I’d seen so much hype about this book but it sadly didn’t live up to expectations for me.
Wolf.e is insta lust with very little plot and a lot of spice and, personally, I need a more engaging plot alongside my spice and instalust isnt a trope I’m personally a fan of.
I struggled to understand, initially, why Brinley, the FMC wanted Wolfe, besides the obvious physical attraction.
I will say that the book does pick up in the second half and become a little more plot focused but overall, this book sadly wasn’t for me. I do think that it’s a very bingeable read and many other will really enjoy it though.

Oh wow. What an incredible book!!!!

This book was EVERYTHING I needed!!!

Dark, possessive, alpha male Gabriel Wolfe and sweet, not so innocent Brinley 🤭

"For as long as I can remember, I’ve had cravings for a man who wants me so much he finds it impossible to keep his hands to himself."

Boyyyyy did she find her man!!!!

I'm so obsessed with this book, that I'm now on a mission to collect every single copy 🤣🤣🤣

I definitely need to read more books by this author because I loved the writing style and everything about this one ❤️

Definitely in my dark romance era right now and this book did not disappoint! Was also my first MC romance book and I absolutely devoured it.
I love Paisley Hopes writing style so knew I was going to love this, she’ll be one of those authors I just know now I’ll read everything she brings out.
The FMC Brinley is a bit of a “good girl” so when she’s invited to her friends wedding who’s husband to be is a member of the local motorcycle club that she’s grew up being told to avoid, she’s extremely nervous about it. This is where she meets Gabriel Wolfe - the president of the MC club. He’s big, strong, extremely attractive but absolutely terrifying! Let’s just say things get 🥵.
I loved this book, I’ve had to preorder the physical copy because I need it for my shelf. I’m so excited that this is going to be a series, I loved the characters, I loved the spice 🌶️ and I loved the story. Would highly recommend, I couldn’t put it down, rated 5⭐️ and I don’t give those out often!

3.25/5

Wolf.e is a fast-paced, dark romance featuring insta-lust/love. The romance takes center stage, while the motorcycle club power struggle serves as a backdrop. It’s an extremely spicy read, so it may not be suitable for everyone and likely requires trigger warnings. This was my first book by Paisley Hope, and I’m now curious to read some of her other work.

Brinley does a 180 from who she was in chapter 1. Gabriel, although he’s meant to be this menacing domineering figure, Brinley makes him melt. He’s not morally grey; all of his work is actually to help his community.

The epilogue is 17.5 years later!!! But it really wraps up the story nicely.

Thank you to NetGalley for the e-ARC.

I'm not much of a dark romance girly but I did enjoy this book! Some of the darker aspects were putting me off (some explicit sex scenes were a bit too intense for my personal liking). If you are into dark romance this book will be a 5 star read for you. I came for the romance and in the end stayed for all the action about the club in general.

thank you to Netgalley, the publisher and Paisley Hope for the digital ARC!

Omg I had a blast with this book. Sexy, dark and, fast paced, I could barely put it down.

Brinley is a good girl who’s always done what’s expected of her and plays it safe. Enter Wolfe, our brooding and dangerous club leader who sees the darker side she keeps hidden and makes it his mission to drag it out of her.

“I want to find out who Brinley Rose Beaumont is when, for once, she chooses herself.”

Basically every sentence out of Wolfe’s mouth is highlight worthy. He had me blushing one minute and laughing out loud the next.

“There isn’t a thought in my head that doesn’t start and end with you.”

I loved the role reversal later in the book, and that Wolfe didn’t just want to be her protector but wanted to train her so she can protect herself. There are some dark themes and dark moments so check triggers 🖤

Thank you so much to Paisley Hope, Evermore and NetGalley for the arc.

I have been trying to write a review about this book for days but how do you properly articulate that a book left no impression on you? This book was fine, the characters were fine, everything was fine. I can't say I didn't enjoy it because that would be a lie but there was nothing about this book that stood out, or made me want to yell from the roof tops about how much I loved it. The grease references were a great tie in and definitely increased my star rating by like half. The conversation at the breakfast table made me laugh out loud and was probably the best part of the entire book for me. overall, yeah it was okay but I can't say I loved it.

This was a quick read for me but it is extremely smut heavy so if that isn’t your vibe I wouldn’t recommend this book to you! I’m not sure I liked the characters and I wish there was a bit more of a plot as I felt nothing really happened until about 60%.

