He wants revenge, but he wants her more. Once Upon A Time, there was a little boy. His belly full of laughter, his life full of joy. Until one day, something changed; stripped his innocence away. The hole inside making space for the devil to come and play. His dreams gone forever, he grew up way too fast. An endless night of crocodiles, and watches made of glass. He grew into a villain, the taste of vengeance on his tongue. Craving to make his enemies pay for the misdeeds they had done. Instead he found a darling girl, and refused to let her go. For what better way to make the man pay, than to steal his little shadow. *Hooked is a full-length, complete standalone and the first in The Never After Series: A collection of fractured fairy tales where the villains get the happy ever after. This is a DARK Contemporary romance (not fantasy) featuring mature themes and content that may not be suitable for all audiences. Reader discretion is advised.*

A contemporary, non fantasy reimagining of Peter Pan where Hook gets the girl? I was so excited about the premise of this! As with any retelling or reimagining, I love finding those little nods to the original and I felt like they were cleverly done in this book, given there wasn’t anything magical or fantastical with the contemporary setting. However, I didn’t really care for either of our MCs and both their romance and the entire plot felt rushed. There was so much potential but I feel like a lot of the story was ignored just to focus on the smut.
