Peter pan for adults! This is book 2 in a series and it's action packed with a brutal cliff hanger ending. The bonding in this book was cute and there is a tiny bit more depth and character growth in this one than the first. It is still erotica though, so don't expect anything very deep or meaningful - It's more smut than plot. That being said, the storyline is stiill good and it is an interesting 18+ take on Peter Pan.

Pretty much rinse and repeat of the first book. The book is mostly sex right up until the end when everything pops off. Vane gives in so Winnie has her whole harem now. I had to take a little off the rating because of Cherry here. Completely reducing her to jealousy over Winnie is such a boring take. I’m still going to read the next one though since they’re such quick reads and I want to catch up on my reading goal for the year.

Still a ton of spice (borderlining on porn) but much more of a plot than the previous book.

If Cherry has no supports then I'm dead..

I support her rights and wrongs (my girl can't do anything wrong in my eyes)
