It was ok. 
I guess it's big on booktok, but I don't like booktok. I bought them because the covers were pretty. 
I should know that if booktok is hyping it up, it means it's not that great. 

I ended up listening to it on audible plus while I was doing stuff so I only half paid attention. It seems like this is related to Peter Pan maybe, but I never read it or saw it so maybe it's not. I think this series is loosely based on fairy tales or something. So it's an interesting premise, but there was something that just didn't do it for me. 

The sex was hot. And when she told everyone at the table he popped her cherry I legit lol'ed. He's a bad guy with a sad past but he's dumber than a box of rocks. She's sweet and loyal but naive as hell. And I think they are siblings. No I'm playing. It's just so strange at the end. 

The audio was pretty good. The narrators were new to me and I liked them both. Dual narration done by Felicity Munroe and Rupert Hawthorne. I'm a sucker for a British guy talking dirty and saying pet names.
