<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Have you ever fallen in love before? In this book, award winning national speaker Kerry Magro discusses his own personal experiences as an adult on the autism spectrum and being in love. A popular image of autism today focuses on children and interventions. As these children grow up on the spectrum and become adults a romantic relationship will become a possibility for some in our community. Kerry's first hand experience discussing "The One That Got Away" will open the reader to a new line of thinking while breaking down the barriers of ignorance between autism and love. In this book you will also learn more about some of the challenges that face individuals with autism today in finding a partner including topics such as social cues, empathy, communication patterns and much, much more! Those on the autism spectrum will learn more on relationships and how they can go about finding their next partner while neurotypicals will learn some things you may expect while dating someone with autism.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Kerry Magro is an award winning national speaker who is on the autism spectrum.
