The One That Got Away
by Charlotte Rixon
Head of Zeus
Two years together.
Twenty years apart.
One day to change their story.
2000. Benjamin’s world is turned upside down the night he meets Clara. Instinctively, he knows that they are meant for each other, but a devastating mistake on their last night at university will take their lives in very different directions.
20 years later, Clara has a high-profile job and a handsome husband. But despite the trappings of success, she isn’t happy, and she knows that a piece of her heart still belongs to Benjamin, the boy she fell in love with years earlier. The boy whose life she fears she ruined.
When a bombing is reported in the city where they first met, Clara is pulled back to a place she tries not to remember and the first love she could never forget. Searching for Benjamin, Clara is forced to confront the events that tore them apart. But is it too late to put right what went wrong?
Across the miles and spanning decades, Charlotte Rixon’s The One That Got Away is a sweeping, romantic story about growing up, growing apart, the people who first steal our hearts, and the surprising, winding roads that love can take us on.
A suspenseful, explosive story of intense first love gone wrong, and twenty years spent wondering “what if things had been different?”— Lovereading
