Justified
I’d been called a bad boy by more women that I thought possible. With a don’t give a f**k attitude and a hard muscled body covered in tattoos, I’d seen and done it all. I’d made choices that landed me in prison and into the beds of the wrong women.
Finally, I’d left all that behind. At long last, I had found redemption. With my new found brother by my side and my gorgeous fiancé, this bad boy was starting over.
Or so I thought.
But when terror found its’ way back into my brother’s life, I found myself spiraling out of control.
Old habits die hard.
Some demons just can’t be outrun.
And every action can be…Justified.
***Bonus books, Broken and Shattered included***
This is a panty melting dark alpha male romance. It is a 55,000 word full length book. Don't read unless you like roller coaster ride uncontrollable passion! If you're looking for a HEA this isn't it! I write HAF (hot as f**k) books so if that's what you crave this is the book for you!

OMG Wow we get the final Book in the Dark Series Justified. Ashton Blackthorne never disappoints us either this book is amazing like the rest. You won´t be disappointed with Justified the story flows from each person and how they tell you what they need to.
This book is full from start to finish you won´t want to put the book down, The book
Has love, violence, drugs, lies and plenty of sex in. It is very fast paced going from each person telling their part, we get to hear more about their lives and find out about Sasha too. You should read the two books before Justified to be able to follow the story and to understand the full plot of the series.

When Ash and Ayden go of trying to find someone they believe is important to them they find she is not as easy to find as they thought she would be but they don´t give up. Just when Amber thinks everything is good everything shatters

Everything has been fast going for Ayden and Sasha the sex is great but lately having Sinister living with them is dragging Ayden down and it´s not until Ayden and Sasha talk they understand they both want him gone.
Ayden has always felt a darker side in himself but being with Sasha she is filling the darkness with light so when everything falls apart he trys to find his way back to good for her, but when Ash turns up and takes him to get better with where him and Amber are hiding he feels he has to help them out Ash doesn´t know what it like to do things you know is wrong so Ayden is going to help and make sure they are safe.

Ashton Blackthorne has another hit! This story brings the past back to Amber with an evil vengence. The chemistry between Ashton and Amber is as steamy as ever. Sex scenes are hot off the charts. Ash and his brother have grown closer together and join forces to search for another possible family member. Ayden and Sashas relationship has moved forward surprising them both. Their sex is still as scorching as ever. It was great to see Ash, Amber and Ayden and Sasha move forward only to be thrown backwards by someone from the past. This was a very riveting story, it kept me on the edge of my seat! I absolutely could not put this book down! With the addition of new characters, Ashton Blackthorne pulls you in and keeps you hanging on. LOVED LOVED LOVED this book!

Absolutely loved this book. Another amazing hit. This is the third and final book in this series and I absolutely loved the way it ended . Amazing character chemistry with all the characters. I love how the boys come together to try and find someone important to them . I dislike the way that things go down with Amber but that is what makes this storyline and ending of this series amazing. I love of Ashton writes his books and cannot wait to read more from him. Highly recommend grabbing this one the whole series actually. Guarantee you will enjoy reading. I read this one in one setting it grips you from the beginning and has you on the edge of your seat until the end .

A compelling, thrilling and sexy read that wraps up the Dark Series. Ashton has everything he needs in Amber, a new relationship with his brother, Ayden and a successful business. Searching for his long lost sister puts all the pieces together.
However, demons of the past threaten Amber and Ash's safety, and Ayden's addiction is rearing its ugly head. A story filled with angst, panty melting scenes, love and pain make this a true page turner.

5 Stars
I give Justified by Ashton Blackthorne five stars. This is book three of the Dark Book series and like all of Ashton’s other book it was amazing! You need to read the other two books before you read this one because the story continues from one book to the next. Ashton has an amazing writing style; his writing not only pulls you into the story but it leaves you craving more. The details in this book area amazing and the sex scenes are HAF. So, if you are a fan of dark romance with bad boys this is for you!
Ayden has been through so much in his life that he has an I don’t give a F**K attitude. He has tried to change his ways and thought he had found redemption with his long-lost brother Ashton and the new girl in his life but he was so wrong. Ayden falls back into the darkness that is addiction and has to find his way back out again.
Asthon’s and Amber’s relationship continue to grow and the chemistry between the two is amazing. Amber has decided to open a new Lingerie company that is called “Owned By Ashton” with the funds going to help abused woman and animals. As they are living their lives enjoying each other they have no idea that there is danger just around the coner.
What will happen between Amber & Ashton? Will Ayden & Ashton get closer? Will something happen to one of them? You have to buy the book and read it to find out! If you like HEA then these book is not for you. If you want to read Hot as F**k books then I recommend you read all of Ashton’s books! I Highly Recommend this book!!

