About this listen
Revenge, obsession, darkness… A potent poison for any villain, especially one as infamous as Captain James Hook.
The tides of fate have returned James to Neverland’s shores. Peter Pan will pay the ultimate price for what he’s done. But with vengeance at his fingertips, James is thwarted by the one thing he did not see coming—love.
Now he is faced with an impossible choice: pursue his lifelong vendetta against Pan, or embrace the possibility of redemption in the arms of a woman he’s not sure he can trust. Torn between the ghosts of his past and the promise of a new future, James struggles to balance his heart's desire for revenge and the woman who sees beyond the villainous facade to the man he once was. But is the cost of vengeance to be more than he bargained for?
In the epic conclusion to A Descent Into Darkness, get the true story of a man who would ultimately be branded a villain. Will love be James’ salvation, or his ultimate undoing? Will he succumb to the darkness consuming his humanity?

Story
What do you do when the guy you’ve loved since you were 14 is sent to the most dangerous prison in Solaria for saving your life? Okay, so maybe he doesn’t love me back. And maybe getting sent down would seem insane to some, but I’m Rosalie Oscura, champion underground cage-fighter and alpha werewolf from the infamous Oscura Clan. My family wrote the book on criminal organizations, and I’ll be ruling this place by the time the next moon rises. Then I just need to get to work on busting us the hell out of here.

Story
Locked away for twelve years, Sabine Darrow's only friends are animals she communicates with using magic. Now, sold as a bride to a villainous high lord, her greatest fear is trading one prison for another. But a potential escape lies in the form of her gruff yet achingly handsome guard, whose loyalty she is determined to break. A huntsman with heightened senses, Basten "Wolf" Bowborn has more important things to do than transport his master's new bride. With ancient creatures reawakening along the kingdom's border wall, he is torn between his duty and his desire to investigate.

Story
They say monsters are made. I was born one. With an angelic face and a cursed talent, I eat magic and ask for seconds. When I pass through the land, flowers wither, earth scorches, and colors bleed out—all at the command of my father, the God of Ruin. I escaped his prison, only to stumble upon a dangerous school ruled by five heirs. Girls fight to fall into their laps, even though they’re all hot mess assholes.

A vampire bit me while we were making out. Now, I'm being forced to marry him. Okay, not forced. I just don't have any other options. My family is being targeted by a dangerous wolf pack, so we turned to our king for help. But he happens to be the guy I kissed. He agrees to keep us safe—for the small price of my hand in marriage. Or mating. Whatever you want to call it, he demands my future.
