She knew no chaos…until I claimed her.She was a florist. He was a serial killer.She created beauty. He created chaos.She belonged to nature. He belonged to the underworld.She was an angel. He was the devil.She wanted to escape. He trapped her instead.They played a dangerous game with their lives at stake. Where the winner took it all and the loser burned in hell.Warning: Dark Romance
Miz Mason is by FAR my favorite serial killer author. Her books are always well written and well paced. Her plots are always engaging and twisted. Her anti heroes are always psychos yet strangely lovable at the same time. (lol) Her heroines are always strong and likable. The sex is always hot. There is never any OW drama, and they always leave me wanting her next book ASAP.
And all the above was true for this book as well. It was a well-crafted and gripping story. Both main characters were well developed and intriguing. It was full of twists and turns (the ending took me completely by surprise). I loved seeing cameos of the “heroes” from previous books, and OMG I cannot WAIT for Arson’s book AND the DARK HORSEMEN series. Last, it was all wrapped up in a satisfying ending.
So yea…I loved it and I can’t recommend this author highly enough.
Love this author’s serial killer romances and as usual, this one didn’t disappoint.
This one is all about Callum and Giselle and their rocky road to there own personal happy ever after.
This is both dark and delightful at the same time and I really did enjoy myself.
These books are my guilty pleasure and I always usually read them in one sitting and this one was no exception.
Hot and heavy throughout this addictive read certainly delivers on all fronts.
Callum’s backstory was absolutely heartbreaking and Giselle’s path was no walk in the park either though she definitely didn’t have it quite as severe as him.
Both their interlocking journeys have shaped the individuals they have evolved into.
The first half of this we get to explore Giselle and her past and the second part here its Callum’s turn to take the stage.
Also really appreciated how past characters made brief appearances here it was great to catch up.
This really was an easy read that as usual, I devoured.
I recommend this series so highly every book released is my new favourite.
I voluntary reviewed a copy of Callum’s Hell.

This was my first book by this author and I am now a fan. I love dark, twisted, mind blowing, keep you up all night books. This book was definitely one of those! Looking forward to more books by this author.
Callum has been plotting down to the very moment when he will meet Giselle in person and start making her his. Callum is ruthless, he is a serial killer who takes great pleasure in destroying his victims, he wont take no for an answer where Giselle is concerned either.
Giselle goes from having a fiancee to having an ex-fiancee and catching the eye of Callum. He drives her nuts but he also brings out a side of herself she didn’t know she had. What will happen when she meets the real Callum, will she accept who he is or will Callum have to be more devious then ever?
Riveting. This was so completely different then other books I have read. Callum can be heartless but he has a real soft spot for Giselle even if he does not recognize it. Page turner full of heat and unexpected twists. Checking out more from this author.
Mason is at her best with this book!!! I simply loved Calum and Giselle’s story. I totally got lost in this adventure and didn’t want it to end! Sitting here patiently waiting for Arson’s book!
A Dark Captivating Romance…5+Stars…
Extraordinary is all I can say about this book. I was captured from the very first page to the last page. He was known as Hades as he grew up in hell and she was all that was good. So much pain and anguish, there were times that I found myself cringing for the pain that this man went through. I held my breath, would she be his salvation. He didn’t know love, he denied it until her. You MUST read this book. I plan on reading all of her books.
Okay!! This is my first book by V.F. Mason and it was very interesting and different and I liked it. It took me a couple of chapters to really get into this book. And once I did I wanted to hurry up and know everything and why and who and what. Callum’s life was so horrible and unjust. And Giselle’s was not a great one but she was treated very unfairly. Callum broke my heart over and over again just by what he thinks and the way Giselle is treated makes me so freakin mad I almost threw my kindle at the wall. This book was so twisted and mad and I loved every single moment of it. And I can’t wait to read another book by V.F Mason!!!! By Tina
Never have I loved a Serial killer more.. holy cow Callum was a force to be reckoned with at numerous points within the book I completely forgot about everything and everyone else except him because he just totally outshone the little florist and her naive ways this author did an amazing job with his character and the overall story i wish there was more
If you love dark and twisted, VF Mason is for you!! Callum’s Hell is amazing! Dark, check. Twisted, check. Intense, check. Every single box I love is checked off by this book. I was sucked in right from the start and couldn’t put it down. I loved it!
