Waking the Witch by Lisa Whitefern

Erotic Paranormal Historical



Summary: Faith Abbot is a good Puritan woman, but the magic inside an opal necklace begins to torment her with lustful thoughts.

For years her heart and body have craved handsome James Parris, a man twelve years her junior, a man she thinks should be courting women his own age. But now the magic of a ghost trapped in a jewel breaks down all her inhibitions.

When she and James surrender to the fierce erotic tension that pulses between them, her heart fills with joy.

But who is the angry female ghost dwelling within the necklace, wanting revenge?

And when Faith is accused of performing witchcraft in Salem Village, can James's love save her from the hangman's noose?

My Review: Since I’ve always been drawn to stories about the witch trails, I was immediately captured by this intriguing novella. Waking the Witch is set in 1691 during the Salem witch trials and focuses on two fictional characters all the while using names we’ve all come to know from that time in history to make this story seem authentic. It’s a short 34 pages, but long enough to do the story justice. The characters were well developed and I found myself caring about Faith and James and hoping fate would give them their happy ending.

The sex scenes were well done and although the language did seem to fluctuate between old English and modern, it was not a major distraction.

Overall Waking the Witch was an enjoyable, sexy read that I’m recommending to all my friends.

Rated 5 Delightful Divas and a Recommended Read by Diahann!
