The Lost and Found - (Beauty from Ashes) 2nd Edition by E L Irwin (Paperback)

About the Book

Grief doesn't have to be the end; beauty can rise from the ashes bringing new life and a blossoming love story in this steamy, yet clean and closed door romance.

Book Synopsis

Grief, in all its many forms, is a tortuously beautiful beast, changing one fully from the inside out when permitted to come to fruition.

Sometimes love pushes you to the edge...

When tragedy shatters Crimson Sage's world, strength feels like a cruel myth. Still reeling from loss, she's forced to confront a painful truth, and her survival demands more than grit-it demands heart.

Sometimes love forces you to fight...

Enter Josiah, the rugged foreman whose dangerous charm and addictive presence turn her life upside down. When he slings her over his shoulder and tosses her into the ranch's pond with a gruff ultimatum-sink or swim-Crimson learns that love can be as brutal as it is beautiful.

Sometimes love blooms in the most unexpected places...

In the raw, untamed landscape of the Idaho wilderness, heartbreak lingers like dust in the air, and secrets never stay buried. But Crimson and Josiah's fiery connection sparks hope from the ashes of despair, offering second chances, because sometimes you have to be lost in order to be found.

The Lost and Found is a closed door romance featuring he falls first, forced proximity, and protective hero tropes-be sure to read the Author's Note at the beginning for trigger warnings.
