A unique retelling of Peter Pan with a handful of references to the source material. You don't have to be a fan of Peter Pan to love this story.

Overall this book just wasn’t for me. I don’t vibe with the writing style and I came away from it feeling the characters were underdeveloped. For me, it almost felt like reading fan fiction, and while I’m not opposed to a spicy book, the lack of connection I felt between the main characters left them feeling a bit unfulfilling. 
So, yeah, I didn’t hate it, but it won’t be taking a permanent place on my bookshelf.

Read it, just do it! This book is so well written I️ cant even put my thoughts into words. The characters are so fucked up in the best ways possible. The plot twists are insane, the story is so well developed it’s not like any other romance book. This had amazing romance but the plot was what very sucked me in.
