The Forbidden Wish

"Lush, romantic, and exquisitely written . . . a rare, glittering jewel of a novel."â€”Sarah J. Maas, author of the New York Times bestsellingÂ Throne of GlassÂ series

"This is Aladdin like you've never imagined."â€”RenÃ©e Ahdieh, author of The Wrath and the Dawn

She is the most powerful Jinni of all. He is a boy from the streets. Their love will shake the world. . . .
Â
When Aladdin discovers Zahra's jinni lamp, Zahra is thrust back into a world she hasn't seen in hundreds of yearsâ€”a world where magic is forbidden and Zahra's very existence is illegal. She must disguise herself to stay alive, using ancient shape-shifting magic, until her new master has selected his three wishes.Â â€¨â€¨
Â
But when the King of the Jinn offers Zahra a chance to be free of her lamp forever, she seizes the opportunityâ€”only to discover she is falling in love with Aladdin. When saving herself means betraying him, Zahra must decide once and for all: is winning her freedom worth losing her heart?
Â
As time unravels and her enemies close in, Zahra finds herself suspended between danger and desire in this dazzling retelling of the Aladdin story from acclaimed author Jessica Khoury.
