finding something beautiful without looking for it


DESCRIPTION

Jasmine has always had a tough life. But since she's been an adult, since she met Cherry, everything was clicking into place. Almost everything. She has everything she could want. Except for a mark on her wrist declaring to the world that she has a soulmate. She's well into her twenties, and she knows that she'll never have a mark. She'll never have a person she truly feels is for her. Not in the way it's supposed to. She's made her peace with it. At least, that's what she tells herself.

Anthony is miserable. He's jumping from one dead-end job to the next and he's lonely. He is so tired of being lonely. He's so tired of trying. He was born without a mark connecting him to a soulmate and he doesn't see any point in making peace with that. And one night, he gets so fed up, that his soul cries out for its other half. The problem is, he doesn't have another half. Well, not in the traditional way.

Somehow, Anthony and Jasmine dream of each other. Somehow they have an unprecedented connection and it changes everything they thought they knew about soulmates.

Their relationship should be easy. But it isn't. Jasmine isn't able to give her trust out freely, Anthony's friends don't trust her and Cherry is an obstacle that Anthony just can't seem to get around.

The couple had something beautiful without actively searching for it, but they're in danger of losing it all. Finding your soulmate is hard. Keeping them is even harder.

I won't be putting trigger warnings at the beginning of each chapter. I will list the full book warnings here, though.

This story contains mature content including graphic violence, past drug addiction, mentions of past sexual assault, depression, loss of pregnancy/baby, mentions of incarceration, explicit language, kidnapping, torture, murder, graphic depictions of attempted suicide, sexual situations, and drug use.

This book deals with heavy topics and while the romance isn't dark, a lot of the situations are. Read at your own risk.
