People are born with tattoos across their arms and chest, telling them of their future and their purpose in life.
The tattoos are more akin to birthmarks, like, a book means a teacher, a gun means a soldier and a series of X's means how many lives you will take.
These 'Marks' as they came to be known, were status symbols in society as well as curses on those who carried stories of so much pain and survival across their back.
Josh Hayhew was one of the few blank people in the world, people born without a tattoo or marking.
Josh Hayhew was blank until last night, when we woke up with a time on his wrist, below a name and below that, a time.
Now Josh must find this person, whoever they are before the time runs out, or who knows what will happen?

E-BOOK AND PAPERBACK AVAILABLE ON AMAZON NOW!! - - - MATURE AUDIENCES ONLY - - - When you're born, you are born with an engraving tattooed upon your skin. It is given to you, to determine what man or woman should be your lover. Who should be with you forever once you find them. If you find them. It's a mark that is only half-finished, the other half left on your soulmate's body. Heat emerges on the area of your mark when they're near, and cold grows the farther you are apart. For Anna Cardale, her shoulder is covered in what looks to be half of a wing. A beautiful red and delicate wing. She's quiet, stoic, and doesn't let anyone in. And she certainly doesn't care for a "soulmate" ever since escaping a terrifying past life. But when she moves to a new town and to a new school with a new care home family, her skin heats up. She feels her stomach churn in unnerved expression. It's as if something is yearning to pull her closer. And then she sees him. For it wasn't something that pulled her in. It was someone. And just like her, demons are living deep inside of his soul. Dreaded demons that keep him company. Can she heal him? Or is the other way around? Or perhaps the demons are always the ones who prevail... - - - "I'm sad that this wonderful book is coming to an end. 😢" - LlexieD "This book was phenomenal!
