Do you believe that love is pre-ordained? Does some unseen destiny govern the fates of your red strings? Or do you instead suppose that love is grown with effort and time? Well, what if, instead, love was one phone call and appointment away?  Such promises were what led sixteen-year-old romantic, Bridger Blaithe to the doors of a peculiar company: aiAI Industries. Specialized in the creation and maintenance of romantic relationships, aiAI promises you the love of your dreams at no great cost or hassle! Such was the case when Bridger was matched with Amanda Adler, the person whom he would spend eight blissful years of his life with. However, as time passed, sparks turned to mere embers, and the love that once felt so close became distant. Ending in a divorce, the two set off on different paths with mutual heartache but no ill-will. As a strong, steadfast individual, the story begins with Bridger in a depressive state, questioning the authenticity of his love and blaming aiAI. That is when a knock on his door is heard, an opportunity presenting itself from the very same company that gave him a chance all those years ago.
