Dannie Kohan lives her life by the numbers. She is nothing like her lifelong best friend - the wild, whimsical, believes-in-fate Bella. Her meticulous planning seems to have paid off after she nails the most important job interview of her career and accepts her boyfriend’s marriage proposal in one fell swoop, falling asleep completely content. But when she awakens, she’s suddenly in a different apartment, with a different ring on her finger, and beside a very different man.

Daphne Bell believes the universe has a plan for her. 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.

Von der SPIEGEL-Bestsellerautorin von In fünf Jahren kommt die Liebesgeschichte, die eine ganze Generation prägen wird. Daphne Bell glaubt, dass das Universum einen Plan für sie hat. Jedes Mal, wenn sie einen neuen Mann kennenlernt, erhält sie einen Zettel mit seinem Namen und einer Zahl darauf – die Zeit, die sie zusammen sein werden. Die Zettel sagen ihr, dass sie drei Tage mit Martin in Paris verbringen wird, fünf Wochen mit Noah in San Francisco und drei Monate mit Hugo, ihrem Ex-Freund, der jetzt ihr bester Freund ist.

Unos días más tarde, Bella, su mejor amiga, le presenta a su nuevo novio, que resulta ser nada más y nada menos que Aaron.

Caggie never wanted to be a hero, but some things are decided for us. Growing up among Manhattan’s social elite, Caggie always had everything a girl could want, including a storied last name. But after saving a girl from the brink of suicide, Caggie becomes infamous, and now all she wants is to be left alone.

Jessica thought her Pineville, New Jersey, life was behind her. Now a young professional, she’s ready to keep moving forward - until she (literally) runs into her former boyfriend Marcus Flutie at the airport on her way to her best friend’s Caribbean wedding. Marcus and Jessica have both changed dramatically, yet their connection feels as familiar as ever. Is their reunion just a fluke? Or is this momentous collision orchestrated by fate?

Jessica Darling is living the New York City dream. She’s subletting an apartment with her best friend, working for a magazine that cares about her psychology degree, and still deeply in love with Marcus Flutie. But then Marcus proposes and wants Jessica’s answer in a week. Is she ready to give up her NYC life of literary parties, art openings, and karaoke downtown to move back to New Jersey? Even if it’s to be with the boy (now man) she’s been in love with for years?

Life finally seems to be going right for Jessica Darling. She escaped the New Jersey suburbs and attends Columbia University in New York City. She’s more into her boyfriend, Marcus Flutie, than ever - even if he’s at a college across the country in California. And she’s making new friends who can’t quite compete with her beloved bestie, Hope, but at least come close. If Jessica thought high school was hard, college brings a whole new set of challenges.

Jessica Darling is in her senior year of high school, and things can’t seem to get worse: Her best friend, Hope, still lives in another state, and the mysterious and oh-so-compelling Marcus Flutie continues to be a distraction she doesn’t need. Not to mention her parents won’t get off her back about choosing a college, and her older sister’s pregnancy is causing quite a bit of drama in the Darling household.

When Sabrina arrives at her 30th birthday dinner she finds at the table not just her best friend, but also three significant people from her past, and well, Audrey Hepburn. As the dinner table conversation begins, it becomes clear that there’s a reason these six people have been gathered together.
