"Fortune s debut novel is filled with nostalgia and heart. Percy and Sam s history is compelling and nuanced, making the story fly by faster than the summer months themselves. Although just like the places we spend our summers, and the people we meet along the way, Percy and Sam just might stay in your heart far beyond the last page. USA Today

"Every Summer After is a quintessential summer novel, full of longing and lost love, and hits on so many beloved tropes. You ll want to gobble it up in one satisfying bite. BuzzFeed
Any book that begins with a cocktail and a heartbreak-induced haircut has a strong likelihood of being just the book for
me, but
Every Summer After outshone even my highest hopes. Fortune s wit is sharp, her prose is gorgeous, and her characters thrum with the rare kind of life and breath we readers are constantly on the lookout for. This is a radiant debut that packs an emotional wallop.

LuckySet in Ontario s idyllic cottage country, Carley Fortune s debut,
Every Summer After, follows a couple Persephone (Percy) and Sam as they navigate loss, broken promises, and unrequited love. In a then/now narrative spanning nearly two decades, Fortune deftly explores the push and pull of a relationship burdened by past mistakes and misunderstandings, and how it s as much about choice as it is fate. Evocative and nostalgic, this novel is perfect for those who covet steamy summer dock days and second-chance love stories. I devoured it!
