Lots of updates today!
Principal photography has started today – on the SEVENTEENTH!
How serendipitous considering who is most likely in this scene! There are some clues on the slate as to which episode this is ( 9-7 would mean episode 9 overall for the series or episode 3 of season 2).
BESTSELLING NOVA SCOTIA AUTHOR RACHEL REID DONATED $300,000 TO ANNAPOLIS VALLEY REGIONAL LIBRARY!
The Annapolis Valley Regional Library (AVRL) has received a gift of $300,000 from bestselling author and Nova Scotia native Rachel Reid, one of Canada’s most celebrated contemporary romance writers and the author of Heated Rivalry.
Julia Merritt, CEO of the Annapolis Valley Regional Library, said the donation represents an extraordinary investment in library services and in the people and communities they serve.
“This is an incredibly generous gift, and we are profoundly grateful to Rachel for choosing to invest in libraries, the Annapolis Valley, and the people our libraries serve,” said Merritt. “Her support will make a meaningful difference and help us continue creating opportunities for people across the region to read, learn and connect.”
The donation will support priority library services across the Annapolis Valley, with additional details on its implementation to be shared as plans are finalized.
“Libraries are one of the most important services governments provide. I credit my local library for being a huge part of the reason I’m a published author today. As essential community cornerstones, libraries provide free resources, information, assistance, and safe spaces to their residents. Nova Scotia governments should be prioritizing libraries, and working to ensure these fundamental branches remain open for their communities,” says Reid.

JACOB AND BRENDAN ON SEASON 2
Jacob Tierney and Brendan Brady spoke to The Hollywood Reporter that season 2 “It’s really this show is not built on secrets. It’s built on feelings and sensation. It’s a very visceral show. It’s very sensual in that way, and it’s all in the execution of it.”
“I’ve never experienced fandom like this before, and I have to just trust myself the way I trusted myself last time,” he said. “I’m gonna try to make the best show I can make — that’s really all I can do. I can never make everybody happy at the same time. I hope I can make a majority of you happy, and I hope you also just cut me the slack to wait and see.”
