Like Kilian, I didn't know Castle or Kate, but I enjoyed the story regardless, and think you caught his voice very well, complete with poetical "Swan who climbed a beanstalk to the sky" descriptions. And it's a great explanation of how he managed to track down Emma without magical help!
So glad to read that my approach to writing Hook worked for you. I thought it might be wise to tackle him from a somewhat more poetical angle, mostly because he never got any of the instant 21st century socialisation most other fairy tale characters received via the first Storybrooke curse. So his own "larger than life" self-perception is still for the most part intact.
Btw: Thanks to Astrogirl's quick and accurate beta, a proofread version of the story is now available at the AO3. :-)
