I loved this book! It’s a modern take on a genie and his master, and it’s full of love, lust, drama and is written from the male point of view and our genie � Dimitri.
When I think of Genies, my first thought is of the television show “I Dream of Genie� or Disney’s “Aladdin� where the genie comes out of the bottle, this is not the case in this story. The genie bond is passed down to each generation of Dimitri’s family; it’s a genetic trait, so to speak.
This book is very well written, moves at a great pace, never lulls in action or sexy time and the emotions of our main character Dimitri are expressed beautifully. Occasionally there is a well-timed funny one liner included that gives you a laugh.
Dimitri is a strong person and wishes he had a normal life and was not stuck in this genie bond. Having to carry out his masters (Karl Walker) more violent requests does not sit well with him and when Syd enters his life this only increases his need for freedom. Syd is also a very strong character and is smart and will fight for not only her freedom, but Dimitri’s, as well. Their relationship is a steamy one, includes sexy love scenes and a nice progression with their feelings towards each other throughout the book.
The story became a little confusing towards the end when the mystery of this book is being revealed, however, this all comes together in the end.
Enthralling read that has stayed with me long after I’ve finished. I cannot wait to see where this series takes us.
5 stars!
