The most controversial characters from Brenda Hampton’s bestselling novels are back to shake things up in Hell House Returns. This time, there is a million dollars on the line. Scorpio from the Naughty Series, Chase from Don’t Even Go There, Roc from the Full Figured Series, Keith and Evelyn from BFF’s, and Mr. President from the Black President Series are all seeking to get a piece of the pie. But money may not be their only mission. Some are there for one thing, others for another. Jada from How Can I Be Down? will have to keep everyone in order, but if she can’t control her slick mouth, there is no way possible for her to keep these troublemaking characters in line. Full of head-spinning drama, lots of temptation and non-stoppable laughter, Hell House Returns will bring you to your knees!

This was a sure fire made for the screen story. There was a lot going on with these characters. I was glad to see the Prez take part in this segment. While this was my first time reading the Hell House series, I was familiar with the characters from other books. Good deal to have them all together. Great entertainment!
Another Good Read! Scorpio, Jade, ROC, Kieth, Chase, Evelyn and The Black President Stephen are taking a break from their loved ones to embark on a develish good time in the Hell House. A lot of Shade will be thrown. Who will survive this trip to the house?
I loved this series it will have you laughing throughout the book
Excellent job Brenda Hampton can't wait for the next book.
I enjoyed this novel just not as much as the other Hell House series books. They were all too laid back definitely not enough drama but an ok read. I'm interested how Ms. Hampton will wrap it all up I'm sure it will be in true Brenda Hampton fashion!

Some of our favorite characters from Brenda Hampton 's different five star series are back in this drama fueled book.With the return of some past hell house guest mix with some new characters nothing but sheer calamity ensues.
From the very beginning to the end this book was page after page entertainment.Every character is worthy of a conversation and a side eye.The ending was nothing short of climatic ,anticipating the next book to see what Jada will do with this new found evidence that can change the lives of everyone in the house. Another excellent book from one of my favorite authors.
This one left me underwhelmed. I'm not excited about book 5. I was good with it ending with the Reunion. Jada is too much. She's annoying, unfunny, unkind and a bully. Scorpio is the same as always. I've never liked her. Chase's as* is batsh*t crazy! The President's unpresidential behavior was no surprise. Roc I've liked from the beginning. Evelyn is trash and Keith is the bag that holds Evelyn.
