love that I could see into her mindset and read exactly what she was feeling when she thought out situations. Her thoughts flowed well and moved the book along very which makes for an engaging read.
Love this author and always look forward to her work.

Cassidy Clarke travels to the camp where she and her friend Mason spent their summers to scatter his ashes. She doesn’t know where to do it or how long it’ll take for her to be ready, but she’s staying until the time is right, and she has some healing to do while she’s there. She and Mason drifted apart over the years, and Cassidy lives with that guilt. Eight months ago, tragedy left Francesca Sisto lost and broken. She’s taken the job of caretaker for the camp, but mostly she’s just locked herself away. She’s not excited about the visitor, but as the two grow closer together, maybe they’ll find healing in each other.

I enjoyed this sweet romance. It’s a good character study of each lady and the changes they start to make with one another seem promising, but they’ll have to decide if they can stay together and what that will mean in terms of healing and going back out into society after this period of isolation for them. Definitely check it out for a good love story.

I enjoyed the book and story telling but this one makes your heart heavy. The loss and guilt journey always does. The way that Cassidy and Frankie shared in their darkness was well written. They come together slowly (but not easily) to lift and support each other which I found beautiful.

Not a light beach happy beach read but definitely a lovely well told story.

This was a lovely read from Beers. The two MCs are Frankie, a chef who has retreated to a role as caretaker of an old summer camp in the Adirondacks to recover from a trauma and Cassidy, a previous summer camper, who is CEO of a company that makes candles and lotions and who has returned to the camp deal with a loss.

Frankie is enjoying the serenity of having the place to herself, so is not happy to have to share with Cassidy, but the two are immediately attracted to each other and eventually become friends, and then lovers. They help each other come to terms with the loss/trauma they’ve experienced and the guilt that is weighing them both down. Both characters are interesting on their own and they make a great couple, and I enjoyed their interactions. The forced proximity also allows them to get to know each other quickly, though it did seem a bit too quick for the “I love you” revelations.

There are some side-characters, with a family who runs the grocery shop in town befriending them both and adding some charm. Reiko, the 12 year old girl who escapes to the camp regularly is a highlight. Jack, and his dog Duke, nearby neighbours of the camp, are also lovely. Cassidy’s co-owner Jenna also features, and she annoyed me a bit, given that Cassidy was only gone a few weeks, I couldn’t figure out why she couldn’t run the company without constantly contacting Cassidy, and allowing her to actually grieve.

The ending is foreshadowed pretty much from the start, but I enjoyed the characters, and thought where they ended up made sense for them both. This is a nice, sweet read with no big melodrama between the characters. 4 stars.

I'm so glad I read this book. I put it off for a bit as I was nervous reading a book situated heavily in grief. I'm still struggling with my own grief after last year so to say I was apprehensive is an understatement. However, I think it was a great book for me to read as it deals with feeling those intense emotions but also the importance of moving on and coming to terms with those feelings.

Cassidy and Frankie were both great characters and they were super cute together. I loved the rural setting and all that went with it - especially the way Beers describes their cozy situation when they are snowed in. It truly sounded like a magical setting.

All in all, a great novel by Beers and I'm excited to read her latest book, Dance with Me, in the coming weeks.

Many thanks to Netgalley and Bold Strokes Books for a copy of this novel. ARC provided in exchange for an honest review.

"Camp Lost and Found" by Georgia Beers is a heartwarming and captivating romance novel that is sure to leave readers feeling satisfied. With well-developed characters, witty dialogue, and a charming setting, this book is a must-read for anyone who loves a good love story. Beers' writing is engaging and the plot is both sweet and steamy, making it a perfect choice for a lazy weekend read. The writing is honest and raw, and she captures the complexities of grief and finding solace in an unexpected place. MCs Frankie & Cassidy are well-drawn and feel like real people, and their love story is both heartwarming and heart-wrenching.

This is a must-read for anyone who loves a good romance novel, regardless of sexual orientation. I highly recommend this book to fans of the romance genre and anyone looking for a feel-good story that will leave them smiling from ear to ear.

Georgia Beers has eloquently captured the mindset of loss and guilt for Cassidy and Frankie. While it's inherently a love story, it's also a story of growth and forgiveness for yourself. Well done on all accounts.

I always love Georgia Beers stories because the characters she writes are always written in depth and are relatable right off the bat.
Frankie and Cassidy are no exception to this. Frankie, who is hiding from herself, and Cassidy, who trying to find herself, both find themselves pushed together in an old camp in a small town.
Both past traumas bring them together in understanding and need for companionship.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves to read in depth characters, understands PTSD responses, and just lesbian romances stories.

Chockful of tropes, but in a good way. Very enjoyable, with a sweet romance and well rounded characters that make sense.

Cassidy contacts the owner of her now-closed childhood summer camp to stay for awhile. She wants to find herself and scatter her best friend's ashes at the place they both loved so much when they were kids.
What Cassidy doesn't know is there is a someone else at the summer camp's main house who is also trying to find herself.
Can the women help each other with what they are looking for?
This story is true Georgia Beers. There are some odd expressions in the book, but all in all, if you are a Beers fan, this will be to your liking.
I would recommend.

