I am so happy to have been gifted with this little tease: I received an ARC from NetGalley for only chapters 1-4 and I am already checking release dates so that I can preorder Part of Your World. Within the span of just 4 chapters, Abby Jiminez has already hooked me with the instant chemistry between posh city girl Alexis and small town lumberjack-looking “Mayor” of Wakan, Daniel. Stranded on the side of the road, Daniel comes to Alexis’ help and makes quick work of wreaking havoc on her eyes. Part of Your World will be a page turner for sure. I can’t wait to read the rest of this gem in April. Trust me, go preorder this now!

Such a tease to have just the start of this one!

I'm a big fan of Abby's Friend Zone series, so I was eager to see this new title - and I was not disappointed.

When her luxurious Mercedes gets stuck in a ditch in the middle of nowhere (damn raccoons!), Alexis can't believe her bad luck. But when a cute local comes to tow her out, things are looking up. And when she runs into him at the local dive, she agrees to leave with him, if only to help him win a bet with his friends.

On the surface they seem like complete opposites, but could they ever make this work?

"I woke up the next morning at six a.m., naked and happy after having the best date of my entire life. And then I realized she was gone."

Abby Jimenez has the ability to grip me from line one and by the time I'm done reading I realize it's 3 in the morning, I forgot to eat dinner and I have an important meeting n the morning I definitely won't be prepared for.

These first few chapters of Part of Your World have me DYING to read the rest of this book! I absolutely devoured The Friend Zone series in a matter of days, and I can tell this book will be my next binge read.

Already I'm invested in Alexis and Daniel. Alexis is a big city, sassy and intelligent woman like Vanessa Price and Kristen Petersen were. She clearly has just left a relationship that wasn't worthy of her time. Daniel is charming, small town and a gentleman. The opposites attract is real. How will they meet again? Where does their story go from here? What kinds of sacrifices will they have to make to be together? I don't know but I can't wait to find out!

Although it is only 4 chapter i am already hooked on this book. I have read all 3 books in the friend zone series by Abby Jimenez and absolutely loved them. When I first read the description I was immediately hooked. These 4 chapter provided a pretty good insight on what type of characters Alexis and Daniel are going to be. That cliffhanger at the end of chapter 4 really caught me off guard and had me swiping for my pages. Can’t wait to be to able to read the book in full when it releases!

This was such a fun preview! I love Abby Jimenez's endearing characters and fun, engaging writing. Can't wait to read the rest!

Wow! Abby Jimenez does it again with her newest book. I randomly stumbled upon her work only a few months ago, and I’m so glad I did. Her writing style is wonderful. Easy to read, descriptive, relatable and personable characters. I’m excited to share in the joy of this book with others!

I really have no idea how am I supposed to wait that long until I can finally read because this preview rather fueled my thirst.

This review is based on the 4 chapter preview.

Abby Jimenez writes the best opening scenes in her books that you want to keep reading uninterrrupted until the final page. Her humor is like no other and you know that you'll get some great belly laughs throughout.

These four chapters are a tasty tease of what Part of Your World will offer and early on we get a great quote between best friends:
"We've never been single together before, We should embrace this, Hot girl summer, It could be so fun."
"I think I'm more in the mood for Golden Girls summer . . ."
I love this!

I can't wait to find our how/if The Little Mermaid plays into this story and how Alexis and Daniel become a part of each other's world.

This was my third Abby Jimenez read and I was so glad to get my hands on it! My first opinion of Alexis, the main character who is stranded on the side of the road in need of a tow, is that she is a spoiled rich girl. This is based immediately on the first chapter. What drew me into this book right away was what I saw in Alexis once she ended up in the VFW as she stopped in town for the night. This was after Daniel, a handsome passerby, stopped to give her a tow. It wasn't her kind of place, but her interaction with the people and her witty banter with Daniel, the man who gave her the tow, showed that there was more to Alexis than what I originally saw. Towards the end of the preview, Daniel saves Alexis from a possibly uncomfortable yet funny interaction with his friends and offers her dinner. The chapter then ends on a cliffhanger. You are left wanting more. Two people who are clearly from different worlds. Alexis who appears to be from a fast-paced, appearances are everything, society world and Daniel, who is a huge part of his small hometown. What could possibly happen there?

Another great book by Jimenez. This preview really pulled you in. Looking forward to reading the rest of the book and seeing how the characters develop.

Wow, that last line...what a way to end on a deliciously addicting cliffhanger!

Also, I now really want a grilled cheese sandwich...

I read a preview of Part of Your World by Abby Jimenez, and let me tell you, it did NOT disappoint. Immediately I was hooked and sucked into this small-town world. Abby creates fantastic visuals to the point that I felt like I was actually there. I already like the characters, and the flirty banter between Alexis and Daniel made me smile.

I cannot wait to read the entire book when it comes out!

Thank you to NetGalley for this preview.

I absolutely love this author! This book started off so good and hooked me right from the start! I can’t wait to be able to read more!!!

Preview is not enough! I can’t wait to read this next Abby Jimenez novel. Her humor and pacing is incredible.

Really loved this preview of her next book. Can't wait to read the whole book. I am a big fan of her books as well as my daughter. In fact her name was listed in the back of her last book. So am anxious to read this one.

As with all of Abby Jimenez's books, I probably should have just taken a day off work because this one was difficult to put down. I've been thinking a lot about what it is that makes her writing in particular so engaging, and I think it's the way she writes people–women in particular. They're real, they have very relatable hangups, and at times they make you want to yell through your Kindle. They are also always lucky enough to find their perfect match in tit for tat banter that makes me LOL.

I loved Alexis and Daniel's journey. Also of note: the friends in this book were particularly fantastic, and I can only hope Abby writes a story for each and every one of them.

FYI: I received the ARC of this one from NetGalley and @ReadForeverPub in exchange for an honest review.

Another hit from Abby Jimenez. She delivers a sweet romance while touching on tougher topics of abusive relationships, class divide, and managing family expectations. Pick this up if you like an age gap romance, swoony male lead, adorable animal characters, and a touch of small town magic.

Oh my goodness, I can’t wait to read the rest of this book! The first four chapters completely sold me. Thanks for the preview!

It definitely has the potential to be something great. It took a little while to get invested, maybe because I didn't feel as though these characters were complex enough off the bat, but by the end of the four chapters i was definitely wishing I had more to read. Thank you Netgalley for this preview, i'll definitely be keeping an eye out for the rest of this book!

Part of Your World is one of my most anticipated reads for 2022! I read the preview and I'm already completely hooked. I can't way for more.

Abby Jimenez continues to write another amazing book with all the feels! A carpenter from a small town and a big city doctor meet-- will sparks fly and love happen? I was provided a preview by the publisher and I cannot wait to find out more!