Holy WoW.... Yes, Mr Blackthorne has outdone himself once again with book 3 of this series. You are going to be addicted as soon as you finish the first page, your panties will melt (that is if you are wearing any) and you will be a bit hot and bothered so.... Get ready to one-click for purchase.
Ash and Amber are hotter than ever and their relationship is going strong. Amber is working on her new lingerie line and business is going great. She's getting ready to do a launch but something or someone is waiting on the outskirts for the right time? Is there danger? Is this just another bump in the road for them or will this tear them apart? Ayden and Ash are finally starting to work towards a good brotherly relationship and are looking for their sister Amelia. Amber has decided to forgive Ayden for what has happened in the past but can she really get over things that easy? There is so much to this book that I can be here all day long telling you but then I would be a reviewer giving away the story that you are going to NEED to read. If you like hot sex, well written books, characters that you will most definitely like then this is for you. Mr. B never disappoints, he always delivers. I voluntarily read an Advanced Reader's Copy of this book.

Justified is another steamy hot novel by Mr. Blackthorne. The name of the book hints at there being some form of justification to come. This time there is more to the continuing saga. The characters' stories are further developed as each of their stories get even more complex than before.
Just when it looks like things are looking up for Ayden he slips back into old habits that are about to cost him dearly. He has gone from the enemy in my eyes to someone you just want to hold and protect, except you will need to protect him from himself. You just want him to succeed and find happiness at last, but his guilt and pain are overwhelming and heartbreaking. You hope that Ashton can be the rock and positive influence in Ayden's life and help to lift him out of darkness.
Amber's past comes back to haunt her in a big way and my heart hurts for her. She has Ashton but you wonder if he will be enough to protect her and help her heal. She is so smart and strong but seeing her laid low is so sad. She has been through so much. Ashton is the bond that holds everyone together. Ashton and Ayden bond further over trying to locate a half sister that they discover not long after finding each other and may answer some key questions for them both, but Ayden may have knowledge that may shock and rock them all to their core.
In his usual fashion this story has your heart pumping for more than one reason. It takes you on an emotional, heartbreaking ride which is only soothe by the white hot steamy sex scenes, another reason for heart palpitations. There is a twist that has Ayden saving Amber from her nightmare which I did not see coming but at what cost?
Mr. Blackthorne writes with such descriptive language as to make you experience his world in the most intimate detailed way. The depth of feeling he brings wrings out of you every possible human emotion, from pain to sadness, fear and lust with of the chart passion and heat. These books are his story, his life which makes me think he must be an extraordinarily strong person to survive all that he has gone through and remain a caring, nurturing supportive man to his loved ones. This series was so good that I did not want it to end and enjoyed each and everyone of the books. I am so looking forward to what he will bring in future writings.

Just when you thought Ashton Blackthorne couldn't get any better after Wicked Redemption he has proved us wrong with Justified. The story continues with Ashton and Amber as well as Ayden and Sasha. This was a sit on the edge of your seat while reading the book with some HAF scenes!
The story line kept me sitting at the edge of my seat while flipping the pages, I couldn't put the book down. My heart was pounding with the thrilling and suspenseful story line. Both Ash and Amber are threatened from their past while Ayden battles with his addiction demons. Not to mention the brothers search for their sister, uncovering some interesting facts.
To find out what happens you need to read this book, but if you haven't read anything you need to go back to where it all started and read the Insatiable series first!

This was Beautifully written,dark,sexy and emotional watching these characters struggle and overcome their issues with one another and most of all forgiveness.Learning their are more important factors other then yourself and doing something for the sake of others.The life Ayden,Ashton and Amber have had is beyond normal and every time they turn around something or someone is always their to throw them off course.
I really loved how they supported each other and made sacrifices to find out all the truths that was shocking by the way.Great installment of this series and just fantastic writing that keeps you engaged in the story and turning pages right until the end.I voluntarily read a readers copy of this book

Justified delivers! What a long way Ash and Amber have come from who they were in Twisted and Wicked Redemption! Ash, Amber, and Ayden were amazing. It was great to see how Ash and Ayden's relationship was growing, and that no one was truly alone, despite how much they might think they were. Amber and Ash were as strong as ever, and their love was amazingly sweet, yet explosively hot. I loved all the wicked twists and turns this story took. There was so much to the finale, and so much revealed and woven into this well crafted tale of sex, drugs, love, battles, and obsessions. It was a powerful ending to a phenomenal series. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

