A gran had the most wholesome reaction when her grandson announced that he had secured a publishing deal for his romance novel.

Brandon Purves, 28, from Northumberland, UK was told that he had won the Penguin Michael Joseph Undiscovered Writers’ Prize for "Do not kiss Nicholas Prince" last month (Feb 10).

As soon as he found out, Brandon rushed over to tell his grandma Mary Purves, 88, and was able to capture her heart-warming reaction on video.
