'Heated Rivalry' author Rachel Reid gives $300,000 to keep Nova Scotia libraries open

Nova Scotia author Rachel Reid has donated $300,000 to support libraries in the province’s Annapolis Valley. The funds are intended to assist the library system, which has been facing financial challenges, in maintaining its operations and services. Reid, known for the romance books that inspired the television series 'Heated Rivalry,' has publicly identified libraries as a critical public service.

The donation arrives as the Annapolis Valley library system struggles with budget constraints. By providing this financial contribution, Reid aims to ensure the continued availability of these community resources for local residents.
