This book had a lot of potential. Such an interesting premise about Peter Pan. But, it was much too short and there wasn’t enough time to develop anything. The characters, their relationships, the plot… just everything was completely lacking. I feel like this entire story was rushed and it didn’t do this cool concept any justice. The writing was less than mediocre too. The characters were pretty much just interested in sex, which would have been fine if it had been done well. I like reverse harems, but I can’t even say the steamy scenes were good enough to overlook everything else. It was very dark, which again, is great when it’s done well. This book ended on a cliff hanger and I doubt I’ll read the sequel.
