Hooked by Emily McIntire is a dark, intoxicating Peter Pan-inspired retelling that takes the classic villain and turns him into your next obsession.
James “Hook” Barrie isn’t your typical fairytale pirate—he’s ruthless, powerful, and out for revenge. As the king of Neverland (a seedy, crime-ridden empire built on blood and secrets), he has only one goal: destroy the man who ruined his life—Peter Michaels. And what better way to do that than by seducing Peter’s innocent, wide-eyed daughter, Wendy?
Wendy Michaels is sweet, curious, and completely unprepared for the man who steps into her life like a dark storm. Hook is dangerous, wickedly charming, and absolutely off-limits—but resisting him? Impossible. As she gets pulled deeper into his world, she starts to realize that the monster everyone warned her about might just be the one person who makes her feel alive.
But when secrets unravel and pasts collide, Wendy has to decide—will she stand by the villain, or will she run before he consumes her whole?
Sinfully seductive and deliciously dark, Hooked is a modern villain romance that will leave you breathless and begging for more.
