Professor David Garavaglia is nobody’s idea of a hero. Is he? When David opens an antique box and finds a sexy Djinni in his bed, his desire for her is almost as powerful as his determination to set her free.  Anissa has spent centuries as a prisoner of the box and has dreamed of the day some handsome master would release her. The scruffy computer geek isn’t what she expected, but there’s something about him she can’t resist.

While David and Anissa explore their explosive passion, he helps her adjust to the twenty-first century. Complicating things is an evil wizard who wants Anissa for his own. Between scorching attraction and hacking government computers, David does everything he can to keep her safe—and satisfied.

Djinni and the Geek

By the time he finished altering the picture on the screen, she had lost interest in the process and roamed over to inspect the books lining the shelves on the far wall. There were a great number of heavy tomes that seemed to be academic in nature, with subject matter like mathematics and physics and history. There was also a vast collection of smaller paper bound books that proclaimed themselves fantasy or science fiction.


"Finished!" David's exultant cry was followed by a mechanical humming and whirring. Soon, pages of white paper began to spill from one of the computer boxes.


"You made a copy of a passport from this country - with my name on it?"


"Exactly." Now all we have to do is make sure the paper matches, the seals are impressed, then trim and bind the pages."
