.........................
Dr Briana Ortiz's life is seriously flatlining. Her divorce is just about finalised, 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. 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.
When Jacob turns out to be the perfect donor for her brother, Bri starts to realise that this quietly sexy new doctor might just be her perfect match, too.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Romance author Abby Jimenez never fails to keep things hopeful and uplifting, even when tackling heavy themes like grief and mental health, and Yours Truly is no exception. It follows Briana Ortiz, an ER doctor who’s “done with men” after a messy marriage and divorce. Despite her intention to focus solely on her family and career, Briana finds herself unable to resist the charm of her sexy new colleague, Dr Jacob Maddox. Jimenez uses her intensely funny style to squeeze new life out of the fake-relationship trope. She takes the story in some outrageous directions while keeping things grounded with strongly developed characters and enjoyable details (a parrot named Jafar and a dog named Lieutenant Dan are just two worth mentioning). Yours Truly is a delightful read with hope and optimism at its core.

Easy Listen
Decent plot (nothing extraordinary) Funny. Great insight into social anxiety from a males perspective. Did get rather long with internal dialogue- a bit repetitive “does she like me, does he like me?” Which got rather annoying towards the end.
