Publisher's Summary

As with everything else in my life, the descent into Hell was not so simple. 

When I jumped into the portal, I expected to find the Sins on the other side. I expected to find my people - demons - waiting and ready. What I found were flames and fire and ash. 

The apocalypse hadn't waited for me. It had already begun. Hell's barriers were collapsing in on themselves - making my task of finding the Sins infinitely harder. As the Horsemen and I set out on our journey to find them, we discover that not all is what it seems. 

A white-haired assassin once told me to beware of the evil that hides in plain sight. I should have listened to her. 

The fight for Hell has begun, and the duty of saving it lies solely on my shoulders, but to win - to survive - I must unravel the secrets of the past if any of us are to see the future. 

I will take what is mine, even if I have to bleed for it. 

Contains mature themes.

Loved it!

I have so much love for this series I just can't tell you! I've loved each and every one of the books. They are so well written that I actually miss the characters each time I finish one and have to wait for the next. I swear Bandit has got to be my favorite! Love that little bugger! The narration is beyond fantastic. You need to read this series. It's worth every penny!

Had to read it to finish the series …. ...

I liked the last hour … it wound up the three earlier books in the series. Thankfully, there was much less funky sex in this book -- you can just about skip book 3 entirely as it mostly consists of the female lead moaning for sex and a lot of in depth descriptions of very funky sex scenes -- multiple partners at a time, multiple orifices at a time -- and the consequences thereof -- I have to say, I loved the first two books, if the author had continued on with the same sassy, woman in control, "prove you are worth my affection" attitude, and continued requiring the men to learn to treat her as an adult capable of rational thought and reasoning, and then finished off book 4 with her acceptance of them and the sexual activities, I'd have five starred all four books all around even with the funky submissive sex … luckily, book four completed the series, as I don't think I could have waded through any more "I love pain" comments, whining for sex, biting til the partner bleeds, etc etc to get to the (actually very satisfactory) conclusion of the book series.

Ou mean it's over?

Wow!! I can't believe it's actually over. I mean, I've really gotten into these characters, and it was nicely done, but, I hate to end the ride. BOOK 4 is as good as the first three with a thrill a minute, both hot, sexy and suspenseful. I loved every minute of this one and Hollie Jackson's narration just cemented it as one of the best paranormal romances I've read in a long while. Fast-paced, and never a dull moment, this book delivers, as does the series, all the way to the very end. Good stuff. Happy reading yall.

After three cryptic books, so many info dumps

Underwhelmed. Three books of mysterious events with no one explaining anything (what’s with Ruby’s transition? Why was Ruby raised in secrecy? How do the connection to the Horsemen work? What’s with the Fae?). Then, halfway through this book, it’s nothing but huge info dumps explaining everything with convoluted mythology and not at all credible reasoning. I’m really just flummoxed.

I wish the author had taken more time to write these books and spent more focus on better characters, dialogue, action, and humor. I never found much in Ruby or her Horsemen to draw me in- bestie Moira and the trash panda were far more engaging characters. I also think this would have played better without the smut and all the F bombs. This last book was the closest to the urban fantasy romance I could have loved. But, it was too little quality, too late for me to feel more than a mild like for this book.

Great way to end this series ❤️

I think book 4 was on par with book 1 for me, I loved it and didnt want it to end! I won't be giving things away so this review will be shorter than my others, but let me say I DIDNT SEE SOME OF THE TWISTS COMING! It made me so happy and smile when the reveals started to happen. I had to stop what I was doing to rewind the audio to make sure I didnt hear things incorrectly haha. I thought maybe 1 would be, but not all of them hahaha. If you have read it you will know what I mean. In terms of the storyline, some things I really didnt see coming that made me want to chuck my phone across the room. It made for a good, angsty story and some things were tough to listen to (if you have trigger warnings about nonconsent, just be forewarned there is some in here). So Rysten has been my fav throughout but he had to make up for some things that hurt Ruby and me hahaha. I think Ruby was levelheaded with her response though and he made up for it with some groveling and sexy time 🥵. I think the others stepped up, especially Laran at the end, and I felt for the Horsemen in the Epilogue, Allistair in particular ❤️. I was intrigued with the resolution to the baddie in this one, but I thought book 4 was a tad rushed since they had just entered Hell and everything was resolved by the end, definitely could have expanded and made it 5, but I understand where Kel was coming from.

For narration, same comments as before, issues with some of the accents. I think the added characters was done well and the performance was perfect to make me smile, scream, and cry at the end 😭.

I was happy to see how it ended, and loved the couple epilogues, made me giggle with Bandit and Fate and loved the open-ended conclusion for Moira (and the potential lovers she could have in a future series or story!). I am definitely going to be getting these in paperback (again those covers!!) because this story helped me escape from a crazy work week that was high-stress, helped me decompress and escape even for a couple hours a day with Ruby, her crazy bestie and pet, and her delicious men.

very disappointing ending

this series had me captivated. it was beautiful and intriguing and adventurous. I loved the storyline except that it was so open ended. does she get her beast back? does she do as promised? why did we need to hear from Bandit in the end when we didn't hear his thoughts before? it gave no satisfying ending.

great series, poor narration

The series is good, entertaining with just enough erotic to not weigh it down.
The narrator's voice for several characters seems almost artificial, it's lacks depth and and sounds like she used text to speech when voicing those parts.

It has heart but ...

The characters are loveable. The story felt rushed. The romance fell flat (sad even). Bandit got The true happy ending. Good thing we love Bandit. Hollie Jackson really knows how to bring a story to life. She always seems to manage to give whatever story she's reading pulse. Loved her performance as always .
