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 -