Mini Review 📖

It’s been a while since reading a dark romance and it took a moment to get back into the swing of things as these dark MCs tend to walk fine lines of acceptable behaviour, however after relaxing and just letting the vibes flow I enjoyed this book! The dark angel and MC leader Wolfe is fearsome and demanding but loyal and true to himself. Brinley, our good girl delicate rose blossoms into a strong FMC.

My only complaint with this book is it felt longer than there was stuff actually happening but that could’ve been my broken and slow reading, and there was a LOT of smut. Im no prude but those two literally couldn’t look at each other without getting wet.

I liked the club and MC theme and look forward to reading Ax and Laylas story which I believe will be a prequel.

Also the art work for this cover is just 10/10 beautiful. I think it would make amazing full print posters.

3.25⭐ flew through this and was definitely a fun read! Very smutty motorcycle MMC & good rule-follower girl FMC where he convinces her that she belongs in his world. Very ‘touch her and die’ and obsession driven from the brooding lead Wolf. Throw in a few💀and this was this book summarised. Still definitely enjoyed and would probably read more from Paisley!!

Thank you Paisley Hope and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to arc read this book, I am a huge Paisley Hope fan and she is an auto buy for me.

Let's just say this is spicyyyyy, which is needed in the summer heat, you think you're hot now? Read this and you are on fire. I loved this, I loved the FMC and I adored the MMC. Really easy read and can read it within 1 setting, or atleast I did. I would highly recommend on to others, but definitely check the TW but overall, a great read and can't wait to see what else she will be bringing out

Wolf.e is pure fire!!! I’m a big Paisley Hope fan after loving the Silver Pines series and I didn’t think she could top that…she did!! The chemistry between Gabriel and Brinley is electric. I couldn’t stop reading. I’m hoping this becomes a whole book series too.

I really enjoyed this one. I haven't read a MC book for so long and this one was a perfect reintroduction.
Paisleys writing had be booked from the first chapter.
I'm now going to read her cowboy series.

Excited for Foxx's book.

Thank you Paisley and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to arc read this book.

I don’t have words for this book, it’s amazing and made me feel alive. The FMC is such a badass and makes me want to be just a little bit more like her. I won’t say too much, but, she’s a queen, through and through, and Wolfe is lucky to have her! Speaking of Wolfe, what. A. Man. Morally grey, only soft for her… I couldn’t get enough of them.
I also have a newfound appreciation for hummingbirds 😌

I have mixed feelings about it this and I think it’s because this book felt quite long for what it was.

The first 20% of the book didn’t actually end up feeling that necessary or relevant to the story. That being said when it got going I did really enjoy this.

Insta-love/fast paced romances aren’t usually my favourite as they feel very unrealistic but I didn’t mind it here because the naive and eager to please FMC and lonely and completely emotionless MMC who doesn’t understand his feelings lends itself to that type of situation playing out quite nicely. I can’t ever complain about a brooding MMC with tattooed with his fluffy little princess. It’s a tale as old as time. And it never gets old.

I think the aim here was to provide 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ and that is what I got. HOT AS HELL. No complaints on that front although some of the kinks definitely were not my speed…. The author might need to consider some trigger warnings. I don’t recall seeing them explicitly noted at the front but I think there is an element of dubious consent in some scenes that could be alarming to some readers. However it is a dark romance and so a degree of that is to be expected.

The plot didn’t entirely grip me or give me the 4/5 star vibes but I did have a great time overall. I would read it again!

Down and Dirty

Read the TW’s

A little darker than I initially expected so it took me a while to really get into the story and around half way I wasn’t completely sure if I was going to finish it or not but I’m glad I stuck around as the plot definitely picks up and while some the twists are pretty clear ahead of time I still felt the tension.


A solid 3.5⭐️

Ooffff let's get into it.

Things I liked:
-the epilogue
-Brinley becoming badass
- Him knowing the difference between patriotism and critiquing one's government. Sad that he only equalized that after big traumatic events.
- His morally good illegal job!!

Things I didn't like:
- The way she had to get sexual to convince him.
- A lot of lust.
- The sexualization & objectification throughout the book (although it wasn't heavy)

DNF at 45%

I’m really disappointed because I’ve loved the authors cowboy romance and I’ve been looking for a good MC romance but this was not the one. I’m assuming it was her earlier work which is being traditionally published due to her success and that awesome, it just really wasn’t for me.

I didn’t like the writing AT ALL, the dialogues made me roll my eyes and some of the smut was described in really unappealing ways. Maybe it’s because I’m not massively into dark romance, but I can enjoy it a lot if the characters are really cool and interesting and this didn’t hit that for me.

I’m sure a lot of people will love it tho!
