[ETA, September 2022: Rating raised from 4.25 to 4.5 and then 5 stars. I’m indecisive, basically, but I’ve realized that I absolutely love Tink and Hook, so here we are.]

My favorite in the series so far! I loved Tink, I loved her friendships with the other Underworld women, and I even grew to quite like Hook. I enjoyed seeing their relationship progress. There were even some especially amusing scenes that made me cackle/snort out loud, so props to Katee for that. She’s quickly rising up on my list of favorite romance authors. <3

If I had one complaint, it would be that this story seemed way too similar to that of the first book, Desperate Measures. The girl’s inner battle of simultaneously hating and being horny for the guy. The guy falling in love with the girl even though he thinks he’s awful, doesn’t deserve her, etc. And the whole shtick with Tink, Hook and Pan felt incredibly reminiscent of the one in DM with Jasmine, Jafar and Ali, right down to the way the final showdown unfolded. So, not the biggest fan of that. I’m really not into authors recycling plots. ://
[Update: yes, technically, this is true, but I don’t care anymore. This has become one of those books where I just love it, even if it has flaws.]

Ending this with my favorite quote:
“‘I knew you were a fucking rat, but I didn’t expect you to be so content with sloppy seconds. My territory, my men, even my woman. It’s beneath you.’
‘She was earlier, yes.’”
[cackling in the distance]

Representation:
  • full cast of queer polyamorous and/or polysexual characters (one protagonist is also a POC, and there are Black side characters)
  • FMM side throuple
