The Genie Ignites — Kellyann Zuzulo

Girl meets genie. They fall in love. Girl gets killed. Genie gets cursed. Three millennia later, she's reincarnated as a smart, somewhat sardonic 21st century editor who can't remember the great love of her existence. The genie however, will never forget her.

Bethany O'Brien is a 21st-century woman with a career, ambition and bills. She has no recollection of how she once felt about a nearly 4,000-year-old genie named Zubis who suddenly invades her world, but he certainly remembers her. In a previous incarnation, Bethany was an important temple priestess who apprenticed to the djinn. Zubis, powerful and alluring, is infuriatingly bemused by Bethany's skepticism. Once upon a time, he vowed to love her forever and has no plans of breaking his vow. And although the priestess she once was had been taught that a romance with a djinni must never be, Bethany gradually realizes that her love for Zubis cannot be forgotten. Along with the returning glimmers of her past life, Bethany is forced to confront a mandate from an ancient society to kill the genie of her dreams.
