‘Here, Home, Hope’ Book Launch

Bestselling author Kaira Rouda’s debut women’s fiction novel Here, Home, Hope debuts May 1. Rouda is celebrating her book’s launch and the support of Malibu with a celebration open to the public hosted by her favorite designer, Elizabeth Lamont, and home store, Room at the Beach. 

Here, Home, Hope is the perfect beach read and I’m excited to kick off my nationwide summer book tour here in Malibu at one of my favorite places,” said Rouda, who will embark on a 15+ city book tour staring in May. “I’ve had tremendous support from the Malibu community and several women’s fiction authors I adore. This is my dream coming true.”

The public is invited to celebrate with the author, who will appear at Room at the Beach with light refreshments and a reading. Books will be sold at the event, and can be signed by the author.

The event will include a Malibu Lifestyle Raffle with 100 percent of raffle proceeds and a portion of book sales being donated to Human Rights Watch, an organization dear to Rouda, who is including a charitable component to all her book signings.
