Synopsis
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.

The Never King is a dark retelling of Peter and Wendy. If you like your enemies to lovers romance with hot, ruthless, morally gray love interests, you’ll enjoy The Never King and the Lost Boys. You can expect hate kissing, fighting, bickering, and ‘touch her and I’ll unalive you’ vibes.
My Review
'ππ‘π πππ―ππ« ππ’π§π '
Is the first full length fantasy book in the 'Vicious Lost Boys' series by new to me author Nikki St. Crowe. Spoken in multiple POV's and ends in a cliffy hanger.
My go to genre isn't doing it for me lately, book funk or whatever so I'm switching it up reading something I wouldn't normally gravitate towards.
I kind of tiptoed into this because I do not normally do this genre, but god I needed to do something because my go too's have been meh lately..
As soon as a 'Darling' woman turns eighteen they disappear, is it myth or truth? Only Winnie can tell you in her story.
reading this and getting so sucked into the storyline made me realise that I definitely need to read more of this genre, like this is my first EVER and I loved it!! I couldn't put it down, read from front to back like I was on crack, devouring all the words, loving this world, the magical place where the boys are hotter than hell.
