A glorious and tantalising new escape from
#1 New York Times bestselling author of EVERY SUMMER AFTER and MEET ME AT THE LAKE, Carley Fortune.

This summer they’ll keep their promise. This summer they won't give into temptation. This summer will be different.
Lucy is the tourist vacationing at a beach house on Prince Edward Island. Felix is the local who shows her a very good time. The only problem: Lucy doesn’t know he’s her best friend’s younger brother. Lucy and Felix’s chemistry is unreal, but the list of reasons why they need to stay away from each other is long, and they vow to never repeat that electric night again.
It’s easier said than done.
Each year, Lucy escapes to PEI for a big breath of coastal air, fresh oysters and crisp vinho verde with her best friend, Bridget. Every visit begins with a long walk on the beach, beneath soaring red cliffs and a golden sun. And every visit, Lucy promises herself she won’t wind up in Felix’s bed. Again.
If Lucy can’t help being drawn to Felix, at least she’s always kept her heart out of it.
When Bridget suddenly flees Toronto a week before her wedding, Lucy drops everything to follow her to the island. Her mission is to help Bridget through her crisis and resist the one man she’s never been able to. But Felix’s sparkling eyes and flirty quips have been replaced with something new, and Lucy’s beginning to wonder just how safe her heart truly is.

Reviews

Radiant Carley Fortune is the master of the love story A breathtaking tale of star-crossed lovers that gripped me from page one A sweet story about second chances, and how the future we imagine for ourselves is never quite what it turns out to A quintessential summer novel, full of longing and lost love, and hits on so many beloved tropes Carley Fortune perfects the nostalgia of young summer love and the choices that change us forever A swoon-worthy romance With its steamy moments and wistful island descriptions, this swoon-worthy romance is one for the beach bag If this doesn't put you in the mood for summer, we're not sure what will There’s plenty of crackling sexual tension, and a beguiling sense of sleepy, oyster-loving Prince Edward Island ‘With its ‘Anne’ references, steamy moments and wistful island descriptions, this swoon-worthy romance is one for the beach bag’ This Summer Will Be Different is a deep and shimmering story of friendship, sex, and-- most of all-- love. From page one, Lucy and Felix reached right in and grabbed my heart and they haven't let go. Be prepared to cry, swoon, ache, and cheer. Stunning. What a dreamy and sexy summer novel. Carley Fortune knows how to tug at your heart. This is a book filled with great food, lots of charm, and a young woman navigating the tricky question of how she wants to live her life. Carley Fortune has managed to dream up another entirely fresh, deeply layered and beautifully written romance. Except this time the chemistry between Lucy and Felix could power all of Prince Edward Island. For years. Clear your calendar and buckle up--this one will leave you breathless. Expand reviews
