'Rebecca Serle is a maestro of love in all its forms' – GABRIELLE ZEVIN 'Everything you could wish for in a love story' – HOLLY MILLER

Daphne has never left her love life to chance. The truth is, she can't... Every time she meets a man, a note will arrive. On it, a name and a date. An expiration date.

Without fail, Daphne has always known when her next relationship will end. So when a note arrives with only a name on it: Jake, she is sure this is it. Finally, her own happy ever after.

But is it...? Because Daphne has another secret, and this one has the power to break Jake's heart.

Will their love story have an expiration date, or is fate on Daphne's side at last?
