About this listen

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.

If you like smut this book/series is worth a read. Honestly the storyline is a little weak. I was expecting a dark take on Peter Pan with the same exciting, magical storyline the childhood version gives you but completely twisted in a dark way. However it ends up being a pretty basic story based around Wendy’s descendent being stuck, fxcked and out of luck on this island with pan and his lost boys. The story line is kinda slow and drags across the series but the smut is the only thing that got me rushing through to finish so I guess it depends what you like.

Smutty smut smut

A good, dark twist. A short listen but well read with not bad pacing. This is definitely not a slow-burn, and the MC is up for just about anything. I'm hooked and about to smash out the remaining books just about as fast as Winnie started railing the Lost Boys. This novel is not for someone who wants a well written smutty retelling with deep characters and world building, it is however a bit of fun and a good listen/read.

Smutty fun

Love the female and Peter Pan narrator. The cass narrator microphone is awful, it’s like it was recorded in a cardboard box I can barely hear him. Lucky he only has a few chapters.
Awesome book really enjoyed it. Very spicy.