Callum’s Hell is a story you won’t set aside easily.
Callum is angry and seeking revenge, and Giselle just craves to run away and to have her own life.
Their paths, destined and designed to collide and destroy, and yet, somehow these two damaged souls manage to cling to one another.
My heart truly hurt for these two, for the childhoods they endured, used and manipulated by those who should protect. I couldn’t stop turning the pages because there had to be a reason, I had to know why and who, and Mason knows how to deliver the one two punch.
When I read a story like this I’m usually pretty good at figuring out the whys and what fors, but this one is full of surprises. Bravo!
Get ready, for another delectable read by V.F Mason. I’ve loved her serial killers from the get go.
We have Psychos we can’t help but love. Heroines whom aren’t meek. She keeps us on the edge of our seat, then gives is a hell of a sex scenes that will make anyone pant.. Callum and Giselle’s story is a dark read with twists and turns.
I also loved the fact that we saw more of Callum’s associates. I can’t wait for more. This author can do no wrong in my eyes..
I have been obsessed with V.F. Mason’s dark serial killer series for the longest time as the men are always dangerous and obsessive about the ones they love. I loved Callum and Giselle’s story as it was consuming, edgy and had blisteringly hot sexy times that almost singed my fingers right off the pages! I could not get enough!
Without giving away any spoilers Callum’s Hell was a dark and emotionally twisty story. Told through interchanging flashbacks from past to present, we learn the story of Callum McRae and why he is a remorseless killer who has a longterm agenda with Giselle and their future.
There were times I got lost in some inconsistencies in the story but overall this was an amazing story where the passion between Callum and Giselle was almost visceral. I felt their connection and loved seeing how she became his weakness in a world where he did not allow himself to be weak. I also loved being around the familiar faces of Callum’s associates. I seriously can not wait for Arson and the Four Dark Horsemen’s respective novels!! Bravo! 4.5 stars! ~Ratula

This action-packed romance by one of my favourite authors in this genre never fails to disappoint. A book where the antagonist becomes the protagonist and where revenge is the main dish of the day served cold.
Giselle Walker is your modern-day Cinderella, trapped in her wealthy family’s shenanigans. She was supposed to be married to Kevin but her evil younger sister snatches her fiancé right under her eyes. When she has no choice but to go along with her grandfather’s draconian orders, someone who’s been watching her from a distance makes his move. Is he the Prince Charming to her Cinderella or is he the one who will make her suffer even more?
Callum MacRae is a successful business entrepreneur who looks like he couldn’t ask for more in life. However, he has a dark and horrific past. Emotionally and physically scarred from his childhood nightmares, he plans the most dramatic revenge on those who he thinks wronged him. His other persona as Hades the serial killer has earned him a fearsome reputation, but where does he draw the line when it comes to the woman who has stirred this unknown and strange feeling from him?
This dark romance is narrated in dual points of view, interspersed with Callum’s traumatic childhood memories (this might cause triggers to some readers so just to warn you) and Giselle’s younger years. The author successfully narrates a tale of revenge and steamy romance with a seamless and tight plot. Callum’s character development is noteworthy, his early memories as a young helpless victim to a survivor who becomes a serial killer; from a child who learned to stave off his emotions to a grown man who slowly regains something more important than revenge. The chemistry between the main characters was off the charts.
Mason surely can write super hot love scenes and at the same time, vividly narrates torture scenes littered with blood and gore and makes you take it all in stride.
If you are familiar with this author’s other books/series, some of the memorable characters like Micaden, Lachlan, Arson etc. make a special appearance in this book. If there is one author who can make you fangirl for a serial killer and fall for his ruthless charm, V.F. Mason can turn you. In the mood for a fast-paced, romantic thriller with an ensemble of sexy serial killers that can potentially set your knickers on fire? Then this is the perfect book for you. Highly recommended!
This was another fantastic read from VF Mason! Callum is definitely one of my favorite characters now. Callum and Giselle’s story is so dark and twisted. This book is well-written using different time periods to give you a glimpse into their pasts. You get to see how these characters turn out the way they do. Reading about Callum’s past broke my heart and while Giselle’s past isn’t as tragic you can’t help but feel for her too. This author does an amazing job at telling these types of stories and makes them so unique. I would highly recommend this book!
