Y’all…my first interview about Catching Dawn. I was so nervous but Kaila Burns-Heffner was so good she even made me feel comfortable. I’m forever grateful.

What would you do to save a life?

Night delivers a litter of eight puppies in a poor neighborhood in Springfield, Tennessee the week before Melissa Armstrong meets her. As a volunteer for a local nonprofit, Melissa has experience with strays and plans to rescue Night and her litter within days. But nothing goes as planned. For the next six months, Melissa and a ragtag cast of characters try to trap the mutt with nets, catchpoles, spring traps, cheeseburgers, hot dogs stuffed with Benadryl, and the dog’s crying puppies. They fail so many times that Melissa is on the brink of giving up. But when she learns about the brutal way the local police department controls the overpopulation problem in Night’s neighborhood, she reaffirms her promise to a dog. She vows to rescue her, no matter the consequences.

Lauren Adams edited this book trailer for me. If you don’t know who she is, you should. She’s a badass editor and her work is famous for stirring emotions. Believe me, Lauren’s features have made me laugh and cry multiple times. And she’s just starting to make her mark in the creative world. You can find her here: @idoidoido
