Part of Your World (Part of Your World #1) by Abby Jimenez
After a wild bet, gourmet grilled-cheese sandwich, and cuddle with a baby goat, Alexis Montgomery has had her world turned upside down. The cause: Daniel Grant, a ridiculously hot carpenter who’s ten years younger than her and as casual as they come—the complete opposite of sophisticated city-girl Alexis. And yet their chemistry is undeniable.
While her ultra-wealthy parents want her to carry on the family legacy of world-renowned surgeons, Alexis doesn’t need glory or fame. She’s fine with being a “mere” ER doctor. And every minute she spends with Daniel and the tight-knit town where he lives, she’s discovering just what’s really important. Yet letting their relationship become anything more than a short-term fling would mean turning her back on her family and giving up the opportunity to help thousands of people.
Bringing Daniel into her world is impossible, and yet she can’t just give up the joy she’s found with him either. With so many differences between them, how can Alexis possibly choose between her world and his?
4 out of 5 stars
Part of Your World was an entertaining story filled
with a lot of emotion. I felt like I was on a roller coaster between fun and
heartbreak as Alexis and Daniel found their way to happy. This was definitely
a story that made me feel and made for a truly great read.
Alexis and Daniel were wonderful characters. They had a lot
of cute, entertaining scenes together with fun dialogue and I thought there was
a good flow. Alexis is one of those characters that grew on me over the course
of the story. I liked her but didn't necessarily love her or her choices when
it came to Daniel. The more I learned about her, the more I felt for her and
understood her motivations, and by the end, I was rooting for her. Now Daniel,
there was nothing about this man I did not love right from the start. He was
sweet and caring and had such a generous heart. I loved his patience and
understanding with Alexis and at times my heart hurt for him. I basically laughed
and cried my way through this. Between characters I didn't like and some of Alexis’s
choices, my emotions were all over the place. I loved the little epiphanies Alexis
had along the way, it all built into a really heartfelt and beautiful ending.
There's a well-rounded cast of characters, some fantastic
and some not so much. I loved Alexis's best friend Bri and I liked all of
Daniel’s friends and the townsfolk and the bonds they had. There were a few small
side stories involved and the situations with them felt easily resolved and
glossed over. There were nice descriptive details pulling me in the entire time
though the beginning did feel slightly rushed. There were several hard subjects
touched upon and I thought they were handled well. Thank goodness for the comic
relief in the form of animals because it was very much needed with the
heaviness involved. There is an age difference between Alexis and Daniel and it was touched upon but overall, I thought it was a small part of the story.
Bottom line, this story made me feel. I loved how it broke
me down a bit and then built me back up. This was excellent storytelling with
good humor, a lot of emotion, and intriguing characters. A great addition to
the series!
