Lynda Renham is a romance thriller and humor author best known for her romantic comedies. She is also the author of “The Confessions of a Chocoholic,” a collection of short stories about her mad life.
She also writes under the pseudonym Edith Waylen under which she published the novel “The Diary of Rector Byrnes.” Before she became a bestselling author, she had been writing political articles and had been a guest on many radio shows.
Renham has said that she loves living in the country and usually takes long walks with her husband taking photos that they usually share on social media. While she had been writing for more than twenty-five years, she only found success recently when she decided to venture into comedy.
She makes her home in Oxfordshire where she lives with her second husband and Bendy their little cat. Renham loves interacting with her readers and often writes a newsletter every month. She also engages with her readers on social media, particularly on her Facebook and Twitter profiles.
Renham got started writing when she was just seven years old, which is a very tender age. She remembers reading a magazine with a very bizarre title as it told several stories about a hare named Harold Hare.
It was this magazine that inspired Lynda to pen her very own story with a hare that she also named Harold. She contacted the magazine and she was fortunate enough that they loved and published her story.
She continued writing throughout her teenage years but when she got married while she was in her twenties, writing went out the window.
Even though she did not feel like the marriage was bad in any way, she does not believe her husband gave her the support she needed. Moreover, life got in the way of her writing as she had stuff to buy and bills to take care of.
Nearly two decades after getting married, she got divorced and several years later she got married to her current husband.
Andrew her new husband soon found her stack of manuscripts and began pestering her to get published. It was from his nagging that she once again started writing. In fact, Renham has said that she owes much of her writing career to him.
Lynda Renham does her writing from anywhere she can find some peace and quiet. She writes from their summerhouse when it is summer and her little office during the winter. She will sometimes plop herself down in the lounge with her laptop and write wherever she likes.
Most of the time she usually likes to write while playing music really loud on her headphones. She also loves to have frequent visits to the fridge and often spends minutes procrastinating on Youtube and Facebook, but somehow manages to finish her manuscripts and get them published.
When she is not writing her novels, she can usually be found reading for the most part psychological thrillers. Some of her favorite authors include Virginia Woolf and Iris Murdoch.
“A Christmas Romance” by Lynda Renham is a work set in the small scenic village of Little Perran. It is an uneventful, peaceful, and quiet village in the English countryside that is disrupted by the arrival of Roux Lockhart who arrives to shoot his latest film.
The village librarian is Frankie Bell that has been asked to look after her aunt Rose’s house while she is away. It is the same house in which the movie star will be living and she will have to provide a warm welcome.
Frankie decides to leave for him some of her scrumptious mince pies to welcome him to the village. On the other hand, The villagers have agreed to keep Roux’s whereabouts a secret but it is not long before the press gets wind of his presence. When there is a snowstorm that blows in hard and results in a lot of chaos on the roads, Frankie gets lost returning back home. With visibility so poor, she causes another car to careen off the road.
The man in the other car is Roux who finds himself stranded miles from the village. The two decide to walk to the nearest settlement to find shelter.
When the storm does not let up for days, they find themselves cut off from the civilized world and Roux is soon panicking, particularly when the press learns of his presence in the small village.
Lynda Renham’s novel “A Village Romance” is the story of a faltering rocker named Billy Baxter. His most recent album has been doing very badly, probably in tandem with how his life has been going at present.
According to his manager, he may be better off cleaning up his act and moving to the country and out of London. He reluctantly agrees, packs his guitar and bags, and heads off to Little Perran. But his arrival is not so smooth as the residents immediately see the rocker side of him.
Ashley Wilmot-Fox is another newcomer to Little Perran hoping to escape his past. After a terrible accident, Ashley has to deal with some terrible injuries. He has a messed-up arm and his melancholic outlook on life is clear to all until he meets Milly, a shop worker in the village.
Milly’s chatter and kindness charm Bily but he is afraid of getting his heart get broken once again. But when he places an advert for a domestic helper and she applies for the position he cannot help but hire her for the job.
Milly is a newcomer to Little Perran but she has managed to settle in that most people feel as if she has been part of the community for years. Unfortunately, Milly has a secret past that may threaten everything she has built and has been building.
“A Summer Romance” by Lynda Renham sees things heat up in the “Little Perran” series of novels. The newcomers have been settling into life in the countryside and soon there is the blossoming of romance. However, things are soured when Millie’s ex Lee comes out of prison determined to get her back.
The usual summer fete has been dedicated to the memory of Rose Miles for the first time this year. She was introduced in the debut novel of the series and has been responsible for bringing the community together. There is a lot of fun as the piglet Polly causes chaos as she is chased by Frankie’s dog Buster.
Billy Baxter ALSO surprises everyone when he turns out to be a hit which no one ever expected. Meanwhile, Milly has been making a lot of money selling her very in-demand ceramics while Cynthia’s vegetables have been moving like hotcakes.
Then amid the laughter and joviality, a jealous ex and a drunken WhatsApp message change everything in Litle Perran.
