Mitri Jaron likes to think of himself as the surly engineer who'd be perfectly happy if the rest of the universe went ahead and imploded on itself. His crew mates are sure that's an accurate summation of his personality. But their views change after a fateful night out. When Mitri finds himself putting his life on the line for a child he just happened to stumble across, no one is as surprised as he is. This little girl with red eyes and abilities he's never seen before is tugging his heart in directions he swore he'd never go. He just wants to get her back to her parents and out of his life so he could return to the status quo. It's hard to do that when everyone BUT her parents are trying to take her away from him. He really wants to know how a five-year-old ended up with more enemies than him.

Population levels have reached critical, forcing the government to step in. A new system is built - an assigned mate for 16-year-olds, one child per family, all done with a computer algorithm. Careers are determined by what job is needed and best suited for. Any deviation and they face the risk of becoming a Lower--the unwanted dregs of society. Or sometimes something far worse. Rebecca hates the system. She's paired with a cookie-cutter human called Jake, sees her dream job given away to a liar, and is forced to work in endless code as a programmer. Nothing is what she would choose for herself. When she and a boy with many secrets, Scott, discover a flaw in the system, they realize they can change everything. Jake could be with his real love. Rebecca could follow her dream of writing. Society can be turned on its head with the sweep of a keystroke. If they're caught, they face a fate far worse than becoming a Lower.
