About this listen
They call me an abomination. A mutant. A curse on their kind. I don't let it bother me. Much.
My name is Holly James, and what they say is true. I'm a freak of nature - a null. My mere presence saps the magic from others, rendering them powerless. That's why they hate me. But here's the kicker: I've found a way to profit from my lack of mojo.
Whether it's acting as a mystical wet blanket in a dispute between pyromancers or keeping hormonal shifters from changing during a sweet 16 party, I provide a highly specialized service. For a hefty fee.
When a young witch turns up dead, clutching an amulet cursed with black magic, my estranged grandfather asks for my help. In return for nullifying the necklace, Gramps promises to find my missing mother - a witch who vanished after my birth. Of course there's a catch. He wants me to assist Cade McAllister, the arrogant sorcerer in charge of investigating the case.
Cade resents my existence, let alone my attempts to help. Still, I'll do whatever it takes to find my mom. For my own peace of mind I have to know what happened to her, and I won't allow anything to get in my way.

A really easy and enjoyable read (listen)
This book just … flowed along really nicely. I enjoyed engaging with the idea of a null, a nice flip on the norm. The story was well thought out and the characters had distinct personalities. The FMC is persistent, relatively intelligent and assertive, and those qualities are really nicely balanced by a pragmatic, reasonable and rational side. The story was complex enough that I didn’t have any “it’s so obvious aaarrrgghhh!! come on, as if they’d be that stupid” moments, and Holly Jackson really did justice to the author’s work. I looked to see if any more were available so I’ll definitely consider the next one. I’m not sure if I’d immediately drop one of my monthly credits on it, but if there are ever multiple books in a boxed set, I’d drop a credit on 2-4 without hesitation.
I’ll be looking forward to seeing where the second book goes
