Good things happen at the lake. That's what Alice's Nan always says. And it's true. It's where Alice took that photo, the one that catapulted her career.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The beachy latest from bestseller Fortune (Meet Me at the Lake) follows Alice Everly, an overworked photographer who's lost her creative spark. When her grandmother, Nan, breaks her hip, Alice hopes to cheer her up by bringing her back to her lake cottage where Alice spent one wonderful summer when she was 17. She also hopes the trip will reignite her own artistic passion, as it's there that she received her first camera and took the photo that jump-started her career, a candid shot of three teens from the neighboring cottage. Now she reunites with one of those neighbors, the gorgeous and charming Charlie Florek, an outrageous flirt who agrees to help fix up Nan's cottage. Though Alice is initially distrustful of him, matchmaking Nan is delighted by his lighthearted aura and the three strike up a deep friendship. It's a sweet if somewhat slow-moving setup—but things pick up when Charlie offers to help Alice complete her summer bucket list, from cliff diving to making art, and their chemistry ignites. The pair agree to a friends with benefits arrangement, as neither believes they want or deserve a long-term relationship, but the lines begin to blur as summer comes to a close. The sparks between Alice and Charlie fly off the page and endearing Nan adds heart. This is a treat.
