Part Of Your World
The New York Times bestselling author of Life’s Too Short delivers a refreshingly modern fairy tale perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Emily Henry. After a wild bet, 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?

Det skulle kun være en flygtig affære, men snart bliver deres stjålne øjeblikke til noget mere … Alexis står på tærsklen til en lovende karriere som kirurg, en fremtid, hvor der ikke er plads til et idyllisk liv på landet.

Midt i et virvar af lidenskab og pligt, står de nu over for den ultimative prøve: Kan de forene deres radikalt forskellige liv, eller er de dømt til at vælge mellem hjertet og den verden, de kender?
