About the book...

Am I going to get lucky? Maybe if the hunky nerd I met yesterday takes me up on my invite to attend High Five's St. Paddy's Day party ...

Rachel Wagner, who's sworn off dating apps, is the last single one in her friend group. Focused on running her thriving cleaning business in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, the thirty-one-year-old is caught off guard when she stumbles upon a bearded nerd while cleaning her biggest client's lake house.

Patrick Nowak, a reclusive cat-loving hacker, prefers code to conversation and planned to spend the St. Patrick's Day weekend out of Chicago enjoying a digital detox at his friend's lake house. But when Rachel, a confident brunette who seems way out of his league, invites him to a local bar's St. Paddy's party, his anxiety just might prevent him from taking her up on the offer.

In a game of attraction and vulnerability, neither of them is prepared for just how much their lives can change in a day.

(This is Book #3 in an interconnected series. It is encouraged, but not essential, to read Santa's Coming and Cupid's Shot before reading Shamrock Kisses.) Romance Tropes: Instant Connection, Strangers to Lovers, Small Town, Holiday Romance, Younger Man, Nerdy MMC

AWARENESS TOUR: Lisbeth and the Littering Ladybugs by P.E. Shadrick, Illustrated by Maya Penzlik - REVIEW + GIVEAWAY!

Today, we join The Children's Book Review for an AWARENESS TOUR already in progress featuring a storybook that shares the importance of manners in a loving, and creative way. Curious? You should be because this story is darling, and the illustrations just make it even more of a treasure! Ladies and gents, ladybugs if you happen to be around as well, let's take a closer look between the epages of today's featured title...

Lisbeth and the Littering Ladybugs

P.E. Shadrick

Illustrated by

Maya Penzlik

About the book...

Do you know what happens at night when you sleep? The ladybugs come out to play!

Lisbeth, a lively six-year-old, wakes up one morning to discover a tangled mess in her hair. Her grandmother tells her the story of how a group of playful ladybugs is the cause of all the knots in her hair. Through Grandma’s fanciful story of the ladybugs’ glorious grand gala, Lisbeth learns the lesson of how shared responsibility can be both necessary and fun.

Inspired by the stories of P.E. Shadrick’s own grandmother, this charming story comes to life through the vibrant watercolor illustrations of Montreal artist, Maya Penzlik.

Available in hardback and a special expanded artwork edition (11″ x 8.5″), as well as paperback (8.5″ x 8.5″), Kindle, and digital editions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

For those of you with longish, long, or VERY long hair, you know the conundrum. How on earth does your hair manage to get tangled in the night when you've simply been asleep? Lisbeth has the same question, but her grandmother has the best answer I think I've come across. The tangles and knots are the remnants of a ladybug party! That's right. A party thrown by dance loving ladybugs that may be delightful, great at planning and throwing parties, but perhaps not so good at the cleaning up part, hence the tangled morning mess. Good thing Grandma has the patience and kindness to help her work through the mess. Even better still is that Lisbeth sees her actions for the kindness they are and realizes she can help make it less of a mess, or perhaps prevent it from happening at all with a little nightly prep work on her part (and a PLEASE DON'T LITTER note to the little ladybugs!).

It's a great way to explain one of life's little mysteries, while showing little ones how lending a helping hand to others does more than get the job done...it warms the heart. With lovely illustrations throughout that really bring the story to life, this is a tale that kiddos will be reaching for at bedtime as well as when they feel the need to jump, jive, and dance the day away!
