A delightful and hilarious romance with a magical twist, about a young woman who finds her quiet world completely upended when her dog is transformed into a human man.
On the eve of Genie’s thirtieth birthday, her grandmother gives her an unexpected gift. For women in their bloodline, they can grant another family member’s wish at midnight. Genie laughs it off, and, after an evening fending off invasive questions about her nonexistent love life, returns home to her empty house and her golden retriever, Rory. As she hugs him and gets ready for bed, she wishes to herself that he were human—that would solve all her problems!
The next morning she wakes to a naked man sleeping in the dog bed.
Human Rory has big Golden Retriever Energy—like a dumb, adoring Hemsworth. But he doesn’t like being a human. He doesn’t like wearing clothes or human manners, and he would never manage a human job.
Genie needs to help turn Rory back. She enlists the aid of Miles, her oldest friend and boy next door, to track down a way to reverse her wish. The quest brings them closer than they’ve ever been before—perhaps Rory will be the key to granting her heart’s desire after all.
