This week, my swoon is from The Fire Wish by Amber Lough!
My hear beat a little faster. "It's still me," I said.
He smiled. It was like the sun rising after an endless night. "Then it doesn't matter what you are." He pulled me closer, and I was melting in his eyes. They were like jasper, green and brown, and they drew me in. He closed them, then placed his lips on mine. He was warm and tasted like cinnamon.
His kiss was like transporting to another world, and it was just as frightening and exciting as my first trip to the palace had been. Every vein in my body flushed, knowing that he didn't care I was a jinni. I didn't have to pretend I was a human, or a princess, anymore. He pulled away and a lopsided smile spread across his face.
- ARC, pages 282-283

I LOVED this book! Jinni for the win!
Oh, that is so sweet. I haven't seen this book before or read a story with a Jinni in it. It sounds interesting. Might need to add it to my collection.
