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.

"So how are you holding up with this whole fake marriage thing?" Lori lifted the babe to her breast with a tender smile and encouraging words that were not, Anissa noted, the goo-ing sort of baby talk she had disparaged moments earlier.


Anissa dipped her head. "It would be easy, very easy, to forget that it is a ruse. David is - a very special sort of man. But then you must know that."


Lori's laugh was wry and friendly. "I know he's crazy but in a good way. I know he totally lacks social skills, though a few seem to surface when he's around you. He's brilliant and funny and loyal and not nearly as unlovable as he thinks he is."
