AFTER NEVER
Peter Pan never imagined he’d have to face these adversaries—beard hair, fraught romance, a den of rogue bohemian fairies.
Oh, and his own past.
Incurably teenage Peter has spent over a lifetime running from the heinous pain of growing up, and all the other demons in his past. Not that he remembers any of them—everything before Neverland is a murky abyss, and he tells himself he’s totally fine with that. But when Wendy’s death rips open scars he’d rather cut off his own hand than confront, only one person gets it.
Kemara is the future chief of the Nivari, but she really wishes she wasn’t. Her people lost faith in her decades ago, thanks to a mistake that got dozens of them killed. But when Neverland’s capricious goddess puts a deadline on her consecration, she copes by chasing down her favorite distraction: Peter.
But in a far-flung corner of Neverland, they stumble upon an infiltrating magical darkness… and a mess of awkward, dangerous feelings that seem a lot like the adulthood they’ve both been running from.
