I’d say I need a shower after finishing this book, but honestly? I’m not sure if a shower would cleanse me or just send me spiraling deeper into feral flashbacks. And honestly? I wouldn’t complain. If Tink and Hook were in that shower… throw in Geaton too, and I might never come out.
This might be the most plot-heavy book in the series so far, and I loved every second of it. Tink has completely stolen my heart—more than any other character we’ve read. Maybe I’m biased because I relate to her on such a deep level, but watching her actively work through her PTSD hit me hard. I hated how much I loved seeing her struggle and grow, especially the way Hook used BDSM not just as a tool for pleasure but as a way to help her heal.
There’s something incredibly raw and beautiful about the way kink is portrayed here—it’s honest, vulnerable, and empowering. I devoured every page.
Time for a break because I can read these stories forever.

A new spin on the dynamic between Peter Pan, Hook, and Tink. Tink has been living in fear after finally escaping an abusive relationship with Peter Pan... but her protection has run out and now she has to face Peter again. Peter will kill her, and thats not even the worst that would happen to her if she meets him again. Salvation comes in the form of Hook... who offers Tink a deal: marry him and he’ll kill Peter for her. Yet Tink despises Hook almost as much as Peter... yet he’s the lesser of the two devils. Hook, despite everything, is very much in love with Tink, but he also needs her as bait to trap Peter. Now Tink and Hook must re-evaluate their relationship and Hook has to find a way to convince Tink that he is just what she needs, that he understands her and can take care of her, all the while Peter is still waiting to snatch her up again. I read this as a stand-alone despite it being part of the Wicked Villains series by Katee Roberts (yes characters from all the other books are also in here and while it would be better to read them all in order it was a fine reading experience reading this as a stand alone).
So I think the entire reason for the fake marriage is to be a middle finger to Peter so that Hook can prove to everyone that he’s strong enough to take over the territory.
