Reviews of the Part of Your World Books
Part of Your World (Book 1)
Part of Your World trigger warnings
Domestic abuse, toxic relationship, infidelity, toxic parents
Plot: Part of Your World is one of the best books for Gilmore Girls fans because it has small-town charm and a couple from two different worlds.
When Alexis Montgomery, who’s from a well-to-do family with high expectations, meets Daniel Grant, a small-town family business owner, sparks fly.
But, she is reeling from an abusive relationship, and she fears truly allowing him to be “part of her world.”
My Review: What’s unique about this book is the humor and grace with which the story is told, leaving readers’ hearts warmed. It’s an utterly loveable romantic comedy, reminiscent of late 90s/early 00s movies. There’s also a decent amount of spice.
Yours Truly (Book 2)
Yours Truly trigger warnings
Anxiety, panic attacks, renal disease, infertility, infidelity, organ donation
Plot: In Yours Truly, ER doctor Briana is recently divorced after suffering a miscarriage and worried about her sick brother. She meets the new doctor who has unaffectionately been nicknamed “Dr. Death.”
But, when she gets a sweet letter from Dr. Death, otherwise known as Jacob, she writes back. As they continue to correspond, she learns he’s a donor match for the transplant her brother needs.
She’s so grateful that she agrees to “fake date” him at a family wedding. This is when things heat up between them.
My Review: Read this one if you like a satisfying slow burn with only mild spice. It also represents social anxiety very well and is great for letter-writing fans in novels.
Reading Tip: Don’t skip the author’s emotional note at the end.
Just for the Summer (Book 3)
Just For the Summer trigger warnings
Toxic parent
Plot: In Just For the Summer, Justin feels cursed. Every woman he dates finds her soulmate just after breaking up with him. Emma is similarly “cursed.” Together, they plan to date each other and break up, so they can live happily ever after with someone else.
Emma and Justin connect deeper than expected over their “mommy” issues. They just may be the perfect pair. But, the chaos left by Emma’s mom seems be too complicated to make the plan work.
My Review: This summer romance novel features my favorite couple in Abby Jimenez’s books. They are quirky, loveable, have great chemistry, and support each other through difficult life issues. There is also one spicy scene for steamy romance lovers!
It’s great for those who like a little bit of realistic drama in their escape reads. It’s one quick and very enjoyable summer-themed read.

The Situationship (Bonus Short Story)
From the publisher:
Travel nurse Maddy doesn’t have time for a relationship, not even with the ruggedly handsome farmer who she feels a spark of attraction to.
Doug is a walking green flag. After a run in with Maddy thanks to the Wakan town mascot, Kevin Bacon the pig, he can’t help but feel the spark too.
Even though she doesn’t plan on staying in Minnesota forever, Maddy believes she and Doug can still have a fling… or maybe they’ll just find themselves in a situationship.
