About the book: year / They say you can never go home again, and for Persephone Fraser, since ten years ago she made the biggest mistake in her life, it seems too true. Instead of the brilliant summers on the lake where she spent her childhood, she spends them in a stylish apartment in the city, hanging out with friends and keeping everyone at a safe distance from her heart. Until she gets a call that forces her to return to Barry's Bay and fall into the orbit of Sam Florek - the man she never thought she'd have to live without. Every summer for six years, during foggy afternoons on the water and warm summer nights when she worked in his family's restaurant and buried in books together—medical textbooks for him and unfinished horror stories for her—Percy and Sam were inseparable. In the end, this friendship grew into something amazing and more, and then completely fell apart. When Percy returns to the lake for Sam's mother's funeral, their connection is as undeniable as ever. But until Percy can confront the decisions she's made and the years she's spent punishing herself for them, they'll never know if their love can be more than the huge mistakes of their past..
