Annette Blair, born in 1970, is a bestselling author who began her career writing historical fiction, including Regency, Amish, and Victorian novels. However, she found her niche in contemporary comedy, where she has achieved great success.
Blair's foray into contemporary romantic comedies began unexpectedly during a trip to Salem, Massachusetts, following a root canal procedure. Despite initially proclaiming that she would never write a contemporary novel, Blair found herself inspired by the town's magical atmosphere and its inhabitants. This trip marked the beginning of her popular "Bewitching Romantic Comedies" series, which became national bestsellers. Her book "Sex and the Psychic Witch," the first in her Triplet Witch Trilogy, reached the number one bestselling spot for contemporary romance-humorous on Barnes & Noble and topped various bestseller lists.
New York Times and USA Today Bestselling Author Annette Blair has continued to explore different genres and worlds, including mysteries, angels, dragons, and a new generation of witches. She has built a city called Wishing Well, near Salem, for her next generation of witches. Blair's work has garnered multiple Romantic Times TOP PICKS, Reviewers’ Choice Awards, and HOLT Medallion nominations. She has also won numerous awards, including Booksellers Best Awards, LORIES Awards, Laurel Wreath, Blue Boa, Aspen Gold, RIO, Southern Magic, More than Magic, Orange Rose, Winter Rose, PRISM, Beacon, Colorado Awards of Excellence, Write Touch Readers' Choice Awards, and an Orange County Book Buyer's Best Award. With Sex and the Psychic Witch, Annette took home three Anne-Bonney Readers’ Choice Awards out of four. Cloaked in Malice, her 5th Vintage Magic Mystery, became her first NY Times Bestseller. Jacob's Return, an Amish Historical, became her first USA Today Bestseller. Blair is grateful for her dedicated readers, who have been instrumental in her success.
