Description

A novel of terrible first impressions, hilarious second chances, and the joy in finding your perfect match from "a true talent" (Emily Henry, #1 New York Times bestselling author).

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.

“Abby Jimenez’s words…sprinkle humor and warmth all over my life.” –Ali Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis

    I liked this book but I also felt like it dragged at times and was a little repetitive. I do appreciate that one of the main characters anxiety was discussed so openly. Cute book overall.
  • One of the best books I’ve ever read

    What I really liked about the book without saying too much is it really goes into depth about the problems people face when finding true love, a lot of people go out and look for it and that’s what gets them hurt and makes them set up walls and barriers so that they’ll never get hurt the same but this book really depicts that and I love how it shows both sides, a really bad over thinker and what he goes through but also later on her trauma and what she goes through. This book definitely opened my mind on perspective and how important it is to know that no matter how well you know someone you can never be in their head and you never know what their truly thinking.
  • Wow!

    I rarely give a novel 5 stars, but there was something about this work that really resonated with me. I found myself laughing so many times throughout reading it and connected with both protagonists immediately. Finished it in two days and read the last 60% in one sitting. I couldn’t put it down.

    Everything about this book was amazing. I relate to Jacob in so many ways with his anxiety. And with Briana with her depression. And I loved the ending so much. 🥰

    I am completely blown away. “Yours Truly” has just rocketed to my absolute favorite Abby Jimenez book so far. Briana and Jacob both rang so true to me and felt so relatable. While managed, I cope with anxiety. Though I try to remain optimistic, I feel broken. Both of these feelings and more were intimately explored throughout the story, and I actually felt a little personally exposed. Abby has a talent for easily letting us into her characters’ minds and hearts, even when the two conflict with each other. This half-Pennsylvania Dutch, half-Puerto Rican girl really wants to try Rosa’s cooking and hang with Jacob’s lovably chaotic family. I wish I had better words to describe all the feels this book made me feel, but alas, I am not Abby.

    Two imperfect characters can fall in love. This book kept me coming back for more because I became invested in the outcome…one that is heartwarming and real.
