Never After is a dark contemporary romance series by Emily McIntire, with each book built around a lead modelled on a classic villain. The six titles, Hooked (2021), Scarred (2022), Wretched (2022), Twisted (2022), Crossed (2023) and Hexed (2024), stand alone rather than carrying one plot forward, so reading order is open. These are not fairy tale retellings. The books are written for adult readers and carry violence among their subjects.
