A review by julielb
The Arc by Tory Henwood Hoen
4.0
This was a reread for me and I liked it just as much the second time around as the first.
Told in third person but from two different p.o.v.'s, Ursula (primary p.o.v.) and Rafael, it's about an organization that promises to match you with your soul mate, your best love, the best match for you if you go through their rigorous assessment/matching process.
Ultimately Ursula and Rafael are matched and when they meet, sparks fly and electricity ignites between them. They share common sense of humor, desire to have fun, both in careers that utilize their unique talents and these all come together in a strong pairing as a couple. But they also bring with them their fears and concerns from previous relationships that they each wrestle with inside their own thoughts.
I won't describe more for fear of spoiling. Just know that this is well written and the two characters have such depth that you feel you know them, could bump into them on a NYC street and want to ask them out for a drink to be their friend. I sort of guessed at the ending the first time and was right but it didn't diminish the fun I had reading this book. Definitely good author and great book!