This was an absolutely amazing read!! Each book just gets better and better! I love the story of Ashs life and how everything that happens leads to something else. Ash and his brother are on a journey together can they find what or who they are looking for??? How is Ash and Ambers relationship through everything going on??? These are questions that where on my mind while I was reading this book!
Although I didn't get all the answers I wanted to know AB left a good cliffhanger for the next book!
This series is too on my list for recommendations!! A MUST READ by all!!!!
I recieved an arc and I volunteered to leave my honest review

I think I fell in love with Ash a little
More with every book, he is one sexy man the way he loves Amber and Ayden, and the search for their possible half sister all Asda to his appeal. This book has a bit of everything, hot sex, excitement, intrigue and the thriller element from Amber's brother. My heart broke for Ayden trying to stay straight and falling off the wagon and getting back up again, taking the blame on himself for everything. It's the ending though, wow!!!! It can't be left there, it just can't

I CAN NOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS SERIES!!! So many twists and turns with more dark, family secrets revealed. As soon as you think you know what's going on, it changes and is totally something else. This series is a page turner and so engrossing. Dark, sexy, panty melting, beautifully written book that you can not put down. You NEED this book/series. This is book #3 and just as juicy as the other 2 books.

Mr. B has become an author i know not to start reading one of his books if i don't have the time to finish! Justified was no different! Mr. B had me hooked from the first page until the very last and chompin at the bit for another installment!
We get to witness love blossom, falling deeply in love (nope not the same people), bonds deepen yet are threatned to be torn apart, there is action and danger, and sacrifice to protect a loved one!
Mr. B's ability to take you on a rollercoaster ride with twists you don't see coming is what makes me love him all the more! I mean the HAF sex scenes had me at hello, but i LOVE the story!
I would definitely recommend both his series!!!!

This book starts off with excitement and action from the get go. The story picks up where the last book ended. Everytime I think things are finally unraveled and questions are answered about Ashton's past, more entaglements occur. Not just for Ash, but Ayden and Amber as well. The author clearly states that this is a story about his life with dramatic elements introduced to add for creative flair, but it leaves me wondering just how much is fact and the rest fiction. Once again I was felt feeling like I hope Ash finally. has his HEA, but the conclusion left me hanging. This book has great creative flow and it was very intriguing.
August 25, 2017
Justified was one hell of a ride. With a well-descriptive plot. You can feel the author pouring his soul and heart into the story. You can feel every emotion and feeling being expressed through each character. The love scenes were scorching hot. More dark past was revealed. And also more information on Amelia was discovered. My heart aches as Ayden was falling back into his own darkness. The love of Sasha is his only way out. Ashton and Amber continue to go through a lot. Questions were left on unanswered. I highly recommend this book. I review an advanced copy of this book.

Twisty Turny in all the right directions
In this 3rd installment of the Dark series we get all the steamy goodness we've come to expect from an Ashton Blackthorne novel. In Justified he gives us even more. Throughout his novels we have met Ashton, Amber, Ayden and Sasha and have watched their relationships grow. Now we learn more of their history. The things that made them who they are. This book is thrilling in the bedroom and out as our beloved characters face their demons, both those within and those without. I hope this is not the last we will see of them.

Reading Justified was a eye opening experience, learning about the background of the different characters in his stories. Learning more about them, and understanding the people they have become. Justified is a emotional journey, and not just for the reader, but for the characters as well. I enjoyed reading this book very much, and look forward to Mr. Blackthorne's next book.

Justified is a HIT!!!
Ashton Blackthorne knocks it out of the park again with his final book in the "Dark" Series. Justified is dark and intense in a way that the other books weren't. Perhaps it's because Mr.B takes a slightly different approach by telling this story solely from each of the males character's POV. Their voices add a raw, masculine energy that seems to heighten the intensity of the storyline. Sinister - You get to step inside his childhood and see what leads a once sweet boy down a path to becoming a contract killer. Mark - We get a peek into the mind of a psychotic who's incestuous delusions have him planning to make his sister his and then kill them all. These moments are disturbing and cringeworthy. Ash - A man who has evolved so much since "Broken". Not so long ago, he was a man who didn't believe in much other than his business and his kinks. He is now deeply in love with Amber and will risk everything for her as well as his brother Ayden. He's desperate to find Amelia, their half sister, to save Ayden from himself and of course to keep Amelia safe from her sexually abusive brother. His desperation is palpable. Ayden - The torment and struggle that goes on in an addicts mind, body and soul as they try so hard to get and stay clean is difficult to comprehend had the picture not been painted so clearly by Mr. B. l had a visceral reaction to the description of Ayden's euphoric highs and his painful lows. I'm gutted that despite his love for Sasha and vice versa that he can't seem to shake his demons enough to keep her. However, her love opened his heart in a way he never felt before. That combined with the love and forgiveness of Ash and Amber makes him need to to be worthy of that love. He vows to take action to keep Ash and Amber safe at all costs. He is willing to trade his own life for theirs which is both heartbreaking and beautiful. This extraordinary book is suspenseful, psychological and most definitely HAF!!!! It's one emotional rollercoaster ride you want to get a ticket for. I highly recommend it and all of Ashton Blackthorne's prior books.

