I don’t know about yours, but my family is obsessed with PEI. We go camping EVERY summer – if I had it my way, we would go EVERY weekend! – and if you always make a summer visit too, prepare to see cameras, big trucks, and lots of yellow tape!

This summer, PEI will see it’s LARGEST television production EVER to film a 10 episode show for Netflix!

It’s a tv show adapted from Canadian author Carley Fortune‘s bestselling romance novel: This Summer Will Be Different. Good luck finding the book in stock anywhere because the BUZZ is REAL!

I caught up with the owner of Realms and Roses, the amazing Independent ROMANCE bookstore on Hammonds Plains Rd, to see how likely it was to get a copy anytime soon, AND to see if she had any inside scoop (or, at least, INKLING) as to what the next Romance-novel-turned-TV-show might be!

Listen to what Erica had to say:
