A Canadian author has had her life changed by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex after the pair reportedly snapped up the rights to her new book with a £3 million deal to produce it for Netflix.
Carley Fortune, who is also an award-winning journalist and former newspaper editor, found success with her first romance novel, Every Summer After, which was released in 2022 and went on to become a New York Times bestseller. But it’s her sophomore book, Meet Me At The Lake, which has proven to be a hit with Harry and Meghan, who have reportedly purchased the rights to produce a televised adaptation. A source said:“The themes of the book gripped the couple and it was chosen for their first adaptation with Netflix.”
