Hooked

By Emily McIntire
Hooked by Emily McIntire digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

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 and the first in The Never After Series: A collection of fractured fairy tales where the villains get the happy ever after. This is a DARK Contemporary romance (not fantasy) featuring mature themes and content that may not be suitable for all audiences. Reader discretion is advised.*

“Sans réelle surprise, je n'ai pas apprécié. C’est une DR et ce n’est pas du tout mon genre littéraire. Mais j’étais curieuse de découvrir et de sortir de ma zone de confort. Et c’était une bonne expérience quand même. Ici, on est sur la réécriture sans vraiment l’être, de Peter Pan mais version dark. On suit Wendy et Hook (James). J’ai trouvé ces personnages plutôt naïfs. Et leur relation était beaucoup trop facile. Les plot twist sont prévisibles mais parfois j’ai eu des réactions comme : “ils n’ont aucune pitié”, j’ai ri tellement c’était irréaliste et ça me choquait. Les quelques références à Peter Pan sont sympas, ce que je trouve dommage c’est qu’il manque une partie de fantastique dans le livre. Après c’était original de réunir Wendy et Hook. (gentille/méchant).”
Surprised Face with Open Mouth“This book surprised me in the best way. The writing and growth of characters was the biggest shines for me with this book! I knew what I was getting into, but I didn’t realize how much the author makes you appreciate the characters for who they are. They are multi-dimensional and complicated. The spice was excellent. I am very much looking forward to reading more from this author! 3.75⭐️’s”
