The characters are complex, with a background that really explains where they are now, they have good arcs, and overall this book has a decent plot. I predicted part of the final plot, but not all, so I still got surprised.
Mostly, I liked the fact that Wendy wasn't completely removed from managing her own life - okay, maybe after what happened she didn't have much of a choice, but still.

Its dark, its sexy, its consensual, but there are elements about it that can be triggering for some readers.

Depictions of child abuse, P*dophelia, and child death are more vague allusions than explicitly depictedkylasmv15's review against another edition

Hooked has a medium pace with a fast build in the second half. There's spicy scenes scattered all throughout but a good chunk of the first half is setting up the major plot points and background for the story. It took me about 4 days to finish but had I not been interrupted by life I'm sure I could have got through it in 2. I loved reading through and seeing all the subtle (and not so subtle) nods to the original Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie.
Notable Tropes are mafia, found family, Touch her and die, and morally grey... everyone?
Content Warnings that stood out to me - Kidnapping, Choking, Torture, Murder, Childhood SA, Abuse.
The SA isn't graphically detailed but it is very much there. All the rest? Definitely graphic.
