REVIEW: All the Way by Victoria L. James

Six minutes after he’d vowed to love me forever and I was the happiest I’d ever been. He wasn’t meant to be with me at the start of my next adventure, but the other half of my soul — the man I’d been away from for far too long — had slammed back into my life with unashamed force all over again. With one look in his eyes, I was lost to all his promises, and I couldn’t find a single reason for us to spend another second apart.

Happiness became a dangerous addiction — one Alex Law was able to wrap me in with an ease no one else had ever done before. Yet no matter how high the clouds we rode upon climbed, the echoes of our pasts never seemed to be too far away.

Not all happily ever afters go the same way and ours was about to bring out sides of both of us that we never knew existed. All I could do was hold my breath and hope that whatever storms we passed through, they wouldn’t be strong enough to tear us apart for a second time.

Our eternity started with a kiss. Now it was up to me to prove that forever really could last a lifetime with nobody else but him.

That beautiful, breathtaking first love of mine.

My Review

Have you ever wondered what happened after the Happily Ever After? Is everything really a fairy tale? All the Way answers those questions and then some. In full disclosure, you MUST read Natexus before reading All the Way. So do NOT pass go, do NOT collect $200….go read  Natexus if you haven’t already (seriously, it’s amazing). Now, on to All the Way….
In this perfect little novella Victoria L. James encaptured the perfect love. All the beautiful, the ugly, the jealous, the self doubt…it’s all here. Perfectly wrapped in this little book.  She shows what happens when you love completely. These two characters give so much of themselves to each other, you think of them in one unit. They are fluid, like water. She inhales, he exhales. Any doubts I had about Alex were settled in this story. Victoria reminded me why I loved him so  much in the first book. The way he knows just what Nat needs and will do anything for her will make your heart happy. Of course, not everything is rainbows and exploding hearts. There is self doubt, jealousy, still wondering….am I good enough for the other person. Can I be enough? And proving to them that you can handle whatever is thrown your way…..as long as you are together. These two lost 5 years. It’s time to look forward and stop looking back. Time to settle the demons and put the fears to rest. For  these two, it’s finally time to go all the way and just be, forever, Natexus

Meet the Author 

Victoria L. James is a teenage girl stuck in a thirty-something year-old’s body. A Corona and nacho appreciator with a ridiculous obsession for all things Rocky Balboa, she currently lives in Yorkshire, England with her husband and two baby boys. Having had a strong passion for words and stories going as far back as she can remember, she credits her love of literature to her Grandma Bess who taught her that you didn’t need a lot of money to travel to different worlds, experience new places, and live a thousand lives.

And so Victoria’s unexpected journey to writing began, one impressionable Sweet Valley High book, and tragic diary entry at a time.

Wearing her heart on her sleeve and trying to lighten life with naff, and more often than not, badly-timed, nineties jokes, she has yet to learn the art of knowing when to shut up.

A firm believer in never quitting and a champion of every underdog that exists, she dreams of being able to write forever, hoping her stories will inspire at least one person out there to keep on pushing against the tide of their own struggles. Reading is always the ultimate escape.
