A big thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebook/Casablanca for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I believe this is part of a series. This is a moving story, I laughed and cried. It talks about a survivor of the Long Acre HS shooting, their trauma, and guilt, and trying to move on. Gary is a strong woman, who has built of her own, she has fantastic friends who support her! Shaw on the other hand is built ridden with not so much emotional support. I was impressed with the sensitivity the author used on this very emotional subject. I rate this book a 4.5. I think most romance readers will enjoy this book.

Roni Loren's The Ones Who Got Away series tells the story about the survivors of the Long Acre High School shootings. Years later the characters are still dealing with guilt, PTSD and all the media attention. The books are focused primarily on the romance, but also how to live and love after a catastrophic event,
