Received as an ARC in return for my honest review.
💀 Why choose
💀 Dark romance
💀 Shopping list of triggers
💀 All of the kinks
These cliffhangers are going to be the bloody death of me! If you thought Chaos was dark then you’re in for a world of fun with Mayhem 😏 The one thing you can safely say about Ashlynn as an author is her books are never boring, I was hooked…..hooked I tell you!! This was the epitome of an emotional rollercoaster that had me sobbing at times, it is so well written it’s not even funny. If you’re after something that is gripping, spicy and leaves you broken in the best way possible (that sadistic self torture kid of way) then this is 100% the book for you.
How long do I have to wait for book 3???? Whatever it is I think it’ll be too long, I’m having withdrawal symptoms already 😫

Well sh¡t Ashlynn… That book definitely put me through the wringer but it was worth EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF HEARTACHE. That ending is totally not what I was expecting in the best possible way. I can’t wait to see where you take Jade and her guys next.
If you have triggers then read the TW list…cuz there is a lot…
Well done Ashlynn…imma be in a book hangover for awhile with that ending…The spice was absolutely fabulous 🤩 makes me want a tattoo 😂

Whoa! 🤯 What an amazing, thrilling, enticing, captivating read! This series has me hooked from the first book. I have to say that Mayhem has been my favorite read so far. The spice, the plot, the characters, its giving DARK ROMANCE perfection! Here are some tropes:
- Why choose x3?!!! 🤤😩
- Dark Romance
- ALL THE TRIGGERS
- One bada$$ FMC
- 3 Droolworthy men, each with their own PIERCED🍆
- Touch her & 🪦 vibes
- 💦🌊🐱
- Criminal Families
And so much more! It’s available on KU. I am heading on to read book 4 and will be submitting for a chance to ARC read book 5!!! If you’re seeking all the spice, heavy on the TW’s and a rollercoaster ride with all the cliffhanger’s then you need to read this series ASAP!
P.s. No shade to Collen Hoover because I have loved and read many of her books… but if she could make it on Tiktok’s top trending books, WHY IS THIS NOT BLASTING ON TIKTOK! 💁🏻♀️🙅🏻♀️

First of all, the title for this book was spot fcking on! Complete Mayhem throughout the entire thing! After Chaos, Jade spirals, “The Carver” comes out to play, betrayal after betrayal and STILL so much mfing spice. I think I went through every emotion there is reading this! I LOVED Jameson so much 🥵 He’s a fcking psycho in all the best ways. When it came to Spade, I melted over his cinnamon roll side, but Dario (my absolute favorite in Chaos) pissed me off! Yes, he makes up for it in the end, but still.
Mayhem was a fantastic read that leaves you on the edge of your seat with the plot and dripping from the spice. There’s a grocery list of triggers so please make sure you check that out first. It’s very heavy in many ways, but I personally loved it 🖤

Jade and her men are back, things have gone dark. Mayhem is a rollercoaster ride of emotions. You will be mad and cry, scream. It's filled with love, hate, secrets, and lies. There are so many twists and turns in this book. It does end on a cliffhanger, be prepared. If you loved Chaos then you will love Mayhem. I highly recommend reading, the level of spice in this book off the charts. Please check your TW Mayhem is much darker than Chaos.

Over all enjoyed this audio. I will say the male voice captures the characters a lot better . My only draw back was between the male characters the voice changes didn’t match in my head (Reid ) was a little high pitched . My only complaint.
That emotion in this chapter was brought out even more with audio. Ripped my heart out in two even more than before 😭

Jade and the guys continue their story as she spirals out of control, uncovers new secrets, and makes the biggest mistake of her life…(or so she thought) Now, she must face the consequences..
Chaos (the 1st book in this series) had me absolutely hooked to this story, and the guys are DEEEEEELICIOUS!!! Jameson (Jamie) is the bloodthirsty psycho of her trio but he absolutely WORSHIPS Jade in all her forms.. which shows A LOT in this book!! *wink,wink* Spade, the sweet, quiet one.. goes through so much in this book and it HURTS to follow along with it… man… my heart hurts for this man.. and we get to see the ..not so sweet side of him too! Dario, is LIVID over what Jade has done and ends up signing his life away.. to the “Elvira-looking hussy”.. so much happens in this book and I don’t want to give too much away.. and yet again we are left on a MASSIVE CLIFFHANGER!!! I cannot wait for Bedlam to come out!!

