Cover Reveal: Until Jude by KL Shandwick

 


★✩★ COVER REVEAL ★✩★

UNTIL JUDE

Book 1 in the PULSETUNES ROCK GODS SERIES

Genre | Trope: Contemporary Romance | Rockstar Romance | Broody Rock Star | Alfa rockstar

Release Date: March 4

Hosted by DS Book Promotions


Blurb:

Jude Collymore wasn't a player. He played drums, but he never played games—especially with women.

Which is why the broody rock star made it clear he had no interest in long-term commitments. 

It wasn’t his fault he had women falling all over him despite that. It was a consequence of both the rock star lifestyle and the fact he knew exactly what he was doing in the bedroom. 

As far as Jude was concerned, with his band and a steady stream of admirers, he had it made. But that soon changed when bandmate and best friend, Levi, received some life-changing information that could disrupt the band's current tour. 

Offering his support immediately, Jude very quickly found himself tested with a connection he found impossible to ignore. Esther Milligan should never have been on his radar, and although he fought their attraction the pull toward her was strong. 

Add to that a stupid challenge that became a bizarre, forbidden relationship and suddenly his single, carefree status was under question and the consequences were career ending. 

Now, Jude has to decide where his loyalties lie and where his heart belongs…

Blog Tour: Please Explain Vaccines to Me: Because I HATE SHOTS! by Laurie Zelinger PH.D

 



Shots, injections, needles, and vaccines-whatever their purpose, they all hurt. More than half of children in the 6-17 year-old range report a strong fear of needles. Nearly 25% of adults do as well. This book is for those families who cringe at the thought of getting one. 

For some children, getting a shot is a major ordeal. Ramped-up anxiety can lead to tantrums, meltdowns, outbursts and even fainting. That 30-second experience can be a nightmare for parents for and nursing staff alike. This resource will help to improve that dreaded scenario.

The book opens with an engaging story for children where rhyme, colorful illustrations and characters of diversity capture a child's interest as they identify with a girl who has similar fears. The children's section is followed by a comprehensive guide for parents and caregivers, based on empirical research as well as Dr. Zelinger's decades of experience as a child psychologist, where she offers information and explicit solutions to help deal with the anxiety surrounding this common medical procedure. 

Children will: 
• Identify with the main character and her fear of shots 
• Enjoy the colorful illustrations and happy story ending 
• Learn coping mechanisms to deal with frightening situations 
• Feel supported by their parents who will know how to help 
• Reduce their anxiety and become more cooperative during medical visits 

Parents/Caregivers will: 
• Understand the reasoning behind the fear of injections 
• Learn strategies to help their child before and during a medical visit 
• Be better able to comfort their child 

"Dr. Laurie Zelinger has done it again with another excellent child and parent-friendly book that helps to allay fears and empower families and professionals with the tools to help children develop healthy coping skills. Please Explain Vaccines to Me has it all: a relatable and simple yet engaging text in rhyme that is fun to read aloud, as well as colorful illustrations that provide an honest and relatable depiction of the emotions involved. As an experienced nurse and health educator, I see this book as a "must-have" resource for all caregivers, educators and health professionals." --Darlene Glasser, RN, MSEd 

"Please Explain Vaccines to Me is a book that every parent will want to read to their child before getting a shot. It demystifies vaccinations with language that a child will both understand and want to question further. It also gives both children and parents the language they need to express their anxiety about the process and the tools to lessen that anxiety. It gets 5 stars!" --Yael Kula, MSW, LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker)

Blog Tour: Randolph the Christmas Moose by Gerry Gibson


Randolph the Moose lives with his mother in the Great White North. After a chance encounter with the reindeer from Santa Claus' sleigh-pulling team, Randolph finds new joy in trail running as he trains to join the reindeer in Santa's flight school. But when the head elf places him at the workshop loading dock instead (due to his tremendous bulk), Randolph has to use his brains and work ethic to earn respect at his new job... and even save Christmas. 
 
Imagine Rudolf the red-nosed reindeer, except...  

- Randolph has a healthy self-image 

- Randolph has a more positive outlet for his feelings 

- Randolph runs, but not away from his problems 

- Randolph is pro-active, refusing to let Santa's workshop define him as a moose 

BE YOUR OWN MOOSE!