Hes a serial killer driven by the desire to see people suffer. He doesn’t believe in the waiting game, especially when direct action gets results quicker.
All her life shes been a bird in a cage, controlled by one person or another. Hes her choice, can she keep him, after all hes perfection isnt he?
Cameras and shadows. He sees her, he watches her. Shes perfect to him. He shall have his Queen.. or will he?
Twists and turns, murders and violence, love and flowers this book HAS IT ALL!
I love V.F Mason and her ruthless killers, and I think I’ve just found my new favourite!
Callum is thirsty for revenge, and truly believes he is unable to love, but I disagree hes more than he thinks he is.
Giselle the girl no one wanted, no one loved, who wasn’t good enough no matter what. Her heart belongs to the rarest of flowers that bloom in the prettiest gardens.
Two fantastically damaged characters that have alot more in common than either of them realise.
I loved watched him circle her like a lion would a gazelle, knowing any moment he was going to pounce.
The angst and drama pulled me in. The rising death count and drip fed revenge plans kept me on the edge of my seat second guessing everything, and lastly their love that wasnt a love slowly both broke and shattered my lil dark heart.
A perfect read for those who reside in the darkest corners, who’s hearts are purple verging on black.
I cant wait to hear more about Arsen and the four horsemen later in the year!
A gripping read. Unique storyline with twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat. I am so glad I took a chance on this story and author. Callum and Giselle’s emotional journey for love is not for the faint of heart. Not to mention the situations they find themselves in. The pain they endure to get where they are engulfs you and you start feeling for these characters, even if you do not want to. A must read if you want a darker, suspenseful romance that you will not be able to put down.
Callum’s Hell by VF Mason is one serious mindblowing suspenseful romance read; one that even after I read it, had me questioning what I had read and had me in serious book withdrawals. I don’t want to give much away but OMG , this isn’t a love story but so much more!!! Its a case of pain, possession, and huge amounts of control. Callum is coming for his queen Giselle. Did anyone think it would be simple for him to just go about “getting ” her? Nu uh… theirs was a completely complex and torturous situation but trust me, his feelings for her were quite Obsessive. The King must get his Queen or the kingdom will be razed to the ground. This is a love story even though it didn’t start out that way. It’s filled with mind games, heartbreak, secrets, drama, angst, twists/turns, action and yes- and an epic climax. I enjoyed the characters, amazing plot and the chemistry between Callum and Giselle. Now I’m super excited for Arson’s upcoming book!!!!
My Rating: 4.8 stars *******
4.5 tortured stars!!
This author has a way with words. How does she make me fall in love with a group of serial killers, I have no f’in clue!
This book is dedicated to Callum. Callum (like all the other guys in the underworld stories) has massively fucked up past. Callum broke my heart. Callum healed my heart, damn him. The world let down Callum AND Giselle. But Callum will get them ALL back..
“Giselle can’t do anything but be a monster’s lover, even if it will kill every part of her soul.”
This book is wonderful. As per the usual, I am not sure if I maybe am missing this intellectual part in my brain but early on in these books I get a little confused or maybe discombobulated, but once I get my bearings I am good to go. There is so much to take in. So much horror and hurt. I shed tears. I laughed. I got angry. Once the story starts to unfold and you are let in, you will not be able to let go. I became obsessed.
I love this author and the way she can translate from the intelligent psychos. This will definitely have triggers and something’s may make your stomach flip but in the end it worked out. Even Hades agrees.
**I received this book as an ARC and in return gave my honest review**
This book was so dark and so good! Callum’s childhood story broke my heart. No child should ever have to go thru what he did. Giselle had a slightly better childhood, but it was far from perfect. Both of these characters had painful pasts and had been hurt by the ones who are supposed to love you most. I hated all of her family, except for Grandpa! We get to see more of Arson and Santiago in this book too, and now I can’t wait to read their stories!
I loved seeing Giselle and Callum together…. and that ending nearly broke me! This book will make you feel all the feelings! If you like dark romance, I definitely recommend this one!
Callum and Giselle were perfect opposites. Callum is a anti-hero serial killer. Giselle is a woman of light and goodness. The sex was hot, the plot engaging and kept my interest throughout the story. A really great read for dark romance fans.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
