• 

  Fortune’s This Summer Will Be Different is becoming a TV show at Netflix. Sophie Nélisse (Heated Rivalry, Yellowjackets, The Book Thief) was first cast as Lucy Ashby, main character of the romance. Roby Attal will portray Felix ‘Wolf’ Clark, brother to Lucy’s best friend Bridget (Francesca Reale). The problem is, Lucy and Felix feel sparks upon immediately meeting, but that is before Lucy realizes who Felix is. Bridget has a few rules for her best friend whenever they visit Prince Edward Island, and one of them involves not falling in love with Bridget’s brother. Production has begun on the show.

• ‘One Golden Summer’ – Prime Video

  

  One Golden Summer is a sequel of sorts to Every Summer After, and it follows Charlie’s love story with Alice Everly. At its Inaugural Obsessed Fest, Prime Video revealed that Every Year After had been renewed for a Season 2, which will be based on One Golden Summer, after the book was under option at the streamer.

  Alice has yet to be cast, as do her grandmother and possibly older sister and niece. Amy B. Harris will shepherd this story onto the small screen just like she did with Every Year After.

• ‘Meet Me At The Lake’ – Netflix

  Meet Me At the Lake is the only one of Fortune’s books so far to be in development for a film adaptation. Deadline reported that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Harry and Meghan Markle, bought the rights for the romance novel back in 2023.

  Fortune’s second novel follows Fern Brookbanks, who has been passed down her mother’s Muskoka lakeside resort to run. She isn’t happy doing that, but on top of this, an old flame, Will Baxter, shows up there nine years after they agreed to meet up and he ghosted her there. They spent a day together in Toronto and sparks flew.
