The Knockemout Series Bookset: the complete collection of Things We Never Got Over, Things We Hide From The Light and Things We Left Behind by Lucy Score
The Complete Knockemout Trilogy in One Book Set

Fall in love with the complete Knockemout series by bestselling romance author Lucy Score with this three-book paperback box set.

Set in the chaotic, close-knit small town of Knockemout, Virginia, the trilogy follows three interconnected couples whose lives are shaped by romance, friendship, family, secrets and the kind of community that refuses to let anyone face trouble alone.

The box set includes all three bestselling novels:

1. Things We Never Got Over
2. Things We Hide From the Light
3. Things We Left Behind

Hodder catalogue listings describe this edition as the complete collection of Lucy Score’s three Knockemout novels and specifically highlight the couples Knox and Naomi, Nash and Lina, and Lucian and Sloane.

Book 1 – Things We Never Got Over

The series begins with Naomi Witt and Knox Morgan.

Naomi arrives in Knockemout while trying to help her estranged twin sister, but almost immediately finds herself stranded without her car, money or a plan.

Then she discovers something even more unexpected: the niece she never knew she had.

Knox Morgan prefers a quiet, uncomplicated life.

He has little patience for drama and even less interest in getting involved with a woman whose life appears to be falling apart around her.

Yet helping Naomi becomes increasingly difficult to separate from caring about her.

Sourcebooks officially identifies the novel as Knockemout #1, a paperback romance centred on Naomi and Knox.

Book 2 – Things We Hide From the Light

The second book follows Nash Morgan and Lina.

Nash is the chief of police in Knockemout and has always been known as the easier-going Morgan brother.

But after being shot, he is struggling with panic attacks, nightmares and the feeling that he is no longer the man everyone expects him to be.

Then Lina moves in next door.

She sees far more of Nash’s hidden struggles than he wants anyone to notice.

The attraction between them becomes difficult to ignore, but Lina is hiding her own reasons for being in Knockemout—and she has no intention of staying forever.

Sourcebooks confirms Things We Hide From the Light as Book 2 in the series and identifies the standard Bloom Books paperback at 592 pages.

Book 3 – Things We Left Behind

The trilogy concludes with Lucian Rollins and Sloane Walton.

Lucian is wealthy, powerful and driven by the need to erase the legacy of his abusive father.

Sloane is the one woman capable of challenging him at every turn.

They share history.

They share secrets.

And they share a level of mutual irritation that gradually becomes something far more complicated.

When their bickering turns into attraction, both have to confront the fact that they want fundamentally different things from the future.

Sourcebooks officially identifies Things We Left Behind as Knockemout #3 and confirms Lucian and Sloane as the central couple.

Correct Knockemout Reading Order

The trilogy should be read in this order:

1. Things We Never Got Over
2. Things We Hide From the Light
3. Things We Left Behind

The three books are interconnected and recurring characters appear throughout the series.

While each romance focuses on a different couple, reading them in order gives the best understanding of the friendships, family relationships and continuing Knockemout storylines.

Small-Town Romance

One of the strongest appeals of the Knockemout series is its small-town setting.

Knockemout is full of recurring characters, friendships, gossip, local businesses and people who become deeply involved in one another’s lives.

That creates a strong found-family atmosphere alongside the central romances.

Across the trilogy, readers can expect:

• Small-town romance
• Found family
• Grumpy/sunshine
• Protective heroes
• Friends-to-lovers elements
• Neighbours-to-lovers
• Enemies-to-lovers
• Slow-burn romance
• Family drama
• Romantic suspense
• Strong community ties
• Steamy contemporary romance

Three Distinct Couples

The box set gives readers three different central relationships.

Knox & Naomi bring grumpy/sunshine tension and unexpected family responsibility.

Nash & Lina explore vulnerability, recovery, secrets and emotional connection.

Lucian & Sloane bring years of history, enemies-to-lovers tension and unresolved emotional conflict.

Because the characters remain interconnected, the trilogy feels like one larger story even though each novel has its own primary romance.

Emotional Themes

Across the three books, Lucy Score explores themes including:

• Family
• Friendship
• Trauma
• Healing
• Parenthood
• Trust
• Second chances
• Commitment
• Found family
• Protection
• Emotional vulnerability
• Small-town community

The books blend humour and romance with more serious emotional storylines.

Adult Contemporary Romance

The Knockemout novels are written for adult readers.

They contain mature romantic and sexual content and should therefore be categorised as adult contemporary romance rather than YA.

Why Buy the Complete Box Set?

This edition is ideal for readers who want to binge the complete trilogy without purchasing the novels individually.

It is especially suitable for:

• Lucy Score fans
• Small-town romance readers
• Romance collectors
• Gift buyers
• Readers who prefer complete series
• Fans of interconnected romance books
• BookTok romance readers

Easons and Booktopia both catalogue this ISBN as a three-volume complete collection rather than a single novel.
