Blog Tour: Excerpt: Laguna Sights by Kaira Rouda


 
 
  LagunaSights BN Kobo
 
 
Is the price of fame the chance at true love?

Scott Cassidy has lived a blessed life. Growing up in Laguna Beach with a loving family, he was discovered in high school when he appeared on the popular reality TV show, Laguna Nights. Now cast as a doctor on the number one soap opera, his star keeps rising. Finally free from his long-term girlfriend, Scott isn’t looking for love, but when a popular dating app matches him with Jamie Kane, he can’t deny the sparks. But is she really everything she seems?

Jamie Kane isn’t lucky in love or life. Her childhood was tumultuous with a single mom who moved to Hollywood for fame but ended up waiting tables in Malibu. Certainly not one of the spoiled kids she went to high school and college with, Jamie has worked hard to achieve her dreams of being an actress, even as she begins to realize it’s not her calling. Jamie believes Scott may be the answer to everything unless a past mistake makes him doubt their future together.

Once you become a star, can you trust other people’s intentions?

EXCERPT


“Hey,” Jamie said from behind him. He turned around and his senses were instantly alive, remembering how strong the attraction was between them, even though he had tried to deny it while focusing on work. Jamie appeared like an angel, bathed in the light of the full moon, dressed in jeans and a simple pink sweater. Her cheeks were flushed and her dark hair hung in luscious waves around her shoulders. Her soft lips were coated in shiny lip gloss and Scott fought the urge to kiss her right then and there.

“Hey, beautiful,” he said. “Thanks for inviting me. I feel like I’m standing at the end of the world.”

“You sort of are. I’m so glad you came. I know it’s a drive from West Hollywood.”

Scott took a step closer, until they were standing as close as was possible without touching. He could feel the warmth of her body. He could smell the floral scent of her shampoo. She reached out and touched his arm, tilting her head up to look at him. His entire body responded to her touch and he just had to kiss her.

Jamie stood in front of him, lips slightly open, her eyes inviting. Scott didn’t need a second invitation. He cradled her face in his hands and leaned forward, his lips pressing against hers. The kiss started gently and he tilted his head, fitting their mouths together. Jamie wrapped her arms around his neck. As she gasped, her mouth opened for him. His tongue swept into her mouth and she stroked it back with hers, angling her head to deepen the kiss.

He felt her hands sliding down his shoulders and arms, then across his chest as she pressed herself to him, her body arching into his. Scott’s self-control slipped away, his resolve to tread lightly dashed as his hands dropped to her waist and then to her perfect butt, pressing her even more firmly against him. She heightened his arousal and he felt his erection thicken as she ground her hips against him.

She had to be the sexiest woman on the planet. He was more turned on than he’d been in a long time. He wanted to take her home. He wanted to forget the party, forget anything but the two of them.

Blog Tour: Excerpt + #Giveaway: Laguna Lights by Kaira Rouda #LagunaBeach







Welcome back to Laguna Beach...

Laura Kinkaid’s glamorous Hollywood life is falling apart. After years of reality television stardom beginning in high school on Laguna Nights, her career and relationship with her long-term boyfriend Scott are fizzling out. Laura decides to go home to Laguna Beach for the weekend to attend a baby shower for her high school friend. That decision – and a car accident – will lead her to a new future, if she’s ready to take a chance at love.

Paul Dorn’s former life in New York City is far behind him and he’s working in a popular Laguna Beach surf shop when fate brings the most beautiful woman he’s ever met into his life. The attraction is instant and he has an overwhelming desire to protect her. While Paul’s retail sales career is a short-term job for market research purposes, his focus on Laura is long-term.

Will Laura allow a handsome stranger to help her create a future unlike her past, or will the bright lights of Hollywood pull her back to LA?

EXCERPT
While Paul concentrated on the road, Laura took the chance to gaze at his profile. His thick brown hair was short, but not too short. Long enough for her to run her fingers through. He had noble-looking arched eyebrows that werent too thick. His square jaw cut a sharp line down from his ear to his strong chin that sported a days worth of stubble. Every feature of Pauls added to his overall look of male perfection. He pulled into the left turn lane in front of the Mondrian Resort and Laura laughed at the irony. Paul had no idea this place had played such a prominent role in her short-lived reality TV production. All she could hope was that Madison wasnt working tonight, and that the rest of the staff wouldnt recognize her from the shoot. She wanted to be incognito. She didnt want to be Hollywood. She just wanted to be Laura, a girl on a date with a cute boy named Paul. She wanted to feel as if she and Paul were the only people in the world.
     As Paul pulled into the valet lane in front of the resort, a uniformed man stepped to the car and pulled open her door. “Welcome to the Mondrian.”
     Another valet had rounded the front of the car and opened Pauls door. “Welcome back, Mr. Dorn. Dining with us tonight?” The valet handed Paul a valet ticket.
     “Yes, we are. Thank you, Tony.” Paul slid the valet some money before joining Laura on the sidewalk, sliding an arm around her waist and walking with her to the front door of the resort.
     “How do the parking attendants know your name? Who are you, Paul Dorn? I know you cant just work in a surf shop,” Laura said, nudging his side with her shoulder.
