He wants revenge, but he wants her more.

Once upon a time, there was a little boy.

His belly full of laughter, his life full of joy.

Until one day, something changed; stripped his innocence away.

The hole inside making space for the devil to come and play.

His dreams gone forever, he grew up way too fast.

An endless night of crocodiles, and watches made of glass.

He grew into a villain, the taste of vengeance on his tongue.

Craving to make his enemies pay for the misdeeds they had done.

Instead he found a darling girl, and refused to let her go.

For what better way to make the man pay, than to steal his little shadow.

Hooked is a full-length, complete standalone in the Never After series: a collection of dark romances where the villain gets the girl. It is not a literal retelling. It is a dark, contemporary romance (not a fantasy) featuring mature themes and content that may not be suitable for all audiences. Listener discretion is advised.

Story lacked for me and I didn’t feel a connection to any of the characters. Also the fake accents threw me off.

Not for me

Predictable story line, it was okay. I slipped to the end after chapter 35. I didn’t care to listen to the rest. Epilogue tells you the ending

Eh

The way this author incorporated the details from Peter Pan without doing a remake was amazing! I loved seeing all the little details and nods to the story but making them completely different, like pixie dust being a drug or the Jolly Roger being a bar. The thing I was most impressed by though was the way the author made me love and root for Hook! Never in my life would I have thought I would love a version of Captain Hook yet here I am!

I thought the narrators did a really good job bringing these characters to life. The performance overall was really good but there were moments where it was almost easy to lose focus/tune it out and I found myself having to restart a few chapters multiple times. I loved Rupert's version of Hook but I also really liked Felicity's version which I feel is rare for me. Normally I'm not a big fan of women doing men's voices, especially when its dual narration, but I thought she did a good job. I would honestly listen to her narrate a full book by herself.

I absolutely loved the story overall and I can already tell it will be one I listen to many more times in the future.

This is the kind of retelling I love

I love this storyline. It was unexpected and the twist and turns are just perfect. Kept pulling me in and I couldn’t stop. On to the next book.

Must listen!!!
