From Ruin

A Novel by S.A. Ross

In the quiet aftermath of a broken world, Galah Dowe is holding everything together, barely.

At the edge of a small community built on survival and slow healing, Galah manages a care facility with patience, precision, and a fortress of rules. She’s built her life around order and control, tending to everyone’s needs but her own.

Then Omi arrives, charming, and carrying a magic that dances dangerously close to her carefully buried past.

As the town prepares for its annual Gratitude Festival, the vines that line the facility begin to stir with a strange resonance. Forgotten systems awaken. Secrets whisper beneath the roots. And Galah is forced to confront the grief she’s never outrun along with the quiet longing she’s never dared to name.

Lyrical, wry, and steeped in soft magic, From Ruin is a post-collapse story of found family, fragile hope, and the slow, stubborn process of trusting love after loss.
A character-driven debut for readers who believe resilience can be quiet—and that healing is its own kind of revolution.
