I loved Jacob and Briana! There is something super special about watching a couple fall in love over written word. Give me all the letters, post-its, and cute texts. I loved the banter and this story. Jacob was such a swoony male lead and it was so empowering to see Briana take charge of her life. Really incredible story and loved connecting again with characters from previous books.

This is my second Abby Jimenez novel and now I want to read everything she has written. Her writing is funny and heart-warming! This was a great story and I enjoyed every part of it, I did read Part Of Your World first and while you don't need to read it first to enjoy Yours Truly, I'm glad I did! I highly recommend both books! I think fans of Sarah Adams and Emily Henry would love this book!

An enjoyable read, especially if you like slow-burn romances. I always enjoy a good fake dating story, this one in particular just took the MC's extra long to give into and act upon their true feelings.

Loveable and witty characters, just enough steam and lots of heart. Abby Jimenez is always an enjoyable read!

This is another great book from Abby. I love how all her book characters are connected in some way. This is another fun addition to this series.

Thank you NetGalley! Abby Jimenez is becoming one of my favourite authors! This book is so good! I laughed, I cried! She knows how to do a good banter! Simply fantastic!

LOVED IT!!!!!!!

Author Abby Jimenez has a way of creating genuine, relatable characters that you can't help but to root for. She is solid gold at writing witty banter, and keeps you want to turn each page to whip through to the ending, but then savor the ending because you don't want it to be over.

I am always so appreciative when Forever Pub provides me with an early release copy. Abby is one of those author's you stop everything for to devour her latest book.

I think I start my reviews for Abby’s books the same every time. I didn’t think I could love any book better than her last one, but Yours Truly was amazing. The perfect romance, very well built characters that I know I could be friends with. I recommend Abby’s books to everyone I know.

I absolutely loved this one. Abby Jimenez can do no wrong in my book. Her characters are full of depth, the story lines are interesting but not too busy. I love the idea of sending letters back and forth, it made for a really sweet and at times nice and spicy book. I can't wait to read whatever Jimenez comes out with next.

This is now my favorite Abby Jimenez book.

I love fake dating and I love enemies(ish) to friends to lovers so this book was PERFECT for me. Dr. Briana Ortiz is at a really low point in her life. She's in the process of finalizing her divorce because her husband cheated on her with a mutual friend. Her brother's kidney is failing and they're struggling to find a donor because he has a rare blood type. Oh, and the promotion she wanted could be given to the hot new doctor that she *definitely* doesn't like.

I haven't read a lot of books this year that I've really loved, but this one literally had me smiling, laughing, and even getting emotional. 10/10 recommend.

*Thanks to Forever (Grand Central Publishing), Abby Jimenez, and NetGalley for the ARC, in exchange for my honest review.*

I AM OBSESSED! Abby Jimenez is a constant five star read for me but this one might be 6 stars for me.

'Yours Truly' by Abby Jimenez takes the world of contemporary romance to a whole new level. This book is a rollercoaster of emotions that left me completely enamored, even if I had some reservations about one particular plot twist.

At the heart of this novel is Bri, a protagonist who is an absolute force to be reckoned with. She's strong, complex, and refreshingly real. Bri's journey is one of self-discovery and growth, and her resilience in the face of life's challenges is nothing short of inspiring. Her character is so beautifully layered, and it's impossible not to root for her from the very beginning.

Abby Jimenez's writing is modern, witty, and incredibly relatable. The banter and chemistry between the characters are electric, and the dialogues are so well-crafted that they feel like conversations you might have with your own friends. The humor is spot-on, and the emotional moments are delivered with such raw authenticity that they tug at your heartstrings.

The story is filled with genuine, heartfelt moments that explore the complexities of relationships and the importance of communication. It's not just a romance; it's a story about love in all its forms—self-love, friendship, and the bonds we form with family.

Now, about that one plot point I wasn't a fan of—the accidental pregnancy. While it's a common trope in romance novels, it felt a bit too convenient in this story. However, I appreciate how Abby Jimenez handled it with sensitivity and made it an integral part of the characters' growth.

In conclusion, 'Yours Truly' is a 5-star gem that shines brightly in the world of contemporary romance. The strength and depth of Bri's character alone make this book worth reading. While the accidental pregnancy element might not be everyone's cup of tea, it's handled well within the context of the story. If you're looking for a heartfelt, funny, and emotionally charged romance with a strong and complex protagonist, this book is a must-read. Abby Jimenez has once again delivered a story that will stay with you long after you've turned the last page.

