Everything changed the night he betrayed me, and now, the game has entered a new level.Galen did me a favor, reminding me the only person I can count on is myself, and I’m more determined than ever to avenge my father’s death and avoid the destiny Sinner has mapped out for me.Saint is used to calling the shots, but there are new rules, my rules, and if he wants me in his life, and in his bed, … and in his bed, he’ll toe the line. They all will, because I can’t pull this off alone, and they owe me.
Sinner thinks he’s in control, but forcing me into initiation plays right into my hands. War has come to Lowell as rival gangs battle The Sainthood for ultimate power, and I enjoy rebelling from the inside, placing more obstacles in Sinner’s path while I exact my revenge.
But I’m not some innocent thirteen-year-old anymore—I have blood on my hands and lethal enemies on my tail.
I’m playing a dangerous game, especially where my heart is concerned, but there’s no turning back. I haven’t come this far to walk away empty-handed, and the more secrets we uncover, the more we realize how far-reaching the betrayal and corruption extend, and there’s no choice anymore.
The Sainthood must be taken down, and we’re the only ones who can do it.
This is book two of three and it’s not a standalone read. Due to dark themes and content, this #whychoose romance is only recommended to readers aged eighteen and older.

I need book 3 ASAP!
There is nothing better than the sweet anticipation of a sequel to a book that felt so original so surprising, so RIVETING that you can’t stop thinking about it….nothing better than the sequel being JUST as awesome and soul shaking.
This book is full of constant twists and turns- and we all know the soul crushing cliffy that had us all agonizing for months, so I won’t reveal too much here. That said, we have everything we loved about the first installment- we have a kick ass heroine who is so unabashedly herself who OWNS being the star of her own story, we have the delicious, devious, magnetic, and dangerous Sainthood boys Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo, you an action packed plot with more twists than a pack of twizzlers, a whole bunch of characters whose motivations and interests are constantly keeping your on your toes, and heart pounding reverse harem romance full of SO much yummy goodness smack dab in the middle of scary and action packed gang war. YES, Siobhan- QUEEN!
But, this story felt even more fulfilling for me. I LOVED Harlow from day 1- she owns her sexuality, she’s brazen and bold and fearless, unapologetic about who she is and what she wants- she’s a survivor who has reclaimed her own narrative. At the beginning and end of last book, we got to see into the deeper recesses of Harlow’s heart, which she’s carefully packaged up and booby trapped time and again. We saw her make an epic decision to follow her heart instead of her mind- and this book we get to explore this side of her more fully- sure, it softens her some, but we get to see the fuller spectrum of who Harlow really is, we get to see her be more emotionally driven and (slightly) more open, we get to explore who Harlow is when she’s not the fighting loner. Girl is smart, a spitfire, and so deeply nuanced and carefully constructed by Siobhan- she’s my favorite Siobhan heroine ever, and DAMN, love that we get to see her skills, too.
And our guys. NEED A COLD SHOWER, because ladies, we get their POV this time, and OMG, Siobhan, what a gift. If you were like me and felt like we didn’t truly KNOW some of our men (and didn’t want all them for Harlow evenly), then you’ll love getting to know our boys more, especially Theo and Galen, even more of Caz. We learn more about who they are and what has been driving them, more about their feelings and emotions, and we understand better how they all fit together, like a beautiful, jagged, scratched up puzzle. I loved the rough, animalistic connection we saw with the men and Harlow in book one, but in this book, we scratch deep under their chemistry to understand their souls, and I find myself drawn to each of them in different ways, even when they do unimaginable (or unforgivable) things.
And LORDY, Siobhan is the QUEEN of cliffangers. We don’t just dangle on the edge in her cliffies- we’re violently shoved over the edge into a dark abyss, bleeding on the rocks below while we wait for the sweet live-saving CPR that we know we’ll get in the next book. I CAN NOT WAIT.
Siobhan has shown time and time again she is the queen of RH- she’s truly shaking and redefining the genre with new and compelling stories, this is truly a series I will love and reread for years to come. I NEED BOOK 3 NOW!!!
Harlow is back and plotting her revenge. She only needs herself and Galem’s betrayal only prove that to herself. She determined to play the game her own way now. Saint isn’t interested in her keeping distance. Galen has a lot to make up for and they’ll get nowhere until he and Harlow get their stuff sorted out. I was absolutely loving Theo! I loved getting the backstory of them finally and seeing the breakthrough they had. Caz, as always, was amazing. I cannot wait to see where we’re led next on this crazy, thrilling ride!
