Meet Me at the Lake

For one perfect, unrepeatable day in Toronto, Fern Brookbanks and Will Baxter were strangers who fell into an instant, electric connection, and made a promise to meet again in exactly one year. Will never showed. Nine years later, Fern is running her late mother's lakeside resort in Ontario, exhausted and unsure of the path she's on, when Will reappears out of nowhere, full of apologies and complications. As old feelings resurface against the backdrop of the lake, Fern has to decide whether the one who got away deserves a second chance, and what she truly wants for her own life. Carley Fortune, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After, delivers a swoony, summery second-chance romance about timing, grief, and the pull of the people we can't forget.
