Ellie is the creator of Match Your DNA. A DNA test that tells you who your one and only match is. We follow Ellie, Nick, Mandy, Christopher, and Jade as they discover who their match is and the consequences that brings.

I am not good with names, so I was worried about keeping the characters straight, but John Marrs did a fantastic job! I had no trouble at all! Even switching between reading with my eyeballs and listening to the audiobook. I loved the quick, short chapters. I was invested in everyone's story, which made this book fly by. There were some parts of one character (a self labeled psychopath) that made me a bit squeamish.

John Marrs is a literary genius, and I am always hooked with every piece of his work that I consume.

The One takes you on a journey of people finding their “soulmates” through a scientific discovery and submitting their DNA to an online database where they are matched with The One. Some people get lucky and their one is nearby, but most of the characters we are introduced to have obstacles one way or another with their match. Real life relationships get broken up as the appeal of finding their soulmate pulls at them. Lives are uprooted, and the whole concept is fascinating.

The characters are astoundingly dynamic, and their stories really draw you in.

Everyone of John’s books are amazing! The concept of genetic matching is phenomenal, a serial killer? Ruined marriages? Romances? Yes please.

this was GOOD. it’s one of those books that feels impossible to put down! ancestryDNA but with your perfect match, what could go wrong?! this book kept me on edge. it’s soooo juicy. each chapter had a cliffhanger ending and had me gasping and waiting to uncover the tea. the ending is freaking wild. so so good

This book was SO good. I love John Marrs but I think his speculative fiction is where he really shines. This is the first of an interconnected world and it really sets the stage for everything else. It's not IMPERATIVE to read them in order but I did and I highly recommend it.

Easiest five stars ever. This has been one of my favorite thriller books for years. I think the premise is so unique and interesting. I have read a romance book before with a similar idea, but it's fascinating to see all the ways a DNA based matchmaking site can go wrong in a thriller! All of the storylines keep you hooked and guessing until the very end. I highly recommend this book!

This book was actually insane in the best way possible. This started out as a really interesting science based book about DNA and your perfect match, but then things escalated about the last 25% and wow I did not see the twist coming! Very fast paced read and very interesting! Will definitely read more by Marrs in the future.

This was a WILD RIDE. The hype surrounding this book is REAL. What if there was a DNA test designed to alert you to your perfect Match? Match Your DNA will tell you exactly who you are destined to be with. We follow five individuals:
• Mandy, a woman whose Match is involved in an accident before she has the chance to meet him;
• Christopher, a man who does not want his Match to uncover his questionable extracurricular activities;
• Jade, an Englishwoman whose Match is located in Australia, and she does not have the funds to travel to meet him;
• Nick, a newly engaged man whose fiancée wishes to take the test as reassurance that they are destined to be together; and
• Ellie, a corporate boss lady who does not have enough time in the day to worry about whether she will ever find her Match.

Full of twists and turns, The One is sure to have you up all night turning its pages. What would you do to find your Match?

The One was an entertaining and fast paced read with an interesting concept. Quite honestly it was a lot darker all around than I anticipated as well.

You follow multiple characters perspectives in alternating chapters and it would occasionally throw me off kilter switching between because it was just so jarring. These characters really went through it over and over again. I truly think the story benefits from having multiple story lines and characters to follow. It kept me interested and on my seat!

I love books that make you ponder and think and this was definitely one of them. It begs the question, how much should we allow technology and science to meddle with our lives or influence our decisions, our paths, our love lives? This was twisty and fun!
