In the year 2110, technology has advanced drastically.  Of course, there are both pros, and the cons to that.  One of the many pros though, is something that can help spare the risk and feeling of heartbreak  "forever."   When every new child is born, they are given a necklace with a charm of half a shape, or half of some kind of object.    Arielle Carter was born, and given a necklace with a charm of half a heart.  As she grows up, she will move on through many journeys, one of them being finding her soulmate.   The necklace she was given at birth is crucial to this journey, since the closer you get to your soulmate, the warmer the charm gets.   This all seems like a perfect plan to Arielle, what could be easier than having technology tell you when you find your perfect match?  Her idea of perfect is crushed when she finds out the twist.    If the owner of the necklace does not find their soulmate by the time they reach the age of 19, their necklace gets taken away from them, and they will have to agree to an arranged marriage, with someone they don't even know.  Another twist?  You CAN'T get a divorce, or split up.  Once married, you're together forever.  Even if you hate your partner with a burning passion.  It's like signing a contract that lasts a lifetime, there's no way out of it unless you take extreme measures.    Will Arielle find her match in time, or will she have to have her life planned out for her?

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.

One day though, they feel their tattoos start to tingle. ____________________________________ *Will they be happy with who their soulmate turns out to be? *Will they recognize each other? *Will they be happy? *Will they break apart? -Read to find out. :) ____________________________________ This book is rated mature because there is a lot of talk of depression and self harm.

The fact that no one will give her any answers to why she's so different doesn't help matters. Her entire existence is shrouded in secrets that everyone around her refuses to reveal. After a family tragedy, she moves to a new town, and she gets her first chance to at least pretend to be 'normal.' For the first time, she's allowed to leave the house and go to an actual school.

Everything she believed about herself and the world around her is changed in an instant. Family secrets come to light one after another, turning her entire world upside down in the process.

Before she can even recover from the shock, she's thrust into a war that she hadn't even known existed. Loyalties will be tested. She'll have to choose sides between all of the people she's come to care about. Will she stand with her family, her new friends, or the two boys who both hold a piece of her heart?
