An emotional contemporary romance from New York Times and USA Today bestseller Roni Loren, primed for TikTok's "books that make you ugly cry" lists.

Twelve years ago, tragedy struck a sleepy Texas town. Only a small number of those impacted survived— a group the media dubbed The Ones Who Got Away. This is their story.

Never admit the truth - Taryn Landry was there that awful night Long Acre changed from the name of a town to the title of a national tragedy. Everyone knows she lost her younger sister. No one knows it was all her fault—or the guilt she carries with her every day.

Never look back - As the older brother of the troubled shooter, Shaw Miller has spent more than a decade dealing with the fallout. After losing everything—his chance at Olympic gold, his family, almost his sanity—he's changed his name, his look, and he's finally starting a new life free from the shadow of the horrible thing his brother did.

Shaw and Taryn weren't meant to meet each other. They weren't meant to fall in love. Now they're left grappling with undeniable feelings, both of them wondering—when the world defines you by a tragedy, how do you defy the odds to build your own happy ending?

By turns heart-wrenching and deeply romantic, this award-winning spicy contemporary romance will challenge the way you see life, love, and happily ever after.

About the Author

Roni wrote her first romance novel at age fifteen when she discovered writing about boys was way easier than actually talking to them. Since then, her flirting skills haven't improved, but she likes to think her storytelling ability has. She holds a master's degree in social work and spent years as a mental health counselor, but now she writes full time from her cozy office in Dallas, Texas where she puts her characters on the therapy couch instead. She is a two-time RITA Award winner and a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author.
