Sloane Washington

Sloane, a character in the Perfect Match series, is Hayden's roommate. In Chapter 9, she is revealed to be Hayden's Handler. She is also a love interest. She is first seen in Book 1, Chapter 3.

Appearance
Sloane has brown hair styled in a hairdo, brown eyes, and dark skin. She wears a pair of glasses, a blue long-sleeved sweater with a plaid skirt, and a gold necklace.

Personality
Sloane is an introvert and has a visibly hard time being in social situations like Nadia and Steve's housewarming party. When spoken to, she often gets flustered by sudden conversations, and tends to speak in verbose or use complex jargon. However, she reverts back to being calm immediately and does not allow her social awkwardness deter her from mingling with other people.

She, unlike most Handlers, is good-hearted and sympathetic, as she chose not to view Hayden as a manmade disposable creation, but rather as a human being, installing sentience into her software and not reprogramming her when she had the chance to following Hayden's temporary incapacitation.

Hayden Young
Hayden is Sloane's roommate. She is very protective of Hayden. She cares for him/her like a big sister would. She is scared when Hayden got into a car accident and thanks you for looking out for him/her. She is revealed to be Hayden's Handler in Book 1, Chapter 9.

Dipper
If picked to be an animal lover, Hayden will own a dog called Dipper that first appears in Book 1, Chapter 4. In Chapter 10, Sloane reveals that Hayden genuinely loves his/her dog very much, and that seeing them together has made Dipper grow on her as well, even if she's more of a cat person.

Eros
They recruited her out of an AI programming course in college. Sloane is shown to disagree with Eros' treatment of matches as purely machines and sees them as people.

Your Character
She is one of your potential love interests. Hayden introduced you to Sloane in Book 1, Chapter 3. She wants to become friends with you; however, it is hard for her to make friends due to her shy nature. You can choose to go to the planetarium with her and stregthen your relationship with her. She helps you escape Eros and try to uncover their secrets. She confesses her feelings to you in Book 1, Chapter 13.

Khaan Mousavi
Khaan and Sloane were co-workers at Eros. In Book 2, Chapter 6, Sloane tries to impress him. If your character isn't dating her, your character will imply several times that Sloane may have a crush (without finishing the word) on him or that he may be her idol. Sloane will state that her mother used to tease her about him as well. If Your Character is dating neither Khaan nor Sloane, Your Character and Hayden will overhear at the Gala how she confesses her feelings to Khaan in Chapter 14.