Sinister - You get to step inside his childhood and see what leads a once sweet boy down a path to becoming a contract killer. Mark - We get a peek into the mind of a psychotic who's incestuous delusions have him planning to make his sister his and then kill them all. These moments are disturbing and cringeworthy. Ash - A man who has evolved so much since "Broken". Not so long ago, he was a man who didn't believe in much other than his business and his kinks. He is now deeply in love with Amber and will risk everything for her as well as his brother Ayden. He's desperate to find Amelia, their half sister, to save Ayden from himself and of course to keep Amelia safe from her sexually abusive brother. His desperation is palpable. Ayden - The torment and struggle that goes on in an addicts mind, body and soul as they try so hard to get and stay clean is difficult to comprehend had the picture not been painted so clearly by Mr. B. l had a visceral reaction to the description of Ayden's euphoric highs and his painful lows. I'm gutted that despite his love for Sasha and vice versa that he can't seem to shake his demons enough to keep her. However, her love opened his heart in a way he never felt before. That combined with the love and forgiveness of Ash and Amber makes him need to to be worthy of that love. He vows to take action to keep Ash and Amber safe at all costs. He is willing to trade his own life for theirs which is both heartbreaking and beautiful. This extraordinary book is suspenseful, psychological and most definitely HAF!!!! It's one emotional rollercoaster ride you want to get a ticket for. I highly recommend it and all of Ashton Blackthorne's prior books.

Five stars!!
Ashton has done it again!! Just when I think this series can't get any better.....BOOM!!
Justified is as fast paced as the others in this series and will give you serious whiplash!! That being said, I love all the twist and turns and the uncertainty had me flipping the pages faster. I am currently sunning myself poolside on a family holiday and I haven't been able to put this book down.
Ashton and Amber..........this couple!!! Lord I love everything about them!
When I started this book I was unsure if Ayden would ever truly redeem himself in my eyes.......I believe he has but I am not going to say how or why.....you will have to read it yourself and make your own mind up!
If you have read the other books in this series, you need to one click this.....if you haven't.......go one click them all!!
Bravo Mr Blackthorne, Sir! Bravo!

Amazingly captivating book 3 in the Dark series! I have been anxiously awaiting this book and I was definitely not disappointed, this book pulled me in right from the beginning and kept me glued to its pages until the very end. I love watching all the relationships continue to strengthen and grow: Ash and Amber, Ash and Ayden, even Ayden and Sasha. You get so much in this book, drama, suspense, danger, revenge, forgiveness, and super hot sex scenes!! Can't wait to see what comes next!

This is the last book in the dark series, and wow what a read. It continues delving into the lifes of Ashton, Amber & Ayden, As with Mr B's books the sex is hot but there is thriller and suspense elements thrown in to the mix making for an enjoyable read.
The relationship that Ash and Amber have is fantastic and Ash's relationship with Ayden continues to develope, they are also searching for their half sister.
What an ending, I recommend this book though you should read the whole series fab read.

Once again - he did it!
I've been following/reading Ashton Blackthorne from his first book. They are getting better and better with every new release. Don't get me wrong - all the stories captivate me, but his way of writing feels much more mature. There's a flow in the later stories that I missed in the early ones.
There's a lot happening in 'Justified' - many personal stories that are revealed. Many hot scenes.
I will keep on reading every book Mr Blackthorne releases.

Like a Fine Wine......
Ashton and Ayden grow closer, and looking for their sister. Ayden struggles with his addiction and asks Sinister to leave, because Sasha gives him an ultimatum. At her clothing launch, Amber is approached by Mark, and assaulted. To keep her safe, Ashton and Amber move. A week later Ashton brings Ayden to help him get clean again. Another awesome read by Sir.

The finsl book of the Dark Series delivers!!! Dark, erotic and gritty, Mr. Blackthorne has written his best work yet. The development of Ash and Amber's twisted and erotic story shows that even those who think are either incapable of love or not worthy of it because of their past are deserving of love. The relation between Ash and Ayden to see. Family and love and kink.... the best combo for a happily ever after
