About This Summer Will Be Different by Carley Fortune
Some summer stories stay with you long after the last page, and This Summer Will Be Different by Carley Fortune is one of them. It is a warm, emotional, and deeply romantic contemporary fiction novel that captures the feeling of summer love, friendship, temptation, and the difficult choices that shape our lives.
Set on the breathtaking Prince Edward Island, this story follows Lucy as she returns every summer to a place that feels like freedom, comfort, and escape. The ocean breeze, golden beaches, and slow island life create the perfect backdrop for a romance that should not happen—but does anyway.
Lucy is not looking for complications. She just wants a peaceful summer with her best friend Bridget, good food, long walks, and time away from her everyday life. But everything changes when she meets Felix.
Felix is charming, easy to talk to, and impossible to ignore. Their connection is instant, natural, and full of chemistry. But there is one major problem—Felix is Bridget’s younger brother. Lucy knows she should stay away from him. She knows the rules. She knows the risk. But feelings do not always follow rules.
And that is where the story begins.
When One Summer Changes Everything
At its heart, This Summer Will Be Different is a story about emotional conflict. Lucy is caught between loyalty and desire, between friendship and love, between what is safe and what feels right.
Every summer she returns to Prince Edward Island, the tension between her and Felix grows stronger. What starts as small moments—glances, conversations, accidental meetings—slowly turns into something deeper and harder to ignore. The more time they spend together, the more complicated everything becomes.
Lucy is forced to ask herself difficult questions. Is love worth risking a lifelong friendship? Can she protect Bridget while also following her heart? Or will choosing Felix change everything she has always known?
Carley Fortune writes these emotions in a way that feels real and relatable. The story is not just about romance—it is about growing up, making mistakes, and learning what truly matters.
