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

"Okay, can the love-fest be over?" David stood and pulled the sheaf of pages from the tray attached to his computer. "Anissa, a few of these need to be stamped, or signed. Remember what we did on the passport?"


"Of course." Did he think she was a child, or an imbecile? She took the pages from his hand, looked for places where the color indicated a change in relief, or an after-printing addition and she made the alterations as she had the night before. The other two men looked on in amazement. When she finished, she handed David the papers then slumped back into the big leather chair, drained as usual after using her powers.


"Handy trick." Ben looked carefully at her passport. "That's how you made this?"


David nodded and handed her the can of cola which she sipped gratefully.


"Is it permanent?" Eric took the passport from Ben and whistled approvingly.


"Yes." David answered but Anissa held up her hand to stop him. She had to establish the precedent of speaking for herself.
