In a world where soulmates are the only reason to live, Noel was down on her luck. It was an unwritten rule that you found your other half when you turn 18, and at the age of 24, she wasn't feeling hopeful.

"Nobody likes me. What's wrong with you man?" I said, a small smile spreading across my face as my bad mood got replaced by amusement. Ethan met my gaze and let out a small laugh. "I guess I'm an exception then." He said, smiling at me as I rolled my eyes at him. An exception? Yeah, well at least he was different from other people that's for sure...
