Summary

The stories were all wrong—Hook was never the villain.

For two centuries, all of the Darling women have disappeared on their 18th birthday. Sometimes they’re gone for only a day, some a week or a month. But they always return broken. 

Now, on the afternoon of my 18th birthday, my mother is running around the house making sure all the windows are barred and the doors locked. 

But it’s pointless. 

Because when night falls, he comes for me. And this time, the Never King and the Lost Boys aren’t willing to let me go. 

NOTE: The Never King is a reimagining of Peter and Wendy. Characters have been aged up for this darker, grittier version. If you like your enemies to lovers romance with hot, ruthless, morally gray love interests, you’ll enjoy The Never King. You can expect hate kissing, fighting, bickering, and "touch her and I’ll unalive you" vibes. Book one ends on a cliff.

Please check the author's website for CWs.

I couldn't finish due to the sexual violence. Needs sexual assault trigger warnings adding.

Gripping and Stimulating

Easy listen, flat story

Pick this book if you want an enjoyable dark romance book and are OK with the trigger warnings. Then you'll enjoy it. Easy to listen to. Don't expect a well written story or background or depth to the characters. It's quite shallow on those things. However I enjoyed it a lot!

Not worth it

Dont waste your money on this! Lazy writing, no worldbuilding, the sexual parts are bad and dont get me started on the horrible voice of one of the twins… dont understand the choice of using so many voiceactors and still have them reading each others lines. Not worth the money or time spent listening.

Slutty Wendy

Slutty Wendy getting it on with lost boys and Peter. No real story, abduction, followed with multiple sexual partners with kink. (Not much detail, so don’t get too excited. Ha). Very disappointing all round.

Horrific

Absolutely horrendous, lazy, it’s basically badly written porn scene that someone decided to quickly slap the name Peter Pan on but has no connection to the story whatsoever. No world building, no info on characters, waste of money

Not as good as I've heard

If you are looking for a dark smut book, sure buy it. If you want a good story don't.
it's just not that good.

It really should have a warning because im sure it could trigger some people because of the abuse..

I've heard so much about this book and I feel like it fell short in every way.. I'm not gonna listen to the rest in the series.
