Reasons to Read This Book: People who rely on their looks often worry about aging and fading. As they grow older, they fear being "replaced." But Hepburn was different.

She was called a "fallen angel" and a "walking dream." She was seen as a "princess," but no true princess was as noble and elegant as she. Her beauty was not feigned or dressed up. It was unadorned.

Six-year-old Audrey Hepburn experienced her parents' divorce, and during World War II, her loved ones were killed. Her dream of becoming a dancer was shattered. Her first love ended with tears. Her first marriage lasted fifteen years before ending; her second marriage collapsed due to her husband's infidelity and scandals. She was filled with fear but couldn't find a "safe haven"; she felt helpless but couldn't find a helping hand; she suffered but was constantly hurt; her spiritual and physical wounds remained unhealed.
