Part of Your World is an enjoyable, addictive read that left me wanting more Abby Jimenez, but didn't leave me with the strongest memory of the content. The impossible lovers are a city doctor and a country woodworker/innkeeper/mayor. They both have strong family obligations that keep them in their respective lives, two hours apart. And yet they yearn for one another! 

The doctor, Alexis, is nine years older than the country boy, Daniel. She's also ten years younger than her recent ex, Neil, her hospital's chief of surgery, and her father's favorite child, lolsob. Ali and her twin brother Derek are expected to keep up their family's legacy of power-doctoring (surgeoning, really). Ali is an ER doctor. Derek is a renowned plastic surgeon, but has defected to Cambodia to Do Good (and Marry a Rock Star). leaving Alexis responsible for the entirety of the Montgomery family reputation. 

Meanwhile, Daniel's family has been may or Wakan for the same 125 years, but Wakan is more deserving of his attention than Alexis's asshole dad is of hers. How will they make it work???

Alexis's BFF:
"Well, just remember not to name his penis. Once you name it, you get attached."
