Ebony is a halfsoul trying to survive on the half rations provided by the government and what she can earn at her job. But she has a way out, if she’s willing to murder for it… something she won’t do. No matter that if she kills the woman who has the other half of her soul she’ll be able to claim full rations from the government, get a better job, education, and if she can find her soulmate, sex.
When she finds out she’s dying of cancer, she decides to sacrifice herself so her soulsister can have that full life. Now she just needs to find the woman.
Lark is a searcher, hired by halfsouls to find their other half so they can engage in a soulbattle to become full.
When Ebony hires Lark to find her soulsister, a spark flares between them, but how can they be soulmates if she doesn’t have a full soul and how can she possibly die for someone else if she falls in love with a man who shows her how good life can be?
Deception, control, and a race against time. There’s more to this curse than the gods or the government want people to know
