Genelle Davis came to Germany to create art, not fall in love.

Focused on launching her documentary project about the legacy of Audre Lorde, Genelle finds herself immersed in the charm of Cologne’s cobblestone streets, Christmas markets, and centuries of history. The last thing she expects is Jakob Adler—a gruff German bar owner with a complicated past and eyes that see right through her.

Their worlds couldn’t be more different. She’s used to comfort and safety; he’s spent his life surviving. But somewhere between stolen glances, heated arguments, and shared dreams, they discover what neither of them was looking for: home.

As family secrets unravel, danger lurks, and Christmas approaches, Genelle faces a life-changing decision—return to everything she’s ever known or stay and build something entirely new. With love, loss, and the power of choosing yourself, Lost & Found in Germany is a sweeping Black travel romance that reminds us: sometimes, the place you were never meant to stay becomes exactly where you belong.

Perfect for readers who love:
✨ Black women in love abroad
✨ Slow-burn interracial romance
✨ Christmas market magic
✨ Emotional family drama and redemption arcs
✨ Strong heroines choosing love and themselves
