This reminds me I’ve got the book on my TBR, so I think I should probably read it before the weekend! 🎄📚💘 #Romancelandia

Been a fair few weeks since I tucked into an entry in this wonderful series, and this was a great one to get through in one sitting last night.

Great insight and questions posed on Drake's life, plus so much good stuff on PM.
