Rating: 4 of 5 Hearts
This short story is a delight to read. It will only take you 10-15 tops to read. It is a great lunch break or if you just need to escape from life for a few moments kind of story. I promise it will leave a smile on your face.
Author Lynette Creswell tells a story filled with humor and fun to get all of us in the mood for Halloween. Her lead character Stella has insecurities most woman deal with daily. I became an instant cheerleader while Stella worked past her comfort zone to go after what she wanted.
Stella knows what she wants she just never thought about pursuing her dream guy. Especially when her archenemy has staked claim that he will be hers. Luckily, for us fate helps her out.
I asked Lynette if she planned to continue this short story. She said anything is possible. I for one hope she does. I can see this story being a full-blown novel with many twists and turns. Maybe if enough of tell her we need more we will see more of Stella in the future.
Lynette was born in London, England, and from the tender age of five 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 short 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!
Lynette's inspiration came from childhood books written by Enid Blyton. The Enchanted Wood and The Faraway Tree were her first real taste of fantasy and later on Stephanie Meyer's Twilight Series captured her own vivid imagination.
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. Her new book, Clump, A Changeling's Story is due to be released by October 2014.
Lynette lives in North East Lincolnshire with her husband and two dogs. Her two small granddaughters, who both live locally, are the apple of her eye.
