In this society, everyone has a soulmate.
And the way to find yours is just look.
Along with a soulmate, everyone has a small tattoo on their cheek with a symbol. Some could be a star, a flower, a yinyang, a fish, or even waves. There are so many people that the symbols are almost limitless. The tattoos don't care about gender or number. There could be gay matches, and there could even be polyamorous matches. The tattoos will tingle when you are near to your sm. And they will glow if you have found only one of your sm's if your match was poly.
The trick is, you don't get the tattoo until you are 16. And even if you are near your match, as long as one of you are not of age, your tattoo will not tingle.
Also, they are normal tattoos (except you don't get it or choose it, it just appears) so you can get rid of it. But if you do, your sm won't die but they will get very sick.
The main characters of this story, Violet West (18) and Harper Black (20), both have a flame tattoo on their cheek. They live in the same state but for 4 years Harper paniced because she couldn't find her match. She wasn't sure if it was because her sm wasn't of age yet or if her sm lived far away. For 2 years Violet also paniced but she knew that some people don't find their sm for 5-10 years after they come of age, so she wasn't as scared as Harper.
One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle.

This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm. So if you feel uncomfortable with reading about that.. this book is not for you.
In the past, everyone had a soulmate but as time went on, not everyone had one as it was not just as common as it used to be. Most would have a soulmate but would never end up meeting them.
Those who did get to meet their soulmate were one in a million. You would have a soulmate if a tattoo showed up on your wrist at a young age and the tattoo would be something that would represent their other half.
If the two soulmates were ever to cross paths their tattoos will shine gold this was how you meet your soulmate and also why it was so hard to find your other half as the world is a large place filled with billions of people.