Abby Jimenez has swiftly ascended to the ranks of my favourite authors. Her talent for breathing life into her characters, making them incredibly relatable, is nothing short of remarkable. This book deserves all the stars, and I have numerous reasons to shower it with praise. I strongly urge you not to miss her author’s note at the end; it beautifully rounds out the book and provides invaluable insights into its masterful construction.

I may have stumbled upon my new beloved couple in Briana and Jacob, who redefine love and dating with their unique journey. It all begins with Jacob’s heartfelt letter to Briana, a gesture every woman secretly desires from her partner. Their dynamic is nothing short of fantastic, and Briana’s empathetic approach to Jacob’s anxiety is truly commendable. Jimenez fearlessly tackles challenging subjects in this narrative, handling them with the utmost finesse.

My only tiny grouse and pet peeve in the book is the miscommunication. However, in this story, it somehow fits seamlessly and doesn’t detract from the overall beauty and humour that permeate the rest of the tale.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for sending a digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

The way I sobbed and laughed reading this is ridiculous. The letter writing, fake dating, anxiety rep.. it was all perfection. A definite must read! Abby Jimenez has done it again, and has become one of my favorite authors.

Abby Jimenez’s books keep getting better and better each time! I’ve read and loved all her books and this one was no different. I truly loved Briana and Jacob’s story.

Abby did an amazing job writing both Briana’s and Jacob’s struggles with their issues. I could feel their feelings from the pages. Briana was so hurt from her previous marriage and Jacob’s anxiety was so real!

I loved how easily they fit each other. I loved how Brianna spoke Jacob’s language and wanted to protect him and helped him with his anxiety in such a natural way! And I also loved how Jacob made Brianna feel safe and earned her trust after everything she’s been through. It was just the most heart warming thing to see the things Jacob did just to make her smile and happy. Their fake dating turning into real was so smooth and the side characters were just perfect. Everyone and everything in the book had a role and it played out so naturally.

I love Abby’s books, this one is definitely one of my favorites now! Briana and Jacob is one of the book couples that you just root for and want them to have their happy ending.

It was such a sweet, heartwarming story with so much depth as it is always the case with Abby’s books. She knows how to make you adore the characters and the story.

And in true Abby Jimenez fashion, it made me smile so many times. Their catch phrases were so fun, the letters they wrote to each other were the sweetest thing ever, and of course there was a pet involved in the story.

Abby Jimenez is for sure an auto author for me at this point, I can’t recommend her books enough!!

Make sure to read author’s note at the end, it made the book even more special!

I mean. Proof is in the pudding, this book is trendy and for good reason! Perfect. Well rounded story that’ll make you fall in love with the characters and Abby

This book opened my eyes to a new auto-buy author. I LOVED IT. I have since read every book that Abby Jimenez has written. I cannot express the impact her books have had on me. I’m not the hugest romance fan- I like it, but it’s not my favorite genre. But it would be if they were all like this.

This was my first Abby Jimenez book and definitely won't be my last! I loved her characterization and plotlines.

This is very heartwarming! I have adored all the books I've read by Jimenez so far, and this is no exception.

Fake dating is, in my opinion, present in several romance books these days, and to dive into another book that contains one makes you wonder if it has anything new to offer under that trope. Honestly, this one doesn't. But! This one features characters that readers will definitely fall for.

I love that Yours Truly has a female lead that excels in her chosen career and knows her worth. Briana's life isn't perfect, but she lives with hope for things to get better. And the love interest? Jacob is no doubt one of the softest male MCs ever written. I love how grounded he is. He's got social anxiety and routines that help him cope with certain situations. As someone with the same mental health issues, I find him to be true and extremely relatable. Jimenez handled both his and Briana's traumas well, and that is something I wish more romance books do. Give me substance and I'll take it any day.

Also, don't get me started on the letter exchanges. Because those moments in the book are wholesome and funny as hell, I'll gladly read them all over again if only Briana and Jacob were my letter senders. Other things that tick the box: chaotic family dynamic (but one that works), a cat and a dog for pets—there's even a parrot!, and the most supportive group of friends.

YOUR TRULY is officially my favorite book from Abby Jimenez! This author has perfected the delicate balance between exploring hard-hitting topics and steamy, chemistry-charged romance. A must-read!