This book will have you feeling all the emotions through the whole thing, there is mega plots and twists that you wont see coming and will leave you reeling..
You will weirdly love the carver more after this book, and impatiently wait for the next release as the Cliffhanger... Damn.
I highly recommend this book! But.. please make sure you read the first one this is not to be read as a standalone.. And be prepared your heart might shatter... You have been warned.

Mayhem is a continuation of Jade's story.
This is a college-age, dark romance. This is a new author I have been reading and she is good. The suspense is on-point. Ashlynn gives you just enough to keep you guessing. Jade is in love with three damaged men who are not what they seem. I was holding my breath wondering should Jade love these men. Are they trustworthy? Their fathers are the worst of the worst. All their fathers make them feel like puppets on a string who have to do “every” disgusting debauched job that has to be done. Will the boys escape their father’s clutches or are they just as evil as their fathers. Ashlynn I know there’s a mystery with Kayla. I am rushing to “Bedlam” to see if I am right

Omg! Another great read, another cliffhanger that has me begging for more. I am so hooked on these characters and the story. The character and story development is just perfection. The trauma and heartache definitely continues in this book. This is not for the faint of heart. Definitely take the trigger warnings seriously. I cannot wait for book 3 and am kicking myself that I didn’t wait until all books were released. I really hope these four and all loved ones involved find the peace they so greatly deserve.
I want to talk soo much about this book but don’t want to give away spoilers. The spice, chef kiss, the way the four of them interact, Amazing. Long love the blood Queen IYKYK 😉

Holy crap. That’s how you start a book. 😱
There was an incredible amount of destruction in this book. Physically, mentally, and emotionally, the things done were horrific. It was hard to keep going. Not because of triggers, but because my brain and heart were never given a chance to recover from the previous event. It was full on pandemonium from start to finish. Then the bottom corner of my Kindle says page 200. There are only 266 pages of this book. So much was left unresolved. Questions were left unanswered. My heart was flipping the fuck out. That ending!! Are you kidding me?!?! Yes, it states there will be a major cliffhanger. That didn’t deter me from reading this. Why? Why Ashlyn?!?!

If you haven’t read this series, start with Chaos. You don’t know what you’re missing out on. The MMCs are fire and the FMC is such a baddie. In a lot of books you get female characters that cater to the whims of the guys. This book is not one of them. And Jamie is utterly delish!

Absolutely devoured this book couldn't put it down once I started. Can't wait for the next book to be released.

Yeah, I am so glad I'm reading this when I already have the next one out, because if I had read that ending without the next book I would probably have broke my kindle 😂.

I have to say, I have just recently stumbled upon Ashlynn’s Series and let me tell you. I’ve never read anything so fast. This series has kept me on my toes, only wanting more. I just finished and have already started “Bitter Sweet Symphony”. I cannot wait until December.

First off I gotta thank ashlynn for this arc opportunity. Second definitely read book 1 first & all the triggers too , ends on a cliff.
Ughhhhh... This book had my emotions going crazy ,I'm still very stunned by the things that have happened in this book. It's very fast paced, and spicy and some tip I felt like there was a lot going on at once (in a good way). Hopefully in bedlam we get so.e more spade and Dario action. With that being g said I'm excited to see what's next to come for jade and the guys.
Quotes I like: "I know you said we can't go to your house, but we have to. Its carving season and I will do what needs to be done to keep you safe."
"this is your fault. You broke my heart and now I'll take yours. If she's dead then so are you."

Argh Ashlynn why you want to do us this way, ugh that cliffhanger!
This book...oh my dear baby jesus get ready for this book, because it is fast paced, twisty af, spicy and most of all v¡olent, so check those triggers, because yeh they're in here.
Whew I feel like my heart is racing with how intense and real af sh¡t went down in the last 2 chapters. This arthur just blows my mind with the way she tells a story no wonder she's one of my one click favorites.
This was so good I couldn't put it down once I got started, and I swear I probably didn't blink when all the crazy started happening in here.

