Every time she meets a new man, she receives a slip of paper with his name and a number on it—the exact amount of time they will be together. The papers told her she&’d spend three days with Martin in Paris; five weeks with Noah in San Francisco; and three months with Hugo, her ex-boyfriend turned best friend. Daphne has been receiving the numbered papers for over twenty years, always wondering when there might be one without an expiration. Finally, the night of a blind date at her favorite Los Angeles restaurant, there&’s only a name: Jake. But as Jake and Daphne&’s story unfolds, Daphne finds herself doubting the paper&’s prediction, and wrestling with what it means to be both committed and truthful. Because Daphne knows things Jake doesn&’t, information that—if he found out—would break his heart. &“Daphne&’s sometimes heart-wrenching, often heartwarming search for meaningful relationships, both romantic and platonic, is sure to inspire&” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) new and longtime fans of Rebecca Serle.
