Tempted by Hollywood’s Top Doc
Louisa George
Behind the scenes...
Top-of-his-game neurosurgeon Dr. Jake Lewis has thrown himself into work in a bid to forget the past. Now, used to high-octane medical emergencies, he’s furious to be temporarily assigned to pander to LA’s biggest diva!
Yet when he meets headstrong assistant-to-the-stars Lola Bennett, their instant chemistry makes his new job much more tempting! He’s working with her on set in the sultry Bahamas, and it’s just a matter of time before that chemistry reaches the boiling point...
To my Zumba buddies Jackie, Sue, Roisel,
Yenny and Avril, I can’t think of a better way
to start the day than dancing and having fun
with friends. I’m very lucky to have you guys
in my life. Thank you xx
‘LOLA! WHERE ARE YOU? Lola!’ The sing-song screech came from inside the trailer.
Outside the trailer, Lola Bennett came to a halt and took a long calming breath. When that ran out she took another one. And...
So, it seemed calm would be eluding her today.
Behind her she heard muttered grumbles between the director, the assistant producer and the leading man. Irrational though it was, she felt guilty that the woman who employed her was ramping up the film budget and delaying filming because of mild stomach cramps, no doubt brought on by an overdose of her large kale and wheatgrass breakfast smoothie.
Lucky, Lola told herself. Dream job. Steps to the stars. Foot in the door...
Phooey. Being personal assistant to A-lister Cameron Fontaine was probably some poor misguided soul’s dream job, but for Lola the constant demands were fast turning into a nightmare. Sometimes she thought the waitressing job had been preferable...but then all she had to do was look around her and breathe in the hallowed Hollywood air, see the actors going over their scripts—scripts like the one she was working on—and feel the shiver of excitement course through her. And she knew she was exactly where she wanted to be: Los Angeles. She was here, finally here. The only place on earth where she could achieve her crazy, wild dreams. The City of Angels.
All would be well, if only Cameron Fontaine could be remotely angelic. Once? Too much to ask?
‘Lola!’ Clearly there was nothing wrong with Miss Fontaine’s vocal cords.
‘Yes, Miss Fontaine?’
