Thanks so much to Paisley Hope and her team for giving me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Read this if you love: • motorcycle club • forced proximity • age gap • forbidden • hate to love • she's undercover • so much spicy goodness
I have loved Dove so much, but Foxx is just the best!!! I knew from the first page that Aiden and Mia will make me fall in love with them and that's exactly what happened. I had an incredible time reading it! Aiden and Mia and fucking crazy throughout the book and I love them so much! The way Aiden loves her is absolutely everything you would want in a MMC. Mia wanting revenge, the lies, but also the hate to love, the caring, the spice!!! I honestly didn't know Paisley could write spice like this. It's sooo incredibly hot!!! Foxx definitely became my favorite from her and I can't wait to see what comes next!
Emilia has lived with guilt since her sister took her own life after a brutal attack by a biker gang. Determined to find the last man involved, her search leads her to Aiden Foxx.
Certain he’s the one, Emilia goes undercover to get close and uncover the truth. But the closer she gets, the harder it is to ignore her growing attraction to him, and the danger that comes with it.
This is the third book in the Soldiers of Bedlam series, and I think it might be my favourite even though I loved Gabriel Wolfe.
The plot was insanely good, and the villains were written so well you couldn’t help but despise them. The protective MMC was everything, tough on the outside but a total cuddly bear underneath.
This one is very spicy, so definitely check your trigger warnings. I couldn’t put it down, Paisley has really outdone herself with this one.
Infinity stars! No notes!! This book was thoroughly enjoyed by not only me but my husband as well and he didn’t even read it 🤪🥵🔥
Just when I thought Gabriel Wolfe was my favourite Paisley man in comes Aiden Foxx and slides right in to top place! This book was everything I wanted and more! I love the whole Soldiers of Bedlam series and this book was no exception
The way Aiden says “Darlin” had me weak at the knees and everytime he spoke I was a sweaty panting mess! I was on the edge of my seat at times and I just loved the whole story! Can not wait for the next book! 🤭👏🏽
Thank you so much Paisley Hope for the chance to be on your team and read this amazing eARC
when both characters are just as unhinged as eachother - Mia & Aiden are everything.
Mia Tyler, the heroine undercover seeking revenge for her sisters death. She enters into the world of the Disciples of Sin, the rival club to the one her brother is Enforcer for. Mia is fiesty, so smart, strong and has spent months training in self defence, she feels an unexplainable draw to danger. Enter Aiden Foxx, the ruthless prez of the Disciples of Sin, who inherited a corrupt and broken club. He’s dangerous, and Mia’s new boss. Paisley has done something amazing with this couple, Mia has traits of innocence, ones in which Aiden craves to corrupt. But she’s also as unhinged and drawn to the flame as he is, they go hand in hand, fuelling eachothers fire and their chemistry is electric. This story is non stop, from twists, action and the most deliciously unhinged spice i think Paisleys ever given us, I could not put this down. It’s dark, emotional and oh so sexy. My kindle highlights are never ending, I included a few on the slides but here’s a few more of my favourite Mia & Aiden moments :
“Make no mistake my little goddess... That which you loathe, you end up weaving into the very fabric of your soul...until you can’t loathe it any longer.” ~ “To thank me...” He nods to the space between his boots. “You kneel.” ~ “I knew that smart fucking mouth was good for something more than back-talking me.” ~ “I would burn the fucking world down around you if you told me you were cold” ~ Thankyou so much Paisley for the ARC of Foxx, if you haven’t already go read the Soldiers of Bedlam series, they’re unhinged, possessive and delightfully sexy.
Another perfect installment to the Soldiers of Bedlam Series. I never thought Paisley would be able to write a man I enjoyed more than Gabriel Wolfe, but Aiden Foxx takes the cake 🤤 and no crumbs were left behind in the devouring that was this book. I’m literally speechlessness and will go and endure my book hangover now.
Title: Foxx Author: Paisley Hope Series: The Soldiers of Bedlam, 3
What to expect: *Motorcycle Club romance *Enemies to Lovers *Alligator voyeurism 🫣
Foxx is my new favorite MC President!!
What started out as revenge and lies, soon turns into protection and love! I love that the main characters actually had conversations with each other, and didn’t just assume they knew the truth about past events.
Very well written and highly recommended! Not absolutely necessary to start with book one, but it does make the story and relationships flow better.
Safety: No OW/OM drama in the form of jealousy, a lot of drama in the form of on page violence. No third act breakup, guaranteed HEA.
Thank you to Edelweiss, the author, and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the opportunity to read and review this title!
