Falls Boys: Hellbent One Review: Just The Beginning - Reading Falls Boys was like coming home from a long trip away and needing that deep rooted nostalgia that only home can provide. I fell easily and helplessly into this book from the moment I opened its pages unable to break away until the last word was read. This story is just the start to the next generation, but Pen started us off with a bang. Bringing back everyone we’ve missed and bringing in some new people that we didn’t even know existed. This book was the perfect mixture of Devil’s Night and Fall Away meshed together into one non-stop adrenaline ride, with just the right amount of intrigue and mystery to keep us salivating for more. Hawke was an unexpected delight. I loved his character growth and really seeing him struggle through his issues. It brought levity and realness to him in ways that only Pen can provide. He’s equal parts strong and determined but lost and broken, and that dichotomy was so poignant and raw it took my breath away. I wanted to throttle a couple characters in this book for talking badly about Hawke, they took his weakness and exploited it and ridiculed him for it instead of supporting him and giving him what he needed. Aro was the first one to give him what he needed, and I’m not surprised by that one bit. Aro is the perfect contradiction to Hawke. She’s wild and reckless because she needs to be. But she’s also smart and kind. Patient and loving. She is the missing piece to Hawke in more ways than one. They fit together perfectly. I could feel the tie that binds them in similar ways it did his parents. Juliet was the first person to truly touch Jax, one that he allowed to in ways that no one else did. And Aro was the same for Hawke only she’s allowed to touch him. I died for that past and present connection. Really bringing home the fact that this may be the next generation, but their parents are still well and truly in the picture. I’ve been impatiently waiting for this series since I finished the Fall Away series. But honestly, I’m always impatient when it comes to Pen’s books. The worlds she creates are layered with so many things, memories, moments, people, places, events. She effortlessly weaves both past and present together in so many ways, that it feels as if you are living through two different stories in one and I’m an addict for more. I can’t wait to see where she takes this series next. We got a small glimpse at the very end of Falls Boys just enough to really make us desperate in the best ways. But if that book turns out half as good as this one than we are in for a real treat. And I for one am dying for it. While this can technically be read as a standalone, I wouldn’t recommend that as there is so much happening that without the back story you run the risk of getting lost. Now having said that, The Carnival Tower is coming alive once more! Review: Mixed feelings - So I took the night to collect my thoughts, and I still don't know how to rate this - there's a lot going on in the story, and a lot going on in my head. Let's start with this: I'm a first-timer! I've been meaning to check out Douglas' work for years now, and this seemed like the perfect place to start. It's a series starter the DOES pick up a fresh story, but... wow, yeah, not really a standalone, lol. If you're a longtime fan of Douglas' work, chances are that you'll have your own opinion on the storyline, but there are a LOT of characters to keep track of, so many snippets of history that you'll be scratching your head if you're not familiar, and this doesn't actually wrap everything up with a neat little bow. I was legitimately confused sometimes, and based on other responses to this, it's not just because I'm new to this world. Some things just don't make sense. But you know what? The writing was immensely bingeable, and I found myself pushing through the confusion repeatedly because I was honestly curious to see how things turned out. So, this is neither a win nor a loss for me; it provided me with a solid reading experience, but I can EASILY identify like 20 things that didn't work for me. The story follows Aro, a teenager who has grown up taking care of herself. Every day is a battle, but she's got family to provide for, so she perseveres - at least for now. Aro is convinced that she'll die young (she IS in danger at every moment, either from her drug-dealing boss or the cops), so she doesn't hold back. Her latest incident might've gone too far, and Aro soon finds herself mixed up with a group of wealthy teens from the other part of town, including the do-gooder former class president, Hawke. Aro has heard all about Hawke, but she never expected to be drawn to him. Aro came into Hawke's life like a wrecking ball, and she is dismantling everything he thought he knew about himself... possibly in a good way. Let's talk about what I loved for a minute. This hits the ground running from the first page, and it was a high octane read after that, even if I couldn't tell you what the actual plot is about, lol. It's got a suspenseful feel, definite new adult vibes, and an opposites attract dynamic that worked. I loved how well Aro and Hawke complement each other, and more focus on the swoony side of their relationship probably would've made this pretty great. Well... that and a coherent storyline, because I don't think I'm the only one who is confused. I liked that Aro has experienced so much in her life, and that Hawke is the vulnerable one still grappling with a few things. He's also not a manhoe, which I liked. I DIDN'T like the level of OW drama, or that the emotional connection was so weak that Hawke was still messing around with his ex a significant portion of the way in. That definitely put a damper on the romance, so it was sort of strangers to enemies to reluctant friends to friends with benefits to love. Not enough time spent on the quieter, intimate moments, which really could've enhanced the story. I could write an essay on the things that bugged me or the level of confusion I felt while reading, but what I'm trying to say is that there's a lot of good stuff going on in the story, and it was strangely compelling for me. Perhaps it would flow better with a reread, I don't know, but I genuinely liked a significant portion of the book, even if I felt lost many times. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #592,249 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #957 in New Adult & College Romance (Books) #1,589 in Coming of Age Fiction (Books) #2,233 in Interracial Erotica (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 6,039 Reviews | ## Images ![Falls Boys: Hellbent One - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/813gxcgf6JL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just The Beginning *by A***� on March 23, 2022* Reading Falls Boys was like coming home from a long trip away and needing that deep rooted nostalgia that only home can provide.

ENIGMATIC! *by C***) on March 29, 2022* Penelope just hooked me with the promise of intrigue and danger wrapped up in familiarity. You ever move away from your hometown and then come back YEARS later...and it just feels so much like coming home. That nostalgic feeling of knowing where everything is and seeing everyone yet you know nothing because during your absence...things changed! There's a whole new crew running the show and their games are much more intense than when you were last really there. You almost know what to expect yet at the same time, the intensity has been upped to unknown levels and it's almost like there are no boundaries anymore so it's almost like walking into an unknown situation completely blind. Yea, that pretty much sums up Falls Boys for me! And I can't begin to tell you how much I loved this intense, adrenaline-filled feeling that almost every scene in this book left me with. I've been reading Fall Away since 2014 and the moment I knew there would be a second gen; I've been dying for these kids' stories! I was anxious to step back into this world but I had no idea where she would take it...now having finished Falls Boys I can't imagine their world in any other way! It was perfection...I won't go into any single bit of it because my review would quadruple in size but also I am a firm believer that you should experience this book the same way I did. 100% spoiler free! But we will definitely talk about Aro for a minute! Aro Teresa Marquez!! This badass girl that changed everything for Hawke Trent! Remember her name!!! This girl is EVERYTHING a heroine should be! I truly believe that for the rest of this series we are going to see this girl accomplish some amazing things! I loved her boldness, strength and the dedication she had at such a young age to the ones most important to her! I can't even lie, not once did I dislike this girl! At all! Curious about the path she was going to take....perhaps! But each and every time I was so eager to see what she would do! Hawke has always intrigued me and I loved getting to REALLY see him! His inner thoughts revealing so much more than you could have ever imagined! Be prepared to swoon a bit, because this guy just showed up his dad and uncles! Falls Boys was a WILD return to a favorite world....that's just SO MUCH MORE than it was when we left it years ago! If you loved the original Fall Away crew and you also loved Devil's Night then I think you will fall HEAD OVER HEELS for this one! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/417257015-falls-boys-hellbent-one](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/417257015-falls-boys-hellbent-one) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
