  A Note from the Author

  A few years ago, I wrote a couple of books about sexy witches casting spells for romance. These witches belong to a coven, ruled by a high priestess named Lucy, in a little New England coastal town called Hermana. After I wrote and published the first few books, my real life took a bit of a turn, and so my lovely ladies and the remaining books were put aside for a few years. However, Lori Perkins, who has always championed these witches and this series, gave me a call in the fall and asked me to consider resurrecting them and their magical adventures for her new publishing company, Riverdale Avenue Books.

  It wasn’t too difficult to persuade me to revisit Hermana and Lucy and the witches. I’m thrilled to be working with Lori on this series, and I can’t wait to see what my witches are going to do next!

  Part of the fun of working on this series this time around includes the fact that the television shows American Horror Story, Penny Dreadful, Bates Motel and Scream Queens are hugely popular right now. I love these shows. They have a great knack for telling wild stories with sex, horror and comedy while everyone looks fabulous.

  Why does this matter to an erotic writer?

  The Witch Upon a Star series combines love, lust, horror, passion, comedy and life in much the same way these favorite shows of mine do. People who enjoy watching them will understand this series. Even if readers don’t watch TV, they will enjoy this series. Each book contains a complete story, a complete roller-coaster ride that follows a birthday girl and her quest for sex and love. A reader can pick up any book and enjoy a lusty magical adventure.

  Witch Upon a Star is set in the fictional town of Hermana, Massachusetts, which was founded by twin sisters who escaped the Salem witch trials in the 1700s. The sisters’ names were Sorona and Serephena. They both lived well into their 90s, sharing their holistic healing secrets and building up the mystical vibrations of the area. They married twin witches, Nigel and Nathaniel, who shared their voracious sexual appetites and magical healing abilities. Consequently, the foursome enjoyed a long line of descendants who continued to grow the town and add to its magical and erotic qualities.

  The town is rich in tradition and combines the beauty of both ocean and forest. Much like Cassadaga in Florida, Lily Dale in New York or Sedona in Arizona, Hermana resonates with some sort of vibration that attracts spiritualists, occultists, ghost hunters, witches and divination experts from all over the world.

  The town is about 45 minutes from Boston, a few miles from a major highway, by way of a long, winding road that weaves through a forest, a meadow with a ring of trees and then into the village. The road leads directly to the ocean, where there is a large public beach. Some of the residents enjoy nude sunbathing, and in Hermana, anything goes. There are many funky little shops, several pubs, dance clubs, bed and breakfasts, a gym and library. The town is inhabited both by people who believe in the power of the sisters and those who do not.

  The biggest and most well-known landmark is a huge New England Gothic-style house complete with turrets, which is where the sisters originally lived. Of course, it was just a shack when they first cobbled it together in the early founding days, but over the years there was the addition of wings, tunnels, wrought-iron fencing and lush gardens.

  One of their descendants lives there now. Lucy, who is about eighty, opens her doors now and again to the town for various celebrations. She has a core group comprised of twelve of the local ladies who meet with her monthly if not more to discuss life and love, cast spells and welcome the various equinoxes. Guests are often welcome when there isn’t a private ceremony and are allowed to bring questions to the witches.

  People flock to Hermana for answers. Some find them. Some do not. Others go for the rumored hedonistic pleasures and usually find something to entertain and entice them.

  Each month, the Witch Upon a Star series will focus on the romantic quest of a different lady connected to Hermana. ‘Swinging into Spring will tell the story of Toni, an Aries.

  The power of love and lust, magic and mysticism is at the heart of the town, which keeps beating as steadily as the waves that crash along the beach. Connections are made and lost. Passions ebb and flow. And still, the town continues to beguile the seekers, the wanderers and the lost to experience its hedonistic pleasures and unearth its darkest secrets.

  Welcome to Hermana.

  I hope you enjoy your stay.

  Welcome to the fourth book in Witch Upon a Star!

  Blessed Be!

  Aries Traits: Aries humans often suit their animal character, the Ram or Goat. They are motivated and ambitious climbers who will knock over anyone who gets in the way of their mission. They aren’t afraid to take risks and will leap towards the unlikeliest of places. They are often physically active people who participate in some kind of sport. The less athletically inclined enjoy self-expression through movement such as dance, yoga, or theater. Sexually, Aries are adventurous, aggressive and open-minded. They enjoy engaging mentally when they are physical, so mind games involving domination often turn them on. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and so Aries people can be childlike in many ways such as through innocence, selfishness, immaturity, curiosity, and tunnel vision. Their playfulness and enthusiasm is often infectious.

