I liked their chemistry and their encounters always had something intense about them. How the romance between Hook and Peter came to be and progressed later made actually not much sense to me but I just rolled with it. If he believes it’s one-sided, he’s fooling himself. He says it’s me who always loved the game, the fight, the adrenaline. I particularly enjoyed how the author managed to make the story feel magical at the beginning and later in the book when the story takes place in Neverland. Specific content warnings can be found on the author’s website.įirst I want to say: I enjoyed this a lot! Especially considering this is a debut novel. This Peter Pan retelling is a contemporary fantasy with most of the story taking place in the modern world and contains trigger warnings, high angst, and a HEA. He’s a star-Neverland’s sun-and I don’t care if I get burned.Ĭaptain Hook is very much the villain we all love in this standalone MM dark romance. The old Peter Pan has died, and a new one’s risen from his ashes. The fate of Neverland hangs in the balance.

Making him remember isn’t going to be easy, and not just because I hate him like sin, just like all the sinful thoughts he inspires. One, Peter Pan has no memory of who he really is. However, when I find him, there are two problems. I don’t want Pan back, but he’s the only one who can stop it. A threat looms here, a shadow devouring the island. Despite the Jolly Roger being anchored in a layer of ice, I’m not yet willing to give up this perfect, Peter Panless Neverland. It’s been fourteen years since he left, since Neverland’s star died out, since a blanket of frost fell over the island.
