When Marielle was little, she used to believe Grandpa about his wish-granting Djinn. But now that she’s older, her beliefs have changed, and things like lousy ex-boyfriends and alcoholic fathers have become her reality. Life isn’t done shattering her truths, though, and when Grandpa dies and the Djinn he warned her never to trust shows up at her doorstep, the world becomes a dangerous, magical place she never knew existed. Reeling for her once-normal life, Marielle soon realizes there’s no going back—not when she’s become part of a mortal conflict between two spell-bound Djinn. Faris—her handsome slave. And Zet—his vengeance-hungry brother. They both want something from her. One, her love. The other one, her life. Now she’s afraid she will die in love.
Review
I just need to say, I am so glad I've given so many indie authors books a chance. Nine times out of ten they always blow my mind. In a good way! This was another one. This story captivated me right away. It held my attention until the very end. Which I will tell you, you'll be on the edge of your seat at the end biting your nails.
The writing is superb and so smooth, this is very much an easy read. It's a little bit of a redemption story, though not in the way you think. Plus! If you love a strong female lead with flaws this is the book for you. I found it very refreshing to have a lead that has real flaws. Not just the typical "I'm plain", "I'm one of the boys" or "Oh, I'm so unlikable".
