Blurb: Playing the part of another man’s husband to fulfill a wish is easy, but what happens at midnight when the magical day is over?
Scott Baxter is a workaholic with no time for love, until a djinn pulls him out of his life and deposits him into the bed of Cameron Kirk. Cut off from his life, Scott isn’t happy about the idea of being forced to help the djinn grant an unspecified wish, but he soon finds he has no real choice in the matter. The djinn, who has turned his life upside down, has powers that prevent Scott from leaving and ensure he does nothing to ruin Cameron’s day with his ‘husband’.
Reluctant at first, Scott finds that as the day progresses he starts to enjoy playing the role of Cameron’s husband. He connects with his unexpected lover in a way he never has with other men.
Scott searches for clues to help him track down Cameron after the day is over and he returns to his own life. He doesn’t want the day to end, but the wish is out of his control and when the magic is finished his time with Cameron may be over too.

Review: I have to say for a short story this packs a big punch. I was expecting a very sweet but predictable story. You know men meet, have sex, and fall in love, happy at least for now. Wow was I floored.
It started out pretty much that way. We met Scott just after he was magically taken from his motel bed and dropped in the bed of another man, Cameron. His instructions are very vague, but he can’t leave for 24 hours. After that he goes back to his old life, but retains the memory of this one day.
Cameron, Scott’s husband for the day believes they have dated for years, and been married for 6 months. Scott is there to fulfill the perfect day of wedded bliss.
What’s the catch? Where Cameron knows everything about Scott as if they had met years ago, Scott knows absolutely nothing about Cameron, not where they live, or his last name, nothing.
I loved how the Djinn would drop in occasionally with cute vague hints for Scott. The day they are together is the predictable part. I was sitting there with a contented sigh and BOOM! The twist start coming in. Oh, my Gosh I cried and cried!
I can’t think of a thing I didn’t like. I would love more of this Djinn and see what kind of romantic magic he could do.
If you like sweet romance, Magic, Djinn’s, believe in soul-mates, want a good cry and some loving , hot, fun, mansex, you MUST read this.
