| Far From Book 1 |
Peter Pan left Neverland and grew up. Now I want him back.
It’s been fourteen years since he left, since Neverland’s star died out, since a blanket of frost fell over the island. Despite the Jolly Roger being anchored in a layer of ice, I’m not yet willing to give up this perfect, Peter Panless Neverland.
Well, it’s not completely perfect. A threat looms here, a shadow devouring the island. I don’t wantPan back, but he’s the only one who can stop it. However, when I find him, there are two problems.
One, Peter Pan has no memory of who he really is.
Two, I can’t seem to resist him.
Making him remember isn’t going to be easy, and not just because I hate him like sin, just like all the sinful thoughts he inspires. I can’t allow him to distract me. The fate of Neverland hangs in the balance.
The old Peter Pan has died, and a new one’s risen from his ashes. He’s a star—Neverland’s sun—and I don’t care if I get burned.
The books in the Far From series are contemporary fantasy, dark romance retellings that all take place mostly far from the locations of the original tales. They are complete standalones and contain trigger warnings and always a HEA. Specific content warnings can be found on the author’s website.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
When Peter Pan left Neverland, Hook couldn’t have been happier. But over the years Neverland has fallen into an icy wasteland with a shadow covering more of it as the days go by. Neverland is dying and it’s time Hook admits he can’t save it. But Peter Pan can. Which means finding him. It’s been a long time since he has entered this other world and a lot has changed. But what he doesn’t expect is for how Peter Pan has truly grown up. No longer a child but a man. A man that Hook can’t resist. But the other problem? Pan has no memories of Neverland. And if Hook plans to save his home, he’ll have to make Pan remember. Peter has always felt like something has been missing since he moved in with the Darlings 14 years ago. But he’s made a life for himself despite it. Then Hook comes crashing into his life and saying all these things about where he is from and even though Peter should be afraid, he is also attracted to Hook in a way he has never been before. And it’s only a matter of time until they give into this connection, until Peter’s memories come back, and until they must leave for Neverland. But who would have thought their hearts would be on the line too? I really enjoyed this dark romance fairy tale retelling! It’s such an interesting concept of throwing these characters into the modern world while they remember where they come from but also throw in the dark romance twist. Naturally, I devoured this story as I watched these two connect and fall for one another. Really enjoying this series and I’m on to the next one!
