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

After Officer Thornton left, Anissa turned to Dave. "That was a good visit, correct? They believe us now?"


"No not until we find Murdoch and put a stop to his shenanigans once and for all." Had he really just used the word shenanigans? The paint fumes must be getting to his head.


She twirled a lock of hair around her finger, adding a yellow stripe to the ebony curl. "Or until he finds us."


He couldn't stand the look of foreboding in her eyes. "That would just make our lives easier. Get it over with." Of course he wasn't in such a big hurry to get it over with, not if it meant Anissa would move on with her new life and leave him behind.


Okay that's it. Something in Dave's brain snapped. He was goddess-damned tired of being serious. He fought to keep from grinning as he eased the still-wet paintbrush out of Anissa's hand.


"What?" She looked up at him, total confusion in her eyes.
