Kaylee Sharpe has one more radio interview to do before she’ll be able to leave the crazy Hollywood lifestyle behind. Normally such interviews are easy, but this one is with her ex-boyfriend-turned-shock-jock Mateo Salinas. Sexy and persuasive, he seems sincere when he tells her he’s changed. More than anything she wants to believe him, but can someone who makes a living being wild adjust to the calm, quiet world she craves?
Mateo has always regretted what happened between him and Kaylee in college. Back then, he was a first-class jerk, but now he’s different. Unfortunately, Kaylee only sees the insane radio show host, a persona he had created for his audience. To win her back he knows he must reveal the side he keeps hidden from the world, but doing so might cost him the one thing he holds most dear: his radio show.

REVIEW: LUCKY IN LAGUNA (KINDLE WORLDS: LAGUNA BEACH) BY RACHELLE AYALA
Laguna Beach: Lucky in Laguna by Rachelle AyalaMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
ARC Review: Lucky In Laguna (Kindle Worlds: Laguna Beach) by Rachelle Ayala
Reality television. It's a nuisance, it's unnecessary and it's highly addictive. Everywhere I turn there's a new untalented and hugely hyped group of pseudo celebrities looking for their shot at five minutes of fame. Kaira Rouda's Laguna Beach series delves into this world. The good, bad and ugliness behind the scenes is exposed with grit, emotional and charm. That is why I love this series.
With Lucky in Laguna, Ms. Rouda hands the baton over to an equally irresistible story teller in Rachelle Ayala. Laguna Lights' Laura Kincaid makes a cameo as Tally and Lucky's story unfolds. Clueless scriptwriter Lucky is a sweetheart. A sheep in a world of wolves. He's shy but so adorable that it's not hard to wish him well. Tally has her head so far up in the clouds she's willing to sell her soul for a chance at fame. Ms. Ayala introduces a host of new characters but I love that she included some of the originals as well. The message she gives with Lucky in Laguna is "big dreams are fine to aspire to but don't lose track of who you are along the way". Sound advice told in a story that holds up well to the original series and has a light, comedic delivery that I enjoyed.