ARC Review This was an ∞ star read for me. I’m completely obsessed! This story follows Aiden Foxx, the ruthless president of the Disciples of Sin motorcycle club and a former Navy SEAL whose world is flipped upside down when Mia Tyler walks into his bar. Mia isn’t just a mysterious woman with secrets, she’s tied to a rival club and hiding a dangerous agenda of her own. What starts as suspicion and tension quickly turns into something explosive between them. The enemies-to-lovers tension in this book was absolutely unreal. From the very first interaction between Foxx and Mia, the chemistry was intense, sharp, and completely addictive. Every scene between them felt charged with danger and desire, and I loved how their relationship slowly shifted from distrust to something deeper and far more emotional. Foxx as a character… wow. He’s the perfect morally-grey MC hero, he’s protective, ruthless, and intimidating on the outside, but with just enough vulnerability underneath to make your heart ache. Mia is such a badass FMC, she’s strong, determined, and walking into a world that could destroy her just to get answers about her sister. The motorcycle club world feels gritty and dangerous, the stakes are high, and the emotional moments hit just as hard as the action and spice. I loved the found-family vibes within the club, the tension between rival factions, and the way the story balances romance with suspense. This book had everything I want in a dark MC romance, it was gripping, addictive, emotional, and impossible to put down with the most delicious MMC, YEP Foxx officially owns a permanent spot in my book boyfriend hall of fame. Paisley absolutely nailed it with this one, but let’s be honest whatever she writes is pure gold. It’s why she will forever be on my auto buy list. Huge thank you for this ARC opportunity
I’m at a loss for words right now because wow!! Paisley well and truely blew my mind with this book and saying i’m obsessed is an understatement. Foxx is officially my favourite of the series and I couldn’t get enough of this book.
Mia and Aiden OMG, these two were absolute fire. The banter from their first meeting was elite. I couldn’t get enough of these two and found myself laughing out loud at some scenes, the chemistry was 🔥
Paisley always delivers with the spice but there’s some that will live rent free in my head, the bourbon scene 🥃🐱🥵. But the 🐊 scene 👀 what the helly! My brain chemistry has been altered and what a man Aiden Foxx is 🥵 Seriously the mouth on this man, I was sweating and eating up every minute of it 🥵👌🏼
Mia the FMC, wow. I fell in love with her right away. Her fiery personality stood out immensely and I loved it when she put Foxx in his place, he’d never had that before and what a woman she is. I found pieces of myself in Mia and this is why I felt connected to her and loved her immediately.
Aiden the MMC, 😭 This man is seriously everything. He’s the most unhinged man Paisley has written so far, the things he did for Mia had me melting. He was so protective over her the whole entire time so there’s just something about a rival club relationship that has me weak in the knees.
The whole plot and twists had me on the edge of my seat. I never found myself bored and applaud Paisley for the masterpiece she has created. I couldn’t fault this book if I tried and i’ll be thinking about these two for so long. The epilogue had me thinking…a second gen? 👀🤭 That would be elite hehhe.
Thankyou so much Paisley for the ARC, so blessed to read your work early and what a book this was!
First there was Wolf.e and I loved every moment. And then there was Dove, and I loved every moment. When I tell you, Foxx just hit so good.
“All of this mess for the man you tried so hard to fucking hate.”
There is a thin line between hate and lust. When Mia (Mason Tyler’s sister, the Sergeant at Arm’s for the Hounds of Hell) walks in Aiden’s strip club, looking for the man who ruined her sisters life, she didn’t expect Aiden Foxx (the President of the Disciples of Sin motorcycle club) to own the club. Mia’s mission is to find out who was third man who ruined her sister’s life, and hopes it’s not the man she wants, Aiden.
Holy Aiden Foxx, I was not ready for this. Once again, I was hooked from the beginning, and could not let go. All of it. Mia is fierce and out for revenge. Aiden knows Mia is lying about who she is. The banter was amazing. Mia was not backing down.
Also… did I get a little teary eyed? Yes. Don’t judge me.
The tension leading up, so fantastic. The spice. I mean did you see the list?!? Aiden Foxx is everything and Mia is the one that gets him there.
5⭐️ (ARC) This was my favourite in the series! Paisley Hope does it again. I didn’t actually like motorcycle club books until I started this series and now I don’t think anything else will compare. Foxx is to die for (maybe literally 😉) I was engaged the entire time from beginning to epilogue. Mia and Adrian were unexpected and thrilling to say the least. I’m going to think about some of the happenings in this book for a long, long time. ❤️
The way these two just needed someone to match their freak, and boy did they find it 🤌🥵
Mia is one feisty, strong little firecracker. The way she stands toe to toe with any man trying to bulldoze her 💪 my girl!!!
I LOVED the spice and the push and pull between Aiden & Mia, but the plot twisted in a way I didn’t expect and boyyyy was on the edge of my seat until the end!!!