Absolutely a 5 star read!
Siobhan did it again!
After Retribution was SUCH a phenomenal read for me, I do have to say I was a bit worried Rebellion wouldn’t live up to it for me.
However, it was all for nothing!
Siobhan wracked this book out of the park. I absolutely can’t stop raving about this series. This book was the absolute perfect book to develop those characters and character relationships, while keeping things SOOO steamy. She definitely pulled out all of the stops.
If you’re wondering whether to read this series, just one click and read it immediately! Our sassy FMC had that strong willed bada** vibe that I loved so much in E.M. Moore’s Uppercut Princess & J Bree’s Just Drop out!
These series give me life and so much drive to want to be a strong willed woman!
This is book two in the series and book one must be read before this one and the action starts right where book one’s cliffhanger left us.
This book is filled with so much more action and suspense and the angst between Harlow and Galen near killed me. Their relationship was strained due to what happened at the end of book one and Harlow really made him suffer to get back in her good graces.
We do get the back story of Galen and my heart really went to him and what he goes through for his family.
Although I love the boys, Harlow is what makes this book for me. She’s more determined, full of sass and although her trust was broken with the boy’s she fights to come out on top, she’s one alpha female!
I will admit I’m not the biggest reverse harem fan but since this was Davis and I would always read her words, I couldn’t not read this, and wow, what a sexy eye opener of bed hopping and sharing, did I say sexy and super steamy read this was? The heat levels have definitely been turned up and I was so there for it. Although I do have my favourite, Saint!
This book will take you through all the action, twists and turns and leave you gasping for more, especially after another cliffhanger and I’m dying for the next instalment.
ARC received for an honest review – thank you

The second book in the Boys of Lowell High continues with Lo, Saint, Theo, Galen and Caz! I’ve got to admit, Lo is one lucky woman having those guys as her boyfriends. Boyfriends seems like such a small word compared to what they truly are. As they battle Saint’s father Neo aka Sinner and the other gangs fighting for supremacy, they find themselves in for a fight of their lives. Lo is being used as a target for Sinner’s twisted games and her guys are fighting to keep her from him at all costs. This book is the continuation from Resurrection and it’s a page turner! Once I immersed myself in this book, I couldn’t put it down! I kept wanting to read parts of it all day even when I am working. It’s just that damn good! Siobhan Davis is a master story teller and she knows how to keep you in suspense. I keep asking myself what does she have planned next? I’m always completely surprised by how many twists and turns she can create in every single book! I love this book and I cannot wait to read the third and final book in this series! I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book. Ten gold stars!
ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT UNPUTDOWNABLE!!! HOLY GUACAMOLE Siobhan!! Here I thought that Resurrection was amazing, I’m not even sure I know words to describe this book!!
The characters in here are absolutely extraordinary! The love and connection being built between them is undeniable but with so many bumps and twists along the way it had me biting my nails. Harlow, Saint and his crew are biting off so much more than I believe they can chew but every time they make it through the challenge by staying loyal and having each other’s backs. I absolutely adore this storyline because it always keeps me on my toes. I never know or could even guess what’s coming next which is so intriguing for me in a book. I honestly didn’t realize that there was going to be more books in this series until about half way through this one because by then I knew there was way more to be told in the story for it to end that soon. I am totally gobsmacked with the fact I have to wait for the next book but completely and totally loving it too!! I’ve read tons of bully/enemies to lovers and no one writes them like Siobhan Davis does! Every last emotion you want in a book is in here and if you enjoy this trope of books you definitely need to read this series!! It is absolutely, epically phenomenal!!
OMG! Every time I thought about trying out down there were more twists and messed up secrets revealed! Everyone thinks they’re in charge. Amazingly strong characters and the will to survive on top. Explosive cliff hanger.
Definitely a must for library by the amazing author Siobhan Davis!
*I was given a copy and am voluntarily giving my honest review.
Galen has betrayed her, handed her over to the enemy. She’s one of them and she will definitely make him pay !!!
The game is on, the danger is increase, who to trust, who is lying, what a web of secrets! But through it all how can she control her feelings for these boys, each one calls to her in their own way.
Determined to take control and fullfill her aim of revenge!
OMG this book will leave you even more speechless than the last, Lo is still a badass and a woman even more determined.
Hatred, Lies, Lust, Trust everyting comes into play with this part of their story and i have to say… HOLD ON TIGHT BECAUSE ITS ONE HELL OF A RIDE !!!
