Another reverting book by the amazing author that is Stephanie Hudson.
I can't get enough of this series they just keep getting better & better if that is at all possible.
Ella and Jared are put through ringer again as Ella's powers have now been returned in a devastating outcome as Ella is losing herself to her former self. Jared is racing against time to get her back before the big war that will end things as they know it.
This was fast paced with lot's of action plus we are finding out truths that we have always wanted to know that have been revealed in this story. Can't wait for the last book now to find out how everything will come together for this couple and what they are going to be put through to get there hea. Brilliant!

EXCELLENT! Stephanie you’ve done AGAIN!
There are TWO authors I ABSOLUTELY ADORE! Stephanie- you are number 1! Only you and one other have ever drawn me in to the extent I feel adrift when the book has ended!
Don’t let the immature jealous haters that can’t POSSIBLY done what you have get to you in the slightest! Because that’s ALL THEY ARE! IMMATURE JEALOUS HATERS WISHING they had a following like you do! We love you Steph! 💜💜
And and to the idiot “author” that had the clearance aisle full of audacity to dis on the COVER?! GTFOH! You’ll NEVER be what Stephanie is! Cupcake, we WILL be sure NEVER to read your stuff. 😉

Betrayal comes in many forms in this book by a phenomenal author.
Stephanie Hudson weaves this story with the talent she is known for. Not only are her characters well developed, their personalities are as diverse as her locations. I enjoy the banter between these "people" as it is so realistic and true to form; be it brothers, sisters, best friends or combatants. I am eagerly looking forward to the end of this tale just to learn of Jared and Ella's HEA. Gods know, they have long deserved it!
Well done again, Ms. Hudson! Very well done indeed!

Riveting and action packed amazing
This next to the last book had me hooked from the first word to the last and with little to no sleep as I didn't put it down til it was finished!! The twists and turns and changes kept me on edge the entire book and I've never been so anxious to get the next book as I have this one. Stephanie Hudson has gone so far above and beyond in this epic world that I'm blown away!! You have to enter this world to experience it and do it justice. Chef's kiss 💋 10 stars if I could!!

In his search for Ella, Jared finally encounters Koro and Lerna. This encounter, which is (initially) painful for him, reveals further pieces of the puzzle about Ella.
Ella, on the other hand, continues her own journey with Asher and Tye, only to end up back where her suffering culminated.
War is in the air, and Ragnarök seems inevitable. The end of hell has never been closer.
Luckily, Asher, Tye, Orthrus, and Marcus lighten the gloomy mood a bit. Otherwise, all hope for a HEA for Jared and Ella would be lost. Because love isn't guaranteed here.

This book was amazing, as someone who has read all her books this was another brilliant book. Her way of writing is such that you really feel like your on the pages with the characters. I highly recommend all her books starting with Afterlife. You will not be disappointed. I know everyone has their own type of writing that they like, but at least give her books a shot. Can't wait for the last book in this series.

Waiting for yet another book
The story is excellent as always, but I am getting fed up with having to wait for yet another book before the story is finished. I don't mind several installments of an overall story, but I would like the side stories to at least be completed in a single book. All though I have enjoyed the various series it makes me wonder if I should start another because I don't know how long it is going to be before ot ends. 5 books, 10 books ???

I absolutely love the incredible stories this author writes and am a die hard fan and have been reading her books for many years. I can look beyond typos and see the beautiful stories there. However, over the last few books in this series, the number sentences that start with the word "As" has really detracted from the story for me. I can't not notice it every time. I'm going to need a bit of a break from that before I dive into that last book, but I am looking forward to Jared and Ella's HEA.

Lost, then found, then lost
When will fate turn in their favor? Will Jared and Ella ever get their happy ending? It is difficult to watch their struggle to get their lives back. It takes an author as talented as Stephanie that makes you want to reach into the story and end the bad guys in a painful way, to explain to the lovers to trust, and to help them fight. Now on to the next book and I hope we get a HEA!

Brilliance in ink!
As always, kept up all night and on the edge of my seat. I really believe if stephanie partnered with an energy company it would sell out... I felt like I had my eye lids being forced open with tape. There was no way I could put this brilliant book down until I finished it.
Now to do some actual adulting and sleep .. for 24hr break because there is just 1 more book and I NEEED to know how it ends

Fantastic, Moving Story
Another installment in the Hellbeast series and it didn’t disappoint. It brought back many of our old friends from Afterlife, Transfusion, and even the Siren series. Trying to save Ella from Gramr. Unfortunately unable to do it. We have to wait for the rest of the story.
I hate waiting, but this is a series that is worth the wait!!!

Amazing Storytelling
The Hellbeast's Betrayal is book 11 of Stephanie Hudson's The Hellbeast King series. The storytelling is truly masterful. The characters will draw you in and have you pulling for them. Jared and Ella are destined to be together. However, destiny and the Fates can be fickle. Enjoy the rollercoaster ride of their lives and those of the rest of the Kings.

This was more like the writing I'm used to reading from Stephanie. My only two complaints are the over use of "meaning" and "which meant" and there is still too much descriptive dialogue. Using these terms felt like an insult to my ability to understand what was happening. I also feel like all of the descriptions of clothing takes away from the flow of the story.

King of Kings, King of Vampires, & so much more! So many characters so many wonderful realms to loose yourself in makes these books impossible to put down!!!
Fingers crossed there are many more stories to continue, would love to read Sigurds storey, as well as, Seth, Tyr, Koro, and Lucius' brother Dariush. But truly my favorite would be Marcus❤

Sweet hazelnut creamer! Stephanie, girl, what are you doing to me? And to poor Jared and Ella?!? I knew this was going to be one heck of an ending but I must say, going into the last book,I really don’t know how you topped this one. I can’t wait to tear into The Hellbeast’s Queen!

When the series first started
I love this series but it seems like IMO it should’ve ended..same thing keeps happening over and over. Jared find Ella then loses her over and over again.

Holy Cow!!! Absolutely amazing!!! This book is full of suspense, anxiety, and so much information! I’m floored with everything that has happened and finding out about how far back Jared and Ella first met, and what had to happen was out of this world. And that cliffhanger 😳😬🫣. A must read!!
May 4, 2025
Wow! Ella and Jared certainly go through it! constantly on the search for eachother, fighting their way back to eachother. A lot of action in this book, I couldn't put it down! And what a cliffhanger! can't wait for book 12!

Amazing as usual
I don't know if I can plug this into words! I really liked all the twisted turns this story has had. To see this plot both excited me and made me angry for Ella and her hellbeast. To be trapped in that way is a who!e different kind of mental pain.

this is my second time reading this on going series
You are totally lost if you haven’t read the previous books in the series. A great read but very mind challenging after a while - often requiring a day’s rest before continuing .

Come on already. This is really dragging out way too long. Each book is the same thing they are lost and find each other and one or the other sacrifices themselves.