Great story between two women who yearn to find peace surrounded by woods and a fair amount of isolation from family and people in general. Both women need to heal for very different reasons and being unexpectedly forced into each other’s company irritates one and baffles the other. Eventually their healing paths not only cross but complement each other perfectly to find exactly what they needed not only in finding peace but also finding a happily ever after. Thank you to the author, BSB publisher, and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review;

This is the story of two people alone on a mountain looking for something. Both paralyzed with grief and guilt. Frankie is doing the upkeep of a run down Camp Lost and Found and has been keeping to herself for months. She ends up getting a guest as fragile as she is. Cassie lost her best friend at the camp and blames herself, so she goes to the camp to find the perfect spot to bury Mason’s ashes. At first they tolerate each other. Then they become friends and onto lovers. Each giving the other exactly what she needs to make them both whole. I loved this book.

This was such an excellent read. I loved how the two main characters grew with one another and learned how to deal with their grief and guilt. Although the book is set within a short space of time, their friendship felt like it developed naturally. The writing was engaging and the remote winter cabin setting had a life of its own. Definitely one worth reading for slow burn lovers.

3 stars. Cassidy Clarke wants to spread her friend, Mason's ashes. She knows she wants to scatter them at the place they both loved the most, the camp they went to as teenagers. She goes to the camp but does not expect a camp manager, Francesca Sisto, who is grumpy and does not want anything to do with her. Frankie is running from her own problems and hiding out at an old camp. They both need to confront their issues and move on.

This was not my favorite Georgia Beers book. I have read most of her books, and this is not one I would re-read again. I thought the characters were okay, and i felt like their relationship went awfully quickly from barely knowing each other to more. I didn't really feel the tension and like friendship between the two of them build. I was not sure even with the storyline, I felt like the book dragged a lot and it didn't have enough going for it. I wanted to like this book, but I am not sure about it. It was not a bad read, but it is not when I would recommend and one I will not back and read.

Emotional grief/guilt is the foundation of this read. Well, how to deal with grief/guilt. Cassidy Clark, successful business owner, needs to self-reflect and find herself. Francesca Sisto, talented chef, wants to hide herself and not deal with anyone. The two women come together and find that leaning on someone is not such a bad idea. I appreciated each character and felt how difficult it was to just let go of the past. The character self struggle was well written and I rode the ups and downs with each of them. I also wanted to hug Francesca's mother. What a pillar of strength. She was not going to be there for her daughter.

I was quite intrigued by the premise of ‘Camp Lost and Found’ because it centres around a very minimal cast of characters in an abandoned campground. Cassidy and Frankie have their own reasons for being there but both women believe that isolation can heal them of their trauma. Admittedly it doesn’t present as the most romantic of situations but I was surprised by the way Beers allowed each of them to slowly break down one another’s barricades of guilt and grief. This sapphic romance isn't about an instant and explosive attraction instead the beauty lies within Cassidy and Frankie giving each other the opportunity to acknowledge their pain and choose to grow from it. They give one another the ability to accept the things they can’t change but also the permission to choose what path they take next.
This is my first novel by Beers and I was struck by the beautiful storytelling and a intense slow burn that was tender and kept me turning the pages for Cassidy and Frankie. I appreciated the secondary characters in this limited cast because they all held a purpose and added poignancy to the storyline. It really was a gorgeous read and I really fell for the entire narrative focus of finding what you least expect but need most, in the unlikeliest of places.

I absolutely love Georgia Beers books and this one didn't fall short. The book was well written, and the characters fully developed. The Main characters were loveable., They had great chemistry and just were fun. The dialogue between them was amazing. The secondary characters were also nice. I definitely recommend. Well done!


Thank you, Bold Strokes Books, and NetGalley.

Cassidy and Frankie meet unexpectedly at a closed summer camp around Christmas. Cassidy was coming to spread the ashes of a friend and Frankie was running away from guilt from an accident. Cassidy is a CEO of her own company and Frankie was a chef. The characters are very different but also looking for something missing from their lives.. I liked the plot that revolves around their lives and how they became close during the snowy Nrw York winter, I recommend this book for all romance readers. . .
I received this book as an ARC from Netgalley for an honest review.

Without a doubt, camp lost and found is my favourite and final book of 2022!

I've struggled for many years with my own trauma and guilt. This book touched my heart and made me sit back and think about my own issues.

The book, for me, has a powerful storyline, and beautiful characters, and I instantly fell in love with the location the book was set.

If only we all had our own camp lost and found....

5 out of 5.

I really enjoyed this book and read it really quickly because I didn’t want to put it down. I really liked both Cassidy and Frankie and could feel the pain they were in. The supporting characters were great too but I loved how the story focused on the world they had created for themselves. They were kind and supportive of each other which makes a lovely change! And I loved what they did with the camp - I’d love to do something like that too!!
