Carley Fortune is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Every Summer After, Meet Me at the Lake, and This Summer Will Be Different. A former journalist and editor, she lives in Toronto with her husband and two sons, and spends her summers on the water in Ontario's cottage country — the kind of setting that inspires the sun-soaked romances she's known for.

Readers are calling Our Perfect Storm Carley Fortune's best book yet:
Reviewers describe the yearning between Frankie and George as almost unbearable in the best way, built on years of real history rather than instant attraction.
The Tofino, Vancouver Island setting is winning over readers, with rainforests, beaches, and whale watching making it a favorite backdrop of the summer.
George is emerging as a standout book boyfriend, praised for his quiet devotion and emotional intelligence rather than grand gestures.
Fans of slow-burn romance say the friends-to-lovers arc pays off exactly as satisfyingly as they hoped.

You're a fan of Carley Fortune's swoony, small-town summer settings.
