"Magic to the Bone" by Devon Monk (Adult - Fantasy)
Pretty good read actually. This is a new author to me and I found her writing to be quite engaging. She created a new world with an interesting female protagonist. Decent character development and plot lines as well as witty dialog. To summarize, it's a world where everyone can access and use magic, however the magic comes with a personal price. If you don't feel like paying the price and don't pay much attention to legality, you can offload it onto an innocent bystander. Allie Beckstrom's job is to hunt down these heinous criminals and bring them to justice. But what happens if the jerk is her own father? Beware, not everything is as it seems when corporate spies get involved.
