The One for You: a great ending for a fantastic series

The One for You by Roni Loren is the fourth and final book in The Ones Who Got Away series. Kincaid Breslin was on the hit list that night at prom. She wasn’t supposed to survive but she did. She doesn’t know why she got a second chance at life when so many others died, including her boyfriend, Graham, the one she feels was her soulmate. She has been determined to live life to the fullest and let no one get in her way. Ashton Isaacs was her best friend since childhood but when she needed him the most, he ran as far away as he could. Now, he’s back in town and Ash doesn’t know how to cope with his feelings for Kincaid and his grief over their lost friendship. He has a secret he knows would tear them apart for good. Does he keep his share for a chance with Kincaid? If the secret comes out, would she see Ash for what he really is: her soulmate? 

The One for You was an awesome book to end this series. It was sad to end the journey with these ladies but all good things must come to an end. Kincaid was always the fun-loving one of the group, so to get her story and see her vulnerabilities. The relationship dynamic between Kincaid, Graham, and Ash had a Cyrano de Bergerac feel. I laughed. I cried. I smiled as the stories of the Ones Who Got Away have a happily ever after. I highly recommend The One for You as well as the rest of the books in this amazing series. 


The One for You is available in paperback, eBook and audiobook.

The One You Fight For: another great book in The Ones Who Got Away series

The One You Fight For by Roni Loren is the third book in The Ones Who Got Away series. In this story, we get Taryn Landry’s story as she is determined to find the reason behind school shootings and prevent them from ever happening again. Not only was she there that night at the Long Acre prom when two teenage boys came in and started shooting, Everyone knows she also lost her younger sister that night, but no one knows that it was her fault. Shaw Miller has spent the years since the shooting dealing with the fallout of his younger brother’s tragic actions. After losing everything, his chance at the Olympics, his family and almost his sanity, he changed his name, his look and started a new life where he lives by one rule: Never look back. Shaw and Taryn weren’t meant to meet. They weren’t meant to be attracted to each other, But as they give in to their undeniable attraction, they are both wondering, hoping that even when the world defines you by a tragedy, can you have a happy ending? 

The One You Fight For takes another facet of a tragedy and presents it in a real, heart wrenching way. It follows the same hard hitting, in your face reality of those who live with regrets, pain and the fight to move forward. Taryn and Shaw both have guilt, a part to play in the tragedy and feel undue responsibility for that part as they try to live life in the aftermath. It is a story of love, loss, lies, redemption and the search for a happily ever after. Mixed in with the sorrow and pain, there is laughter, teasing and other lighter moments. I enjoyed Taryn’s drive to find the answers and to develop a program to make sure it doesn’t happen again. I also enjoyed Shaw’s vulnerability as he takes on the bad family label and tries to disappear into the shadows. I loved that Ms. Loren takes on the task to show that the reasons behind such tragedies aren't so cut and dry. I loved this book and it is a great addition to the series. I highly recommend The One You Fight For.

The One You Can't Forget: a sexy, heartwarming romance

The One You Can’t Forget by Roni Loren is the second book in the The Ones Who Got Away series. Rebecca Lindt is known as a survivor. She is admired for surviving the Long Acre shooting but she feels like an imposter, undeserving to be one who got away when so many others died. As nothing can change the past, she throws herself into her work. Never slowing down to dwell on what she cannot change. Wes Garret is trying to get back on his feet. He lost his dream restaurant, his money and his mind after a vicious divorce. When he intervenes in a mugging and saves Rebecca, his life gets complicated. Rebecca was his ex-wife’s attorney. While he wants to hate her for her hand in his destruction, he can’t deny their attraction. When Rebecca’s secret is out at risk, they both discover that they need each other

I have been excited to read the rest of the series since I read book 1, The Ones Who Got Away. This book did not disappoint. Filled with love, romance, sexy flirty and heartbreaking moments, I cried, I laughed and I sighed. I rarely cry at books but this one had a scene which just broke my heart and I eagerly turned the page, hoping for a happy resolution. I loved Rebecca as a hard hitting divorce attorney who hid a deep secret. A secret that was eating her up. Wes was trying to rebuild his life after his ex-wife destroyed it. When a twist of fate, the two are brought together and the sparks fly. As romances go, we know Rebecca and Wes end up together, but how they get there is a great journey, I highly recommend The One You Can’t Forget.