Tropes: • motorcycle club • forced proximity • age gap • forbidden • hate to love • she's undercover • the spice is SPOOOICYYY
I am a huge Paisley Hope fan. I genuinely don’t think people realize that I could probably post about her books every single day on my Instagram—but that might come across as mildly unhinged, so we try to pace ourselves. What I will say is that I absolutely love the way she writes. You could never convince me she writes a bad book. You can absolutely have your opinion, and I will respect it … but just know that in my mind that opinion is wrong. Respectfully.
So with that out of the way, let’s get into the non-spoiler review.
This is hands down my favorite book of the series.
I loved Mia from the moment we met her. She’s dealing with the very recent loss of someone close to her, and instead of letting grief swallow her whole, she channels it into something else entirely—finding the person responsible. Mia has this unstoppable spirit. She’s fierce, determined, and honestly a complete badass. From the second you meet her, you know she’s someone you shouldn’t underestimate.
From previous books we’ve followed the Hounds of Hell MC, and Mia has grown up around that world. But in this story she’s trying to get in with the Disciples of Sin, specifically Aiden Foxx, who just so happens to be the president of the club.
Through a few carefully pieced-together moments—including the bikes she keeps seeing—Mia manages to land herself a job at the club that Aiden owns. And like any MC story, danger is always lurking around every corner.
Right now though?
Mia’s biggest danger might actually be Aiden himself.
The funny thing is that Mia isn’t really scared of him. She knows what he’s capable of, but she refuses to be intimidated. In fact, I’m not even convinced she’s afraid of what he can do either. She just starts realizing that the things she was told about the club—and what she’s actually seeing—don’t quite line up. The girls working there are protected. There’s no exchanging money for services inside the club. They’re treated well and kept safe, which isn’t at all what Mia expected walking into this world.
There’s a scene in the clubhouse that had me laughing out loud because Mia’s defiance is legendary. That might honestly be the best word for it. She just gives absolutely zero f*cks, and for some reason that drives Aiden absolutely insane.
As the two of them are forced to work around each other, it becomes very obvious that there’s a lot more than tension brewing between them. That becomes especially clear when a less-than-pleasant member of another motorcycle club decides he wants Mia for himself … which kicks off this intense brat dynamic between Aiden and Mia, and it should be pointed out Mia is in fact the brat.
The best part?
Neither of them has the correct read on the other.
The story eventually leads to a cabin in the middle of the woods—and yes, there is an alligator involved. There are also a lot of pet names (which I personally love), a moment where Aiden absolutely loses his mind asking Mia why she’s doing what she’s doing, and why she didn’t bring up who she has hung out with in the past (I won’t spoil it, but if you read it you’ll know exactly the scene I’m talking about), a really meaningful bike run honoring someone who’s gone, and when they get to said destination…a cornfield with real life possibilities.
Tropes and elements you can expect:
• Age gap • Rival MC tension • Ruthless club president • “He makes her his to protect” (swoon) • Virgin heroine • Found family • Brat energy for sure • Protective MMC energy
Honestly, in my opinion this is the perfect dark MC romance.
Do yourself a favor—read it, preorder it, and then join the rest of us in patiently waiting for the audiobook.
Thank you to the author and Publisher for the opportunity to read and review this title.
“I knew that smart fucking mouth was good for something more than back-talking me” …SIR??? EXCUSE ME???
This book?? UNHINGED. In the best way possible.
Mia is coming in hot with grief, rage, and a one-track mind after losing her younger sister—and instead of falling apart, she decides she’s going to burn the world down until she gets answers. And honestly? I respected her immediately. She’s bold, reckless, and has a mouth on her that gets her into trouble…especially with a certain MC president.
Enter Aiden Foxx.
This man is the head of a rival motorcycle club, and from the second these two are in the same room, it’s game over. He’s intense, controlling, and very used to people fearing him…except Mia did NOT get that memo. She challenges him constantly, talks back like it’s her full-time job, and I swear it only makes him more obsessed.
And let’s talk about the dynamic because WOW. This is very much a brat vs. “touch her and die” situation—and Mia is absolutely the brat. She pushes every button he has, and he just…keeps coming back for more. The tension? Insane. The banter? Top tier. The chemistry? I was sweating.
Also—he calls her Rhiannon?? As a Stevie Nicks fan, I was DONE. That detail alone had me giggling and kicking my feet.
What I loved most is that Mia goes into this expecting one thing from the club… and gets something completely different. The women are protected, there are rules, and not everything is as dark as it seems on the surface. It adds this layer of complexity that makes the story even more addictive.
