Mr. Hollywood
Lacey Weatherford - 2015
. . he's at the top of my list for new book boyfriends!” – Belinda Boring, Bestselling Author of The Mystic Wolves "You don't want to miss this beautiful and steamy love story!” – Vonnie Hudson, Book Cafe "Lacey Weatherford has done it yet again! . . . Bravo for another awesome book!” – Lisa Markson, The Paranormal Bookworm ". . . A rollercoaster you never want to get off. This is one of my favorite books of hers ever!” – Julie Engle, Book Café Overview: Women want him. Men want to be him. But sometimes things aren't always what they seem. Blurb: Hollywood’s brightest star has it all; fame, women, and more money than he could possibly know what to do with. Unfortunately for the actor known as Z. McCartney, that’s also his recipe for failure. The problem with being “on top,” is there is a long way to go when you fall. He didn’t mean to get addicted to drugs. It all started out harmlessly enough. But now faced with rehab, he knows he’s in a world of hurt. Thankfully, Z is ready for change. He is ready to commit. However, it’s not his newfound sobriety he’s ready to commit to, but his nurse, and former high school sweetheart, Aubrey. Everyone knows relationships are a strict no-no for a recovering addict. Z doesn’t care though. This is his Aubrey, the one who got away, and he’s more than happy to try and persuade her to his way of thinking. Only one problem…Aubrey is a stickler for rules, not to mention she’s already been burned by Z and won’t give him the time of day. But that’s okay. There’s a reason Z is the #1 actor in all of Hollywood, and he plans to pull out all the stops to get this girl. *Note: Recommended for 18+ due to mature themes and subject matter. **A Celebrity Novel: This book is a standalone novel, but will have future companion stories that follow. All books can be read apart from each other.

More focused than I’d ever been, it was time to take the bull by the horns. And God help the person who stood in in my way. ******** Things I left behind in Seattle, Washington: A promising career at a top marking firm, the past I was desperate to escape, and obviously my sense of direction. It was because of all of those reasons I was standing in the middle of New York City lost and cursing at my phone. If I didn’t get to Tate and Cane soon, I wouldn’t only be late, but also blow the chance to make the good impression on my new boss, Mason Quinn. And I needed that more than anything. One wrong turn, an unfortunate collision, and an expensive suit drenched in my soy chia tea latte was not how I wanted to start my first day. Then there was the other little problem I had.

Motorcycles, mayhem, and all things illegal is just the way I like it. Made the decision long ago that I didn’t have the desire to ever claim an old lady and be stuck with one woman for the rest of my life. It might look good on my brothers, but I was certain it never would on me. So, I got myself a loyal companion in the form of man’s best friend. Little did I know that my beloved, and most trusted partner in crime would lead me straight to my downfall; Novalee. She’s not just any woman, either. During the day she’s referred to as Doctor Porter. That woman’s mere presence threatens to conjure something deep inside me that I was certain I was incapable of having; which makes her dangerous. She’s a treasure to be had and claiming Novalee would only place her permanently in harm's way. I’ve done my best to avoid allowing myself to completely fall for her. But sometimes I question if I’m being honest with myself about what she’s stirred up inside me. An unexpected turn of events changes both of our lives forever, and now I only hope I don’t live out the rest of my days with regrets. Have my actions, or lack thereof inadvertently placed her in immediate danger? Blood has been shed, and during this, a life taken was the ultimate price.
Novalee:
I’ll never forget the day I first looked into the depth of those ocean blues, and allowed myself to drown. One look at Fox and I had not a single care that he was a known member of the notorious Twisted Iron MC. Sure we live in a small town and people talk. But my profession and reputation far precede any gossip formed from the loose-lipped old biddies in this community. My eyes were set on the prize in the form of one tall, dark blonde-headed, chiseled, work of human art. I’m friends with some of the old ladies from his club. So, his history with women is no newsflash for me. What I was not expecting, however, was the way my body ached to be near his after one lust-filled encounter. I’ve built an amazing life and legacy for myself. I never expected to crave a man the way that I do Fox. I save animal lives for a living, so it seems silly to fantasize about. That is, of course, until my life ends up being the one needing to be saved. All I want is everything I’ve worked so hard for. The moment I get close to having my heart’s desire, becomes the moment my very existence begins to race against the clock. This can’t be how it ends, can it?
