I have to agree with Station_Master and Sopt - poorly played. 
In my opinion, calling Pre-Flop was a mistake. Fold for three reasons. 
One - these cards have only flush potential (and a weak one at that) and an extremely week straight draw.  
Two - LJ and Button both in for the $5 raise - both hands likely much better than you off the mark. 
Three - your position is bad news. You are forced to act first for the next three streets.
Since you decided to mix it up with the LJ and Button, calling shows weakness. I would have raised to $17 (3x the raise + $2 for the one limper ahead of you.) That might have convinced the Button to fold, but LJ would most certainly go along with the second best starting hand.
The flop totally destroys you, even though it looks like a miracle catch. LJ is going nowhere with the set of Kings. 
Your $15 bet on the flop makes sense, but LJ probably made a mistake by only raising you to $30. I would have raised to at least $60.
All-in-all - not your best hand, but then, you've asked for comments and I believe you got good advice from Station_Master and Sopt.
Hope I contributed a bit as well.
Best of luck at the tables.
