Mr B's review
Alice is happiest in two places: the lake in Barry’s Bay, and behind her lens. The lake is where she took the photograph that kick-started her career all those years ago, after all – those three gorgeous, carefree teens on that yellow boat. Now Alice is back in Barry’s Bay… and this time Charlie, the boy she captured in that picture all those years ago, is now a man… who’s looking right back. Nostalgic, escapist, and blissfully romantic, One Golden Summer is the perfect read for sunlit days and long evenings. – Liv

I never anticipated Charlie Florek. But Charlie Florek changed my life.
Good things happen at the lake. That’s what Alice’s Nan always says. And it’s true. It’s where Alice took that photo, the one that catapulted her career.
But when Nan falls, Alice puts down her camera and heads back to Barry’s Bay. No camera. No deadlines. Quiet… until he shows up.
Charlie Florek. He was nineteen when she accidentally photographed him. Now he’s back – taller, hotter, and somehow even more unforgettable.
Sun-soaked days, slow-burning nights – and when Charlie looks at her like that, Alice starts to wonder if her heart’s in danger.
She’s spent her life seeing others. But no one’s ever truly seen her…until now.
Return to the world of EVERY SUMMER AFTER, but this time it’s Charlie’s turn to fall in love…
