pickThis is the first book I‘ve read by this author and it‘s good. It drags on a tad too much with the I-Can‘t-Trust-a-Man-Again nonsense, but eventually resolves well. I‘d read another one by Jimenez.

pickWhat a great night!
Finished this fantastic book AND the LA Kings win in overtime!!
This is my first Abby Jimenez, and I'm officially a member of her fan club now.
Smart, funny, sexy - everything you want in a romance ❤️
pickI loved this book!! It‘s my first book by Abby Jimenez and it was such an emotional, funny and touching read. Briana and Jacob are 2 ER doctors who do NOT have a meet cute moment. Briana is reeling from a bad divorce and dealing with a sick brother. Jacob suffers from anxiety. The way they find love is too adorable. 5 STARS. #YoursTruly. #BOTM

pickBoy, did I love this book! I am a sucker for handwriting in books anyway (probably stems from The Babysitter Club days of my youth). I have a habit where at some point I read the last sentence of a story, (a morbid habit) and this one was a bit of a spoiler but the journey getting there was so fun that I didn‘t care. The tension between our two main characters was lovely and ended up being a great payoff. #bookspin for April
pickWHEN will I meet a man irl that compares to an Abby Jimenez hero?? I was down so bad for Briana and Jacob and how tender they were with one another. Their families were so lovely, too! There's a trope at the end I know some people don't like, but I was all in, baby. #contemporaryromance #romcom

pickOh I liked this so much! Set in the same world as “Part of Your World “, but it stands completely on its own. I really appreciate the mental health aspects of this story and how love shows up, and all the ways it can.
pickI read this book because I absolutely had to read the Book of the Month 2023 book of the year. I enjoyed it, even though romance isn‘t one way favorite genres. I can‘t say it‘s one of the best books I read in 2023, but it was entertaining. It was pretty typical for a romance novel. It dealt with many issues, focusing on trust. The author made it personal by also focusing on organ donation. I‘m glad I read this book.
pickThis was really good! Not my usual genre, but I‘m thinking I need to add more like this into my reading rotation. The writing was on point, and Jacob is my new book boyfriend. My only gripe is the non-communication trope. 🗣️”Just ask the questions that you need to ask when you need ask them and so many problems will be avoided!!!” Regardless, a definitive pick ❤️

5 of my favorite contemporary romances that I read this year, so 5 books about #FallingInLove ❤️❤️❤️
He was like a living lullaby. A softly spoken word. The smell of coffee and toast in the morning or a cozy fleece blanket. The rain pattering on the roof on a day where you don‘t have to go anywhere or do anything.
This book is not perfect - sometimes Briana‘s insecurities, while relatable, are also exhausting (I‘m sure that was kind of the point). Anyway, I enjoyed reading this love story.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️CUUUUTE. Just like the first book. You don‘t have to read Part of Your World to enjoy Yours Truly, but I would bc it‘s fun to have the character glimpses. TBH I enjoyed Bri‘s story almost a little more! Super quick read despite the page number! Romcom vibes!
picki cried. and i read it in one day so you already know i loved every second of this book. i haven‘t read a fake dating trope in a long time, probably since to all the boys, so this was fun! i loved the characters, and i loved abby jimenez‘s writing and the personable details she includes. i thought the plot was fun and fresh and it was well paced. i enjoyed the doctor love story; i don‘t think i‘ve ever read one! i also loved the closed door-ness!
pickThere‘s a Big Misunderstanding 👎🏽 (I hate those so much!) but the characters and ending are so good that it‘s worth it ❤️
pickI really enjoyed this book. I read it in a day. The banter was great and the way the two MC treated each other was so empathetic. Very refreshing that the hero didn‘t have to be strong and virile all the time to get a reader to root for him. I want to read more!!! #BookSpin #12 #BFC23 #MMDSpringBookPreview #Rushathon #ReadySetRead #BookChain #SociallyDistancedBookClubAtoZ #ReadtheStates #BBRC Once Bitten, Twice Shy
pickAbby Jimenez always manages to bring the feels. I particularly identified with Jacob, as we share some of the same anxiety symptoms, though mine are not as significant as his.
pickA cute fake dating romance novel with some predictable bumps. It almost became a miscommunication trope, but everything was clarified before things could nosedive. I liked the slow burn of it all more than I expected. Abby Jimenez writes another good one.

August #botm pick! The Alice Hoffman add-on sounded interesting, but I wasn't sure enough to make it a pick. And I went with a member fave rather than a new choice.
pickGot a “skip the line” on my library e-book hold so of course I had to fit this into my weekend after enjoying Part of My World last month. Book 2 of that series—although it can work alone, unless you have series order issues like me.😉Sweet & funny with lovable main & secondary characters. The author did a great job sensitively incorporating social anxiety, depression, chronic illness & other topics within a satisfying romance.

pickIf someone asked me what word I would use to describe this book, the first thing that comes to mind is “Beautiful”. This book was absolutely beautiful. To say I am a fan of Abby‘s writing is a gross understatement.
pickThis novel was a great mix of romance, comedy, and heart. I absolutely loved the two main characters and their screwball, endearing myriad of family and friends. I also thought it was interesting to see one of the main characters have to battle with a pretty bad case of social anxiety (I think that was the main issue he was working with…I listened to the audiobook so couldn‘t go back and reference it). My only real “issue” with the story was ⬇️
pickOh my goodness, talk about a slow burn! This is my first Abby Jimenez book and I think I‘ll read some of her others, but hopefully they don‘t all have a slow burn like that.
This has fake dating and they write letters to each other. But both are really bad at expressing their feelings. Whereas, if they just had a conversation, they could have been together sooner.
Just a classic tbr stack that I hope I can get through in 2 weeks😅😬
pickMy goal for #JoysOfJune was simply to enjoy what I am reading. This was the first boon of the #readathon, and it met the requirement. Both my husband and son commented about me laughing out loud while reading. I always love the development of this authors characters.
pickThis was a wonderful romance story. I realized it was part of a series after I‘d started it, but it seemed stand alone. All the characters, especially the two ER doctor protagonists, are likable. There‘s a kidney transplant storyline, too. I really liked how the author showed multiple positive strategies for dealing with societal anxiety and trauma/fear of abandonment for each character. This was a good book.
pickI started out loving this book - the setting of the two intelligent MCs, the meet cute, the fake dating and why, organ donation, the great supporting characters. A romance needs a bump, but when it‘s miscommunication and that trope takes over the story my tips from my stars start dropping. This is still a pick, I liked it, it‘s just the unique story I was loving went astray.
Argh. Remember when I had that unexpected wealth of about 15 ebooks on my library hold list suddenly drop into my Libby app? And then I weirdly freaked out with some sort of library book paralysis of analysis and didn‘t read for ten days or so because I was overwhelmed with choices. I can‘t explain it. Now I‘m paying for it. This darling romance is due today. I‘ve already requested a hold. 8 weeks wait.Sigh. I can‘t wait. Time to buy the book 😂
I‘ve been looking forward to this one! It‘s my first read for the #14books14weeks2023 challenge!
