Captain Hook is a man defined by his cruelty, his selfishness, and the three dark curses etched into his skin. After fifteen years of searching, he discovers that the only person capable of breaking his hexes is Tinkerbell, a sharp-tongued, fiery sprite who operates a unique tattoo shop infused with pixie dust. There is just one significant problem: Tink absolutely loathes him. This spicy reimagining of a classic tale features an intense enemies-to-lovers dynamic, where the traditional pirate’s brute force is entirely ineffective against the feisty fairy. Hook is accustomed to bending others to his will with the tip of his weapon, but to earn Tink’s help, he must learn the unfamiliar art of charm. As they navigate a high-stakes partnership, the tension between them is volatile, leaving both to wonder if they will break the curses or simply destroy one another first. Part of the interconnected *Lost Girls* series, this novella delivers a dark, paranormal twist on familiar folklore. With a morally gray protagonist and a heroine who refuses to back down, the story promises a steamy, fast-paced encounter where all bets are off once the hook comes away.
