It became an instant bestseller, praised for its emotional depth and nostalgic summer atmosphere.Plot SummaryOver the course of six formative summers, Percy Fraser and Sam Florek fall deeply in love at a lakeside cottage in Barry's Bay-until a single mistake tears them apart. Twelve years later, Percy returns for Sam's mother's funeral, forcing them to confront the past and decide if their love deserves a second chance.Why Readers Love ItNostalgic Atmosphere: Vivid descriptions of summers by the lake evoke universal memories of youth and first love.Emotional Depth: The dual timeline reveals how Percy and Sam's relationship evolves (and unravels).Authentic Characters: Flawed yet relatable protagonists make their journey feel deeply personal.This isn't just a second-chance romance-it's a study in emotional paralysis.Most readers focus on Percy and Sam's romantic reunion, but what's truly fascinating is how Percy is emotionally frozen in time. Her entire adult identity is built around avoidance-of guilt, of truth, of vulnerability. The story reads like a coming-of-age tale where the protagonist doesn't actually "age" emotionally until the final chapters. The romance works because it's not just about rekindling love-it's about emotional growth finally catching up with the past.