  Toni’s Forecast: This month you will find your limits pushed to
the brink. Use new and unusual opportunities for self-expression and self-reflection. The new moon energies will engage your imagination and lead you on a new journey.

  Chapter One

  The moon in Leo stirs horny and self-absorbed vibes to the surface.

  “More,” Toni cried out as the nameless, dark-haired man thrust into her repeatedly. She lay on her back on a mattress in the middle of a room surrounded by several other mattresses with couples copulating on them all. A dull, red hue glowed from tall, gelled lamps in the corners of the room. Thick, red drapes with golden cords hung along the walls, and shadows played along the ceiling. Toni thought of nothing but the pleasure of the man’s cock pumping in and out of her. His lovely wife, a muscular Amazon with golden tresses and firm breasts, massaged Toni’s breasts.

  The sounds of bodies slapping together and moans and groans of pleasure filled the room. Toni revelled in the nameless, faceless hands touching and caressing her. Lips on her own lips were soft and firm and rough and gentle as the couple inspired her pleasure. Her body quivered and throbbed with her orgasm, her cries of joy joining the other sounds in the night. Her partner leaned over her to kiss his wife’s mouth as he pushed into Toni one last time and came with a shout.

  * * *

  Toni flicked on the lights of her apartment and looked around. Everything was as she had left it, and that was good. She tossed her purse on the couch and stripped off her clothes as she made her way into the kitchen. Naked, she peered into the refrigerator and pulled out a beer. With a grin, she pushed the fridge door shut with her foot as she popped open the beer. She drank deeply from it as she made her way over to her computer. As she sank into her chair, she flicked the mouse. The screen lit up, and she started to surf.

  The first thing she checked was her horoscope. The one for Sunday had come in.

  A chance meeting with friends will lead to new situations.

  She wondered if the horoscope had meant what she had just done. She laughed.

  No, group sex was not a new situation, though it wasn’t exactly an old habit either. It was a hobby she indulged in now and again when the mood hit her or when she was horny and single.

  There were two swingers clubs right in Hermana. They were secret to the average person, but anyone in the scene would have no problem accessing them. There were even web sites and messages boards for people to meet and flirt on when the clubs weren’t open. For those who didn’t want the locals to know, there were several other swingers clubs and events dotted in discreet places in many of the little towns leading to Boston.

  Even though she was single, she was a young, attractive woman, and therefore welcome anytime, unlike single guys. She was never alone for long in the clubs as long as she was friendly and well dressed. There were endless couples who wanted to experiment with another woman, and she was happy to indulge in faceless, string-free sex.

  The couple she had played with weren’t new on the scene. She had seen them around before, and she imagined she would be seeing them again. Toni was good a separating sex from relationships, and she would have no issues with a repeat performance. She could look them in the eye and imagine his cock in her cunt and his wife’s lips on her tits, and it would mean nothing to her. She wouldn’t be jealous if she saw them doing someone else. She wouldn’t care if they flirted with her again. Just because she’d fucked them that night didn’t mean she had to swing with them again. She had been with five other couples over the years at the club. Sometimes there were repeat performances, sometimes there weren’t. It didn’t matter to her. And it didn’t seem to matter to the others involved either.

  The couple that night had been friendly and attentive. They knew what to do and she knew what to do, but together, the sex was merely adequate. Everyone had fun and came, then went about their business as if they had just bought some groceries and now had to put them away.

  The experience didn’t really bring her the highest high that she craved. She figured just the excitement of fucking strangers in a safe and discreet place would give her a thrilling rush—wouldn’t it for most people? But it didn’t.

  The first few times, she had been scared and excited about the concept of fucking in a club. About fucking strangers with no obligations or expectations except pleasure. It seemed almost sinful that people could join together for the same purpose and leave after fulfilling themselves.

  It was like when she first started to look at porn. Just seeing a picture of a cock in a cunt made her wet and trembly. It didn’t take much to trigger herself to orgasm. But now, she would watch several videos in a row, fast-forwarding to gang-banging and fisting and bondage, and still sometimes she needed just a little edge or something odd to get herself off. Sometimes just a glance from the model or moment of apprehension or power exchange that felt real instead of contrived; that moment of humanness would get her off.

