Description
A girl of the desert and a jinni born long ago by the sea, both enslaved to the Salt King—but with this capricious magic, only one can be set free.
As a daughter of the Salt King, Emel ought to be among the most powerful women in the desert. Instead, she and her sisters have less freedom than even her father's slaves . . . for the Salt King uses his own daughters to seduce visiting noblemen into becoming powerful allies by marriage.
Escape from her father’s court seems impossible, and Emel dreams of a life where she can choose her fate. When members of a secret rebellion attack, Emel stumbles upon an alluring escape route: her father’s best-kept secret—a wish-granting jinni, Saalim.
But in the land of the Salt King, wishes are never what they seem. Saalim’s magic is volatile. Emel could lose everything with a wish for her freedom as the rebellion intensifies around her. She soon finds herself playing a dangerous game that pits dreams against responsibility and love against the promise of freedom. As she finds herself drawn to the jinni for more than his magic, captivated by both him and the world he shows her outside her desert village, she has to decide if freedom is worth the loss of her family, her home and Saalim, the only man she’s ever loved.

Steph E, Reviewer
Daughter of the Salt King is one of my new favorites. I loved it. It is so well written and the atmosphere is perfect. It is the story of a woman named Emel and her life as the Salt King's daughter. The women are treated horribly and her dad is just a monster. Awful Anyway, she meets Saalim who is a jinni, and everything starts to change. I just loved this story and the relationship between Emel and Saalim. I can't wait to read more by this author.

OMG I can’t believe it ended like that! I need more! This was so much better than I even anticipated after previewing the first couple of chapters. Emel was such a unique heroine. But I loved her and I loved Saalim. There was such tension and suspense throughout the book that kept me going. I almost read the whole thing in one sitting (I would have too if I hadn’t had to get up for work the next morning). I viscerally felt Emel’s anguish over her choices; I thought the author did a great job evoking emotions.
I just need more of the story now!