I still have some difficulties with the ages of the characters matching their deeds and intelligence, their skills in all things violence and their knowledge of the worst parts of society, but i freaking loved every minute of these avenging Heros !!! Bravo !!! AM DYING FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT !!!
Caught up in the intrigue of their parents past the next installment of The Boys of Lowell High continues to push the bar and exceed expectations with the whirlwind of events that are now Harlow, Saint, Theo, Caz, and Galen’s lives. Siobhan Davis does not seem to run out of steam or imagination as she bulldozes through her storyline with a constant onslaught sensational events. Steamy and unrepentant this cast of characters knows what they want and takes on their desires head on. Empowerment defines Harlow who stands toe to toe with anyone who tries to take down or confront her choices. This is one memorable heroine who is not afraid to show both her strong and vulnerable sides. Each of her love interest are uniquely and equally appealing offering a variety pf interpersonal dynamics that keep this work versatile and continuously evolving
With an underlining threat always looming this work is edge of your seat, nail biting, high octane intense. Ms. Davis continues to write her way around complex plots with an ease that is both mind boggling and impressive. Looking for an adventure with strong characters and lots of steam look no further Rebellion is one click away!
*I was given an advanced copy. All opinions expressed are my own. *
*Readers should read the previous book in this series prior to reading book two. *
*This story ends with a cliffhanger and is book two in The Sainthood-Boys of Lowell High Series*
The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High has everything I want in a dark High School romance series, and Rebellion (Book 2) delivers it all yet again. Betrayal, angst, thrills, romance. This book really has it all, and (except for another tough cliffhanger that’s leaving me crying for the next book), it’s all great.
Rebellion picks up where Resurrection left off and you will not be disappointed.
Siobhan has captured action, suspense and mystery in Rebellion and we learn more about Saint, Caz, Theo and Gallan. The sex scenes are steamy and will leave you wanting more not only one on one but with all four and Lo is one lucky girl to have all four amazing men in love with her.
Rebellion will leave you will with a cliffhanger but I say again, you will not be disappointed in reading this story. Siobhan has done an excellent job.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
: I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book and I could not put the book down! It was amazing and fast paced. The character development between Harlow and the boys was what I had been waiting for and oh so hot!
fun and interesting
Siobhan is one of those authors who leaves me in suspense right until the last page of a series, and I love her for it!! Rebellion picks us up as we fell off the cliff in book 1! Lol
Everything is magnified! The mystery, suspense, and good heavens the steam!! This is even better than book one! And I’m dying for book three! You do not want to miss this series and all it’s Angsty, Reverse Harem Glory
Hot damn!!! What a phenomenal continuation to an already fantastic series this book just takes it to a whole new level…..
We pick up straight where we left off and oh boy the sainthood guys are out for revenge….another absolutely thrilling read full of action and suspense.
with every new revelation comes more anguish and betrayal ,and as we discover the truths behind past connections we are ultimately left with more questions than answers .
A fantastically written super steamy edge of your seat ,gripping read that will keep your heart banging in your chest and your pulse racing, a book that you cant turn the pages fast enough to find out what’s coming next and oh hell one huge cliffhanger…
I’m so excited for the conclusion I really cant wait , very highly recommended series.
Oh No She didn’t, seriously that cliff hangers certainly is the cliff hanger of cliff hangers my stomach went flipflop as I just wanted to run into the future like flash and find out what happened, who did it?
What a gripping and enthralling tale that will leave you wanting more and I cant help for book three.
I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review
I continue to be amazed by the level of maturity shown by Harlow and her guys, considering they are still in high school. As revelations abound, more trouble comes after the group. This is a very suspenseful and intriguing series. I’m looking forward to the final installment.
Omg I dont know where to start?! This book ends on a huge cliff hanger and I dont think I cant wait that long for the 3rd book! This book takes off where the last one ends. We get to understand the guys and get a look into their personal lives. I love the way they are with harlow. This book is seriously just amazing!
What, what, what??? This book starts on a cliff hanger and ends on one too but that’s why we love Siobhan!
Rebellion delves so much deeper into each characters back story. Harlow has to make decisions about whether she can forgive Galen and how she moves forward from a betrayal. How does Sinner and her mom play into everything?
Harlow is one bad woman who is so sure of herself. She literally has 4 guys wrapped around her finger.
This book definitely has more reverse harem elements than the previous book and a few scenes definitely made me blush! I can’t wait for the resolution of this series!
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book.
