Book Description

Publication Date: December 1, 2008

Running For Her Life...

As manager of the hot nightclub Skye, Payton Vaughn thinks she's seen it all. . .until the night she witnesses a cold blooded murder. The cops put Payton into protective custody, but the killers still manage to track her down. Suddenly, Payton finds herself on the run in the middle of the night, clad only in her nightgown, and carjacking a reporter--a very good-looking one at that--just to get a ride out of town...

Shouldn't Feel This Good...

Like every other reporter, Adriano wants in on the Payton Vaughn story in a big way. When the sexy crime witness carjacks his news van, Adriano goes from covering the story to being part of it. His first instinct is to get an exclusive interview, but the instant attraction he feels makes Adriano want to protect Payton, not exploit her. With the killers on their trail, Payton and Adriano can't afford to let things get physical. But life on the run has a funny way of heating things up between two people who have no one to turn to--except each other...

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

This action-packed contemporary romance suffers from a heroine imperiled by bad judgment and an otherwise terrific hero who can't seem to figure out the happily-ever-after that's staring him in the face. A shoot-out at the hotel where police have stashed murder witness Payton Vaughn leaves her protectors dead. She escapes into the night, and in desperation carjacks journalist Adriano Norwood. Payton tries to shield Adriano, but soon admits to managing a nightclub for notorious drug dealer Sherman Grazicky until she saw a hit he ordered. As Adriano's partner works to translate evidence Payton didn't even know she had, Grazicky's jealous wife plots Payton's death. White (Forever After) throws in some hot scenes, but strong chemistry can't mitigate Payton's willingness to advance her career by working for a mobster or Adriano's inability to see beyond the next five minutes.

This review is from: All The Way (Mass Market Paperback)

ALL THE WAY by Kimberley White is an action-packed romance from beginning all the way to the suspenseful conclusion. Payton Vaughn, a manager of an upscale nightclub in Charlotte, North Carolina, has her sight set on managing a new and equally impressive nightclub in Miami. However, one night she witnesses a murder inside the Charlotte club, contacts the police and is immediately placed into protective custody. While in hiding, hit men track her down but she manages to escape. While escaping, she carjacks an investigative reporter who happens to be investigating the same person Payton is hiding from.

Adriano works for the Chicago City Newspaper and has no choice but to assist Payton in her escape, but it is a two-prong deal for him, he'll help, but he wants an exclusive story. What begins as an adventure, quickly turns to romance with danger constantly lurking in the shadows.

ALL THE WAY is a fast-paced, never-ending saga, filled with endearing characters. The conclusion reveals the true murderers, the reason behind the gruesome crimes, the likes of the local police department in relationship to the FBI and the inner workings of investigative reporting. Truly entertaining!

This review is from: All The Way (Mass Market Paperback)

Reporter Adriano Norwood was sitting in his news van minding his own business when in jumps Payton Vaughn demanding that he drive. Adriano is a gorgeous reporter playboy in Charlotte on assignment. Never in a million years did he think he would end up in the mist of mess involving the most notorious family in Charlotte. Payton was the only witness to her employer ordering a hit on someone. While in protective custody, she flees because her employer's people are coming for her. Payton and Adriano end up on an outrageous adventure. Somewhere between dodging bullets and high speed chases, they fell in love.

Kimberly White does a good job of mixing the romance and action adventure elements together. All the Way is packed with thrills and suspense, but White managed to keep the romance element believable. The characters in this story are great. You find yourself in the story with them trying to figure out what would happen next, and always routing for them to work it out in the love department.

Romance Me "zarizsi" (Phoenix, Arizona USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: All The Way (Mass Market Paperback)

The H/H did so many dumb things. I mean in one scene He tells her not to answer the door because they are out there and she looks at him like 'What?!' and answers the door. That is just one example of the stupid things that she did. I mean she was in protective custody because they wanted to keep her safe and what does she do? Sneak out because she misses her man. I mean really, she just saw him that morning. She was hiding from murderers. Very scary and violent murders (like there is another type) but she kept putting herself in situations that caused other to be hurt and even killed. Why did he fall in love with her. She was selfish. I threw this book across the room and yelled at it. Dumb woman!
