Every Summer After

**#1 NATIONAL BESTSELLER • THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • NOW THE PRIME ORIGINAL SERIES EVERY YEAR AFTER

"A radiant debut."—Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Great Big Beautiful Life

Six summers to fall in love. One moment to fall apart. A weekend to get it right.**

They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, ever since she made the biggest mistake of her life a decade ago, that has felt too true. Instead of spending summers in cottage country, on the glittering lakeshore of her childhood, she stays in a stylish apartment in Toronto, keeping everyone a safe distance from her heart.

Until Percy receives the call that sends her racing back to Barry’s Bay and into the orbit of Sam Florek—the man she never thought she’d have to live without.

For six summers during their youth, through hazy afternoons on the water and warm nights working in his family’s restaurant, Percy and Sam had been inseparable. And when Percy returns to the lake, their connection is as undeniable as it had always been. But until she can confront the decisions she made, they’ll never know whether their love is bigger than the biggest mistakes of their past.

Told over the course of six years in the past and one weekend in the present, Every Summer After is a gorgeously romantic look at love and the people and choices that mark us forever.
