I had my first contemporary romance novel, Passion Surrender released this past January by Eternal Press.
I've been married to my husband for 30 years. We have three great sons and four grandchildren.
By day I work for a great company as a medical claims resolution specialist and by night I create lovable characters who take you on a romantic roller coaster.
I am currently, working on my second novel titled On The Run - Cain vs. Abel, which I hope to finish by mid summer.
I hope you will take the time to read my book and write a review.

Passion Surrender was a nice refreshing story. Kimberly Tipton did an incredible job when she wrote this book. I will recommend this book, you don't want to miss it.

This was such a sweet romantic read with wonderful characters, great locations, interesting storyline, and romantic love scenes. I found this to be such an entertaining read with all the drama, amazing detailed locations, and fun characters (like Stella and Jeanna) that I was disappointed it ended so soon. Great first time book by this author.

This is the debut novel by author Kimberly Tipton and it is an amazing one! She took the reader on a non-stop journey that had all kinds of twists, turns, loops, and curves and it really packed a punch! It was an attention grabbing read right from the start. The author took us on a journey around the globe and made the reader feel like they were right there with the characters in all of the different locations.
Kate was having a bad day, but she didn't let that stop her from landing the biggest account of her life - along with a little extra. Clive had a few ideas of his own and together they must work together to see if both of their ideas can merge together. The author did a great job with developing the characters and with making the readers feel a connection to them.
The plot flowed smoothly and seamlessly and left the reader on the edge of their seat, wondering what was going to happen next. I am looking forward to more books by this author and seeing what other topics, characters and situations she comes up with next.
Make sure you add this book to your TBR list - you don't want to miss out on this amazing book! Happy Reading!

Kate is an advertising executive that has whose day has started off as a complete disaster with one of her biggest perspective accounts waiting very impatiently in the next room. Some quick thinking by her associate, Stella saves her on the appearance side and then her talent that already had her climbing the corporate ladder lead her save the client. But this is only the beginning of the twists. Clive Toller insists that Kate be the female model in the commercials. Not only is this outside Kate’s comfort zone it starts to blur the boundaries between personal and professional.
There are forces at work that have Kate taking a serious look at her life and decide how she wants to live. How much is she willing to put herself on the line and how far is she willing to jump for the life that she wants. She’s got great friends with Stella and Jenna who help her overcome her fear of risk and a man who is willing to be at her side through it all.
It was a refreshing and great story to read. I truly enjoyed the flow and storyline. I look forward to reading Kimberly’s books in the future.
This book was given to me by Ms. Tipton in exchange for an honest review.
Ms. Tipton's book was a nice, quick read that had me turning pages from start to finish. However, that being said I just didn't get that deep of a connection with the book and it's been bothering me as to why. Either way, here's the summary ...
Kate starts the day from hell at her advertising job where she must present to a top client. With the help of her coworker Stella, the day from hell turns into the opportunity for the adventure of the lifetime. Passion ensues as Kate is pushed out of her comfort zone and into the arms of the mysterious Clive Toller.
Fast paced, great read. Thank you for the chance to read and review.
Really a very enjoyable read. The twists and turns kept my attention. Kate was cute. Clive made an awesome fairytale fairytale prince. I loved the trip to Fiji! The descriptions made me imagine being there. Loved Stella. Jenna was like the assistant to the Fairy Godmother (she was spot on and on top of everything). There are some tear-jerker moments a couple of times in this book and they are pulled off well and very unexpected. I would've liked to have had this as a 2- or 3- hundred page story. I was definitely not ready for the end.
While I felt that the characters were underdeveloped, the plot and setting were good. The plotline had me turning the pages quickly and the descriptions of each scene were detailed. Overall, I give this book good for a quick read.
