A random connection sends two strangers on a daylong adventure where they make a promise one keeps and the other breaks, with life-changing effects, in this breathtaking new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After.

Fern Brookbanks has wasted far too much of her adult life thinking about Will Baxter. She spent just twenty-four hours in her early twenties with the aggravatingly attractive, idealistic artist, a chance encounter that spiraled into a daylong adventure in the city. The timing was wrong, but their connection was undeniable: they shared every secret, every dream, and made a pact to meet one year later. Fern showed up. Will didn’t.

At thirty-two, Fern’s life doesn’t look at all how she once imagined it would. Instead of living in the city, Fern’s back home, running her mother’s lakeside resort—something she vowed never to do. The 
​place is in disarray, her ex-boyfriend’s the manager, and Fern doesn’t know where to begin.

She needs a plan—a lifeline. To her surprise, it comes in the form of Will, who arrives nine years too late, with a suitcase in tow and an offer to help on his lips. Will may be the only person who understands what Fern’s going through. But how could she possibly trust this expensive-suit wearing mirage who seems nothing like the young man she met all those years ago. Will is hiding something, and Fern’s not sure she wants to know what it is. 

But ten years ago, Will Baxter rescued Fern. Can she do the same for him?

READ MY BOOK REVIEW

Meet Me at the Lake is one of those books that you plow through because you need to know what will happen with the characters. Having not read Carley’s previous release (EVERY SUMMER AFTER) I really didn’t know what the hype was all about. But it’s very clear that she writes romance novels that resonate with her readers because this one certainly did for me. And while I don’t necessarily buy into the second chance romance between two people who only spent one day together, I did enjoy the buildup, the backstory, and the slow-moving romance between Fern and Will. These two were really good together despite the things that were holding them back (Wills backstory warmed my heart).

If you’re looking for a summer romance that will make you swoon with an amazing setting that’s easy to visualize, then this is the perfect book for you! I look forward to finally reading Every Summer After.
