"Life without love, is no life at all." - Leonardo da Vinci.
The world has changed. It is now run by people who believe that every human must find love and if they don't, they're banished outside the city walls where there is nothing.
Each human has one chance at the age of sixteen to fall in love with the person they are paired with in six weeks or they will be left to die in emptiness.
Sixteen year old Scarlett understands this and she is willing to put everything on the line so that she can survive by falling in love with her match, and he with her.
One problem, he doesn't believe love exists.

Unconditionally
"What I was suppose to do? You left me, you went to Arizona." I shout at him as he storms away. "Wait for me." He shouts and I go mute. Did he really just say that? Had he really expected me to just sit around? "Oh yeah, just like you did for me." I finally say, finding my voice. "You moved on Elijah and it crushed me," I start as I get emotional and my voice breaks. "You think I don't know? You think that I wasn't hurt? I spent ten months holding onto you and even after that I still won't let you go, I still can't let you go." Elijah flips, shocking me. "You are everything Scarlett...and I am nothing without you." he says, eyes liquid as he stares intently at me. I notice how close we were to each other now. His hand on my waist now and I step in closer to him, heart racing like crazy. "I am nothing without you," he repeats quieter, leaning in towards me. For sixteen year old Scarlett Grey, happiness and love has never been in her favor...or life itself. But all that changes one crazy, complicated, and absolutely confusing summer...Read about Scarlett's tumultuous summer as she discovers things she never knew about life and love and the craziness of it all.Complete

Flowers - Sugarwara Koushi x Reader - (Soulmate AU)
Anything you wrote or drew on your skin appeared on the skin of your soulmate. That was something everyone was told as a kid. So what did Sugawara decide to do with this knowledge? Well... he decided to leave his soulmate flowers everyday. This is my first Soulmate AU book so I hope you enjoy it! It's kind of just a ton of fluff, but I think it's cute ;) My writing style changed a lot while making this so if anything feels weird/choppy/rushed then that's probably why. I also started this book during the summer and finished it during the school year so I took huge breaks from writing. I don't own any of the characters.Complete