Okay but y’all.
First.
The Carver. THE👏🏽CARVER👏🏽
Like holy moly macaroni and cheese that man is UNHINGED.
Like. Not un hinged. I mean UNHINGEDDD.
I went from laughing to turned on several times 🤣🤣🤣
And I was absolutely here for it.
When I tell you I think I experienced every single freaking emotion in this book, like completely different from how it was in chaos.
Like the same in some ways but different.
Like one second your panties are wet, next your sobbing then you’re ready to throat punch something. No in between 💀🙈
Like literally from one page to the next I was crying then 💀🤣
Talk about taking me on an emotional ride Ashlynn. 😏
Onward.
Im definitely over these cliffhangers. Like ya girl needs answers. 🥲
BUT I know the wait is worth it.
Spicy is an understatement for what these characters do to each other. 🥵
Like. For real.
Also. Was definitely here for the MMF ish scene.
Gonna need more of that. STAT.
Side note.
The title of this book is so freaking accurate. Like
Jade & the guys literally caused Mayhem. And it is DARK.
⚠️Like check your trigs.
I had to keep up cause man they were all on bloody missions. 🫠
Now. While lots of spice, we got a good plot going that kept me completely engaged and on the edge of my seat.
It was perf.
Anywho. Ready for more cause like I said, ya girl needs answers. 🙋🏽♀️

I devoured this book in one sitting of 5hrs!!
ASHLYNN……… WTF!!
Firstly, you are put in a choke hold by the action & build up of suspense…
Secondly, your heart gets ripped out, thrown on the ground, & stomped on…
Thirdly, the spice gets thrown in there to remind you, your heart IS still beating… and
Lastly, you reach the last 10 chapters and you’re completely broken, torn apart and your soul gets ripped from your body!!
ASHLYNN…. They better make the world BURN…
YOU COMPLETELY BROKE ME!!
Now I need Book 3!!!

Are you looking for a fast pace, action packed, dark romance book?
Look no further than Mayhem. Book 2 in the Kings of Chaos & Mayhem series.
I cried, I yelled, I couldn’t breathe… That dang ending leaves you on another cliffhanger just like book 1 but freakin worse!
Ashlynn’s writing is amazing. She makes you feel everything her characters do. Literally transports you into their world. These books have everything. But, they are very dark so make sure you check the 2 pages of warnings before you read and don’t ignore them!

I was so excited to read this and at just 35% into the book I was already feeling everything! The way this book had me going through so many emotions at once was insane! I have some wordssss for Ms Ashlynn! Every time I thought everything was finally ok in the book something else happened. As much as I’m still not a fan of Jameson either, he grew on me at times. I loved it. It definitely lived up to its name. Mayhem throughout the whole book! The spice and banter between all of them was hot. Some spice I definitely did not expect and it kinda was an ick for me but I just pretended it was something different and I was fine haha Overall the book left me heartbroken and I never really get like that over a book. That ending was crazy and I am so impatient for the next one. I need it nowwww 😭😭
Favorite quotes:
“I’ve never loved anyone the way I love you. I know we both made poor decisions that caused severe consequences. But I need you to understand that after this is over, I’m going to figure a way out of this contract because I cannot spend another day without you in my arms. I refuse to give up, but I need you to fight for us, too. Don’t give up on me.”
“Shut up before I fuck you into submission.”
“I hope your future wife likes the way my pussy tastes.”
“I promise I’ll keep you safe. I will die for you! Don’t ever fucking question your safety with me,” I spin on her, pushing her against the wall, holding her face with both of my hands. I press my forehead against hers, taking a deep breath as havoc ensues around us. I’d rather be the one creating Bedlam with her. This little creature stole my heart in ways no other woman has, or ever will. My world starts and ends with her, and no one will ever come in between, or else I’ll reign Anarchy on this earth and burn it down until she’s with me again.”

