Book Blurb:
“The wrong jinn at the right time, Zahara’s a force to be
reckless with.
Zahara, party girl of the paranormal, floats up out of a lamp in
Daniel Goldstein‘s apartment ready to trick a sorcerer into giving up his soul.
But Daniel, whose Moroccan grandmother has reached out from beyond the grave to
command him to raise a jinn, wants to do good—by stopping a vengeful fallen
angel.
The nymphomaniacal, shopping-obsessed Zahara isn’t the
otherworldly ally Daniel had in mind. A do-gooder with a dangerous quest isn’t
what Zahara’s looking for, either.
Stuck in a magical contract with each other, the two travel to
Morocco, where Zahara’s handsome friend Zaid, a jinn who’s converted to Islam,
reluctantly joins their quest. As Daniel and Zaid struggle against jinn-hunting
mercenaries and their attraction to one other, Zahara is forced to join forces
with the fallen angel’s gorgeous but infuriating brother to stop a cataclysmic
war between the human and jinn worlds.”
Review:
Upper YA and mature readers will enjoy this supernatural wild
ride as one human and two jinn race to save the world from fallen angels with
questionable motives. This was a quick,
fun read full of sarcasm-laced dialog and humorously inappropriate antics.
