Welcome to Paradise. Otherwise known as Laguna Beach.

You've seen the backstabbing, betrayal, and small-town gossip set against the wealthy beachside paradise that is Laguna Beach, California. You've seen hook-ups, break-ups, screw-ups and make-ups -- and all just during two years of school. Now find out what life was like for the stars of Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County before the hit MTV series. Think you know Kristin, Talan, Stephen, Taylor, LC, and their friends? Think again. You'll find out:

• How and when Stephen and LC hooked up and the "drama" that followed

• How Stephen and Kristin started dating

• Why Trey got interested in activism and politics

• How Lo learns that it's better to go to a party in Laguna Beach than to give one

• Talan's life as a pre-teen football star

• Taylor and Alex M.'s early fights over boys

• What their lives were like growing up

• What they all thought of each other when they first met, how their friendships formed, and more

Packed with tons of exclusive material from embarrassing baby photos to first-kiss stories, here is everything you ever wanted to know about Laguna Beach's teen royalty.

If you do remember the "drama" of junior high, the "intense" experiences that in retrospect seem rather silly, then look no further than this collection of stories. If you watch Laguna Beach as a guilty pleasure and want that kind of heavy-hitting back-stabbing action, you might be a little disappointed. Any serious fan will enjoy learning the backstories of the real kids of Orange County, but otherwise the book is a little lacking.

There are tons of pictures inside, but most are in black and white, except for a few glossies in the center section.

The cover of the book states clearly "Media Tie-In," so this book is advertised as exactly what it consists of. If you want a media tie-in and Laguna Beach is your favorite show, here you go. If you want racy drama, go watch the show, or, better yet, find another novel or story collection.
