Review by Shannon P.
You know when you finish a book and you wonder what happened to these characters that you have completely fallen in love with? I always hope for the best [of course], but that’s not reality. Life is not always roses and rainbows. All the Way is a follow up novella to Natexus, and we get to see firsthand what happened with Natalie and Alex. It’s an emotional rollercoaster, but it is so worth the ride. Don’t wait any longer and join me on this magical adventure with Victoria L. James. You will not be disappointed. Her writing is intoxicating.
I give All the Way 4.5 stars.

Frank A’s Review:
Victoria L James has become one of my absolute favorite authors. Seriously if I get a new book from her and Stephen King on the same day which one I start depends on whether the sun is still shining or not. That being said I have a HUGE problem with her latest offering All the Way which is a novella that continues the love story of Natalie and Alex. You caught that didn’t you? A novella. Natalie and Alex have single handedly made me want to travel to London, something Romeo and Juliet were unable to do. Natalie and Alex had me talking out loud to myself and getting strange looks from my Angel which is way more than Arthur and Guinevere could accomplish. This is THE love couple, Miss James, Victoria, a novella? Yes, it was wonderfully written. Yes, it gave us some much needed closure and well thought out insight. Yes, I enjoyed every single page. But I still feel shortchanged. If you read Natexus this is a must read. If you didn’t shame on you go read it. The Devil awards this 4.5 pitchforks
All The Way by Victoria L. James
Tanya Rae’s rating: 4.5 of 5 stars
There was a note from Victoria L. James saying that “All The Way wasn’t meant to happen. But, the voices of Alex Law and Natalie Vincent kept shouting at her.
I am so happy that there is more of Alex and Natalie story. It has been almost a year since Natexus came out and I feel like we have waited forever to hear more of their story.
It is still a struggle to keep Alex and Natalie’s relationship together. Natalie finds out more about Marcus trying to keep Alex away from her. (But, I still love Marcus too) I can’t say a lot more other than I loved All The Way.
A little quote from All The Way:
“Tonight, I don’t want us to be anything other than intensely R-rated.”
and this reviewer says – Hmmm Intensely R Rated is good VERY good…. ;D
It looks like the voices are still talking to Victoria L. James because Marcus story will be out in 2017. Hopefully Alex and Marcus will become friends in the next book for Natalie’s sake.

I give All The Way 4.5 stars and I am looking forward to Marcus’s story.
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.
Seven breaths left in her chest, yet I looked back at him. He wasn’t meant to be there on the darkest night of my life, but the mysterious Alex Law continued to make a habit of showing up when I least expected him. With one look in his eyes, everything I’d ever been before him drifted away, and everything I was about to become revolved around him. Grief threatened to ruin me no matter how hard I fought, and Alex had demons of his own to deal with, yet we found a comfort in each other’s pain. We found ourselves alone, two people becoming one. Just us. Natalie and Alex. Natexus. As long as we had each other, we thought we could make it through anything.
We didn’t know there were things out there waiting to destroy us: people we couldn’t escape, fates we couldn’t outrun and regrets we couldn’t avoid. Not all love stories go the same way, and ours was about to take a turn neither one of us could have foreseen. All I could do was stand by and watch as my world fell apart for a second time.
I knew there had been life before Alex Law.
I just had to figure out if there was life after him…
That beautiful, tragic first love of mine.
– Natalie Vincent.
