On a road trip back to Minneapolis from a family funeral in Iowa, Alexis Montgomery is forced off the road by a raccoon in the middle of nowhere. Local carpenter, Daniel Grant comes to her rescue and never expects to see her again. But here she is, walking into the VFW looking for something to eat, and looking very obviously out of place in her designer clothes and sparkling jewels. To save her from his weaselly friends, he lets her in on their secret bet that one of them will hook up with her before the end of the night. Alexis is in on the joke and decides to let Daniel be the winner. They split the proceeds, plus she gets a grilled cheese sandwich at his place out of the deal. What she never expected was to have one of the hottest nights of her life.
Alexis is an emergency physician from a very wealthy family with an over one hundred-year-old medical legacy to carry on. Her father is the demanding sort, and nothing less than her mentally abusive, powerhouse surgeon, ex-boyfriend will ever be good enough to bring Alexis to the level her dad thinks she needs to be at. She knows her life is in Minneapolis and carrying on her family legacy at all costs, but the draw to see Daniel in his tiny hometown is too much to overcome. Separating her professional life from her personal life shouldn’t be difficult. Those two worlds, miles apart, could never collide, or could they?
Danial Grant is the mayor of his hometown, Wakan. He runs his family’s estate as a B & B, helps his friends and neighbors at the drop of a hat, and is a carpenter with dreams to make his living on his artistry. His life, and his families lives for generations before him, is and always will be Wakan. Nothing could ever pull him away, or could it?
PART OF YOUR WORLD is the next sure-to-be bestseller from Abby Jimenez. I laughed, I cringed, I cried a little, I laughed some more, and then sighed with contentment as I read the very last page. When I say there are some books everyone needs to read, just because, this is that book and she is that author. Abby Jimenez just has a way with words and characters and a dash of magic that instantly draws you in and renders you unable to do anything but devour the story unfolding.
PART OF YOUR WORLD needs to be on everyone’s To-Be-Read shelf. It’s more than a romance. This is a book about love, life, the choices we all make, and why we think we make the choices we do.
The New York Times bestselling author of Life's
Too Short delivers a refreshingly modern fairy tale perfect
for fans of Casey McQuiston and Emily Henry.
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?
