BLURB from Goodreads
Amelia Gareth's brother is a witch and the only way to save her family from the taint in his blood is to become a professed nun at Cathedral Reims. However, in order to become professed, she must endure trials that all nuns must face.
Surviving these trials is not easy, especially for Amelia, who is being stalked by shadowy beings only she can see. They're searching for people they can physically touch, because only those they can touch can see them. Amelia soon learns why she is being stalked when she accidentally harms her best friend with fire during the third trial. Fire is a witch's signature. The shadows are after witches.
Now Amelia must decide what to do: should she continue on her path to profession knowing there is no redemption, or should she give up on her dream and turn away from Cathedral Reims in order to stop the shadows who plan to destroy everything she loves?

MY COVER COMMENTS
I really like the soft colours used on this cover, the leaves falling from the tree. The face partly silhouetted, with strikingly beautiful green eyes. I like the font syle of the title name and the author names too. the series name could perhaps do to be a bit more noticeable. the cover really reminds me of a soft focus photograph.
Would the cover make me pick the book up from a bookstore shelf? Yes! I'd want to know more about the gorgeous female on the cover. Then upon reading the blurb my interest is definitely piqued and I'm going to be adding this to my Want To Read list on Goodreads.
