How far would you go to find The One?

A simple DNA test is all it takes. Just a quick mouth swab and soon you’ll be matched with your perfect partner—the one you’re genetically made for.

That’s the promise made by Match Your DNA. A decade ago, the company announced that they had found the gene that pairs each of us with our soul mate. Since then, millions of people around the world have been matched. But the discovery has its downsides: test results have led to the breakup of countless relationships and upended the traditional ideas of dating, romance and love.

Now five very different people have received the notification that they’ve been “Matched.” They’re each about to meet their one true love. But “happily ever after” isn’t guaranteed for everyone. Because even soul mates have secrets. And some are more shocking than others…

A word-of-mouth hit in the United Kingdom, The One is a fascinating novel that shows how even the simplest discoveries can have complicated consequences.

10/10!!!!!. Best book I’ve read in a long time, and I’ve read at least 12 books this year! Definitely a must read.

Nitestormz

One. At first, so many characters and I thought I wouldn’t like it but then I really started getting into their personalities and the storyline.....awesome book! Nitestormz

Gripping. Couldn’t put it down. Barely slept because I couldn’t stop reading. I kept thinking “I’ll go to sleep after this chapter”, but crazy things keep happening at the end of every chapter and I needed answers!! Mysteries are usually predictable to me as most follow the same formulas but this one was a breath of fresh air. So fast paced, never got boring. Recommend reading on a day off work, otherwise you’ll be thinking about it your whole shift and counting down the minutes until you can open it back up!

Awful. Truly revolting. I’m not sure why anyone would enjoy this book. Just one terrible thing after another and some of it quite gross. Just no point at all except to make people uncomfortable. No thanks.

Kigennoriko

AMAZING!. I couldn’t stop myself from reading it in one sitting! I just had to know what was going to happen next!

Yvette Br.

4.5 Stars. 4.5 Stars I really enjoyed this book. I don’t usually read thrillers and this one kept my interest the entire book. Loved all the twists for each story line. Nick/Alex and Jude/Kevin/Mark were my favorite characters and I loved how their stories turned out. All the other storylines were great though. I felt the worst for Maddy as her storyline was kinda sad. Though I hated the casual racist remark about potentially being matched with someone black…..completely unnecessary and just disappointing.

Dylan Iskander

Fascinating Concept!!. What a pleasure it was to read this book. Unique premise based on several different couples as they pursue love. Each story is filled with unpredictable twists and turns that make your heart race as you rapidly turn the pages. A truly remarkable book!!!

Lola655

5 stars!. When i first started reading, I literally had no idea where this was going! I found myself within the next week unable to put the book down (or at least my phone down). This book had me on my toes! Can we get a sequel please!

Gus4422

Great book!. This book was full of twists and turns and would make a terrific movie. Characters were well thought out and stories were interesting.

ToReadIsLife

OMG!!!. Drama, drama, drama! I felt like I was reading a modern day soap opera - in the BEST way possible!!! Hands down, the best book I’ve read in a really, really long time. I couldn’t put it down!

Ilovekatyperry01

Give it a chance!. Kept me entertained the whole time! Each story life made me feel like I was a part of their life. I couldn’t put the book down. Easy to read and worth your time. Check it out

ZacRino

Entertaining with a unique plot. Well-written, easy read with unexpected twists.

Lads62

Page turner!. Fascinating concept and interesting character development. Overall an exciting, fun and thrilling read.

Momo2019

Couldn’t put it down!. This book was so captivating that I read it in one sitting!

EllBlazer2019

Great Read!. I was absolutely on the edge of my seat throughout the story. (I’d seen and enjoyed the show as well, but hadn’t connected it with this book.) I would love to see a “Machine of Death” style short story anthology set in this world-so many ripe possibilities for interesting stories.

Robyngor1

Then One is Drivel. What a piece of derivative trash. Joe Ayla one of the Worst books I have read in years.

Phxsmith

The One. Great story and written in a unique and fast paced style. Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Doxdiva

Very interesting and quick read. Science, “chemistry” and attraction in choosing your mate go to a compelling theme. I enjoyed this book...and the discussions it provoked

H.Henning

Predictable. Interesting premise, but about halfway through it jumped the shark for me. At the end of every chapter I would just imagine to myself what is the most soap-opera thing possible and 9/10 it would be right.

Loved it. This book was awesome and had me constantly thinking about the cliff hangers and racing to get to the next chapter. I put everything on hold and finished it in less than two days because I HAD to. Really enjoyed this book!

Snowbirdont

The One. Unique and interesting story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Will watch for more from this author.

Myperception

The one. Surprising twists and turns around a topic that very relevant with so much happening around DNA. A great book club book!

Carebear3589

Unstoppable. I could not put this book down! The characters and the different ways their matches unfolded was enthralling. I loved loved loved it! Addictive stuff
