Dar helped his foster sister become the ruler of Hel, and helped her free the enslaved humans from the elves. It’s about time he helped himself – to a fun week of mayhem in the Windy City. Collapsing a few buildings and corrupting politicians is an ideal vacation for a demon in Chicago, but Dar didn’t count on a beautiful angel sabotaging his fun and putting him to work.
Asta is an angelic enforcer, scanning for demons in her assigned territory and sending them to an early grave. Unfortunately, the latest trespasser from Hel has diplomatic immunity - but immunity doesn’t mean she can’t coerce him into helping her track and dispatch the powerful demon that’s been cycling in and out of her radar for the last few days.
Demons are the sworn enemies of every angel, but Asta must learn to trust Dar or the dark presence that is growing in Chicago will spread - and this particular enemy has the skills and knowledge to send human civilization back to the dark ages.
She has one week left as an enforcer before she returns to her heavenly home – one week to catch an elusive monster, and one week to safeguard her heart from the demon who is determined to seduce her to sin.

Three Wishes by Debra Dunbar5 stars
In this book we have Asta and Dar. Asta is the youngest angel (although she is 3 million years old) and has one week left out of her century long assignment as guardian of the Chicago area. Asta goes around killing demons whenever they are foolish enough to pop up on her radar. Then there is Dar. Dar is a thousand year old demon that has been granted immunity and freedom to walk the Earth, provided he break none of the rules, due to being part of the Iblis's (basically Satan) household. Dar is out walking one day, causing minor mischief and discovering that he is becoming bored with life when he sees and senses Asta, and decides to have a little fun and drive an angel a bit crazy by waltzing around with his energy signature fully out, and then pulling out his immunity card, causing the angel to become angry that she had to waste a whole day chasing after him and doesnt even get to kill him for her efforts! But he doesnt count on an angel like Asta. She's unlike any angel he's ever seen before. Her human form is flawless for one, and she has her little sins. She loves her expresso, and her beautiful clothes. She loves everything about her city and the people in it. And she has one week left. Only one more week before she returns home, and Asta plans to sin as much as she can allow herself to before she returns home. She wants to experience food and music and all the other things she has been denying herself for so long, and will never have the chance to experience again. And the moment Asta sees Dar she is fascinated with him, and he with her. But, though Asta wants to make the most of her last week, she is an angel, and once she feels another demons energy, she feels duty bound to find and destroy that demon. The problem is, she's unable to find it. She encounters a problem she has never had before. Since Dar is also looking for the other demon (mostly to stay by the sexy angels side), they end up teaming up. I wont reveal what else happens, so as not to reveal any spoilers, but I have to say that I really really enjoyed this book. It made me laugh, it made my heart ache, made my heart flutter at times, and fan myself in one or two scenes and I found I just could not put it down. In fact, I've actually been up all night reading it. I tried to put it aside several times to try and get some sleep, but I just kept thinking of it and I wanted to know what was going to happen next, so I finally just succumbed to the inevitable and finished it all. Hopefully now I can get some sleep lol!
This book was especially enjoyable to read, as Dar has always been a favorite side character in the authors Imp series (which I HIGHLY recommend you read). He's always a bit gruff and crude, but deep down I'd swear that demon actually had a heart of gold...most of the time anyway, he is a demon after all, and does enjoy causing mischief and mayhem at times. But Dar has always been extremely loyal to those he cares for, those he loves (though no demons generally admit having that feeling for others), and I've always loved him for that. I was really happy to see a book that was all about him and was able to give him his HEA. And it was also nice to see a couple characters from the authors others books as well. All in all, I'd highly recommend it!
Note: I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review (though I actually had already purchased a copy prior to that). Any and all opinions and views are strictly my own.

Three Wishes eBook Debra Dunbar Reviews
This is a side story that tells the story of how Dar and Asta met. The majority of the novel is their romance, which is very high school. After being introduced in the prologue, The genie plot doesn't even really even start to get introduced until about page 75, and it doesn't really fully come into play until almost page 100. It still takes a backseat to the romance until the last few chapters. Then, it gets good, and the final battle is very worthwhile.
I did not like how Asta was portrayed. She came across as a spoiled, naive teenager, not a competent demon-hunter. There was, however, some interesting character development as she realized not all demons are evil. A lot more could have been made of it, though.
This is relatively standalone except for some references to the angelic/demon structure. However, I don't recommend it as a starting point as it is not nearly as engrossing as most of her other novels in this world.
This is not a stand alone novel. If you read it on its own the heroine, Asta, will seem more TSTL than she actually is.
The background is that the angels in Aaru (heavenish) went to war with each other 2.5 million years ago. They fought over two issues whether to give humans the gifts of Aaru to humanity and how to reach enlightenment. The angels sill in Aaru believe that enlightenment can only be achieved through asceticism and distance from beings who use their senses while the angels of chaos believed enlightenment could be reached while embracing the senses. The fight was long and sad it split families who fought against each other and many angels died. Finally, a truce was reached and the angels of chaos agreed to move to Hel. There were terrible consequences to the truce, the angels of chaos devolved into demons with no memory of their time in Aaru, the angels of Aaru are unable to have children because they cannot form them with each other, the races cannot enter the other’s realm, and there is a lot of residual resentment turned into hatred.
The angels in Aaru love and hate humans. They were the ones who wanted to give us the gifts of Aaru, but they now feel it was a terrible mistake. They feel guilty about what they see as the damage done to us, but they hate us because we revel in our passions and remind them of their mistake. They fear us because we can lead them away from their acetic ways and cause them to fall. Because of this, the angels maintain a form that can barely feel sensation when on earth and they keep their distance.
This book is bland compared to Debra Dunbar’s other books because it is a classic case of show me, not tell me. Dar is one of only two heroes I can honestly say I have a crush on. The other is Mr. Rochester (and I may or may not have had a crush on Lord Peter Wimsy when I was a teenager). Dar is loyal, bloodthirsty, tricky, funny, smart, brave, and can change his shape. Dar is a being who has greeting sex with his foster sibling Sam (heroine of the Imp series) that involves torn limbs, he's submitted a breeding contract with her (demons and angels have no determined sex), followed Sam into certain death, and saved her life over and over. He’s also thrown her under the bus a few times although his character is evolving. Where is that awesome being?
It is never really explained why Asta is so clueless, which is Ms. Dunbar’s style and one I appreciate. However that style does cause a problem if you haven’t read the series because it’s tough to understand how Asta could have lived among humans for 100 years without knowing anything about them. Asta lacks the depth a being 2.5 million years old should have. She must have been doing something all that time.
This is by far my least favorite book of the series because of the blandness, lack of action, and because it adds nothing to my understanding of this complex world. I was excited to have a book about Dar, but this one was super disappointing.