  She hoped she hadn’t already peaked and sizzled with her sex drive and fantasies.

  She wanted more.

  Toni knew there had to be more, a more mind-blowing orgasm. Something that could be ignited by flesh and movement, not necessarily toys and props. She knew she would find it someday. She had experienced it plenty of times in her imagination. The ultimate orgy with the ultimate orgasm. Sweaty, vigorous, pulsing, penetrating sex that indulged the most extreme of senses until her body, mind, and soul exploded with pleasure.

  Maybe now she had just turned 25, something magical would happen to her.

  So far, she was pretty happy. She had a decent bartending job with palm reading on the side, she had just gotten laid and she had her own place. What more did she need?

  Good sex and a fun companion.

  Maybe soon.

  She finished her beer and went into her bedroom. She had a simple double bed with four posts that was still in disarray from that morning. Her dresser drawers were hanging open from her earlier rummaging. Books and magazines were piled on every surface, along with water bottles in various levels of consumption. Toni went into her tiny bathroom to brush her teeth. She looked at herself in the mirror.

  She quite liked her new bob. For years, she had worn her hair long and red, but over the holidays she had changed to short and black on her hairdresser’s advice. It made her look dramatically different. The only problem was that she had to keep going back to the hair salon to get it trimmed and colored. But her new look brought her lots of compliments and attention. She would have to go back again soon. Her natural light brown was starting to grow in underneath. She shook her head and moved her hair around to try to hide the roots. There would be no escaping the hair salon.

  She used a cleansing cloth to take off her makeup. A quick splash of water on her face and she was done.

  With her face feeling normal again, Toni went over to the tub and turned the large, brass taps. As the water spilled into the basin, she adjusted it until it was a good temperature. She turned on the shower and popped the shower massager from its handle. Stepping into the tub, she spread her legs and aimed it at her pussy. A smile touched her lips as the warm water pulsed against her still-swollen pussy. The steady pulsing reminded her of the firm and rhythmic pounding she had enjoyed earlier. With her free hand, she spread open her pussy to rinse away the night.

  Finally finished with her primping, she returned to the bedroom and crawled into bed. She curled up into the blankets and drifted off to sleep.

  * * *

  The alarm went off at 11:00, and Toni pushed away the blankets. A slight chill hung in the air, and she shivered as she made her way to the bathroom. In a daze, she did her business and brushed her teeth. She returned to the bedroom and grabbed her robe, and then it was off to the kitchen to make a pot of coffee.

  Once it was percolating, she sat on the couch and idly clicked through the TV channels. She found an old episode of Cheers and enjoyed it until her coffee was ready.

  While she was up, she opened the front door to her apartment to see if her Sunday paper had arrived. With a grin, she s
cooped it up and eagerly turned to the horoscope section as she settled back onto the couch.

  With the moon void of course for most of the day, new situations you encounter won’t turn out exactly as you anticipate. Plans made will yield different results than you originally intend. The moon entering Virgo later on will affect your decisions. Withhold your judgment until you have all the facts.

  Toni nodded as she flipped through the rest of the paper, reading the advice columns and the entertainment section. Hermana didn’t have the biggest newspaper in the world, but the Sunday edition was always thick and juicy with a myriad of articles. Every spring, the paper swelled bigger as the tourist season approached and the locals flogged their unique attractions.

  This edition was celebrating the beginning of April and the much-anticipated tourist season. Toni pulled out a thin but glossy and nicely formatted booklet that listed the various hotels and bed and breakfasts available in Hermana. She flipped through to see that her place of employment was also listed under restaurants, taverns and clubs. The place went by the initials CC, which stood for the Crone’s Cauldron.

  Many of the various residents of Hermana also had listings for their various unique services. Toni spotted Maggie’s tarot reading, Natasha’s séances, Adele’s aura art classes, Ursula’s tea leaf reading, Ellie’s feng shui and her own palmistry. There were three pages of counselors, and Toni knew there were many more who weren’t listed in the flyer.

  It was kind of cool seeing the town all summed up in the glossy pages by eating, sleeping, entertainment, history and shopping sections. She tossed the booklet aside and stood up.
