Meet Patricia Ryan. An intelligent, beautiful, and elegant twenty-seven-year-old woman. She is a legal secretary for a highly successful Boston law firm, where life and the lawyers are crushing her hopes and dreams.
Patricia is single, with no boyfriend and little chance of meeting one as the five lawyers she reports to work her an average of sixty hours per week. Coupled with that is the fact that she is the sole support of her mother and grandmother, who live with her in a small apartment in a triple-decker in Boston.
She needs an escape to hope…now.
As a ten-year-old girl, Patricia helped her mom to get over her dad walking out on them by watching an Audrey Hepburn film. Ironically, since blossoming into a woman, Patricia was often told she bore an uncanny resemblance to Audrey Hepburn—a comparison that her insecurities and good manners had her instantly denying to all who mentioned it.
At the end of a particularly grueling work week, she meets Tom Harris, the new, very handsome, single, and very successful partner who has been assigned to her. Later that same day, she takes her best friend Maureen to an Audrey Hepburn film festival being held under the stars on Boston Common. By the end of the evening, Patricia has an epiphany, which allows her to see her only escape to hope. She instantly makes a "crazy" decision that will blast her out of her dream-crushing rut and lead her—and her best friend Maureen—on the romantic misadventure of a lifetime.
