Meet Me at the Lake

Fern Brookbanks spent one unforgettable day in Toronto with Will Baxter, an idealistic young artist she connected with instantly. They made a pact to meet again in exactly one year. Fern showed up. Will didn't. Nearly a decade later, Fern is thirty-two and back home running her late mother's lakeside resort, a life she swore she would never lead.

The resort is struggling, her ex manages it, and she has no idea where to start, until Will reappears, nine years too late, with a suitcase and an offer to help.

Moving between that single day years ago and the present at the resort, the novel is a second-chance romance about grief, the gap between the life you planned and the one you got, and whether a missed connection deserves another try.
