So dark and spicy! The writing is extremely well done. Character development fantastic! I couldn't stop reading, I had to know how it was going to play out. The ending is perfect. Also, mmy husband will definitely benefit from me reading this series. Hahaha.

I enjoyed this revisions fairytale quite a lot, though the amount of secrets got a little overwhelming at the end.   I did have much of the lot worked out, but it was still enjoyable.  The spice is where this book excels though…James and Wendy are hot!

Whewwwww, I could not have cared less about any of the characters, or the plot, or any aspect of this story. Literally trudged my way through to the end 😬

This was a very good example of a dark romance, and it made some use of the names and characters from the source (Peter Pan), but it deviated too much from the original for my taste.  Steamy romance and very well written, met all my expectations for the genre. While there are plenty of dark elements, the book overall uses those for atmosphere more than plot or character. I definitely applaud the author for including those dark elements without using them gratuitously.
