Mermaids, stormy skies, daring adventures, pirates…it was little wonder I sprinted to the docks the moment I left the orphanage. Eager to begin my new life, I searched for a ship that would have me—and found a thief instead. I chased the bastard. Now I’m trapped.

Monsters lurk around every corner, and everyone I meet hides a damning secret. I’m thrust in the middle of an ancient feud, and seemingly, the only one interested in unraveling the curse that plagues us. Neverland is my home now. Until it’s done with me? It will never let go. Peter Pan meets Pirates of the Caribbean in A Land of Never After, but reader beware: this children’s tale has been reimagined for adult lovers of all things dark and deadly.

Then it’s gettingundone. Syd (no pronouns, please) has always dealt with big, hard-to-talk-about things by baking.
