The Genie's Wish

Raya
I’m content with the way my life is. Being able to do what I love, all from the comfort of my home, is something I’m grateful for. Living in a cozy, accepting town like Harmony Glen makes it even better, not that I really go out. I’m a homebody, and I like it that way.
I never have any problems or drama—until he shows up.
A genie who doesn’t even know me, appearing out of nowhere, claiming he can grant me some wishes to make me happier. What does he know about my happiness? I have no interest in wishing upon stars…or genies.
Somehow, he weasels his way into my life, and I’m left questioning what I really want—and he might just be a wish I didn’t know I had.

Travelling to Harmony Glen for new business ventures wasn’t supposed to be anything out of the ordinary. As soon as I got there though, it was everything but ordinary. I was captivated by Raya from the moment I saw her. Just from the way that she holds herself, I could tell there was something I could do for her—and I don’t want to play any tricks this time.
Unfortunately for me, she witnessed my trickery firsthand and doesn’t trust my motives.
Unfortunately for her, I have a whole lot of time and energy to put into gaining her trust—and hopefully her love in the process.
I can’t grant my own wishes, and she’s the only wish I’ve ever had.

Though they once lived in secret, “monsters” have inhabited the earth as long as humans. As technology advanced by leaps and bounds, the ability to remain hidden dwindled. Earth’s nonhuman creatures faced a choice: allow themselves to be discovered, or step forward and introduce themselves. Either option could have ended badly for monsters and humans alike—and in some places, it did.
But not in Harmony Glen.
After The Great Revelation, Harmony Glen welcomed monsters with open arms. This small, lakeside town in Upstate New York is now home to humans and nonhumans! Integration has been so successful in Harmony Glen, the town even changed its motto to “Come for the harmony, stay for the happily ever after.”
Welcome to Harmony Glen. We know you’re going to love it here.
