This was so easy to read in a day, because I simply couldn't get enough! The characters were lovable, the conflict was expected but not contrived and annoying. It was funny and had me rooting for the main characters the whole time.

Jacob is the sweetest person ever. Best representation of anxiety I’ve seen in a book (as someone who has it). I love the fake dating trope but wasn’t as much of a fan of the miscommunication. Still a fun read

I have to say, the main reason why I started reading this book right after I finished Part of Your World was because I wanted more of Alexis and Daniel. However, I am very happy I did because I loved Briana and Jacob just as much.
I love when characters have real life problems and we get to see them grow and learn how to deal with them, and this book has just that. I have fallen in love with Abby Jimenez books and I am very excited to read more.

I really enjoyed the portrayal of social anxiety in this book and found both main characters lovable. However, I didn’t love that
there were SO many surprise pregnancies at the end

After a series of unfortunate first impressions, two doctors become each other's safe space at time when they are both feeling lost and alone. 

This book is very cute and absolutely hilarious! I didn't love it as much as the first because of the constant miscommunication and repetition. Like chapters and chapters of miscommunication. They make countless assumptions about each other and instead of talking to each other, they just let it get in the way. Due to the miscommunication we get internal monologues odlf
“there’s no way she likes me it’s fake”/ “there’s no way he likes me it’s a rebound" on repeat for 1/3 of the book. 

Briana is a successful doctor who is dealing with a terrible divorce and a brother who needs a kidney transplant. She is so strong, but she is in desperate need of therapy. She has trust issues due to her father leaving her family and her husband cheating on her with her friend. She has never dealt with those insecurities and issues, she just lets them consume her and let's it stand in the way of her possible relationship with Jacob. She has a secret crazy side, which was hilarious - the glitter story!!!!

Jacob is the greenest of green flags. He is considerate, thoughtful, and sweet. He has crippling anxiety that leads him to isolate himself and have panic attacks. At times it seemed like he was more on the ASD spectrum than anxiety, but either way, I felt like the author approached this topic with compassion and in an understandable way. He is such a selfless and caring man - he donates a kidney and forgives his brother for marrying his ex (wtf!)! 

I really love these two together. The letters are so adorable! You can feel how much they love each other. She takes the time to understand Jacob and does what she can to make his life better. I love how he never gives up on Briana, he understands her issues and is there with her through it all. 

Tropes: slow burn, rivals to friends to lovers, fake dating, co-workers
