内容介绍

《纽约时报》畅销书《五年后》和《一个意大利夏天》的作者再次带来 “浪漫精品”（《纽约时报》畅销书作者劳拉-戴夫），

讲述了一位年轻女性最终决定为自己而活，而不是依靠宇宙寻找答案的故事。

达芙妮-贝尔相信宇宙对她自有安排。每次她遇到一个新男人，都会收到一张纸条，上面写着他的名字和一个数字--他们在一起的确切时间。

这些纸条告诉她，她将和马丁在巴黎共度三天；和诺亚在旧金山共度五周；和雨果--她的前男友变成了最好的朋友--共度三个月。

达芙妮收到这些编号文件已经有二十多年了，她总是在想什么时候会有一张没有过期的文件。

终于，在她最喜欢的洛杉矶餐厅相亲的那天晚上，只有一个名字：杰克。

但随着杰克和达芙妮的故事逐渐展开，达芙妮发现自己开始怀疑报纸上的预测，并开始思考 “承诺 ”和 “真实 ”的含义。

因为达芙妮知道一些杰克不知道的事情，如果被他发现，会让他伤心欲绝。

“达芙妮时而令人心碎、时而令人心动的对有意义的关系（无论是浪漫的还是柏拉图式的）的探索，

一定会激励”（《出版商周刊》，星级评论）丽贝卡-塞勒的新老书迷。

TheNew York Times bestselling author of In Five Years and One Italian Summer returns with “a romantic gem” (Laura Dave, New York Times bestselling author) about a young woman who decides to finally live for herself rather than rely on the universe for answers.

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. 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.
