Good things happen at the lake. That's what Alice's grandmot her says\, and it's true. Alice spent just one summer at a cottage with Na n when she was seventeen--it's where she took that photo\, the one of thre e grinning teenagers in a yellow speedboat\, the image that changed her li fe. Now Alice lives behind a lens. As a photographer\, she's most comforta ble on the sidelines\, letting other people shine. Lately\, though\, she's been itching for something more\, and when Nan falls and breaks her hip\, Alice comes up with a plan for them both: another summer in that magical place\, Barry's Bay. But as soon as they settle in\, their peace is disrup ted by the roar of a familiar yellow boat\, and the man driving it. Charli e Florek was nineteen when Alice took his photo from afar. Now he's all gr own up--a shameless flirt\, who manages to make Nan laugh and Alice long t o be seventeen again\, when life was simpler\, when taking pictures was ju st for fun. Sun-slanted days and warm nights out on the lake with Charlie are a balm for Alice's soul\, but when she looks up and sees his piercing green gaze directly on her\, she begins to worry for her heart. Because Al ice sees people--that's why she is so good at what she does--but she's nev er met someone who looks and sees her right back. New book discussion part icipants are always welcome.
