what a fun and different twist!

I REALLY sunk my teeth into the story! What a fun and different twist that had me reading this book in ONE DAY!! The plot, the spice, the characters… it all fit together so perfectly. I can’t wait to dive into the other books in the Never after series!

I half expected Wendy to yell "I'm not a girl....I'm a Woman!!!" during the final act. Girl has daddy issues for sure.

I’ve read several Disney retellings and they all have their own twists I am very entertained by. This is a modern dark romance where James (Hook) meets Wendy and wants to use her for his revenge plan against Peter (Wendy’s father).

Pros:
- I see you Mr. James Barrie/Hook aka Rico Suave
description
- This is just what was promised, modern romance, spice, and everyone is not so nice.
- There was one plot twist I didn’t see coming.

Cons:
- I thought it was peculiar how the author decided to tie in the crocodile and watch as trauma in this book. I mean I’m sure there are many ways she could have done that, so I just felt it was an odd choice.
- The villain was pretty obvious.

Overall I felt this was a nice standalone contemporary dark romance retelling of Peter Pan. I’ll be reading more books in the series.

Um WOW! Definitely not what I was expecting when I when to start this, and I’m so happy with how spicy this was. Fast paced, easy to get through. I love the relationship between them both. It does get dark, and there are a lot of emotions. If you enjoy extreme spicy romance it’s a recommended.
