Sometimes love needs a touch of magic...

Once voted the girl most-likely-to-succeed, Hildy Caldwell is now the one in the biggest rut. She has let her world get very small: a tiny cottage in rural Pennsylvania, two cats, and a ho-hum job. As for love? Nobody has ever measured up to her football hero high school sweetheart. If only she could meet him again . . .

Knowing that's wishful thinking, Hildy splurges on a summer rental on Long Beach Island, one of the Jersey shore's prettiest spots. There, she hopes the wind might blow a handsome man her way. Instead, she finds an abandoned bottle-with a two-thousand-year-old, meddlesome genie inside! Magic and mayhem follow, along with what Hildy's been wishing for: a meeting with the man she has never stopped loving.

With the genie's help, Hildy's dreams might come true. But spells and enchantment have a dark and dangerous side. And Hildy could lose everything-unless she finds out that true love is the best kind of magic.

"A wonderful cast of interesting and colorful characters make this a fast-moving and fun-to-read adventure... very entertaining and satisfying."
"Four Stars: Compelling"
--Romantic Times

"This fast-moving read has danger, humor and a fairy tale romance that's sure to entertain."
--Kimberly Swan, Darque Reviews

"Finn displays promise and personality to spare in her debut novel, an Arabian Nights spin on contemporary comic romance. . . Fans of high concept, multilayered fantasy-romance populated with quirky, comical characters will find this novel a charmer and Finn an author worth watching."
--Publishers Weekly

"This warm whimsical romantic fantasy stars an intelligent female and a pragmatic kind hearted genie. Ravine and Gene make the tale fun enabling readers to wish that the caring hunk who called a bottle home for the past sixty plus years is the type of person that we all fall in love with."
--Harriet Klausner

"Finn's paranormal romance provides fast-paced entertainment, and the various subplots involving nefarious attempts to gain control of large spreads of farmland, relatives with domestic troubles, and Ravine's mother's second-chance romance add depth and complexity to this new twist on Aladdin's lamp."
--Lynne Welch, Booklist

This wonderful twist on the genie-in-the-bottle story features a very human genie and an intelligent heroine who must make some hard decisions. It's a warm, sometimes humorous, sometimes serious and sometimes heart-wrenching magical love story with a touch of a mystery.
--Romantic Times

"A cute little book that would translate well into a movie.
--Night Owl Romance

"CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR was an emotional journey for Ravine as much as it was for me. Ravine's attempt to restart her life with Gene's help was tenderly portrayed. Readers will be eager to see Lucy Finn's heroine get everything she's dreamed of. I recommend CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR to anyone whose ever wondered what three wishes could do."
--Romance Junkies Reviewer: Kerensa Wilson

"CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR is the brainchild of author, Lucy Finn. Gene and Ravine are an exciting couple who felt remarkably like close friends. I laughed, I cried, and I shed a few tears before the end of the book. With wonderfully romantic and sensual love scenes, Ravine and Gene come together in a dramatic way; sensually and emotionally lighting up the story with their presence. The secondary cast is fully developed and adds that extra "something" to the story, from vile Scabby Hoyt to cousin "Freddy" and Ravine's, mother Clara, I was entranced. Readers are sure to love this wonderfully fresh and fun poke at the classic "Genie in a Bottle" stereotype."
