Who would you want to be at your 30th birthday party on one night from your past or even the present, living or dead?

This is the book that brings five people together, past and present, together. Taking place in a restaurant in New York from 8:00 p.m. to midnight, with Sabrina, the birthday girl, her best friend Jessica, who surprised her with Sabrina's late father, who left when she was a baby, and she really never knew him, her college professor, her on and off boyfriend Tobias, who she knew for 10 years and the biggest surprise of all, Audrey Hepburn, her idol from her many movies and who she was named after obviously.

What I did find strange, more than coincidental, is that Sabrina and Tobias met four years later on a subway in New York, after initially meeting in California, when she "tracked" him down after seeing him and wanting to know who he was and instantly fell in love with him on sight.

The book alternated between the present at the dinner and the past with Sabrina and Tobias' relationship. The conversation was never boring but for me it got a little monotonous after a while for me.

Still a 3 star book in my opinion.
