Glory St. Pierre never thought so many lies could hold so much truth, especially when her entire life has been one of those lies. Now that she knows who she really is, she must find a way to come to terms with it before the Djinn sorcerer Rasputin and his steel army descend down upon the human and Djinn realms, wielding magic so dark even her own Djinn lover, Irving, is wary of it.
Their only hope to save the realms are a couple of hunters and the Lords of the Djinn Order, four powerful Djinn who have remained elusive for centuries. Armed with her only granted wish, a fabulous airship, and the Djinn she loves by her side, Glory will embark on a quest to find the four lords and enlist their help. But there is a reason the lords have been in hiding, and once this tiny band of adventurers awakens them from their slumber, they will set off a chain of events that has been in the making since the beginning of time.
There is no turning back now.

REVIEW
This book was an exciting ride through a thrilling fantasy world. Fast paced, spellbinding and action-packed, it did not disappoint one bit.
Wish For Me was a fantastic read that introduced me to the Djinn in a truly magical manner, Dream of Me, allowed me an inner look into Shrinelyn and all of it's fascinating beings. I loved how A. Star intertwined the existence of various types of creatures, and her world building is just so amazingly imaginative and descriptive, I could almost picture myself right alongside the characters as they went on this adventure.
Glory is a spitfire. I loved her sassiness. She felt real in every way, as did all the other characters, even the paranormal ones. Each character that I met along the way had their own distinctive personality; they were all well rounded individuals, and I couldn't help being drawn to them.
With the way book one ended, I was expecting plenty of drama, and boy did I get it - tenfold. There was never a dull moment in this story, and I am still awed by how spectacularly this book was pieced together. It was a solid read, with strong characters and enthralled me to no end. Perfection!
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
A. Star is a fan of dirty passion. She loves to read it, and she damn sure loves to write it. She is the author of the Mythos: Gods & Lovers series and the Djinn Order series. She is a night-owl and a coffee junkie, and the only sneaker she would be caught dead wearing are Converses.Author links:
