Portland, Maine & Colorado – Present Day 

Mixologist Jules Carson has been friends with the Ryder-White sisters for years, which has led to her working for them on a contract basis. At a Valentine’s Day charity gala hosted by the Ryder-White family, Jules is seated next to billionaire businessman Gavin Kaye. Sparks fly between them, and he lets her know that he would like them to spend the night together. Jules demurs, though leaving hints that it might happen at a later time. What Gavin doesn’t know is that the seemingly worldly Jules is a virgin. When she needs help for a long-time family friend in securing financial assistance to hang onto her business, it is Gavin she turns to in a last-ditch effort. 

Jules intrigues Gavin, but he won’t force anything on her. However, he can’t keep his mind off her, and when she asks him for help, he agrees to go to Colorado to meet her friend and see if he can find something in the woman’s finances that will help save her business. Jules and Gavin end up being stranded alone that first night, which leads them to the bedroom. Can he get past the walls that Jules has put up to find out what makes her tick? 

Gavin and Jules have a lot going on in LOST AND FOUND HEIR by Joss Wood, the latest in her DNA Dilemma series. His mother has worked for the Ryder-White family for years and Gavin has pretty much figured out that his unknown father is none other than the head of the family, Callum Ryder-White. They look alike and have the same medical syndrome. His mother refuses to discuss it and Gavin isn’t sure he wants to confront the old man. Then one day, Callum’s son, James, pays Gavin a visit. What he learns shocks him to the core. How will it change his future? 

Jules spent her childhood on the run with her mother from an abusive father. They were always on the move, which is why she rarely settles down in one place for long, though Portland (and the Ryder-White sisters) have become her home base. Jules has mixed feelings when it comes to Gavin. She’s attracted to him, but she’s not ready to give her heart to any man. Can he break down the barriers she’s put up? A trip to Colorado just might do the trick. 

Things are complicated for both Jules and Gavin in LOST AND FOUND HEIR. Can they find their way to happiness? How much will their lives change from the beginning of this tale to the end? You’ll find the answers by picking up a copy of LOST AND FOUND HEIR.
