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

When Anissa demanded her attorney, Johnson smiled, in a nasty sort of way, at the two men in suits who had been trying to make Anissa tell them what they wanted to hear, The female deputy jerked her head toward the door. "You heard the lady. No more questions until the lawyer arrives."


Both men shot vicious glares at Anissa and the deputy but they grudgingly stood and began to exit the room. Before they reached the door, however, it opened and Johnson's partner, Deputy Thornton, strode in.


"What?" the two men in suits demanded as one.


"Her alibi checks out." Thornton cast Anissa a stern look but he glared at the other two men with open distaste. "The newlyweds were picking up two pizzas and a large salad at Tino's Pizza Palace at almost exactly the time witnesses supposedly saw them across town. Mrs. Tino waited on them and she identified the little lady here down to the purple engagement ring and the puffy pink coat. Credit card transaction backs it up."
