      Six étés pour tomber amoureux. Un instant pour se séparer. Un week-end pour tout réparer. Pour Perséphone Fraser, retourner chez elle après avoir commis la plus grande erreur de sa vie il y a dix ans semble impossible. Au lieu de passer ses étés dans la région des chalets, au bord des lacs scintillants de son enfance, elle vit dans un appartement élégant à Toronto, gardant tout le monde à distance de son cœur. Jusqu'à ce qu'elle reçoive un appel qui la ramène à Barry’s Bay et dans l'orbite de Sam Florek—l'homme qu'elle n'aurait jamais pensé devoir vivre sans. Pendant six étés de leur jeunesse, à travers des après-midis brumeux sur l'eau et des nuits chaleureuses à travailler dans le restaurant familial de Sam, Percy et Sam étaient inséparables. À son retour au lac, leur connexion est aussi indéniable qu'elle l'a toujours été. Mais tant qu'elle n'affrontera pas les décisions qu'elle a prises, ils ne sauront jamais si leur amour est plus grand que les plus grandes erreurs de leur passé. Récit s'étalant sur six ans dans le passé et un week-end dans le présent, "Tous nos étés" offre une perspective romantique sur l'amour et les choix qui nous marquent à jamais.

    • One day. One promise. Two lives changed. Fern Brookbanks has wasted far too much of her adult life thinking about Will Baxter. She spent twenty-four hours in her early twenties with the aggravatingly attractive, idealistic artist - a chance encounter that spiralled into a daylong city adventure. The timing was wrong, but their connection was undeniable: they shared every secret, every dream, and made a pact to meet one year later. Fern showed up. Will didn't. At thirty-two, Fern's life hasn't turned out how she imagined it. She's back home, running her mother's lakeside resort, which is in disarray - and her ex-boyfriend is the manager. She needs a lifeline. To Fern's surprise, it comes in the form of Will, who arrives - nine years too late - with an offer to help. Will may be the only person who understands what Fern's going through. Yet how can she possibly trust this expensive suit-wearing mirage who seems nothing like the young man she met all those years ago. But ten years ago, Will Baxter rescued Fern. Can she do the same for him?
