When romance readers are in search of a good book about a summer fling, they know to pick up a novel by Carley Fortune. Ever since her debut, Every Summer After, shot to the top of The New York Times Best Seller list in 2022, she's been synonymous with the "perfect beach read." From Meet Me at the Lake to This Summer Will Be Different, her popular titles transport readers to idyllic vacation towns and make them swoon with the charming love stories at their center.
Fortune has sold over three million copies worldwide, and there are Prime Video and Netflix adaptations in the works for some of her most popular series, but she shows no signs of slowing down. On May 5, she releases an all-new novel, Our Perfect Storm. It follows lifelong friends Frankie and George as they take what would have been Frankie's honeymoon together when she's stood up before her wedding day. As they travel together, the two attempt to repair their friendship—and question whether there's more to their connection.
