The Ones Who Got Away

Twelve years ago, a tragedy hit a sleepy Texas town. Few of the people caught up in it survived, and the media gave them a name: The Ones Who Got Away. The book follows two of those survivors.

Back then, Finn Dorsey was the star athlete and Liv Arias was the sharp-tongued Goth girl who knew how to get under his skin. They were an unlikely pair. One terrible night tore them apart, and Finn nearly got Liv killed.

In the present, Liv is ready to leave the past behind and move on from the trauma that marked her youth. Then she runs into Finn again, and closure gets harder to reach. They meet to say a final goodbye, but it turns into a passionate kiss, and the heat between them is as strong as ever.

This is a contemporary romance with an open, spicy heat level and a past-and-present structure, moving between that night and now. It leans angsty and emotional, with romance and some humor running through it. Liv and Finn have to work through broken trust and slowly healing hearts to find out whether something buried deep is worth fighting for. It is the first book in a series of four.
