Laguna Lights (Laguna Beach #3) by Kaira Rouda

Welcome back to Laguna Beach, California ...


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?

My Review

This is a very quick read and begins with two people calling it quits after a long romance that started in high school. Scott and Laura have been living the fast pace life of Hollywood, and as stars. Laura’s star has faded a bit, but Scott is still rising, and he is now looking elsewhere.
What would you do if you were in a long-term relationship and it ended? Why head back home to Laguna Beach, and that is where life takes a complete turn for Laura.
You need to pick this one up that is full of surprises and fate, and a mother who won’t give up and hopes to bring Scott back into Laura’s life.
There are some x-rated scenes in this book, which is not my typical read, and the story for me would have been good without the added sex. Guess that is what sells for some people, not me.
I received this book through Pump Up Your Book and was not required to give a positive review.
