In Being Audrey Hepburn, Clarissa Explains It All-creator, Mitchell Kriegman, tells the story of a 19-year-old girl from Jersey who finds herself thrust into the world of socialites after being seen in Audrey Hepburn’s dress from the film Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Lisbeth comes from a broken home in the land of tube tops, heavy eyeliner, frosted lip-gloss, juiceheads, hoop earrings and “the shore.” She has a circle of friends who have dedicated their teenage lives to relieve the world of all its alcohol one drink at a time. Obsessed with everything Audrey Hepburn, Lisbeth is transformed when she secretly tries on Audrey’s iconic Givenchy. She becomes who she wants to be by pretending to be somebody she’s not and living among the young and privileged Manhattan elite. Soon she’s faced with choices that she would never imagine making – between who she’s become and who she once was. In the tradition of The Nanny Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada, this is a coming of age story that all begins with that little black dress… *** Check back every Friday for an extended excerpt of BEING AUDREY HEPBURN, here on Wattpad!

"You already are the person I want you to be. I see so much more in you that you won't allow yourself to see." Lainey is on her way to her first and probably only Olympics. At twenty-two, she has finally made the U.S. Figure Skating Team after years of hard work and sacrifice. All she can think about is winning gold when she meets Cory, a gorgeous, hotshot Alpine skier and two-time Olympic champion who seems to be taking his talent for granted. His bad behavior is getting him in trouble with everyone around him, including Lainey. No love is lost between Lainey and Cory until the night Cory comes to Lainey's rescue. She soon realizes that his reckless behavior may be related to something painful from his past and that she actually needs to rescue him before he self-destructs. Can Lainey help Cory battle his demons so he can rebuild his future as an elite skier and, in turn, can Cory help Lainey execute a gold medal-winning performance? And will their support to each other lead them down a path to long-lasting love? Cover Photos by Rod Long & Kea Mowat on Unsplash
