Every Summer After

By Carley Fortune.

This second-chance romance is heartwarming, with a touch of heartbreak, a touch of joy, a secret that brings a hefty dose of regret, and a very satisfying ending.

Percy Fraser’s world is shaken when she receives a phone call from Charlie Florek telling her his mother passed away. She hadn’t seen them, or Charlie’s brother Sam—her first love and the man she expected to spend her life with—for a decade. Returning to Barry’s Bay to attend his mother’s funeral is difficult. The small lake town held so many memories. Sam had been the center of her world until Percy’s self-doubt and one devastating choice inserted a wedge between them, one that Percy believed destroyed their relationship forever.

But then she encounters Sam a day before the funeral and still feels the connection they once shared. And it appears that Sam does, too. But is it enough to overcome ten years of silence and move beyond the mistakes from their past?
