The Ones Who Got Away seemed like it was going to be a typical, steamy, romance novel with some kind of emotional drama. But what we got was so much more. I loved how the “serious” part of the book was about a high school shooting. There aren’t a lot of books (that I’ve found) about this topic, and I LOVED how the book starts several years after the shooting.

I like the cover okay in general. But I wasn’t a fan of it being for this book. The cover gives the feel of this book being about a billionaire athlete/businessmen who falls in love after lusting after his coworker/secretary/gardener even after claiming he would never fall in love. While, this book seems to be much more serious. It’s obvious there will be some “scenes” but I can’t tell this is also going to be an emotional train wreck. And I’m here for it.
