Rachael’s Review
With her divorce about to be finalized, Dr. Brianna Ortiz’s life seems to have been sidetracked. Not only is her brother running out of time for a kidney transplant but also the new annoying doctor, Jacob Maddox, is likely going to steal her promotion. But after Jacob sends her a letter, she finds he is quite the opposite of what she thought. When he volunteers to be a kidney donor for her brother, she finds she can’t resist him, especially when he calls in a favor she can’t refuse.
Abby Jimenez’s charmingly funny romance weaves together a ton of romance tropes: mental health and trauma from past relationships, coworkers fake dating, a little pen pal action, surprise pregnancy, and a whole lot of miscommunication. Technically a sequel to Part of Your World, you don’t have to have read the first book (I didn’t) since the main character is just a side character, and vice versa. If you enjoy romance books, you’ll likely love Yours Truly, though it is steamy in only a few spots. I really enjoyed the novel until about the 90% mark, and then the miscommunication trope got old, as it generally does for me.
Publisher’s Description
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.
