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.
