One Golden Summer, (Hardcover)

"<p><b>A radiant, new escape to the lake from &amp;num;1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Carley Fortune</b></p> <p><br></p><p><b><i>I never anticipated Charlie Florek.</i></b></p> <p><br></p><p>Good things happen at the lake. That's what Alice's grandmother says, and it's true. Alice spent just one summer there at a cottage with Nan when she was seventeen--it's where she took that photo, the one of three grinning teenagers in a yellow speedboat, the image that changed her life.</p> <p><br></p><p>Now Alice lives behind a lens. As a photographer, she's most comfortable on the sidelines, letting other people shine. Lately though, she's been itching for something more, and when Nan falls and breaks her hip, Alice comes up with a plan for them both: another summer in that magical place, Barry's Bay. But as soon as they settle in, their peace is disrupted by the roar of a familiar yellow boat, and the man driving it.</p> <p><br></p><p>Charlie Florek was nineteen when Alice took his photo from afar. Now he's all grown up--a shameless flirt, who manages to make Nan laugh and Alice long to be seventeen again, when life was simpler, when taking pictures was just for fun. Sun-slanted days and warm nights out on the lake with Charlie are a balm for Alice's soul, but when she looks up and sees his piercing green gaze directly on her, she begins to worry for her heart.</p> <p><br></p><p>Because Alice sees people--that's why she is so good at what she does--but she's never met someone who looks and sees her right back.</p>" <p></p>
