Fated Bears: Complete Series Box Set
Jasmine Wylder - 2018
Unless the neighbor is the extremely hot, mysterious billionaire Isaias Durant with his rock-hard body that Rebecca can’t take her eyes off of. There is no way that this piece of art is attracted to her…the shy virgin. Or is there? Book Two: The Bear Shifter's Second Chance She doesn’t need that sort of relationship in her life, right? It's hard to keep that in mind when Adela Choi sees Marcus Haught drive up on his motorcycle, his tattoos rippling over his hard muscles. So utterly mouth-watering that she can hardly think around him. Not to mention his animal side, that used to make Adela howl. But she has to stay strong, for her and her little toddler. People just don't change, and she isn't about to be hurt again. Book Three: The Bear Shifter's Nanny It's not easy being a shifter without a clan. But finally, Jasmine Rowland has a job at least. Well, being a nanny is not what she had dreamed of, but it pays the bills. Also, there are worse places to be than around that handsome Doctor Alava with his tight clothes, showing every vein and muscle of his body. But something is definitely wrong with him. What is he hiding? Book Four: The Bear Shifter's Baby Lori Rowlands is done with the loser boyfriends she’s always picked; the kind that would play for a while and then leave her high and dry. She wants something sweet but passionate, where they can count on one another in a crisis. And that means her new boss, the rich, delicious lawyer Clifford Boone, is off limits. Or, isn’t he? A little play can’t hurt anybody, right? Book Five: The Bear Shifter's Mate Serena Boone always knew it. Being the new matriarch of her bear shifter clan comes with big responsibility. Nothing she couldn’t handle alone, but now she has to be protected during the transition of power. But why does her protector have to be one hot and sexy masterpiece? He can’t be her mate. Mates are chosen in traditional fights. AUTHOR´S NOTE: This is a collection of paranormal romances with HEA, so no cliff-hangers!

Peer Gynt
Henrik Ibsen - 1867
Based on Norwegian folklore and Ibsen’s own imaginative inventions, the play relates the roguish life of the world-wandering Peer, who finds wealth and fame — but never happiness — although he is redeemed by love in the end. As the play opens the young farmer attends a wedding and meets Solveig, the woman who is eventually to be his salvation. However, the rascally Peer then kidnaps the bride and later abandons her in the wilderness. This dismal performance is followed by a string of adventures (many of which do not reflect well on Peer) in many lands. After these soul-chilling exploits, an old and embittered Peer returns to Norway, eventually finding solace in the arms of the faithful Solveig. Like other early Ibsen plays, such as Brand (1865) and Emperor and Galilean (1873), the work is imbued with poetic mysticism and romanticism, and in Peer we find a rebellious central character in search of an ultimate truth that always seems just out of reach. In this sense Peer can be seen as an alter ego of Ibsen himself, whose lifelong search for artistic and moral certainties resulted in the great later plays (Hedda Gabler, The Wild Duck, An Enemy of the People, etc.) upon which his reputation chiefly rests. This rich, poetic version of Peer Gynt is considered the standard translation.
