I loved this book. I adored everything about it. Though it dealt with some heavy subjects, it was so heartwarming and adorable!
Daniel and Alexis make no sense together. They are from completely opposite worlds, yet they just fit perfectly together. You can't help but root for them. They face insurmountable odds, but they are meant to be.
Daniel is such a selfless, compassionate, and thoughtful man. He is a carpenter who runs a bnb and is also mayor of Wakan. All he wants to do is to take care of those he loves. He would drop everything to be at Alexi' side. Plus he has a baby goat in PJs ...
Alexis comes from a family of world renowned doctors. It was so frustrating to see her put father's demands above her own needs and wants, but she was probably suffering from PTSD from years of abuse. I loved seeing her journey to heal from the emotional abuse she suffered as a child and with her ex. Through her relationship with Daniel and being around the people of his town, she learns to heal and finally finds her voice. She goes from a very timid and anxious woman, to one who embraces her worth and power.
One of my favourite parts of this book was the found family aspect. Blood isn't everything, Alexis' mom and dad certainly proved that. The town of Wakan is like one big family who are there for each other through thick and thin. And Bri was such an incredible friend for Alexis.
Tropes: age gap, opposites attract, found families.

So, small town romances? They're growing on me, and let me tell you, "Part of Your World" knocked it out of the park. I was all in from the get-go, diving headfirst into this charming setting filled with quirky characters and undeniable chemistry.
Now, let's talk about Alexis and Daniel. These two? Absolute gems. Despite their differences, their connection is electric, and I couldn't help but root for them every step of the way. And don't even get me started on Daniel – he's the epitome of the perfect boyfriend, despite Alexis not always treating him as such.
But what really stood out to me was the depth of the family dynamics. Both Alexis and Daniel grapple with toxic parents, adding layers of complexity to their relationship. Abby Jimenez handled these difficult topics with grace and maturity while still keeping the overall tone fun and lighthearted.
From the enchanting small town to the empowering moments of self-discovery, "Part of Your World" had me hooked from start to finish. Alexis's journey towards recognizing her worth left me feeling empowered, and Daniel? Well, let's just say he's the cinnamon roll hero we all deserve.
If you're a fan of small-town romances, reverse age gaps, rom coms, and cute baby animals, then "Part of Your World" is a must-read. It's heartfelt, swoon-worthy, and guaranteed to leave you smiling long after you've turned the last page.
