“Say You’ll Remember Me” is a new romance novel from a New York Times best-selling author, Abby Jimenez, known for her popular romance novels such as “Just for the Summer.” The book was published on April 1 and is available in multiple hardcover editions, as well as eBook and audiobook formats.

The hardcover edition of Jimenez’s novel contains 368 pages, while the eBook has 361 pages. There are three exclusive hardcover editions available at different retailers. The Walmart exclusive features exclusive color artwork of a scene from the book and a recipe inspired by the story. The Target edition includes a reversible jacket cover and an author’s note. The Barnes & Noble exclusive offers designed endpapers and a bonus chapter, a deleted prologue from her next book.

Jimenez is known for typically using first-person perspectives from both main characters, often alternating between them each chapter. Her writing often incorporates real-life struggles while ultimately providing positive outcomes for her characters.

“Say You’ll Remember Me” marks the beginning of a new series, yet it remains within the same universe as her previous series, which includes “The Friend Zone” and “Just for the Summer.” Jimenez is known for including cameos and Easter eggs that connect to her future books.

The main characters in this novel are Samantha Diaz and Xavier Rush. Xavier, a veterinarian, first meets Samantha when she brings her kitten in for a checkup. After an initial misstep, Samantha becomes determined to prove Xavier wrong. Several weeks later, they meet again and go on their first date. While they quickly realize they are a perfect match, they face obstacles that make it difficult to continue.

Currently, a paperback edition is not available in the United States but is offered in Europe and Canada. This lack of a paperback version is frustrating for readers who prefer this format, especially considering all of Jimenez’s previous works have been released in paperback. However, Jimenez has mentioned that a paperback version of “Say You’ll Remember Me” will eventually be released in the United States within the next 8 to 12 months.

While the ending of the book may not have been the most conventionally expected, Jimenez effectively portrays the challenges of long-distance relationships, and the difficulties associated with dementia.
