Carley Fortune in Conversation

Tuesday, May 26 at Djavad Mowafaghian Cinema

For years, #1 New York Times bestselling author Carley Fortune was told that international readers weren’t interested in books with rural, authentic Canadian settings. And ever since she published her first novel in 2022, her meteoric success has told a different story. The Ontarian author’s swoonworthy romance novels have sold millions of copies, and her captivating characters and lush descriptions of Canadian landscapes delight readers around the world. She joins the Vancouver Writers Fest for one night only with her latest book, Our Perfect Storm (set in Tofino!), in conversation with her best friend, Meredith Marino.

Each ticket includes:

• Access to an on-stage conversation and audience Q&A with Carley Fortune
• One pre-signed copy of Our Perfect Storm (no personalization or signing of additional merchandise) 
• Access to a photo op with Carley Fortune! 

About the Book

Frankie and George have been best friends since they were eight years old. Both passionate, impulsive, and headstrong—they’ve always clashed... and come back together. Until now. It’s the eve of Frankie’s wedding weekend, and she doesn’t know where they stand or even if George will show up as her best man.

Then, at the start of the festivities, in walks George. For one glorious evening, surrounded by her loved ones, Frankie’s life is finally perfect. But it all comes crashing down when her fiancé dumps her the next morning, leaving only a note as an explanation.

Crushed and confused, Frankie returns to her family’s home to wallow. But George has a different idea and a plan for healing Frankie’s broken heart. He wants her to go on her honeymoon. With him. For one week, to the lush rainforests and misty beaches of Tofino.

Frankie agrees, seeing the trip for what it really is: one last chance to repair their friendship. Even if it means unearthing secrets and long buried feelings neither knows how to handle. Even if it means falling apart for good.
