Books like Relic by Renee Collins
Maggie Davis survives a devastating fire that destroys her hometown and leaves her alone to care for her younger sister in the Colorado settlement of Burning Mesa. In this world, relics—bones of extinct magical beasts such as dragons and sirens—are mined and used to harness powerful magic like fire, invisibility, and healing.
Working in a local saloon, Maggie befriends spirited showgirl Adelaide and develops a romantic interest in the roguish cowboy Landon. When her rare talent for manipulating relics is discovered, she is taken to the opulent hacienda of Alvar Castilla, a young relic baron who trains her in the art of relic magic.
As mysterious fires erupt in nearby towns, Maggie must uncover who is channeling relic magic for evil before the flames spread further, confronting the hidden dangers of a world built on the remnants of legendary creatures.
