Hills star Lauren Conrad inks book deal

Lauren Conrad can add a new position to her resume: author. The 22-year-old star of MTV's non-fiction series The Hills will pen a young adult fiction book series for HarperCollins, the publisher announced on Thursday. The three-book series will be titled LA Candyand will be loosely inspired by Conrad's transformation from teenager to reality TV star and fashion designer. "I've always loved books that I could lose myself in, ones that would transport me to another place, but had characters I could relate to," Conrad said. "I'm so excited to have this opportunity to write books like that for other readers." The first book in the series will be published summer 2009.