BUT don’t get it twisted—there is still danger everywhere. And when another club member decides he wants Mia?? Oh it’s ON. Aiden goes full protective mode, and the possessive energy?? 10/10. No notes.
There are so many moments that had me losing my mind:
Aiden absolutely snapping and demanding answers from Mia The emotional moments that hit you out of nowhere The banter that had me laughing out loud And THAT cabin scene… Because WHAT do you mean they are out here getting busy with a literal alligator nearby?? Close enough to SEE ITS EYES?? And this man is telling her to stay quiet and relax like that’s a normal situation??? I’m sorry??? I will never recover.
And somehow in between all the chaos, there are these surprisingly tender moments that show just how much these two start to mean to each other. It’s messy, intense, and completely addictive.
Tropes you’re getting: ✨ Age gap ✨ Rival MC tension ✨ Ruthless, protective MMC ✨ Bratty heroine ✨ “He makes her his to protect” energy ✨ Found family vibes
If you want a dark MC romance with attitude, heat, and characters who go toe-to-toe in the best way—this is it.
Final thoughts: chaotic, spicy, and completely consuming. I ate this UP.
First of all, thank you so much Paisley for letting me read an arc of Foxx !! Forever and ever thankful 🥹🫶💗
𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️♾️ 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐞: 🌶🌶🌶🌶
𝐌𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 Mia is put for revenge for her sister's death. She decides to take matter into her own handd and ends up working at a club owned by the man, the myth, the legend Aiden Foxx.
Where do I even begin? I am speechless so I have no idea how to even begin this review. No words that I'll type about this book will do it justice. I binge read this book in 24 hours and I never wanted it to end. I was fully hanging on to every single word I read in this book. Paisley's writing is something else and the worlds and character's she creates are pure perfection.
Paisley Hope, the queen of MC romance has done it again !!! This might be the HOTTEST book I've ever read. No but this is the HOTTEST book I've ever read 110%.
I'm obsessed with Gabriel and Sean but Aiden is something else and I'm completely and utterly obsessed with him. His dirty mouth is like chefs kiss.I love how sassy Mia is and how she refuses to back down. I also love the way she is towards Aiden, sassy and such a firecracker.
I knew this book was going to be spicy and let me tell you, the spice was spiceing like CRAZY. It's well written and it's detailed which I love. It's also filled with heat which I adore. The connection and the tension between Mia and Aiden are of the charts and when you read about it, it's like you're in the book with them, like next to them. I loved the spice and the steamy tension. I love how Mia is always sassy when it comes to Aiden and she has the funniest comments ever.
There is two scenes that lives rent free in my head. The 'run' scene and The gator scene !!! Oh my god these scenes was the hottest scenes I've ever read. The Gator scene is a scene I'll never ever forget. I am so obsessed with this book and I'll never ever stop talking about it.
This book is well written, I loved the plot and it kept me fully engaged in everything that happend. I highly, HIGHLY recommend this book and I loved everything about it. I'm so here for Paisley and her MC romance books because I am so completely and utterly obsessed with them. Holy moly.
Phenomenal, fantastic, perfection, amazing, chefs kiss, off the charts. MINDBLOWING.
Paisley you have once again outdone yourself with this book queen and if I could I would give this book 7 ⭐️ !!!

Tropes: 🧡Dark MC Romance 🧡Rival Motorcycle Clubs 🧡FMC Goes Undercover 🧡He's Pierced 🧡Virgin FMC __________________ Thanks to Paisley Hope, Team Paisley Hope, Sourcebooks Casablanca and NetGalley for the ARC! I received an advance copy of the book and am leaving an honest review. All opinions are my own. __________________ This is book 3 in the Soldiers of Bedlam series and it's Paisley's spiciest one yet! We've seen glimpses of Aiden Foxx from the previous two books and color me intrigued! We get his story and how it intersects with Mia, the sister of the Hounds of Hell Sgt at Arms. I knew going into this one it would be a doozy and I was SO RIGHT!
Mia is seeking justice for her sister Nicola. From both Wolfe and Dove, we get an account on how she is SA'd by rival MC members. The main culprits have been taken care of but Nicola told Mia there was a third man involved but Mia couldn't figure out who. So obviously the best way is to infiltrate the rival MC's club. There she gets a job as a server and encounters Aiden Foxx.
This man HAS to Jax from Sons of Anarchy, but in book form. It wasn't a hardship to picture Charlie Hunnam with loads of tattoos, a leather cut and a pierced peen while reading! Foxx knows that Mia is hiding something but can't put his finger on it. And of course matters are complicated by how attracted he is to her. What follows is the most delicious sexual tension, banter and brattiness from Mia that makes for a flaming hot book.
