The novel Matched is about a teenage girl named Cassia going against the Society to try to be with someone she truly loves. When Cassia went to her Match Banquet, she was matched with her best friend Xander. Their match was considered very rare since they lived in the same province and already knew each other very well. When she got home, she looked at Xander's card to see if there was any information on it that she didn't already know. When she put the card in, Xander's face popped onto the screen then disappeared suddenly. The screen went black until another face popped onto the screen. It was Ky Markham. Seeing Ky's face on the screen made her very curious. Even though her official told her there was nothing to worry about, she kept thinking maybe Ky was supposed to be her match, not Xander. Cassia and Ky both decided they were going to do hiking over the summer, and every day they were hiking together, Cassia would fall deeper in love with Ky. When Ky was taken away at the end of the novel, Cassia was willing to do anything to find him.
