I loved this fantastic book! It made me laugh. It made me cry. It made me swoon. Everything I want in a book!

Ohy have I not immediately binged all of the books Abby Jimenez writes? This is now the second of hers I've read and they've immediately soared to the top of the favourites lists. Especially considering some of my most trusted friends also tell me this, I still for whatever reason don't drop everything. This book has now changed that.

Part of Your World was absolute perfection. Is there a better book boyfriend out there other than Daniel? I doubt it. A lot of this book hit really close to home, so close that it felt like I could have written a lot of it myself (in much less eloquently, beautifully written words). I saw so much of my husband in Daniel, the raw and overwhelming love he has for Alexis and the heart of gold, do anything for his neighbours and loved ones attitude. I also saw a lot of myself in Alexis, trying to be strong and independant but knocked down by those closest to her. I loved the progression of her character in this book, how she learned to be her own person and stand up for herself. I absolutely adored how Jimenez handled different kinds of abuse in this book - without spoiling anything, I sincerely appreciated how she didn't discredit someone for enduring a different kind of abuse and made all forms equal.

One of my favourite reads of the year - you should probably go check it out.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for my copy of Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez. All opinions are my own!

This was a cute, fast-paced read. While a little unbelievable in parts, it still kept my attention and was a fun break from reality.

This was a great addition to the series and I really enjoy the emotional roller coaster that Abby Jimenez always takes me on!

Abby Jimenez can do no wrong. This book was another fantastic read. Each time I think her new book can't be beat and she proves that to not be the case.

This book was everything I want in a romance - high stakes, amazing chemistry, impossible odds, and the perfect HEA. Alexis and Daniel made such a wonderful couple, and I found myself rooting for them from the very beginning! Each character had an individual journey in addition to their romantic journey, which is something I always appreciate in a romance. Add in a truly adorable dog, and I'm sold! Definitely recommend!

Abby Jimenez is back in Part of Your World with her signature romance style. This novel starts out with a sweet meet cute, when the protagonist finds herself with a broken car, stuck two hours from her home in a small rural forest town. Of course the man who comes to save her resembles an attractive lumberjack, and the two of them instantly hit it off. The enter a loose long distance relationship agreement, but both people realize the truly do come from different worlds. Alexis is a very successful doctor in a long line of a famous doctor lineage, while Daniel is as carpentry maker and runs the bed and breakfast in his small town. While they struggle to overcome the differences in their backgrounds, what they do know is that when they are together, it is magical.

This novel has a lot of fairy tale references and winks to Disney, which I picked up on immediately while reading. There is a trigger warning in this novel for domestic violence in several different forms, and I always think Abby Jimenez has a knack for incorporating these heavier real life topics into her novel in a way that feels authentic to the story and really adds valuable awareness. I don't know that it is the most impactful romance I've ever read, but I enjoy her novels and will continue reading them for sure!

Abby Jimenez writes a great rom-com. She incorporates real-life issues which truly add to the story and make it seem less "fluff." In Part of Your World, Alexis comes from a family of doctors. But they aren't just doctors. They are mega-rich donors who have been involved in a hospital for 125 years as doctors and the expectation is that the family will continue the legacy. Alexis's twin brother has found a woman (shout out to previous books) and moved to Cambodia with her, so the pressure is on Alexis.

On her way home from a family funeral, she swerves to miss a raccoon and her car goes off the road. Daniel finds her and tows her out. The insta-love story begins (ack). Daniel is a great guy from a small town. He's 10 years younger than Alexis and his entire apartment would fit in Alexis's bedroom. They come from different worlds and, yet, they still fall in love.

Alexis is dealing with an ex-boyfriend who was emotionally abusive, but her friends and family want her to get back together with him. She's used to men telling her what to do and it's hard to break that cycle. I understand what the author is trying to get at here, but for me, it was a bit of a hard sell. Alexis is a strong woman who has no idea of her wealth (as evidenced by her friends). All of a sudden, she's a changed person? She thinks it's normal to be nearly 40 and not be able to know how to peel a potato or sweep a floor?

I love Daniel and the town of Wakan but I think that he just fell for Alexis and she was selfish. I understand the cycle of abuse is hard to break but I wish she would have connected with her brother more. The book read well and I liked it, but parts of it were frustrating.

