Hooked: Book 1 — UnFairytale Story by Emily McIntyre

Step into a world where fairy tales aren’t fair and heroes can be monsters with Hooked: UnFairytale Story #1 (На гачку. Неказкова історія. Книга 1) by Emily McIntyre, translated into Ukrainian by Darія Kapelist, and published by Vivat in 2025. This 338‑page hardback (approx. 197×143 mm) plunges you into a love story twisted by vengeance and desire.

James has lived for one mission: destroy Peter Michaels. When Peter’s young daughter Wendy walks into his bar, James sees a chance — to seduce her, use her, enact his revenge. But as danger stalks his plan and loyalties shift, Wendy becomes more than just a pawn. She challenges his cold heart, pushing him into turmoil. Wendy, who has known loneliness after her mother’s death, faces emotional storms she’s not prepared for — between attraction and fear, between love and betrayal.

Ideal for fans of dark romance, morally grey characters, and stories where love comes with a price. Hooked combines raw passion, psychological tension, and sharp emotional conflict. Not for the faint of heart, but if you crave intensity, complexity, and a romance that makes you question what evil really is — this book demands to be read.
