Jeannie's Bottle, Incantations (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069569103)

Spirited twelve-year-old Jeannie is devastated by the unexpected loss of her mother. And after her father's successful dentistry practice takes a mysterious dive, the family moves to Aunt Marid's for a fresh start in the picturesque town of Shallow Cove. Amidst the challenges of adjusting to a new school and home, Jeannie encounters a series of strange events, hinting that something potentially sinister may lurk beneath the quiet surface of Shallow Cove. When she discovers a magical bottle in her aunt's antique shop, she inadvertently releases Dru, an eager but inexperienced young Jinn who grants her one wish a day. Finally, an easy way to deal with all her troubles!

With newfound power and help from her Jinn, Jeannie embarks on a thrilling adventure, using her "wishes" to navigate her new life, deal with the school bully, and uncover the truth about her mother's demise. But someone in town seems determined to stand in her way and wreak even more havoc in her life. Accompanied by a small group of unlikely new friends, Jeannie works to unravel the secrets of Shallow Cove before they unravel her. As the line between reality and fantasy blurs, Jeannie must summon her courage and wit confronting what lies ahead without exposing Dru and his secret world and remembering to heed Dru's advice:

"And I say this Jeannie, with the utmost of respect,

Be cautious and be mindful. Every wish has an effect."
