Announcing "The Witches of Gloucester" by Lisabet Sarai
It’s not about power. It’s about love.
19,000 words
Genre: Lesbian paranormal erotic romance (FFF)

Includes special bonus story “Late Show”
ISBN (Smashwords): 9780463719466

The historic port of Gloucester, Massachusetts
has
a
special
charm,
due
at
least
in
part
to
its
resident
witches.
For
decades,
raven-maned
Marguerite
and
red-headed
Beryl
have
lived
among
its
hard-working
inhabitants,
making
magic
and
mischief.
Love
and
sex
fuel
their
supernatural
abilities,
but
duality
limits
their
power.
To
reach
their
full
potential,
they
need
a
third
witch
to
complete
their
circle.
Rejected as a nymphomaniac by
her
puritanical
boyfriend,
Emmeline
escapes
to
Gloucester
to
work
on
her
PhD
thesis.
From
the
moment
she
arrives,
Marguerite
and
Beryl
sense
her
erotic
vitality
and
unrecognized
paranormal
talent.
The
platinum-haired
beauty
may
well
be
the
enchantress
they
have
been
awaiting
for
so
long.
Now
they
need
to
show
Em
that
her
prodigious
libido
is
a
gift,
not
a
liability,
and
to
persuade
her
that
her
destiny
lies
in
the
sea-girt
town
they
guard,
and
in
their
arms.
SPECIAL BONUS: Also includes "Late Show", a contemporary
FF
erotic
romance
tale
about
second
chances.

“Will
she
come,
do
you
think?”
Marguerite
gestured
toward
the
1930’s brass
Commodore
clock
on
the
mantel,
which
read
ten
minutes
past
four.
“She
looked
so
nervous
yesterday
– as
if
she
thought
we’d eat
her
alive.”
“Well,
actually,
when
you
put
it
that
way...”
Beryl
allowed
herself
a
lecherous
chuckle.
Her companion gave her an exasperated grin.
“This
is
not
a
joke.
You
know
as
well
as
I
what
is
at
stake.”
“Don’t worry,
Mar.
She’ll
be
here,
though
she
may
have
to
wrestle
a
few
doubts
into
submission
first.
She
feels
the
pull,
just
as
we
do,
even
if
she
doesn’t understand
it.”
“Well,
I
do
hope
she
arrives
soon.”
Marguerite
surveyed
the
elegant
table
she’d set.
She
picked
up
a
Blue
Willow
porcelain
teacup
and
wiped
away
an
imaginary
smudge.
“The
icing
on
the
petit
fours
is
melting.”
As if in answer, chimes tinkled at the front of the house and a hint of fresh air slipped in the open door, bringing the ubiquitous tang of salt. From his corner cage, Marguerite’s mynah, Jonah, exactly mimicked the sound of the doorbell. Beryl jumped to her feet. “I’ll go show her to the parlor.”
“No,
no
– let
Gloria
do
that.
We
don’t want
to
spook
her
with
excess
enthusiasm.
Settle
down
and
compose
yourself.
Remember,
you’re
a
member
of
the
Ladies’
Welcome
Brigade.
Refined.
Polite.
Proper.”
“Proper?”
Beryl
grinned
and
thumbed
her
peaked
nipples,
obvious
as
always
through
the
navy
blue
crepe
of
her
blouse.
Her
eyes
fluttered
shut
as
she
relished
the
sensation.
“Refined?
Me?”
Marguerite licked her full lips. She swept her palms over the plum velvet caftan that hid her thighs. “Try to pretend, darling. Just this once.”
Explicit
Excerpt
In the sweet darkness, every sensation grew more acute. Marguerite deepened the kiss, sucking Emmy’s tongue into her mouth, while Beryl stroked Emmy’s back, belly and thighs. The wandering hands barely touched Emmeline’s body but everywhere they traveled, delicious heat followed.
Sparks danced along Em’s naked skin in the wake of Beryl’s fingers. Naked? When had she removed her clothing? Her eyes fluttered open. Shadows hung in the opulent room, shaped by candles that flickered on the mantel. It was nearly midsummer. How could the night have come so quickly?
Embarrassment, wonder
and
need
warred
within
her. Arousal coursed through her body in shimmering waves, so intense it was almost pain. She found herself splayed nude upon the carpet, arms flung out and erect nipples pointing at the ceiling. Her knees were bent, her thighs spread wide in lewd invitation. Moisture
seeped
from
her
exposed
cleft,
dampening
the
silky
nap
of
the
rug
beneath
her.
Beryl knelt in the gap between Em’s legs, equally naked, her porcelain-pale skin
gleaming
in
the
dimness.
Candlelight
struck
glints
from
her
coppery
crown.
Emmeline
couldn’t help
staring
at
the
matching
tangle
hiding
the
woman’s sex.
She
ached
to
part
that
auburn
curtain
and
taste
the
moist
flesh
it
concealed.
The older woman grinned. Mischief glittered in her emerald eyes. “Time enough for that later, girl. The first climax must be yours. Trust us. We won’t harm you. We just want to teach you who you are.”
We.
The
plural
made
Emmeline
wonder
about
Marguerite.
“I’m here,
darling.”
The
lilting,
cultured
voice
came
from
behind
her.
Em
twisted
backward.
Marguerite
knelt
just
above
her
head,
thighs
parted,
buttocks
resting
on
her
heels.
The
tawny
beauty’s pubic
curls
were
mere
inches
from
her
own
silvery
locks,
releasing
clouds
of
tidal
perfume.
Flawless
butterscotch-brown
skin
stretched
over
Marguerite’s lush
breasts
and
swelling
hips.
Sleek
muscles
shifted
under
the
smooth
surface
as
she
leaned
over
to
brush
her
lips
across
Emmeline’s.
Even that brief contact sent lightning sizzling to Em’s cunt.
For
an
instant
she
teetered
on
the
edge
of
climax,
before
the
luscious
pressure
subsided.
“Shall
we
take
you,
Emmeline?”
Maguerite’s question
wound
its
way
into
Emmeline’s consciousness,
through
a
haze
of
lust.
“You
must
ask
us.
The
ritual
requires
it.”
