Yours Truly (Part of Your World, 2)

A novel of terrible first impressions, hilarious second chances, and the joy in finding your perfect match from "a true talent" (Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

Dr. Briana Ortiz's life is seriously flatlining. Her divorce is just about finalized, her brother's running out of time to find a kidney donor, and that promotion she wants? Oh, that's probably going to the new man-doctor who's already registering eighty-friggin'-seven on Briana's "pain in my ass" scale. But just when all systems are set to hate, Dr. Jacob Maddox completely flips the game . . . by sending Briana a letter.

And it's a really good letter. Like the kind that proves that Jacob isn't actually Satan. Worse, he might be this fantastically funny and subversively likeable guy who's terrible at first impressions. Because suddenly he and Bri are exchanging letters, sharing lunch dates in her "sob closet," and discussing the merits of freakishly tiny horses. But when Jacob decides to give Briana the best gift imaginable--a kidney for her brother--she wonders just how she can resist this quietly sexy new doctor . . . especially when he calls in a favor she can't refuse.

"Abby Jimenez's words...sprinkle humor and warmth all over my life." -Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis

Could not handle the hallmark movie book. Wanted to skim the whole thing after a few chapters.

This book is so sweet! I loved Bri, she is dynamic and real which makes it easy to understand her. I couldn't personally relate to her situation but I can see how easy it would be for people who have gone through similar scenarios to connect to her. Jacob is also relatable with his anxiety and frankly it was nice to see a male character have the thoughts and feelings he did. We normally associate the worries and insecurities he presented with females so to have Jacob's perspective was very refreshing. I also love a fake dating trope! We know that the love grows naturally in these scenarios but it’s my favorite to see that bond progress. I thought the letter correspondence was such a fun element to the love story. This book has a lot of tough topics which can be hard to talk about so What I loved most about this book is that they brought the best out of each other, understood one another and provided what each other needed most when they couldn't do it themselves. Life is hard and a partner is there to support, to show up, and love through it all. That is what Bri and Jacob are to each other and it's what makes them realistic and relatable as well as an example for us all. What they have is what we all deserve and it’s important to recognize, it's okay if we don't all get it right the first time around.

Slow burn lasted sooo long and the miscommunication drove me mad, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book as it touched on anxiety and traumatic experiences. Tied it all in very well and was a different outcome but still a good one. Definitely a good read.

I had this book sitting on my shelf for a while, so I decided to finally pick it up.

It was a cute story with a mostly predictable storyline, but, as with most romances, we knew where it was going. The story is in the journey, not the ending. There were a few spots that I didn't quite see happening ahead of time, and that was refreshing.

I would recommend this book.
