Carl My family believes they're gifted by gypsies to find their soulmate, but I always thought it was bullshit. I don't think it's a gift. I believe we're cursed. I'm forty five and still haven't found my mate, and my nephews use me as an example to prove my theory that we're cursed. After watching my brothers and two of my nephews find their soulmates, I've given up hope. Now I'm known as the cranky reclusive uncle. I don't care what my family thinks as long as they leave me in peace. Not only am I from one of the most powerful family's, the Silverman's, I'm one of the best doctors in Australia. I devote my days to bettering my skills and don't care how others see me. Everything changes though when I find out the curse is in fact real, and meet my soulmate Annabelle. There's a problem though, she doesn't seem very impressed by me. Annabelle My life changed in a moment when Carl Silverman, pompous know-it-all, kidnapped me from the hospital where I was visiting my mother. He's convinced I - quiet, plain, little old librarian - am his soulmate. I feel a strange pull towards him and I can't deny our attraction, but I don't know if I'm ready for a relationship with someone like Carl.
