The Hook & Crown Duology by Nicole Knapp

Description

Hook & Crown (Hook & Crown #1)

Elena Hart arrives in London, bound for a new boarding school operated by her estranged uncle. A fresh start is exactly what she needs. But when strange things begin happening, things she can’t explain, she begins to wonder if she’s losing her senses. Then, a strange girl appears in her room one night, claiming to be a fairy tasked with bringing Elena to Neverland at the request of its ruler.

Skeptical, Elena refuses, until a young man with strange green eyes appears. Although she tries to resist his charm, something about him allays her doubts, and Elena is whisked away from the world she knows to one she always thought was make-believe.

But Neverland is nothing like the stories Elena grew up hearing, and she quickly learns that the boundary between the righteous and the wicked is hardly clear-cut. She must decide for herself who the heroes and villains are, or if there are truly any at all.

Stars & Steel (Hook & Crown #2)

The adventure continues in the dark and exciting sequel to Nicole Knapp’s reimagined fairy tale, Hook & Crown. Fans of Aiden Thomas’ Peter Pan retelling, Lost in the Never Woods, won’t be able to resist following Elena and Will back into the deadly world of Neverland.

After escaping Neverland, Elena and Will are looking forward to starting over. Plagued by nightmares and the harsh realities of the real world, moving on turns out to be easier said than done. And just when they think it couldn’t possibly get worse, an all too familiar fairy appears to burn what remains of their lives to the ground.

Fully aware that they are flying straight into a trap, Elena and Will set off on a rescue mission to the last place they ever thought they would see again: Neverland.

Just as deadly as before, the island awaits, ready to rip them apart and destroy everything they love. Boundaries are pushed, relationships are tested, and survival is not a guarantee. How can they stop a villain who does not die?

When it comes to Neverland, everything begins and ends with stars and steel.