Omg I loved Chaos and I had a hard time getting over that book but wow Ashlynn you did it again. In Mayhem
Jade and her kings are on a wild roaster coaster and the plot just gets better the more you read. You’re an amazing writer. The plot, the spice, the way you can make our minds see what happening. It’s all very brilliant. I can not recommend you highly enough to anyone looking for a good book. Can’t wait to add the paperback to my collection of trophies next to Chaos and differently can’t wait to see how this ends i

Omfg um... ashlynn what the hell lol. If you liked the 1st book you'll love this. This woman knows how to write. Just when you think its safe to put it down and sleep, nope, cliffhanger for the next chapter. My God ashlynn can write the hell out of a book, the spice, the characters, the plot. There's never a dull moment. You are my instant buy author
May 19, 2024
This book!!! Omg, when I thought it couldn’t get any better than Chaos (The first book in the series), Ashlynn said HOLD MY BEER. This book is not for the faint of heart, check your triggers. All three pages of them! Or if you have no triggers, go in blind, it is more fun!! Prepare for the spiciest of spice and a rollercoaster of emotions. And the cliffy is the mother of all cliffy’s! You have been warned! Ashlynn you absolutely KILLED it!!! Can’t wait for the next one!!!!
April 1, 2024
Make sure you have tissues on hand for this one, especially for the crazy cliffhanger. It is much darker and much more emotional than chaos was. The whole book is just "er" spicier, wilder, hotter, angrier. The plot is still plotting!
April 2, 2024
I stayed up til midnight reading
Make sure you have a toy and some Kleenex
If you thought chaos was a ride buckle up
Seriously a 5 star
The spice was super spicy
And the plot
The twists in it
Bring your Kleenex

If you thought chaos was a ride buckle up
Seriously a 5 star
The spice was super spicy
And the plot
The twists in it
Bring your Kleenex

Holy crap. This book absolutely wrecked me! But by god was it freaking worth it. Prepare yourself for the absolute MAYHEM that happens during this book.
I will probably never recover from the emotional rollercoaster that Ashlynn put me through until I have the rest of the series in my hands.
READ THE BOOK… It’ll only hurt a little bit. In all the right places. Because that thing that Jamie does to Spade and Jade…
The spice? 🥵🌶️
The emotions? 😳😏🤭🫣😭😛😬😰🤕
Worth it?? Y E S
Spice rating: 4.5/5
Character Development: hard to rate currently, but I’ll give it a 3/5
Overall Rating: 5/5

Phew. Wow.
This was a step deeper than book one.
This will make your emotions yo yo the whole way thru. Certain areas will make you literally cry out... And I'm still having trouble believing those bits happened....
But this has far more Trigger Warnings than the first, so I'd take a real look at the front of the book where they are.
Nothing stays the same for any of them. Not even Kayleigh.
Jade - I'm not sure how she's still standing with everything she's put thru.
The King's themselves go thru their own trouble, but it all connects with Jade eventually.
We finally meet The Carver.... The other side to Jameson who is his exact opposite and a scary MF. But a new nickname is born for jade - Blood Queen to go with the Blood King.
Alot changes, alot happens. Just when you think, finally they might have reached a point to get thru it all TOGETHER... Something else happens.
The spice is off the charts with this. The RH is much more practised in this book, with the foursome spending their spicy scenes all together.
I don't want to say anything that really happens as it will spoil it, but I read this in one go. It's one of those I really didn't want to put down.... So I didn't...!!
Im starting to try and put things together but then another factor comes into it to add another piece that throws me off again!
I love it!!
I'm on to the next!!!!!

This book is exactly what it states, absolute Mayhem. Despite the trigger warnings being three pages long, I didnt think it could get darker than Chaos, and I could not have been more wrong.
The way this book had me in such a state has me questioning if I'm a little bit of a masochist the way I loved every second of the emotional torment. I lost count the number of times I yelled WTF, because what the absolute fuck?! I love that so much could have been avoided if folks had space to breathe and have actual conversations, but no, emotions where high and then she got high and then everything got fucked and got fucked some more (literally because the spice was off the charts.)
I love Ashlynn's writing. The way she seamlessly flipped around all of the Kings personalities and we got to see the side of them that is shown to everyone else. Our emerald eyed beauty was definitely going through it and just kept getting hit after hit. I don't normally cry for dark romance but this one got some tears from me.
Once again, we were left with a cliffhanger, and once again, I was screaming WTF, because WTF?! I can't wait to read the next book fast enough.