This is definitely the spiciest book in the series but what I also immensely enjoyed was the mystery surrounding Nicola's attack and who else was there. Reading Mia trying to navigate her family's rival MC and all the not so savoury characters that show up while she's working made for a really fun and interesting read. And then I needed to sit in front of the air conditioning because I thought I was going to erupt into flames.
This series is such a good entry into dark romance and MC romance. I have followed Paisley Hope since her debut Holding the Reins and absolutely adore her Silver Pines cowboy series. I picked up Wolfe because why wouldn't I? I'd read that woman's grocery list. And the rest is history. I love her writing and she has me in such a chokehold with these men and their strong women. You definitely need to pick this one up if you love dark romance and men who are utterly OBSESSED with their women. All the stars, auto reread and auto recommendation.
Thank you so much to Paisley Hope and NetGalley for the ARC 📚 This series just keeps getting better... and I am buzzing to hear we are getting book 4! Wow, 6⭐️ read for me just like Wolf.e and Dove, I just can not get enough of the Soldiers of Bedlam series 👌Hopes writing just clicks for me, just enough explanation but not too much so that it is overbearing. The books are the right length for me and every chapter has a meaning and progresses the story. There is no fluff for the sake of a word count. ✨️ Check TW ✨️ 🌹dark romance 🔥 plenty of spice 💋 age gap 🏍 motorcycle club 😍 enemies to lovers 🍆 he is pierced 🩷 virgin fmc Where do I even start with Mia and Aidens story. From page one I was immediately hooked. I loved the tension, I loved the spice, I loved that despite her inexperience Mia was ready to go all in with hunky Aiden. I found both characters likeable, I was rooting for them and most importantly I enjoyed the storyline surrounding Mias late sister ❤️ This can technically be read as a standalone but in order to get the full story and character background (and cos they are awesome) i highly recommend reading in order. Mia lost her sister through a tragic incident a involving rival MC club and since 2 of the culprits have been taken care of already she isnt going to stop until she idenfies the last person responsible and makes them suffer. She truly believes she has the right man - Prez Aiden Foxx. Mia comes up with a dangerous plan not involving her own brother who is part of rival mc club in order to seek her revenge on behalf of her sister. Aiden is dangerous, former SEAL who runs a tight ship at a gentleman's club where Mia manages to gain employment in order to get closer to the man she believes is responsible. Mia puts herself in grave danger but Aiden is instantly obsessed with her and vows to do what he can to protect her from the real culprit. Aiden is no less dangerous himself though and sparks often fly between the pair. The story follows them on their journey to lovers and seeking revenge. We even have a wild chapter with an alligator 🐊😂🙈🔪 I loved seeing the relationship between Mia her brother in particular at the last few chapters of the book. I loved the epilogue and I loved that some good was able to come from an awful situation 🩷 I would recommend this series over and over and am so grateful for the early copy.
I am actually unwell. Like genuinely need to be studied after finishing this book because what do you mean Aiden Foxx just walked in, said “darlin,” and completely rearranged my brain chemistry???
This is hands down my favorite in the Soldiers of Bedlam series and I did not think anyone was topping Gabriel Wolfe but Aiden said move over and did it with ease. No crumbs. None. I am still chewing on the emotional damage.
We’ve got Mia, fueled by grief and vengeance after her sister’s death, going undercover in enemy territory to hunt down the last man responsible. She is smart, feral, fearless, and has zero self preservation instincts when it comes to walking straight into danger. And then there’s Aiden Foxx, ruthless MC president, morally gray menace, built like a weapon but secretly soft where it counts. He knows she’s lying. She knows he’s dangerous. Neither of them care enough to stop what’s happening between them.
And what’s happening??? Absolute chaos.
The tension is immediate, sharp, addictive. Every interaction feels like it could either end in a knife fight or something significantly less safe for work. The enemies to lovers energy is unhinged in the best way. These two are equals in madness. They feed off each other, push each other, and the chemistry is so electric it should come with a warning label.
Also the spice??? Hello??? I was a sweaty, panting mess. The way this man speaks alone should be illegal. Add in the dynamic between them and I was simply not built to handle it. Check your trigger warnings because this one goes there, but also just know it is deliciously unhinged from start to finish.
Beyond the chaos and heat, the story itself is gripping. The plot is nonstop with twists, action, and villains you will absolutely hate. The MC world feels gritty and dangerous, the stakes are high, and the found family element hits just as hard as the romance. There are emotional moments that will sneak up on you too, because yes I did get teary eyed and no I will not be taking questions.
What starts as revenge and lies slowly turns into something deeper. Protection. Loyalty. Love. And somehow these two actually talk to each other like real people which is shocking behavior for a dark romance and I loved every second of it.
Mia is a full blown badass. Aiden is everything. Together they are pure fire.
