Summary

In "Science in Arcady," Grant Allen masterfully intertwines the realms of science and nature within the idyllic setting of Arcady, a fictionalized pastoral landscape. Utilizing a richly descriptive literary style, Allen presents a collection of essays that explore the interplay between scientific principles and the bucolic life, impressive for its vivid imagery and accessible language. Through his examination of topics such as evolution and ecology, he invites readers into a dialogue about the natural world, often situated against the backdrop of late 19th-century scientific discourse. This work is a compelling reflection of the Victorian fascination with the natural sciences, deftly combining personal anecdotes with empirical observations. Grant Allen, a noted Canadian author and advocate for scientific understanding, was deeply influenced by the scientific advancements of his time. His background in biological sciences and his progressive views on nature not only shaped his literary endeavors but also provided a fresh lens through which he approached his subjects. Allen's commitment to blending creative writing with scientific inquiry speaks to his broader aim of democratizing knowledge and fostering a deeper appreciation for the natural world. "Science in Arcady" is a must-read for those seeking to bridge the gap between science and the humanities. Readers will find it an enlightening journey that celebrates the beauty of nature while encouraging critical thinking about the ways humans engage with their environment. Allen's work remains relevant as it prompts us to consider our relationships with the world around us, making it an essential addition to any literary or scientific library.

    "The first night I saw you I fought every emotion, every instinct and I was a fool for doing it. The moment I laid eyes on you I should have claimed you, thrown you over my shoulder and brought you up to our room to mate and mark you. You should already be wearing my mark and officially be known as the Luna of this pack but I didn't do any of that. Instead, I walked away like a fucking idiot and worst of all I hurt you when I had no right to. Every day I wish I could go back to that day and change how I reacted but I can't, and so now I have to pay for my behaviour and that means waiting until you are ready to accept me as your mate and my Luna, until you are ready to wear my mark."
 
In Book 2, secrets about Tony’s mother, Adrian’s fate, and the rogue Alpha’s disappearance begin to unravel—revealing a truth far darker than they ever imagined. As Alpha Nicholas and Bonnie’s bond deepens, they must face not only their own fears and desires, but a growing darkness that threatens to tear them apart.

    They came in and wiped out my pack, leaving me an orphan at the age of fifteen, but then Alpha Declan came in and saved me, bringing me into his own pack. I've been living with the Storm River pack for three years now, training and learning how to fight, so when the time comes, I can kill the Alpha that took my family and pack away from me.But what do you do when you start to fall for the one who saved you to begin with? The one that took you under his wing when you had nothing left? The one who kissed you first, and made you feel things that you didn't feel before? I shouldn't be with him; he isn't my mate. I've yet to scent my mate, but Declan is too delicious to pass up. He's already saved me once, but can he save me from falling for him when I know my Goddess-given mate is out there somewhere?
 
I feel us moving and then I’m being placed on the hood of his Tesla. This puts me so my core is up against his hardness, and oh my Goddess, he feels monstrous! It’s a good thing that I’m not his mate, because I don’t think I’d be able to take it. It doesn’t stop me from rubbing against it, though, as tingles begin to form, and I moan.“That’s it, sweetheart, rub yourself against me and come for me. I want to see what you look like when you fall apart in my arms.” His command washes over me and I come instantly.
