I have read a lot of paranormal/fantasy books over the last few years, so it is always exciting when an author can surprise me with something new, which blows me away! That is exactly what Rainy Kaye has done. She introduced me to a fun character, who has an interesting heritage that had me quickly flicking the pages as I was immersed into the action, the romance and the mystery of the story!!As you can gather from the blurb, Dimitri is a genie. He is not one of those fun 'make 3 wishes' kind of a genie, but one that is tied to a family bloodline that must fulfil whatever tasks the head of the family desires. It was exciting to see what he had to do and what would occur to him if he didn't. It is a lonely job for Dimitri, so he tends not to develop relationships. He does, accidently, find himself in a situation that has a girl getting under his skin. A one night stand that keeps occurring and no matter how rude or weird he is, Syd keeps coming back. He keeps his genie ways hidden and tries to have as much fun as possible with her. However, back to back wishes has Dim on edge and curious as to what is going on.I just loved Dimitri! He was fun, witty, but also deadly! He has had eight years to work on his skills and is used to getting the job done. It was sad to see him explain why he couldn't form relationships and why his life is so lonely. It doesn't stop him from picking up though… because he is a male with needs! Syd I liked too, but as neither character really opened up to each other, I didn't find out her secrets until late in the book. Dim makes her happy and it was nice to see her relax and indulge in him when she needed. These two have sizzling chemistry and when they are alone, they find it difficult not to keep their hands and lips off one another!!Rainy introduced some great secondary characters too. Karl, Dim's boss is an evil, calculating man, and I was puzzled as to what his plans were. Karl's daughter, Silvia was a bit wacko, and one situation with her had me confused, but I understood why later on in the book.  Even though I had a couple of minor issues with the story, they were minor and took nothing away from the amazing story that I read. It had me mesmerised and I loved every minute of Summoned!! I’m excited to see what the author has planned next for this series!!Complimentary copy provided by the Author in exchange for an honest review.
