Part of Your World

By: Abby Jimenez

Narrated by: Julia Whelan, Zachary Webber

Opposites attract in this magical, delightful contemporary romance from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Say You'll Remember Me.

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?

Repeat listen

I have finished listening to this book for my 4th time.
I loved it as much this time as the first.
Abby is the best! Great stories. I bought this book for my BFF and she just finished. She could not stop talking about it.
Her daughter bought her the next book and now I’m gonna have to listen to that one again so she and I can talk about it while it’s fresh in my head.
Love every single Abby Jimenez book!

Thank You Abby.

Dear Abby,

Thank you for giving us much needed space and freedom to acknowledge the myriad ways abuse exists- from insidious to overt.

Thank you also for giving us all the warm feels wrapped up in unapologetic love, the kind that stands up against the world.

I have only ever immediately re"read" one book, this is my second. And I think the first to be read immediately for the 3rd time. There are so many simply stated complex truths expertly woven from beginning to end.

These words have become the artillery in my war to reclaim myself.

Forever in gratitude.

Part of your World

I have read all of Abby’s books(well listened to) and I have loved them all. But this one…this one made my heart ache, made me laugh, made me cry…I love that in a book. The best one yet!

So good!

This story was amazing. I hesitated to listen because I didn’t want anymore sadness in life. But, I’m glad I did. I love Julia Whelan’s work. Didn’t much care for the portions read by the male narrator, but the story was great and so was Julia.

Recognize the unknown unknown

Great daily deal for four dollars. You get to good narrators, of course Miss Whalen's male voice is really yummy as she deepen it from 2014 on. Do not miss Karen Robards guardian series, tops. This author has a message in this book, which if you recognize yourself, Then she has succeeded in writing a great book. If you love fairytale stories e.g. Cinderfella, enjoy. If you are doubting of yourself, take heart and push forward. This author writes with humor Eg kid in PJ’s and Kevin Bacon, so l will seek out her other reads when on sale as those narrators are not in my top favorite category.