Thank you to Forever Publishing for my #gifted copy of Part Of Your World.

I already knew this before, but this one just reiterated the point for me... Abby Jimenez can do no wrong! I will read ANYTHING she publishes without even know what it's about. No question.

Part of Your World will be in my top 10 of 2022. I just loved it sooo so much. It has that curveball humor and tenderness that take a book to another level for me. Alexis has this a-hole of an Ex that does not get that they are done with a capital D. And an even worse father that is pushing her back to him. She is such a strong woman and her growth in the story was just beautiful. And Daniel. Sheeewww. He is everything I want in a main character. He is hard working, humble. has his own problems but you'd never know it from looking in, he treats everyone in his life like gold, and especially when it comes to Alexis... he really aims to please if you catch my drift.

This one is for your if you love:
-age gap romances
-opposites attract
-baby goats!!
-clever humor that is guaranteed to make you bust out laughing AND tenderness that breaks your heart

This was the perfect summer read. I loved the complex relationship and family dynamics. I love the small town closeness and personalities that we meet. Daniel and Alexis are so well formed and their romance is so perfect. They’re sweet, funny and passionate. I love how they both learn from each other and grow and come together in the end. A lovely and sweet read with heart.

I all read all of Abby Jimenez’s books. Somehow, she knows how to totally pull you into a love story. This book has everything: small town charm, down-to-earth male lead, forbidden love, family values, loving animals, dragonflies… and Nadia cakes!

I loved the improbable duo and although it was a bit predictable, I read the story in a day! It was a great vacation day and I recommend as a beach read!

I will without a doubt continue reading Jimenez novels as she has a way to my heart!

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for granting me a complimentary e-arc in exchange for my honest opinion.

Thank you to NetGalley for the digital ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Abby Jimenez has managed to tug at my heartstrings...AGAIN! I laughed, I may have cried just a little, but during the entire read, I was rooting for Alexis and Daniel. This is a tale of social boundaries and how to overcome them if the person you love means just that much to you. Jimenez kept me on the edge of my seat throughout their entire journey!

Thank you to NetGalley, Forever publishing and Abby Jimenez for the free e-book in exchange for an honest review.

I find that I can never go wrong picking you whatever Jimenez writes and this didn’t disappoint. I loved the characters and I haven’t read many romance novels with the age gap like this and how it can affect perspectives but doesn’t have to affect your relationship. This one I could 100% see as a movie that I would go see asap.

This is a sweeping romance that makes you believe in fairy tale endings for even our modern heroes and heroines caught in life's toughest moments

The beginning was a little rough for me with everything feeling like it was moving from place to place to place. but this ended up being a cute read. Love an overcoming heroine almost as much as I love a puppy hero~

Abby Jimenez does it again! When I first read the description of the book, I wasn't sure I would like the main characters' age difference but Abby makes me appreciate that love doesn't always play by the rules. Alexis comes from a family of high expectations and is an over-achiever to the point of exhaustion. Daniel is just the right amount of calm, cool, and collected to be the perfect match if only Alexis could see it. It might take some serious persuasion and a little magical realism to help convince her. This book is another great by Abby Jimenez, who is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

I've gotten so lucky with reading some of my favorite all-time romance novels recently. This one quickly shot to my list of top five all-time favorites! I loved it so much, I cleared my calendar so that I could read it all in one sitting. I even ordered the physical copy after I finished my advance copy so that I could start reading it again and put little post-it flags in all my favorite parts!

Abby Jimenez is always a winner, but she knocked this one out of the park. I fell in love with every single character in this novel, and I couldn't stop turning the pages even though I didn't want it to end!

Abby Jimenez DOES NOT MISS. This one is just as good as her others - maybe even better! I loved every page of this and hated when I finished it.

Loved this book, the characters, and everything this author writes. This book made me happy and that is the best review there is.

Abby Jimemez does it again 👏👏
I absolutely loved this age gap romance. I found so much of it the perfect amount of charm and swoon. Alexis and Daniel came off the page and I didn't want it to end. The small town charm of Wakan including the little bit of magic were just icing on the cake. This could be my new favorite!
