Hooked

The Never After Series, Book 1

De: Emily McIntire

Narrado por: Felicity Munroe, Rupert Hawthorne

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.

Amazing stand-alone!!

Loved this story! I’m not usually a stand alone book reader but this one enthralled me from the beggining and I never wanted to stop listening! The way the whole story comes together at the end was *chefs kiss*

recommend 100%

I really enjoyed the story line. the way she incorporated Peter pan characters. alot more graphic then I expected but still enjoyable.
enjoyed the voice of both readers.

Simply Amazing

After reading a very long 3 book series, I needed something short and sweet to get over my listening slump. This book was exactly what I needed. An amazing modern twist on Peter Pan with just enough detail and perfect steamy scenes. The narrators did an amazing job, especially the male reader. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed

From the story to the narration this was enjoyable, noting is more exciting then excellent narration

wow! Great story.

Now that was an adventure. little bit of everything. it was intense hearing somethings, but that made me want to hear more. voice acting was great too. 👍🏾

Wonderful Story line! Definitely love the story

One thing that i can say i ABSOLUTELY loved is that is was “same character, different story”. It was a captivating story with twist and spicy scenes. You immediately love James and the more you learn, the more you hear the internal dialogue; its like you heart is taken haha the fact that so many things catch you and when you start putting the pieces together. Its amazing! Can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

AMAZING

I was melting during this whole book! The good, the bad and the god damn sexy romance. Yes please any day!

Love These Two Readers

I really enjoyed this. It is a quick listen. The story is what it is. Enjoyable, predictable, and the perfect recovery novel.

The readers are some of my favorite.

So Good!

This book was amazing! I love retellings, and while this was a book inspired by rather than retold, you absolutely get the Pan feeling with it. Just about every character name was from the Barrie classic, and so were many of the locations, and it brought a smile to my face each time one was introduced. As someone who hasn't read this author before and isn't even a fan of Peter Pan, this exceeded my expectations. It was darker than I expected, and while it does get rather gory, the darkness didn't bother me. I was engaged with the audiobook narration too, and can't wait to read more of this series.

Loved the Accent for Hook!

I’d give this a 3.5. It was pretty good. Not super dark … Hook has some serious issues from a horrible past. Wendy is trusting and naïve. I don’t want to say much to spoil anything- it was pretty good. I have however found a new quote I want for a tattoo. Not my favorite book, but one of my favorite quotes I’ve heard in a book. “Straight on ‘til morning.” I did the KU whisper sync - the audible version was good. Loved the male narrators voice!

““Straight on ‘til morning.” My head tilts. “What’s that mean?” His arm wraps around my shoulders, bringing me in close. “That means you don’t quit until you get what you want. Even if it takes all damn night. Understand?””
