About the book
For fans of Laini Taylor’s Daughter of Smoke and Bone series and Leigh Bardugo’s Grisha Trilogy comes the first book in the Dark Caravan Cycle, a modern fantasy-adventure trilogy about a gorgeous, fierce eighteen-year-old jinni who is pitted against two magnetic adversaries, both of whom want her—and need her—to make their wishes come true.
Nalia is a jinni of tremendous ancient power, the only survivor of a coup that killed nearly everyone she loved. Now in hiding on the dark caravan—the lucrative jinni slave trade between Arjinna and Earth, where jinn are forced to grant wishes and obey their human masters’ every command—she’d give almost anything to be free of the golden shackles that bind her to Malek, her handsome, cruel master, and his lavish Hollywood lifestyle. Enter Raif, the enigmatic leader of Arjinna’s revolution and Nalia’s sworn enemy. He promises to release Nalia from her master so she can return to her ravaged homeland and free her imprisoned brother. There’s just one catch: for Raif’s unbinding magic to work, Nalia must gain possession of her bottle . . . and convince the dangerously persuasive Malek that she truly loves him.
She’s the last of her kind, trapped in a dangerous game between the master she hates and the enemy she can’t trust.
- Enemies to Lovers: Nalia must trust Raif, the revolutionary leader and her sworn enemy, to have any hope of freedom. But the sparks between them are as dangerous as the war that divides their people.
- A Darkly Powerful Master: To win her freedom, Nalia must play a treacherous game of seduction with Malek, her handsome and cruel master, who will do anything to keep her bound to him.
- Rich Djinn Mythology: Explore a world of ancient power, warring jinni castes, and a lucrative slave trade that stretches from the magical realm of Arjinna to the glamour of modern-day Hollywood.
- High-Stakes Action and Adventure: With a revolution brewing and assassins on her trail, Nalia must fight for her life, her freedom, and the rescue of her imprisoned brother.
