But when seriously dark magic spells trouble for both of them, Kal can’t help himself from falling for the woman who holds his fate in her hands…

Warmly acclaimed by readers and critics alike, Judi Fennell brings to life a fabulous world of magic and mayhem where wishes come true in the most unexpected ways!

Samantha has just lost her father and has just figured out she is being used once again by her boyfriend; she is distraught and feels that she is worthless.  Man does her life take a complete 180 when she discovers Kal and finds out she inherited a genie from her father.  Her wish is to disappear and not have to face reality and he soooo makes that happen.  Kal brings her to Izaaz, a magical land where magical beings live; everything from leprechauns to unicorns, gnomes, goblins, dragons, and the list goes on and on.  There are quite a few funny moments when all these characters get together; too many bored creatures and too much magic in one place makes for a lot of fighting.

Sam feels that she can actually do some good on her own, and proceeds to throw wishes around like candy, she wants to make everything and everyone happy and Kal is all to willing to grant her every wish.

Sam is his last master, if he completes this one he can than fulfill his ultimate goal of being head-master and will not have to be the servant any longer.  The problem is he has feelings for Sam and he is torn, does he really want to leave her, is he willing to step away from his dreams.  While chaos is ensuing Albert (Sam’s messed up ex-boyfriend) is trying to find Kal, he needs his own genie to get him out of trouble, forget Sam he has no more need for her with a genie around.

What makes things difficult is the moment when Kal and Sam start getting a little passionate, she realizes she is still wishing for things and decides to make one final wish to not be able to wish for anything again.  She knows that is why Kal is so HOT for her, if that were only the case.  Things get a lot more interesting after that final wish.

I actually enjoyed this book a bit more than the first one, have to say there was a short time in the middle of the book where I started to get a tad bored but things quickly starting picking back up and it ends on a high note.
