I received an e-copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.I love fairy tales! Add a new twist to them and I'm so on board! Marie Hall certainly delivers that twist by telling the tales of our favorite fairy tale villains and how they come to have their Happily Ever After. 'Cause even a villain needs that special someone to love!Hook's Pan is a delightful tale filled with humor, romance and enough swagger in the form of Captain James Hook to turn any girls heart. *sigh* I have to admit that ever since they introduced Hook on Once Upon A Time I've had quite a crush on the Captain and even though the TV show and Hall's Kingdom series aren't remotely related, I seem to be drawn to bad boys (yes Hook & Hatter, I'm talking about you!)Hook may be captain of the Jolly Roger, but Trishelle (Trisha) isn't one to let him order her around like one of his mates. She's feisty, funny and can hold her own against whatever the Kingdom throws at her. This being Hook's tale, we also get to see Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. I personally think that Hall hit the nail right on the head with her characterization of Peter as an obnoxious brat and Tink as anything but the sweet little fairy that Disney would want us to believe.The pace is fast, the chemistry between Trisha and Hook is HOT, and we're set up for an HEA! What more could you want in a fairy tale? Hook's Pan is the fifth in the Kingdom series and wraps up the original Bad Five, but Hall leaves us with a note that she has more Kingdom tales to tell and I can't wait to read them!!!
