Everyone had the story wrong—Hook was never the villain. For 200 years, every Darling woman has vanished on her 18th birthday, sometimes for days, sometimes for months, but always returning broken. Now it’s Winnie's turn, and as her mother scrambles to lock every door & bar every window, she knows it’s useless. Because when night falls, he will come for Winnie—and this time, the Never King and his Lost Boys don’t plan on letting her go.

Did a combo of audio & Kindle.

"Spectacular, give me 14 of them right now." 10/10, no notes, *chef's kiss* - this was INSANE. I was blushing, giggling, kicking my feet - I will never look at Peter Pan the same way again, but it's a price I'm more than willing to pay. I literally started this because I was in a slump and wanted a change of genre - BOY, DID I GET WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. And only 5, maybe 6, hours on audio? I was so incredibly bummed to see a wait for the sequel on Libby, but I shall be patient! I'll probably start it on Kindle (included on KU).

If you work with me or are a family member - you didn't see this. I never read it. Don't ask me what it's about.
