Hopelessly Hooked: A Fated Mates Queer Fairytale Romance (Big Bad Deeds Book 1) Kindle Edition

3.5 out of 5 stars 135 ratings

Paint the second star to the right, and just always be waiting for me.

Warren, darling

Try as I may, I can't get the voice of the Jolly Roger's captain out of my head. Captain Hook believes my magic keeps him safe, but in truth I'm pushing him out to sea.

We are destined to be together, but what Hook doesn't know can't hurt me. Can't tempt me away from the sanctuary I'm trying to build on land. No matter how badly I want to taste the salt water on his skin.

Captain Hook

The difference between a curse and a blessing is perspective. What was meant as a punishment has given me a wonderful life of piracy. The only cost is I'm bound to the mage who cast the spell.

Warren is a darling artist who claims to get seasick with black hair, and one sky-blue eye that captivates me like only the ocean can. If he’s as uninterested as he claims, why does he say my real name like my heart is the only treasure that matters?

Hopelessly Hooked is a sweet and steamy, small town, magical binding romance with a happy-ever-after. It can be read as a standalone or together with the rest of the books in the Big Bad Deeds series.

    Wildly imaginative, very hot, and charming as all get out story of two beings who are perfect foils for the other, and their struggle to arrive at a place they might be together in body and deed, not just in thoughts and feelings.
    I wanted to read this novella because who is sexier than Jason Isaacs as Captain James Hook or than Killian/Hook from Once? I loved this brief but satisfying story of the Captain and the mage he loves coming together literally and figuratively. The dual POV gives insights into both characters’ inner turmoil, and ultimately ends as a triumph of love over fear, as these two perfect for each other men make room in their lives for a future together.

    I've found a new go-to comfort read! I curled up with this one during an afternoon and, before I knew it, evening had arrived and the story was wrapping up. We meet mage Warren as he laments that, though the spell he cast protects his love, it also prevents him from remaining on land for too long. We are then introduced to Captain Hook - and this roguish version is no where near some versions you might have read about during childhood. The two gently pine for each other and we learn that sometimes honesty is the best policy. This is the first book I've read by Sinclair and I will certainly seek out more. A soft tale for anyone who needs an escape.

    It wasn’t a bad story, quite sweet actually. I just seemed to be lost pretty much the entire book — we literally were dropped into this story that felt like the first half was missing.

    It was okay. I thought it was too long and not enough substance. It needs. Ore depth but has potential.

    There’s something almost lyrical about this story—- the moods and essences of the characters come through beautifully. Readers looking for world building that fills in every gap and dwells in the concrete details won’t find that here, but there’s something about the nebulous quality of the lore and the haziness of the backstory, which weaves in bits and pieces of Peter Pan in the pirate with his hook and the Neverlands, as well as other familiar tales— a piper who can summon with song, a deceased monarch who bears something of a resemblance, maybe, to Alice in Wonderland’s queen of hearts, that feels deeply engaging. I liked Warren and Hook, although I can’t claim to know them, or that they even know each other, truly, beyond the deep chemistry of the magic that links them— but when there’s magic and fate and an ocean to explore, I suppose there’s no real need for anything else.

    *I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

    Loved the ease of this book. It flowed so nicely and the characters - I love them so much. The witty banter between Warren and Hook made me smile. Piper was my fav and I’ll def be grabbing his book soon.

    This is such a unique telling of the story of Captain Hook. It was very different from what I imagined it would be but that can be a good thing. Warren and James have an interesting back and forth relationship. Warren’s healing magic has placed a spell on the Captain which requires him to be on the sea for certain periods of each month and the moon’s phases. It won’t take you long to read this and it is worth a read. Warren’s reasons for staying away from Hook eventually lose their meaning. The pirate is a patient man waiting for him to realize what Hook has known all along.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Sweet pirate romance with a good message
    Reviewed in Italy on September 25, 2023

    Captain Hook really made this story for me. The author really managed to make me fall in love with him. He was so sweet and sexy. I'd love to let him fight for me <3
    I also really appreciated the slow burn. It was perfectly done. But my favorite part was how the author treated the "destined lovers" aspect of the love story. I thought it sent a good message.
    However, I overall didn't jell with the writing style. It's clear that the author had a rich world inside their mind but I don't think they fully managed to put it on page. More than once, I was left confused by what I was reading because I felt like I wasn't given enough information about what was going on or the world surrounding these characters.

    P.S. Besides some movies, I'm not that familiar with the story of Peter Pan, but I think that if the main character wasn't called Hook, you wouldn't even know this had anything to do with that story. Sure, Neverland gets mentioned once but it left me even more perplexed because it leads nowhere.
