This was a really good summer read. The setting in Ontario's cottage country was really well done, and made me feel like I was by the lake in the summer - something I have lots of memories of doing myself. Unfortunately I didn't love this one as much as I had expected to. I found the chapters that were set when they were teenagers to be a bit uncomfortable in a romance novel. Obviously these chapters were important to the plot, however it made it difficult for me to be very invested in the relationship of 16 year olds. I did really enjoy the parts where they were adults though, so I am looking forward to reading whatever Carley Fortune writes next!
