The Pike: Ships in the Night

By: Erik Schubach

Narrated by: Allyson Voller

The playfully evil sisters, Zoey and Eve, play matchmaker from their bakery, The Pike, in Pike Place Market in Seattle.

Ligaya is a quantum physicist working in a research lab at the University of Washington. She is seduced by the numbers and math with a drive that excludes everything in her life including social interactions. Emotions have always been hard for her to understand or express.

When she meets an ex-firefighter, Allison, she finds herself fighting to understand all the new feelings rising inside. Allison has a primal drive to help and protect people and Ligaya's innocence is like a drug to her.

With the the non-subtle meddling from the women at the Pike, Ligaya and Allison find themselves pulled inexorably to each other.

(The Pike series is set in the same world as Music of the Soul and London Harmony, and can be heard as a standalone book.)

Pike

If you like books that makes you fall in love with the character's than this is the book for you.

Excellent Audio!

I loved Ships in the Night. Book 1 in The Pike series. What's not to like? Any book that features smart women getting together is great. Ligaya and Allison are great main characters. Allyson Voller does an excellent job with the narration.

cute love story!

this was a light, fun romance about a firefighter who had been injured on the job and therefore cannot fight fires anymore, and a genius computer science who has trouble understanding social cues. A woman who helps run a local coffee shop plays Matchmaker with them, because otherwise their paths would never cross. But they turn out to complement each other nicely.
