Who Is This Book For?
This Book Is Made for You If…
Wretched is perfect for readers who love dark romance with morally complex characters and serious chemistry. If you enjoy enemies-to-lovers stories, forbidden romance, or antiheroes done right, this book is going to become a fast favorite. It is especially a great pick for BookTok fans and anyone who has been looking for a romance where the female lead is just as layered and dangerous as the love interest. This is not a book for the faint of heart. It is for readers who want heat, tension, and a story that does not tie everything up neatly with a bow.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: Do I need to read the Never After Series in order before reading Wretched? A: No, you do not. Each book in the Never After Series is written as a complete standalone, so you can jump straight into Wretched without having read Hooked or Scarred first. That said, fans of the series will enjoy meeting familiar themes and the same dark, romantic atmosphere throughout all three books.
Q: Is Wretched a fantasy book or a Wizard of Oz retelling? A: Wretched is a dark contemporary romance, not a fantasy novel and not a direct retelling of The Wizard of Oz. It takes loose inspiration from the classic story and reimagines its themes through a modern, gritty lens with a morally grey female lead, a forbidden romance, and a whole lot of tension.
Q: Is Wretched suitable for all readers? A: Wretched contains mature content including explicit romance, dark themes, and morally complex situations. It is recommended for adult readers aged 18 and above. Emily McIntire lists all content warnings on her official website for readers who want to check before diving in.
Q: What romance tropes does Wretched include? A: Wretched delivers some of the most popular romance tropes in one story, including enemies to lovers, forbidden romance, one-night stand to more, dual point of view storytelling, and a morally grey female lead. If any of those tropes are on your reading list, this book checks all the boxes.

Wretched follows Evelina Westerly, a sharp and ruthless woman at the center of her family's criminal empire, and Nicholas Woodsworth, an undercover DEA agent with a personal vendetta against everything she represents. After a charged one-night encounter, fate pulls them back into each other's orbit in the most dangerous way possible. As their worlds collide and their walls come down, the line between mission and feeling blurs in ways neither of them planned for. Wretched is a dark contemporary romance and a complete standalone in the Never After Series, a collection of fractured fairy tales inspired by beloved villains. It is not fantasy and it is not a retelling. Reader discretion is advised.
