Fantasy Historical
"Every child knows how the story ends. The wicked pirate captain is flung
overboard, caught in the jaws of the monster crocodile who drags him down
to a watery grave. But it was not yet my time to die. It's my fate to be trapped
here forever, in a nightmare of childhood fancy, with that infernal, eternal
boy." Meet Captain James Benjamin Hook, a witty, educated Restoration-era
privateer cursed to play villain to a pack of malicious little boys in a pointless
war that never ends. But everything changes when Stella Parrish, a forbidden
grown woman, dreams her way to the Neverland in defiance of Pan's rules.
From the glamour of the Fairy Revels, to the secret ceremonies of the First
Tribes, to the mysterious underwater temple beneath the Mermaid Lagoon,
the magical forces of the Neverland open up for Stella as they never have for
Hook. And in the pirate captain himself, she begins to see someone far more
complex than the storybook villain. With Stella's knowledge of folk and fairy
tales, she might be Hook's last chance for redemption and release if they can
break his curse before Pan and his warrior boys hunt her down and drag Hook
back to their neverending game. Alias Hook by Lisa Jensen is a beautifully and
romantically written adult fairy tale.