Infinity stars. No notes. I am obsessed, emotionally compromised, and fully in my book hangover era.
I genuinely don’t know what kind of blood oath Paisley Hope signed when she sat down to write this, but Foxx had me biting my lips, clenching my thighs, and staring at the wall like I had just survived something illegal.
Being on her ARC team already feels like a privilege. Getting to read this book early felt like being handed contraband by the devil himself.
Mia and Aiden are a full-scale collision. Revenge, lies, hate, obsession, protection, surrender. Every time I thought I had a handle on them, one of them said something filthy or devastating, and I was right back on the floor.
Mia is exactly what you think she is. Smart, fierce, angry, and absolutely committed to the bit. She walks straight into danger with a plan and a grudge, and I loved the hell out of her for it. And Aiden Foxx… good GOD. (convinced he is a god ) That man is the kind of dangerous that makes common sense pack its bags and leave town. Ruthless, possessive, absolutely gone for her, and somehow still capable of making my heart stutter.
What got me the most is that these two are just as unhinged as each other. It’s not one sane person taming a monster. It’s two beautiful disasters recognizing something of themselves in the other and diving in headfirst anyway. That kind of chemistry doesn’t just spark. It detonates. I WAS EXPLODING.
And the spice. Paisley, babe. What exactly were you trying to do to us.
This is the hottest thing she’s written. Not just because it’s filthy, which it is, gloriously so, but because every scene feels loaded. Tension, danger, obsession, power. The kind of intimacy that feels like it could ruin your life and improve it at the same time.
I also loved that underneath all the chaos, there was actual emotional weight. Conversations happened. Truths were confronted. The story didn’t just rely on lust to carry it. It had revenge, secrets, loyalty, and enough tension to keep me speed-reading like my life depended on it.
Foxx is dark, explosive, and completely addictive. It had me daydreaming about a love so intense it leaves you wordless and a little unwell. The kind of love that doesn’t just choose you. It claims you.
So if you like that kinda vibe, you'll be getting all that on July 14th baby.
Paisley Hope, you absolute menace. This one owns me now.
For the longest time I’ve been a Wolfe girlie. I loved Dove, don’t get me wrong, but no one stands a chance against Wolfe, until………… Aiden Foxx came along and took the top spot of Paisley men. Holy Hell. This book was everything I wanted and more from a Solders of Bedlam series.
Foxx was such a wild crazy ride, like insanely good with both of them being bat shit crazy, totally unhinged for each other and the things they do, but figures a Paisley book grabbing me from the start and not leading up till the end. There were villains you couldn’t help but despise and villains you didn’t know were villains until the twist slapped you in the face.
The book starts out with our FMC, Emilia Tyler, who goes by Mia, who’s out for revenge for her sister's death, and trying to figure out who is behind her deaths is a mystery. She’s basically putting a puzzle together but unfortunately missing one piece that is nowhere to be seen. She is out for blood, and from none other than Aiden Foxx, the President of the Disciples of Sin MC.
Foxx is ruthless, who inherited a corrupt and broken club that he’s working on turning around to do good. He’s dangerous and his MC is the rival MC of her brothers, but only soft for her, like a big ole teddy bear. The only way for Mia to get closer to Aiden to know for sure if he was behind her sister’s death is that she must work in his club. What could possibly go wrong???
The way Paisley wrote this story blew me away with heart wrenching romance, action, back and forth, banter, the twists, the emotional depth of these characters, and the unhinged spice. I mean IYKYK They were so drawn to each other in such a way, their chemistry was so freakin electric, I was hot from reading. So many dang highlights.
This one is very spicy, Paisley came to play and didn’t hold back, so I would definitely check your trigger warnings. Paisley has really outdone herself with this one.
Thank you so much Paisley Hope and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the ARC of Foxx and being an early reader.
Foxx will be available July 14th
____________________________ RTC
I never thought I'd see the day where Wolfe would be dethroned, until .... FOXX came into the picture.
I cannot believe that we're on the third book of this series and the stories just keep getting better. This book offers grit and authenticity through Mia and Foxx’s characters, masterful storytelling from Paisley Hope, and a plot infused with emotional depth, completing a perfect recipe of a masterpiece.
Foxx is the third book in Paisley Hope's beloved The Soldiers of Bedlam Series, which delves into the themes of revenge, trust, loss, and loyalty.
The story follows Mia as she sets out on a quest for vengeance and searches for the third man responsible for her sister's attack that led to her death. Her sister’s description involved a motorcycle that belonged to a member of The Disciples of Sin MC, leading to the club's president, Aiden Foxx. While searching for the truth about Aiden through covert means, she finds herself drawn to him and struggles to draw a line between her desire and her main purpose.
