Seconds: The Shared Soul Chronicles Brindi Quinn

"The scarlet tattoo marked him as one who had never been born. It marked him as a Second."

In a steam-filled city, Seconds run rampant. Split-personalities manifested in human form, these beings possess thoughts, feelings, and bodies of their own.

... But do they deserve to live? One scrap princess is about to find out.

Tide is no ordinary girl. She zones out, yields freakishly good climbing skills, and claims to have a serpentine demon after her-not to mention she's the next leader of the mechanized world. When Tide meets a fanboy named Rye, she thinks she's found her match. He's cute. He's quirky. But there's a problem: Rye is a Second. Can Tide find a way to make Rye whole before his existence kills?

It will take more than just love and luck on this journey to discover the secrets of the soul.

Newly revised with an updated ending!
