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.
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.
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.
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.

I would give this one 4.5 stars and I look forward to season 2 of Every Summer After, hoping that it will tell this story, the story of Charlie. I love that this book gives little glimpses into what happened to Percy & Sam. While I liked the first book a little more, this one was thoroughly enjoyable, also!
Wow.. This was phenomenalFrom the first 50 pages I knew this was going to be a very highly rated book and I wasn't wrong. I READ THIS IN ONE DAY AND I CRIED. Alice and Charlie are WRITTEN IN THE STARS. I love Charlie with all of my heart. A pure hearted, witty, charming but broken soul man who loves Alice with all of his self. THIS WAS PERFECTEdit: OMG SEASON 2 IS COMING ALICE EVERLY COME GET YOUR HUSBAND
Sweet Romance with a Touch of Summer Magic⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3.5 rounded up)This was such a sweet, nostalgic summer read with a cozy lakeside setting and just the right touch of romance. I really enjoyed Alice’s quiet introspection and the way her love of photography tied into the story, it gave the book a reflective, almost wistful feel. Charlie is charming without being over the top, and Nan totally stole a few scenes in the best way.The pacing was a bit slow in parts, and while I didn’t always feel fully connected to the emotional beats, the overall vibe was warm and satisfying. Perfect if you’re in the mood for a story about second chances, quiet transformation, and the kind of summer that leaves a mark on your heart.
