4.0 out of 5 stars
Above average romance novel,

This review is from: Wish And A Kiss (Harlequin American Romance) (Paperback)
I stumbled across this book at the local swap shop and was impressed enough to search it (and the author) out to see if they have anything else written I might like to buy. Once you get past the whole premise of a sulking genie who suddenly appears, this book quickly became a 'can't put it down' journey into paranormal romance. Chelsey's issues over her polio-weakened leg were credible, as was the strength of character she developed to compensate for it.
Alex was just ... hot. How he became a genie and why he is so contemptuous of humanity is introduced early enough into the story that it made what would otherwise be a very fantastical character credible ... especially his joy at the simple sensations of the material realms. And ... a few points in this story had me crack up laughing. And once ... I even almost cried. Better than an average romance novel. My only complaint, as a normally sci-fi freak, is that there was no 'science of becoming a genie.' Although at least there were 'rules.' Alas ... but if the author went into the physics of genie magic ... then this wouldn't be published by Harlequin, I guess. If you're looking to bulk up on two-dozen romance novels from the 'gently used' section of Amazon using their super-saver shipping, then I'd recommend you BUY this book even though it's an older title. I'll definitely be looking to BUY other works from this author.

Charming, funny, sensual - until the last 1/4,

This review is from: Wish And A Kiss (Harlequin American Romance) (Paperback)
A Wish & Kiss is worth spending a few hours on. Itfeatures an archeologist heroine who uncovers a nifty little lamp thatturns out to contain a very sexy genie named Alex. He announces his presence to our stunned heroine with this line "I have come to do your bidding mistress". How can one not read on? What follows is a fun, sexy romance where the couple spend a lot of time together and get to know each other well before committing. The book begins to drag towards the end as the focus shifts from their relationship to a mad chase around the country as they try to salvage Chelsey's career. Despite that little slow down, the book is most definitely worth searching for if you like magical stories filled with laughter, sensuality and strong characterization.