With this third installment in the series, Paisley delves deeper into a story that explores the tension between hate and desire, and deception and reality. Encouraging its readers to fully immerse themselves in the characters’ journeys. Mia is the epitome of a woman who is determined and incredibly resilient. Beneath the fesity facade, however, lies a woman who is driven by grief, guilt, and a thirst for peace and justice. Aiden, on the other hand, is portrayed as a ruthless character who eats fear for breakfast and thrives on control. I regard him to be a savvy, dedicated, and morally upright man who puts his responsibilities as president and restoring his club's reputation first. Mia and Aiden's relationship started with tension, like a ticking bomb waiting to explode once truths about Mia are revealed. But with Aiden's compassion, understanding, and commitment to helping Mia, their fate has been sealed, and their bond has become tighter than ever. Their chemistry is undoubtedly explosive. And adding Aiden's obsessive and possessive traits brings all the intense and steamy moments between these two addictive. Hot!🥵
At its heart, Foxx is more than a love story that delves into the themes of identity, justice, and family. It’s also a story that challenges readers to question the nature of morality and truth, and explore how tragedy shapes individuals.
Receiving a complimentary Advanced Reader Copy (ARC) of this book was an honour, and I'm presenting my candid opinion based on my own experience. I am eternally grateful to Paisley Hope and NetGalley for entrusting me with reading this book beforehand.
✨ARC Review✨ Foxx (Book 3 in A Soldiers of Bedlam Series) By Paisley Hope
“Make no mistake my little goddess… That which you loathe, you end up weaving into the very fabric of your soul…until you can’t loathe it any longer. You begin to crave it. Soon, very soon, you’ll crave me.”
“That’s not how you thank me. To thank me, Rhiannon…You kneel.”
That line between hate and want, between mission and pure lust, is barely existent anymore. I hate feeling this out of control, but I’m addicted to having his hands on me.
Aiden and Mia are f***ing crazy and I love them so much for that! They match each others freak! In true Paisley fashion we get the grit, and grim with our MMC Aiden and yet we still fall so hard for this man. And our FMC is so strong and badass! She never gives up or backs down and fights hard until she gets the respect she deserves from Aiden. This time we aren’t following the Hounds of Hell, but instead following the Disciples of Sin. Mia is out to find answers, but instead gets a whole lot more than she was looking for! This book is my absolute favorite of the series so far! Paisley is so versatile in her writing. Having me want to move to a small town and falling for the fire chief and then wanting to find a MC president to ride. I love everything she writes! I wanted to savor this read but I just couldn’t put it down!
I will saw this is a dark story, so please check the trigger warnings first before reading.
Thank you so much Paisley and @teamp for the chance to ARC read yet another banger!!
Tropes: Age Gap Forced Proximity Ruthless MC President Military Man Rival Clubs/Forbidden She’s Undercover Loathe to Love Spice + Suspense
"Be a good girl for me, Mia. Eat all your breakfast."
Aiden Foxx. 🫠 The man you are 😍
Yes. Foxx is my favourite in The Soldiers of Bedlam series. I don’t know what Paisley laced this book with, but I devoured it in less than a day.
Mia has lost her sister and is driven by a need for revenge. That mission places her directly in the orbit of Aiden Foxx, the President of the Disciples of Sin MC. To get close to him and uncover his role in her sister’s death, Mia takes a job as a bartender in one of Foxx’s clubs. She immediately catches Foxx’s eye, though he is sceptical of the front she’s putting up - and rightly so. Mia is the sister of a member of the rival Hounds of Hell MC, a secret that puts her life at serious risk.
Despite everything, Aiden Foxx feels an undeniable pull towards Mia. He struggles internally as the line between lust and hate blurs further when Mia also catches the attention of Dagger, one of Foxx’s rivals.... in response, Foxx openly claims Mia as his own, determined to protect her.... and the rest you will need to read to find out but Foxx does not dissapoint....
"I would burn the fucking world down around you if you told me you were cold."

Thank you to Paisley Hope and Sourcebooks Casablanca for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
Thank you Paisley Hope and the ARC team for giving me this ARC :)
After her sister takes her own life, Mia is left drowning in guilt, convinced she could have done something or anything to save her. Haunted by memories of their last day together, she becomes determined to track down the last man connected to her sister’s brutal attack.
Her search leads her to Lavish, where she goes undercover in hopes of uncovering the truth. Mia isn’t new to the MC world: her father and brother are both members of the Hounds of Hell MC. She knows how dangerous this path can be for her. What she doesn’t expect is Aiden Foxx, the ruthless President of the Disciples of Sin MC and her new boss at Lavish.
