This week we're chatting to Rebecca Raisin, bestselling author and mum of twins! Her uplifting, often inspiring, sweet romance novels with unique, often quirky and super relatable heroines are the perfect way to escape the mundane and armchair travel to gorgeous locations around the world (and for any book lovers, lots of them have bookish / literary themes and bookshops!)
