night she claims not to remember.

I’d love nothing more than to show her just how vicious a storm can be.

When lightning strikes yet again, I don’t know if I’ll make it through. As the lines of hate begin to blur, could Elise be the sunshine I’ve always needed in my life?
