Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Lynette was born in London, but moved to Burnley, Lancashire when she was a small child. From the tender age of five she was raised by her grandmother and given books to help keep her quiet. Lynette found she had a passion for reading and subsequently started writing once she began school.

Years later, Lynette’s husband was so impressed with her ability to capture children’s imaginations with her stories that he encouraged her love of writing by buying her a laptop in the hope she would write something more substantial. So, with a little push in the right direction, Lynette decided to write a fantasy trilogy and the subject would be something that all children love to read about (and most adults too) – magic!

Her inspiration came from childhood books written by Enid Blyton. The Enchanted Wood and The Faraway Tree were her first real taste of fantasy and the reason why she writes today.

Her first novel, Sinners of Magic, was published in 2012 and is now receiving attention from both London and American film producers. Betrayers of Magic became the second book of the series followed by Defenders of Magic.

Lynette has since had one of her short stories published in America, hitting No 4 in the US bestsellers charts. The Witching Hour is only available via Amazon Kindle.

Lynette now lives in North Lincolnshire with her husband and King Charles spaniel, Ruby. All of her grandchildren are the apple of her eye.

    The sarcastic banter between Stella and her coworker/rival Delores for another man’s attention had me howling in laughter! Grab a hot tea or cup of coffee and take 10 minutes to read this fun short.

    After being invited by her boss to a Halloween party, Stella knows it would be in her best interest to show up. After arriving at the celebration, she is thrilled to see Harry Dunlop also in attendance as he is the only man who has captured her full attention. Sadly, another woman at the party appears to be attracted to the same male, and Stella feels she has no chance of capturing his notice when her co-worker is so enticing.

    While short on words, THE WITCHING HOUR has an abundance of delightful situations which I found to be totally entertaining. There are several occasions where humor comes into play, while other instances are more emotional and express the genuine feelings of the characters. Stella is someone who wishes things could be different in her life, but she is resigned to things never changing. Then an opportunity to alter her future takes place. I was definitely eager to see how she would react to any new developments, and I smiled all the way through this compelling romance. Lynette Creswell makes this Halloween story come across as enchantingly enjoyable at all times.
