This is definitely better then the first one.

“You’re a wonder, Darling.”

The Dark One was much better then to The Never King because in this one, Peter Pan is close to finally locating his shadows.
Whereas Winnie has found a new forever home. This book begins where The Never King ended.

In this book, we get to see how much Winnie means for the guys. They never expected her to be their companion:

There she is giving me orders again.
And I'm the asshole that's beginning to follow them.


Someone they didn't know they needed, and she has forever changed their og plans.

I like that we get to see multiple POVs of different characters, like in the first book. Whether they are enemies, allies, heroes, etc; characters like Cherry and Captain Hook.
I'm looking forward to the third book, which will again leave me with that cliffhanger

  dark Winnie.

Again this is a RH.

Again, without the spice it wouldn’t be worth reading. Although the plot idea is cool and much more developed than in the first book, it really is just erotica with a sprinkle of fantasy.
