Summary

In 'Ships That Pass in the Night' by Beatrice Harraden, the reader is transported to the late 19th century where the novel explores themes of fleeting connections and missed opportunities. Harraden's prose is characterized by its sentimentality and romanticism, making the book a staple in the literary context of Victorian literature. The story follows two strangers who meet on a train and form a deep bond despite knowing very little about each other, highlighting the unpredictability of human relationships. Through intricate character development and emotional depth, Harraden weaves a tale that is both heartwarming and bittersweet. Beatrice Harraden, a prominent figure in the literary circles of her time, drew inspiration from her own experiences and observations to create 'Ships That Pass in the Night'. As a feminist and social activist, Harraden's writing often reflected her progressive views on gender roles and societal norms, adding layers of depth to her narratives. I highly recommend 'Ships That Pass in the Night' to readers who enjoy poignant romances and insightful character studies. Beatrice Harraden's masterpiece is a timeless classic that delves into the complexities of human connections and serves as a profound exploration of love and loss.

    Lost. Stolen. Forgotten… until the Alphabits step in. 
    A Team A.L.P.H.A. spinoff series. 
    Sam Remington, former leader of Team Beta, has a new dream: to lead a team whose sole purpose is to protect those most vulnerable—shifter pups. 
    His new mate, Dean, shares his passion. As a child counselor, Dean is all too familiar with the darker side of the world when it comes to pups. If Sam can rescue them, Dean will do his best to help fix them. 
    Sanctioned by Team Alpha’s bossman, the great Ray Perkins himself, Alphabits is Sam’s baby. This new hand-picked team consists of five highly-trained wolf alphas—and one bumbling bear who couldn’t take a hint. As always with a new team, personalities will clash. But at the end of the day, they all share a common goal help lost, missing, and hurting children—starting with the needy wolf pup who lives across the street from Sam and Dean. 
    The Alphabits aren’t vigilantes. These former soldiers and officers of the law have to do things by the book—even when it tears them apart to do so. But once all their ducks are in a row, the bad guys had better beware! You do not want this team of protective alphas on your tail. 
    This is the first in a new series in the Team A.L.P.H.A. world, but can definitely be read as a stand-alone novel. You can expect to find naughty, knotty scenes of steamy passion, along with a lot of potty-mouth language and some violence. Prepare your box of tissues and lock up your heart, because this book contains a fluffy little wolf pup who’s about to steal it away. HEA definitely included, intended for 18+ readers only. Seriously, would you expect anything less from Susi Hawke and Crista Crown?

    An injured witch determined to find his fated mate and a wolf shifter determined to avoid commitment, no matter how hot the attraction. 
    Brandon Wineford has sworn off relationships because dating humans is too hard—they can’t be trusted with the truth—and finding a shifter he actually likes is impossible. But with his friends in the Outcast Pack finding love, he’s feeling the bite of going home alone. When his best friend asks him to help out behind the bar at a fated mate-finding event, he reluctantly agrees. 
    Finding a mate has been at the top of rugby player Ross Starling’s to do list since he first learned he’s a witch. He never turns up a chance to kiss a shifter. This will be his third official mate-seeking event. Some might say he’s a mate chaser or that he’s desperate, but he knows there is someone for him. 
    When he sees Brandon wearing a pink ‘kiss me’ shirt, that is exactly what he wants to do. 
    Brandon has other ideas. He doesn’t believe in forever, and he doesn’t want to risk his heart on a witch. And if they don’t kiss, they can’t become mates. But there are plenty of other things they can do… 
    Wolf Mate is a steamy standalone romance in the Familiar Mates world. It features a grumpy events manager and a hopeful witch who wants nothing more than to find the one he is meant to be with.
