Carley Fortune is a Canadian author and former magazine editor known for contemporary romance shaped by nostalgia, memory, and emotionally complicated second chances. Her debut, Every Summer After, became a major breakout, introducing her signature blend of lakeside atmosphere,... dual timelines, first love, regret, and the painful pull of the past. She continued that style in Meet Me at the Lake, where inheritance, grief, responsibility, and unfinished romance unfold against another vividly drawn Canadian summer setting. Fortune’s journalism and editorial background show in her clean pacing, natural dialogue, and careful emotional structure. Her novels appeal to readers who enjoy heartfelt romance with reflective depth, where place matters, old choices carry weight, and love is tied closely to forgiveness, timing, and personal growth.
