Hollywood Scandal by Louise Bay

Hollywood Scandal

by Louise Bay

HE’S A HOLLYWOOD SUPERSTAR. SHE’S LITERALLY THE GIRL NEXT DOOR.

One of Hollywood’s A-listers, I have the movie industry in the palm of my hand. But if I’m going to stay at the top, my playboy image needs an overhaul. No more tabloid headlines. No more parties. And absolutely no more one night stands.

Filming for my latest blockbuster takes place on the coast of Maine and I’m determined to stay out of trouble. But trouble finds me when I run into Lana Kelly. She doesn’t recognize me, she’s never heard of Matt Easton and my million dollar smile doesn’t work on her.

Ego shredded, I know I should keep my distance, but when I realize she’s my neighbor I know I’m toast. There’s no way I can resist temptation when it’s ten yards away. She has a mouth designed for pleasure and legs that will wrap perfectly around my waist. She’s movie star beautiful and her body is made to be mine.

Getting Lana Kelly into my bed is harder than I’m used to. She’s not interested in the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, but I’m determined to convince her the best place in the world is on the red carpet, holding my hand.

I could have any woman in the world, but all I want is the girl next door.

I'm not convinced a Hollywood Heartthrob is the right hero for me...

I was hesitant to try Hollywood Scandal, to be honest. It was a Louise Bay, who I love, so I pushed my hesitancy aside and did it anyway. I have a confession...movie stars do not do it for me. Sure, they look pretty, but at what cost? Their diets and exercise regimens would be intense. What if he expected me to maintain it too? SHUDDERS How much time would you get together considering shooting schedules and publicity commitments? I would also prefer that he not get paid to kiss other women. Nah, give me a bossy, hard working and possessive hero any day.

Well, if I'm going to settle for a Hollywood heartthrob, Matt would definitely be my first choice. He's sweet, HOT, kind, HOT, and thoughtful. He's also extremely HOT!! I loved that he fell for Lana pretty damn quickly and hated that he had to put his work commitments ahead of their budding relationship. He was determined though, and in the end, his determination definitely paid off.

Lana's history made their relationship a little rocky and I felt that she was a little too self-absorbed and selfish for most of the book.

In the end, I enjoyed this story. The characters were interesting, the steamy scenes were blush-worthy and the storyline kept my attention from start to finish.

The narrators did a fabulous job. They were easy to listen to and I never struggled when the characters changed.

I still love Louise Bay's work, but I'll hold for another King, Duke, Prince or Knight.
