I was given an ARC for free in return for an honest review.

This is a story about three young women who do not have any memory of who they are, not even their names. They soon figure out they have magic gifts. They remember they are “Firesouls”, and that they need to keep that hidden from the world because they will be put into a prison for the rest of their lives or killed. They also have some other “Magica” gifts as well that they use to set up a shop call “Ancient Magic”. This is how they make their living.

This is the first book of what I assume to be a trilogy. The first one is about Cass a Mirror Mage. She can borrow another's magic gift but since she always blows things up she tries not to use it. She is very good at using weapons instead. She uses her Firesouls gift (which is a dragon's love of treasure) to find other objects that people want.

In walks Aiden, a handsome shifter, who wants her to find “The Scroll of Truth” which then starts an adventure that could end in her death, prison, in love or all three.

The book is very well written, paced nicely and totally intrigued me. I'm looking forward to the other stories in this series.

P.S. This book contains no sex so it is safe for younger readers.
