She went to Neverland to kill him.
London, 1895. Wendy Davenport is running out of time. Her brother is dying, her family is unraveling, and the debts strangling their household have left her with nowhere to turn.
Then a young man appears at her window. Not truly a man at all, but a myth wrapped in moonlight. Peter is known as a wish-granter, a demon, a miracle. He offers Wendy an impossible bargain—come to Neverland for a week, and her brother will live.
But miracles are never free.
Before Wendy can accept, a London socialite who knows about the Davenport family''s ruin presents her with a counteroffer. Kill Peter. Bring back proof. Save her family and silence the truth forever.
So Wendy goes to Neverland with murder in her heart and desperation in her veins.
But Neverland is not the dream she was promised. It is feral, intoxicating, and ruled by Peter. Every moment with him blurs her purpose. Every kiss unravels her resolve. And the deeper she is pulled into his world, the harder it becomes to remember the girl who came to kill him.
Desire is a trap. Love is a weapon. And Neverland always takes its tithe.
A darkly erotic Peter Pan retelling perfect for readers who crave the sensual mythology of Sierra Simone, the fantasy of Scarlett St. Clair, and fairy tales with teeth.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
