In the shadowed heart of Neverland, where magic breathes life into the untamed wilderness, Tiger Lily stands fierce and unyielding. With a crow feather adorning her hair, she is a girl unlike any other—bold, brave, and utterly unenchanted by tales of love and happy endings. That is until she crosses paths with Peter Pan, the enigmatic leader of the Lost Boys. Peter, with his wild courage and captivating allure, draws Tiger Lily into a whirlwind of emotions she’s never faced, challenging everything she’s ever believed about herself and the world around her. As Tiger Lily finds herself entangled in an impassioned affair with Peter, she also faces an impossible choice—forge ahead with a predestined marriage within her tribe or leap into the unknown with Peter by her side. Their love, fierce and forbidden, becomes a beacon in the dark, guiding them through perilous adventures and battles against formidable enemies. Yet, the true test of their bond comes with the arrival of Wendy Darling, an embodiment of everything Tiger Lily is not, igniting a storm of jealousy, betrayal, and a heartrending realization. In this mesmerizing narrative, Jodi Lynn Anderson weaves a tale of love’s profound power to transform, revealing the deepest truths hidden within the human heart.

I loved this book and revisit it often. - DeRay Mckesson
Did you know I always thought you were braver than me? Did you ever guess that that was why I was so afraid? It wasn't that I only loved some of you. But I wondered if you could ever love more than some of me.I knew I'd miss you. But the surprising thing is, you never leave me. I never forget a thing. Every kind of love, it seems, is the only one. It doesn't happen twice. And I never expected that you could have a broken heart and love with it too, so much that it doesn't seem broken at all. I know young people look at me and think my youth seems so far away, but it's all around me, and you're all around me. Tiger Lily, do you think magic exists if it can be explained? I can explain why I loved you, I can explain the theory of evolution that tells me why mermaids live in Neverland and nowhere else. But it still feels magic.The lost boys all stood at our wedding. Does it seem odd to you that they could have stood at a wedding that wasn't yours and mine? It does to me. and I'm sorry for it, and for a lot, and I also wouldn't change it.It is so quiet here. Even with all the trains and the streets and the people. It's nothing like the jungle. The boys have grown. Everything has grown. Do you think you will ever grow? I hope not. I like to think that even if I change and fade away, some other people won't.I like to think that one day after I die, at least one small particle of me - of all the particles that will spread everywhere - will float all the way to Neverland, and be part of a flower or something like that, like that poet said, the one that your Tik Tok loved. I like to think that nothing's final, and that everyone gets to be together even when it looks like they don't, that it all works out even when all the evidence seems to say something else, that you and I are always young in the woods, and that I'll see you sometime again, even if it's not with any kind of eyes I know of or understand. I wouldn't be surprised if that is the way things go after all - that all things end happy. Even for you and Tik Tok. and for you and me.Always,Your PeterP.S. Please give my love to Tink. She was always such a funny little bug.
