Cocktails with Melissa Hill and the Simon & Schuster team

A few weeks ago I received an advanced reading copy of Melissa Hill's new novel A Gift to Remember which I absolutely loved (you can find my review here). So you can imagine I was very excited when not much later I was contacted by Simon & Schuster with the question if I wanted to join the author and the publishing team for some cocktails to celebrate the book - to which the answer of course was "yes, please!"

We met at the 5th View Bar in Waterstones Piccadilly, which was a very apt meeting location for an evening of scrumptious cocktails and book chat with a bunch of lovely people. I also got the opportunity to talk briefly to Melissa herself while she was signing my copy of the book (see below) and ask her about the beautiful literary quotes she's included in the novel.

So in all, a pretty awesome night! Big thanks to Melissa and the team at Simon & Schuster for the invite and the wonderful evening.
