Four chapters was all I needed to immediately drop all else I was reading and go pick-up this book! And then proceed to read it in a day! Time and time again I kept thinking how lucky we are to read and care about characters and love like Alexis and Daniel! What an incredible book that beautifully balances life, love, family, career, and heavier realities such as domestic abuse.

Read this if you like the movie Safe Haven, a good cry to a Taylor Swift song, and modern day pop-culture dynasties!

As with the rest of Jimenez’s book, I was hooked from the first page. So of course I had to buy it and read the rest of it.
Thank you for the preview.

While I really enjoyed this book by Abby Jimenez, I don't think it quite measures up to her previous books. I felt the heroine's internal conflict was hard to relate to and felt a little contrived. The hero, while amazing, was a little too perfect at times. Regardless, I would recommend this story and look forward to her next book!

Thank you to NetGalley for access to this preview. I'm a fan of Abby Jimenez's work so this was a fun beginning to see where this eventual HEA goes!

Small town MMC in a flannel? Saves the city girl in her designer dress who's stuck in a ditch from the first chapter? It's a Lifetime holiday movie waiting to happen!

Please note this reaction is based on the first four chapters only. Because of this, I will not be able to post a proper review on my goodreads.

This is a review of the preview ie. the first four chapters.

I loved Abby Jimenez's Life's Too Short so I was super excited for this book.

From these first few chapters, consider me enticed.

I will absolutely be reading this book once it is released.

Abby Jimenez is a hit or miss author for me, but this is usually due to the endings. The stories themselves are immensely readable, and Part of Your World has a very strong start. It veers a bit towards instalove at the beginning, but the characters are so charming that it's easy to overlook this.

Easily my favorite read of 2022! Could not put it down. I’ve bought this book for Everyone I know that reads. It’s just a feel good not too cheesy fun fun read!

I loved Abby Jimenez’s Friend Zone duet so it was a no-brainer I wanted to read more of hers..however, I did not enjoy this as much as I had hoped for. This book felt a little forced and unnatural at some parts. I feel like it was a romance book written by a robot who watched too many romance movies. I feel like the MC had little to no chemistry, as I said, it felt a little forced.

I absolutely loved this! It was one of my favorite romances of 2022. I really enjoyed the small town vibes, humor, and characters. Looking forward to reading Abby Jimenez's next book!

Abby Jimenez knows how to write a romantic comedy and they keep getting better. Part of Your World was my favorite of hers so far! Her books hit the right balance of steam, character development and plot. The love interests had great chemistry and witty banter. And while I enjoyed them and their character arcs individually, I loved them together even more. Plus any book that references my favorite book turned movie - The Princess Bride - is a winner for me.

It reminded me a lot of Mad About You by Mhairi McFarlane but with more romance.

I absolutely loved this snippet so much that of course I wound up reading the entire book. Their banter?! LIVED FOR IT. Abby Jimenez did a fantastic job with Alexis and Daniel and making sure they captured my heart from the very beginning. She's a new author for me, but her writing and this story have made me a lifelong fan!

Where do I even begin?! Abby Jimenez did it again! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry your eyes out and you’ll fall in love. All I have to say is…baby goat in pajamas!

Abby Jimenez is an auto buy author for me and I pre-ordered the physical copy of this book as soon as it was available. Before it came in I saw that a preview was available as a read now option on netgalley and automatically downloaded it. I'm already hooked on Daniel and Alexis' story and love that the preview has already made me laugh out loud a few times. Now I'm going to go read the rest of the book.

AHHH thank you NetGalley for the sampler/preview that allowed me to get addicted to this book that starts off in the most amazing way and will be making me buy it immediately so I can find out what happens next 😂😂.

The sampler included the first four chapters, and I’ve completely fallen for Alexis and Daniel and the premise and I’m so intrigued to see what is going to happen next! Also Alexis is my daughters name so this adds a special soft spot for me.

This is my first book by Abby Jimenez and I CANT wait to finish reading the rest of the book!! Feels like it’s going to be a 4.5-5 stars if it keeps going this way.

An absolutely wonderful beginning to a book I ended up reading and loving. The chemistry between Daniel and Alexis is immediately there, and I was hooked and couldn't wait to see where their story went. (Disclaimer: I'm leaving this feedback after I read the whole book, so I know I absolutely loved this one!)

My first Abby Jimenez book and I cannot wait to read the rest of her books!

Daniel is a dream like almost too good to be true. I like Alexis and can't wait for this story to unfold! I love the banter already and can just see how quickly this will escalate...also already love the small town vibes.

Thank you Forever (Grand Central Publishing) and NetGalley for this preview! I wish I had access to the entire book and flew through the first few chapters of this book. Abby Jimenez does a fantastic job of setting us up for a great story filled with comedy, romance, and spunk. I can’t wait to read the rest of it!

"I should've bought the SUV instead of the sedan." Right off the bat this book made me giggle because I know EXACTLY how this feels when driving through Arizona's monsoon season in a sedan. Even though this book is just a preview, I've already fallen in love with Alexis and Daniel, both as individuals and as a couple. I just know Part of Your World is going to give me some great laughs, swoon-worthy moments, and overall a good time. I 100% need to get my hands on this book ASAP.

4 stars.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
An automatic read for me mainly because it is Abby Jimenez and I can highly recommend this author for her talented writing skills alone.

This was an Age Gap romance with a really sweet guy (younger ) and an older woman who is smart and kind but for her whole life she has been managed and manipulated by her wealthy family and more recently by her ex fiance. Her life decisions are not solely hers to make much to her dismay.

Daniel and Alexis come from very different backgrounds and live different lives, they also live more than two hours apart but right from the start (when he rescues her one night..pulling her car out of a ditch) they have this really strong connection and attraction...that keeps drawing them together.

A sweet romance and one that I may have to reread in the future.
