riverass's review against another edition

i read this as an audiobook and i don’t like when they read sex scenes out loud it’s awkward or it’s just that i’ve never read one before so ☺️ and nothing was happening literally it’s like okay we get it the male lead is evil and he gets what he wants okay… and wendy is okay igs like i feel bad for her but she keeps talking about her innocence and it’s just a tad annoying. also i’ve never read dark romance before and it’s not this authors fault like i went into this blind and i was like woah wtf is going on bc — lil spoiler — the male lead is talking about fing her on her fathers dead corpse like what. i was looking for a easy romance to just listen to in the shower so it’s my fault for not doing my research too 😋

Holy shit was this a massive disappointment. I love Hook retellings and I loved some of the details that were woven in that make it a clear Peter Pan retelling (NevAirLand as an airline company name deserves a commendation!) but Hook was an epic disappointment as a character and Wendy was a whole new level of frustrating. There are better dark Peter Pan retellings out there, don’t waste your time. The author is clearly too vanilla to be writing something like this

A unique retelling of Peter Pan with a handful of references to the source material. You don't have to be a fan of Peter Pan to love this story.

Lovedddd this book. Read it faster than any book I’ve ever read. It kept me “hooked” the entire time. There were no slow parts what so ever in this book!

To be fair, I don't typically like spicy romance. The story itself was great. Truly wanting to know how it all played out saved it from a DNF and a lower rating from me

Looooove this book. Could not put it down. I listened to the audiobook (love Hook’s accent) when I wasn’t reading the physical book. If you’re a fan of Peter Pan then you’ll appreciate the Easter eggs hidden in the book that bring a sense of nostalgia while reading. Made me feel all the feels.
Spice level: 5/5
