Forever Found is the conclusions to the story began in Girl Lost, a modern day re-telling of Peter Pan all grown up. Nazarae Andrews breathes new life into an old classic and creates a world that is real and magical. This novella is the perfect ending and I was so happy with how their story ended, as bittersweet as it may have seemed.
This novella is told through Peter’s POV. It picks up right where Girl Lost left off, with Peter having heartbreakingly explained to Gwen that it was all true and he is the Boy who has come back for her. For years she has struggled to reconcile what she thought happened with what people tell her truly did happen. She is moving on and putting it all behind her. But in doing so, she is destroying the world she once loved and knew. Her unbelief is killing Neverland. Peter will do whatever it takes to make her believe again and save the world he knows and loves.
Forever Found is a raw and emotional conclusion to this Peter Pan story. The emotion you read is both heart breaking and intense. Peter pushes Gwen to believe and at times it seems as though he is causing a madness to breed within her mind. His determination will not allow him to stop until she believes and everything returns to the way it should be, or so he thinks. All the old favorite characters make an appearance and help to create a world that eases Gwen into the truth. At times, as the reader, you are always wondering as to whether her mind can take it. For so many years she has forced herself, for sanity’s sake, to disbelieve what was so real in order to transition back into the world she left behind. Peter’s antics sometimes felt borderline cruel, the actions of a desperate man determined to save what is his. Their connection grows deeper and the truth is revealed. I loved reading this novella from Peter’s POV. In Girl Lost, it seemed like he had a touch of madness and in this book we see that madness take shape. His determination is strong and his command of the world he knows is slipping away, creating a situation in which he will cross lines to save those he loves.
This story is the perfect ending to Peter and Gwen’s tale. It was unexpected with a fresh and excellent modern twist on a classic story. It is emotional, powerful, and intense. Fans of Peter Pan will enjoy this fresh spin on the beloved story.

Northern was supposed to be a fresh start—a place where people didn’t know who I was or how I had spent years in and out of mental institutes. People didn’t know about my parents death or the island no one heard of. But when Peter sits next to me in lit class, I can’t stop the memories, and I don’t want to. He looks too much like the boy from the island, and despite my best intentions, coaxes my secrets from me.
He’s gorgeous, irresistible, a little mad, and completely lost—we are a pair of broken cogs in a world neither of us truly fits into. He is somehow gentle and fierce, heartbreaking in his devotion and savage in his defense.
When Belle, his best friend, shows up, pale and lovely and sick, Peter pulls away from me, a startling withdrawal. It’s a relationship that scares and confuses me. She is at times warm and friendly, and other times is violent and unpredictable.
Peter says that he wants me, but refuses to let himself get close. And there are secrets, surrounding both of us, that border on nightmares. As the memories close in, as Belle gets sicker and more violent, I’m torn between what is true and what I believe, and what this magical boy knows about my mysterious past.
