Publisher's summary

Gwendolyn Mary Darling Carlisle's young life has been a saga of misfortune.

After a tragic accident unexpectedly took her parents, Gwen found herself the sole caregiver for her ailing sister. It's her eighteenth birthday, but with responsibilities weighing heavy, she struggles to find something worth celebrating. Everything in her life has fallen apart. That is until she finds a mysterious man in her bedroom.

Peter Pan has returned to the Darling estate. The boy from Neverland, who refused to grow up, has, in fact, grown into an alluring man. It's time for spring cleaning, and he's determined to bring a descendant of Wendy's back to Neverland with him.

Gwen is swept off her feet and across the veil to be engulfed in a fantastical world of mermaids, Fae, and Peter's new band of Lost Boys. As she gives herself over to the wonder of Neverland and the affections of Peter and his Lost Boys, she finds herself living out hedonistic fantasies that she could have only ever dreamed about.

But not everything is as it seems in Neverland. Her memories of home and her beloved sister are fading. A treasured family heirloom, a locket with its own ties to Neverland, is the only tether to the sister she left behind and the life she is obligated to return to. The fairytales she'd heard as a child only hinted at the truth. Neverland bears some dark secrets.

There goes my childhood! 😆

I loved it!!! I enjoyed all of the thought the author put in the small details of the story. Great story to read around the holiday season. Starting the second book immediately!

love the book

looking forward to seeing what happens next. was a little lost at the beginning and not sure what to think of Ms. Gwen

There just aren’t words

Author is brilliant and the narrators literally could not have been any better! Already purchased next book in series! HIGHLY RECOMMEND AND your loss if you don’t listen!

AMAZING

I loved the book to begin with but now with the audio book it's more amazing I could not stop. the range of emotion from the narrators brought me more into the story. it's a master piece. I can wait for the next audio books.

Lots of Sex, group sex and BDSM

I love smut, but this was beyond that. Gwen is just a little too much of a slut to say the least, lol. I do like the mystery of Hook possibly being the good guy here though. If the next book is strictly a monogamous relationship with Hook I’d probably enjoy it more.

Great men, sappy protagonist but second book gets better

Enjoy the book for the romance it is…and don’t miss book #2 and 3

SPICY - But confusing.

The timeline that all of this SMUT happens in is a little ridiculous. The beginning of the story starts off like a bad porno. Just so much “hi we just met, let’s rip each others clothes off and ravish each other”. I realize neverland itself is cause for time confusion and to give you your desires, happiness - pleasures but it’s just crazy to think an 18 year old would have so much sex with so many people in such a short time. The storyline has me wanting to read the next book so that’s good. I wish the male narrator did the voices for the men, the female just makes them sound so juvenile/stupid which is confusing when they talk so dirty.

Do I regret buying? No.
Would I recommend to a friend? Yes. (a spicy friend).

Who says fairy tales aren’t for the grown ups?

Sweet and spicy, wild and wicked. My childhood is ruined, but I love this continuation….and I can’t wait to see where this goes!

The story line and being able to visualize every detail of the story.

I greatly enjoyed this book! I cannot wait to start the second book!! 10/10 recommend

Sadly this one was just not for me.

Sadly this one was just not for me.

I felt totally disconnected from all the characters. There was nothing to the guys and I think it’s attributed to the fact that I was not able to have time with them or understand their motivations. (Sure this is smut but it can be engaging when there is more connection between the partners but that could just be preference.)

I also couldn’t suspend my disbelief enough to fathom why they liked Wendy.

She was….kind of awful.

If I were to describe her, the words that come to mind are jealous, hypocrite, selfish, lacking self awareness and so horny she is dumb. And on that last quality, it is not so much a criticism of her being comfortable with her sexuality and wanting to enjoy herself-it’s more a criticism of how there was nothing else there for me to appreciate in her as a character.

Her “woe is me” attitude was grating.

I was honestly more invested in Lucius and Micaela at the end.

Again I just don’t think this one was for me.
