This series just continues to pull you in with each book.

In book three Peter finally has his shadow back but he’s not the only one getting use to having a shadow. Darling somehow ended up claiming the death shadow and is trying to learn to control her new rising anger and powers. As the Fae queen calls in for more backup from Vane’s brother the crocodile. The Lost Boys, Peter, and Wendy are all left fighting for the ones they love each other. Shadows are relinquished and given to new owners as the dynamics of Neverland change Peter learns more about who he truly is.

Feels like the most plot-heavy of the series, lightest on erotica but moves so fast you almost don’t notice!
Note on incest:

Spoiler

the twins have sex together but not with each other.

Yo, this book was so good. I grew up with an unhealthy peter pan obsession and now i suppose it has gone into my adulthood as well. And i do think that I am okay with that hahaahaha. But really, I just started to read these kinds of books and I am severely hooked. Def recommend!

What a clusterfuck. Seriously the first two were amazing compared to this mess. A) there is not much spice, B) plot lines, while they are a continuation, are just magically resolved, C) The epilogue?  The series should have ended at book 2.
