I Dream of Djinni!
8 Sep 2005
By Reader Woman
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Monica Jackson has done it again--given all of us African American romance readers who enjoy a walk on the paranormal side another gem to enjoy. I read this book straight through--couldn't put it down. I loved the magical elements of this novel. I love that it is connected to In My Dreams and carries the theme and message of preparing for the last days and the final battle between demons and humans--good and evil. But what I loved most of all was the way she weaved in humor. What can I say. I laughed. I cried. I got really scared. Jackson took me there and back and I loved it. The heroine, Jasmine Flynn, is a black woman who has made some mistakes in her past and has some internal demons to deal with of her own. The hero, Raziq, is a djinni (that's genie to all you non-pc-folk) who is fine as all get out, feels her pain and wants to help her through it. (Having a flashback and stopping to fan myself--okay.) Anyway, the chemistry between the two of them is hot. Their passion and the love that develops between them is unforgettable. And just like with In My Dreams, Jackson has given readers just the right mixture of the paranormal, suspense, and romance. This book is a winner! Pick up your copy today!

Hey, how do I get my own hot genie???
24 Sep 2005
By Roslyn Holcomb
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Okay, let me start by saying that under normal circumstances I DO NOT like paranormal romances. As a matter of fact, this is my first book in this genre, and my first by this author. I've typically found paranormals to be long on weirdo stuff, and very short on character development. Well, Love's Potion proved me wrong in my prejudices. These characters are deftly crafted, and so interesting that from the very beginning I cared what happened to them.
Ms. Jackson did what many authors fail to do; she created a hero that the reader can't help but fall passionately in love (and lust) with. I mean, what normal woman wouldn't love to have a totally hot genie (pardon me, djinni) grant her one wish? Sounds like the stuff of my fantasies anyway. But of course, it doesn't quite pan out that way (does it ever?) The course to true love never runs smooth, but poor Jasmine and Raziq have a bit more to contend with than usual; demons and sorceresses and even an honest-to-goodness succubi. But no incubi, oh well, maybe in the next book Ms. Jackson?
And did I mention that not only is this book hot and steamy with an engaging story that I couldn't put down, but its also mad funny? Ms. Jackson has a rapier wit that comes through in this story that had me laughing out loud at times (when she wasn't scaring the bejesus out of me!) All in all this was a great book, and I can't wait to get my hands on her backlist.

Love's Potion
10 May 2009
By Nichole
- Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This is a good book. It is anything but typical. Raziq is a dream and Jasmine is a typical woman struggling with mistakes she's made and hurts from her past. The story kept me on my feet. I never knew what to expect. It was not predictable and that was refreshing. I wish the romantic scenes had been more sensual instead of so raw. I thought Raziq and Jasmine would take long relaxing baths with flower petals by candle light, wash each others hair and cook gourmet food but that's not how it turned out. I do recommend this book. All the otherwordly stuff was interesting and yet it made a lot of sense on some level. I can't wait to read about Bless in "In my dreams".
