Ally Condie's series

Full disclosure: This is going to be a 3 book series and only the first 2 are out right now. The third one comes out in November.

Matched
Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate... until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black.

The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

Crossed
In search of a future that may not exist and faced with the decision of who to share it with, Cassia journeys to the Outer Provinces in pursuit of Ky — taken by the Society to his certain death — only to find that he has escaped, leaving a series of clues in his wake.

Cassia’s quest leads her to question much of what she holds dear, even as she finds glimmers of a different life across the border. But as Cassia nears resolve and certainty about her future with Ky, an invitation for rebellion, an unexpected betrayal, and a surprise visit from Xander — who may hold the key to the uprising and, still, to Cassia’s heart — change the game once again. Nothing is as expected on the edge of Society, where crosses and double crosses make the path more twisted than ever.

I listened to the first book "Matched" on my recent trip down to see Emma's cute new baby. The book lasted me down and back so around 12 hours or so. I enjoyed the story. I probably wouldn't say the writing is amazing or stellar or anything like that, but it is a good story and very entertaining. It actually made the drive pleasant. The author, Ally Condie,  is a Utah girl, so if you read the series, you get the added benefit of feeling like you are supporting local authors/artists :)

I think if you liked the Hunger Games series than you'd probably like this series, too. I especially think Emma might like this one.