Aiden is in the middle of cleaning up the chaos his brother left behind. He has one rule at the club for himself: don’t fraternize with employees. The moment Mia walks in, that rule is shattered. When a rival club member takes an interest in her, Aiden’s protective instincts kick in hard, but Mia may not need saving in the way he thinks.
As suspicion grows, Aiden senses Mia is hiding something deeper than she lets on. Meanwhile, Mia is getting closer to the truth, but can she ignore the undeniable attraction between them?
Both Mia and Aiden are unhinged in their own ways, drawn to the darkness in each other. This story is an intense, filled with tension, secrets, and a relentless search for the truth.
Paisley: all I can say is their first will forever live rent free in my head.
6 ⭐️ read!!!!! Oh. My. Gosh. First and foremost THANK YOU @authorpaisleyhope for trusting me with being not only apart of your street team but getting the privilege to ARC read your incredible books! This is a dark biker romance so make sure you read your trigger warnings before diving into this book! There are tough subjects addressed throughout this story! I absolutely LOVEDDDD Mia and Foxx! I loved getting inside and the story behind Hounds of Hells opposing club with Foxx being the prez of the rival gang! Mia goes through something so hard and makes a decision to go behind enemy lines to get her answers. What she doesn’t expect? That Aiden won’t be her enemy but her one true match for life! And the one thing i need to say, is ms paisley THAT RIVER CABIN SCENE WITH THE GATOR, good lawd!!! IYKYK! I also loved seeing the epilogue and seeing their lives in the future with their children and all of them happy together! Their story, banter and development into their feelings are so beautifully written! Paisley does such an incredible job at showing the characters real love and feelings for each other and it’s always so easy to fall head over heels with their stories! Seriously this one might be my favorite in the series and after Dove i didn’t think I’d ever say that! But Omgsh i LOVED Aiden and Mia’s chemistry in this one! Coming July 14th yall need to make sure you grab this one you WONT be disappointed!! #bookish #bookworm #bookstagrammer #bookreviewer #readingcommunity
I will eat up anything Paisley Hope writes, but especially anything in the Soldiers of Bedlam series. The pacing and the plot have hit for me in every book. Thank you so much for the chance to read this one early 🖤
Mia Tyler has a fiery personality. She’s working through crippling grief, chasing answers and fueled by revenge. Reckless, relentless and unapologetic… she has your attention immediately.
When she collides with Aiden Foxx, it’s intense. The tension? Palpable. The chemistry? Magnetic. She pushes every button he has, a brat with just enough bite to keep him hooked. He’s the president of a rival motorcycle club, suspicious of her from the start… but just as quickly, obsessed.
The connection between these two is raw in the most unhinged way. The need between them is consuming and let’s just say… check your TW’s. Some moments are not for the weak. Some just… keep going 🐊
Twists, danger, tension and that addictive pull Paisley Hope does so well. If you love dark MC romance, add this to your TBR immediately.

Just when I think Paisley can't do any better, she smashes it out of the park. If I could give Foxx more than 5 stars I would because I couldn't put it down, and I didn't want to either.
I love Paisley's work, but the Soilders of Bedlam series just grips me like no other. Foxx is the third book of the Soilders of Bedlam series and I love WOLF.E and Dove, but Foxx I think has taken top spot for me.

The chemistry between Foxx and Mia is off the charts, the push and pull between them was amazing I just couldn't put the book down. I love an interconnected standalone, and when it brings in characters from previous stories (WOLF.E and Dove) I enjoy them even more because it ties everything together. The storyline, the betrayal, the lies and secrets I was hooked from the start all the way through. I feel like I'm in a book hangover right now with what I've read and how I gobbled it up. And I won't lie, I don't regret it one bit.
If you've not read any of the series get on it right now!
i have loved every single thing that i’ve read by Paisley. i was a bitttttt worried 30-40% of the way through this that i wouldn’t be obsessed with it like i am the rest of her books. but no need to fear, bc i absolutely loved it!! there were a lot of moments where i was like “…ok where are we going w this” but the way that paisley was able to tie it all together is one of the reasons she will forever be one of my favorite authors. 😭
Aiden Foxx is truly something else. i didn’t think it was possible to like Aiden as much as i love Gabriel & Sean, alas i really, really do. Mia is quite the firecracker hahahah. i love how deep she’s gets herself into things, but refuses to back down for the sake of justice. just like Wolf.e & Dove, aiden & mia’s relationship is anything but conventional. but it was still so perfectly them.
if you like the first 2 books of the Soldiers of Bedlam, i think you’d love this one. i can’t wait for it to be officially published in July 🥹 thank you NetGalley, Sourcebooks Casablanca, & Paisley for the copy of the eARC. 🫶🏼🫶🏼
