In this dark and twisted reimagining of Peter Pan, Emily McIntire serves up a fractured fairy tale with a side of vengeance and desire. This was my first dive into the dark romance genre, and WOW. I was intrigued by the mystery/plot, and I liked the character development of Wendy and James.

What I loved:
1. Wendy discovering her inner strength

This was fun. Nothing super-deep or impactful, but enjoyable. As long as you temper your expectations and gloss over some of the elements of Peter Pan that don’t full fit into the story, you’ll have a good time. Don’t think about it too much.

Sometimes, you’re just in the mood for a dark fractured fairy tale. And this one did what I needed it to.

EDIT: After reading the second in this series, I bumped my rating up a star.

This is my first time reading this author and I have seen a lot about one of her books on booktok so I thought I would give the series a try. I know they are a standalone series but I try to read book in order so I did start with book one. I like the peter pan like theme but on the darker side. In part of the book I found things rushed and I other part more drawn out. It made for a perfect way for the book by the time it ended. I enjoyed this book that I plan to read more in the series. I feel it is going to be great.
