Dumped by her fiancé, out of a job and exiled to a sleepy Scottish village, Jinnie Cooper needs to get her life back on track.
To make ends meet, she starts work for the charismatic Sam Addin, owner of Out Of The Attic Antiques. When he gifts her a few items - including a battered lamp - little does she know she's only a few rubs away from magic and mayhem.
Genie Dhassim has two months to make her wishes come true as well as a few of his own. But what does Jinnie really want? With her affections divided between Sam and Ed McCroarty, son of pub landlord Ken, Jinnie seeks comfort from her family. In particular, her tea-leaf reading Gran, Wilma, who predicts love on the horizon.There's never a dull moment as Dhassim's WIFI (Wish Instigating Finder Instrument) grants everything from a magic carpet ride to indestructible hair. And letting him explore the outside world proves a nerve-wracking experience, as Dhassim has an uncanny knack of putting his pointy-slippered foot in it.
When Dhassim reveals he was once in love with alluring fellow genie, Aaliyah, Jinnie discovers the existence of a second lamp. She also shares a kiss with Sam, but fears they can only ever be friends. Meanwhile, Ed appears to be getting closer to down-on-her-luck single mum, Angela.With time running out for Dhassim and Jinnie growing closer to both Sam and Ed, their joint futures look uncertain. Can wishes really come true?
