About the Book

A refreshingly modern fairy tale and instant New York Times bestseller that Love Hypothesis author Ali Hazelwood hails as "an uplifting, feel-good, romantic read."

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?

Review

This was easily one of the best books that I’ve read all year. It had to have been laced with magic. It was so good and so entertaining.

Alexis is a workaholic, responsible ER doctor who feels like she’s not good enough to live up to the family name. She left an abusive ex, and her family and most of her friends still prefer him and invite him around. After attending a funeral, she crosses paths with a small-town mayor/ carpenter who is ten years younger than her, but the attraction is real.

Daniel was so sweet, honest, and caring. Literally a walking perfection. He owns a B&B, babysits baby goats. And the most important part, he sees Alexis for who she is and wants nothing more for her to be happy and comfortable.

Their relationship starts as purely physical; however, she has to drive four hours to see him, so he makes it worth her while. He takes her to special places in the town; tells her the history. They meet other special people that can only be found in a small town. And as that happens, they start to develop feelings towards each other. Now enter the emotional heavy stuff of the plot. Obviously, Alexis has family issues, and then there’s the toxic ex. All of those play a part in her being hesitant at letting Daniel see her world.

It's hard not to get emotional while reading those scenes. There were a few moments where I did tear up. Alexis was a great character, and I wanted what was best for her. And she was in a difficult position, and it was so rewarding to see her personal growth and her choose happiness in the end.

Final Thoughts

Part of Your World has lovable main characters, a magical small town, and an emotional journey that warrants tissues nearby.
