NOTE: Judge of Hell may contain triggers for some due to mature content, abusive situations, and harsh language
Fierce, loyal, controlled. Three things Judge became at a young age.
Enduring unimaginable horrors no child should, he swore no person would dictate his or his brother’s lives again.
Revenge fueled him, setting a path destined from the moment he and his brothers escaped their hell. Nothing would stop him from destroying the ones who’d wronged him, even if that meant giving up the only woman to ever make him feel more than the heat of vengeance.
He let Ellie go, threw her away, never knowing the consequences of his actions.
Twelve years later, she reappears in his life, and she has some hellacious secrets of her own. Ones that knock Judge on his ass and threaten his ironclad control.
His life quickly changes course. Priorities are shifted and sacrifices are made. Judge has a decision to make. Will he give up his incessant need for retribution? Or will he sacrifice something he never dreamed he could have, but desperately wants.
Or is it possible to have both?

“Why are you nervous?” I ask, coming to a stop a couple of feet away. I want to close the remaining space between us and kiss away the apprehension from her face.
“I’m not,” she denies.
I smirk and let my eyes fall to her hands for a moment before lifting them back to hers. “You forget. I know all your nervous tics, Ellie.”
Her hands stop fiddling with each other, and she instead stuffs them in her pockets. Her shoulders slump.
“I just don’t know what to do here.”
I frown. “Elaborate.”
She looks around the room, then back at me. “This is your home, Judge. I’m only here because of Maisy. I don’t really know what to do in this situation.”
That makes me scowl, irritation forming in my stomach. “This is your home for as long as you’re here. Treat it as such. Do whatever in the hell you want to do.”
I take a step closer when she nods. Being only a foot away, I can see the small specks of black in her silver eyes. I can also smell her natural floral scent and it drives me crazy. My dick takes notice, recognizing the scent from years before, and my blood heats.
Her eyes widen when I reach up and lay my hand against her neck, feeling the rapid beat of her pulse beneath my palm. She closes her eyes, and I see the war raging in her mind.
Push me away or pull me closer.
I want to demand she pull me closer. I swipe my thumb along the underside of her jaw, running across the small scattering of scars, reminding me I never asked her about them.
That needs to be rectified soon. I’ve already learned a lot from JW’s report, and what she’ll tell me is going to hurt like a bitch, but I need to hear it from her. The pain will be my penance for allowing her to be hurt.
She opens her eyes, and I know she’s going to retreat. I grip the back of her neck and pull her until only a few short inches separate her lips from mine.
“Don’t fight it,” I whisper.
Her eyes glisten, and the sight tears a hole in my heart.
“This is going to be difficult enough,” she whispers back, her voice raspy. “Don’t make it harder by adding this to the mix.”
I lean down until I feel her uneven breath against my lips. She looks at me with dilated eyes. “It doesn’t have to be hard if we don’t want it to be. It could be as easy as breathing. Like it used to be.”
I close the gap between us, but instead of kissing her like I’m dying to, I run my nose along the column of her neck. My lips graze against her earlobe.
“I know you still feel it, Ellie. I know I still make your heart pound and your breath hitch. I bet you have butterflies in your belly and shivers racing down your back. You feel the chemistry between us. The same electric pull that was there all those years ago. The same desire that swept through us anytime we were together. Even when we weren’t, all it took was one thought and it consumed us.” I trail a path of kisses up to her jaw and across her cheek. At the corner of her mouth, her lips parted as she pants, I pull back just far enough so I can see her gorgeous eyes. “I know you still feel it, because I still feel it too. It’s not going anywhere, no matter how much you fight it.”

Welcome back to Malus, TX. Jugde of Hell by Alex Grayson is book three in her Hell Night series. It can not be a read a standlone.
Decadently dark, just fabulously and savagely addictive 5 MINDFUCKING STARS!! Absolutely captivating. It's a very dark, rich story, and the character development is outstanding. It is no secret that Alex Grayson is one of my all-time favorite authors This book was so deliciously f-cked-up. Is a deliciously dark book with so many twists and turn that you have no idea what is coming next. To say Judge of Hell is a dark romance is a bit of an understatement. I was intrigued, and completely captivated while reading. This book consumed me. Its so unique. Trust me this is a book you want to go in blind. It really took hold and invaded my whole world in one sitting, at times difficult to digest, but un-put-down-able just the same!! I absolutely love Alex! Everything she writes is golden! Once again, Alex proved herself to be a true storyteller, inticating a web of carefully woven lines filled with action, mystery, suspense and hawt carnal affection between the characters. I’m a complete masochist when it comes to Alex Grayson words, but this was on a whole other level, and I just want more, more, and MOREEEEEEE! This series gets better with each book! I have to say, this one was intense. It was so dark and painful and angsty. So much torment in this! I could NOT stop reading it!!! At times I really hated reading some of the things that happened, but the story was so addictive and intense that I couldn't help but love it. It’s one of those books that you won’t want to put down. All I wanted for these two is to find the love and happiness they both deserved, This is a romance based on secrets and half truths. It’s a romance that centers on revenge and hate. It ruined me!! Right from the first page I was like “what the hell did I get myself into?” I couldn’t even put it down! It was emotional and friggin twisted as hell! I can only recommend this book to lovers of Dark. I immensely enjoyed this book I can’t wait to read the Key to Hell.
