This book is worth reading.
This book is a must read!!!
Siobhan Davis is an extremely gifted, well written author that I enjoy reading anything she writes. If I could, I’d read her shopping lists haha.
Anywho, this book is something else! The story is interesting and a complete page turner. I couldn’t put it down as soon as I started. This book sucks you in and when you finish, it leaves you with the worst possible book hangover. It’s a reverse harem, and seriously a few of the gang in this are swoon worthy! The characters are likeable and sometimes in romance, the female main character can be annoying but in this book, she is a total bad*ss, and stands up for herself. She’s likeable.
I thought the Rydeville Elite books were bad for the hangovers but it’s nothing compared to the next one.
Bring on April for book 2 hopefully!!!
If you’re reading this, then please give this book a go, it’s amazing and you won’t regret it!
Dude… What… I mean… How… Holy… This is easily my favorite book from Siobhan Davis, and it has easily taken a spot as one of my favorite books ever.
First, Harlow is AH-MAY-ZING!!! I don’t usually connect with the heroines in the books I read, not sure why, but this heroine captured my attention immediately and I’m girl crushing hard.
The boys… *dreamy sigh* Saint, Galen, Caz, Theo. I’ll just say that Harlow is a lucky girl. LOL! They’re amazing, apart, together, doesn’t matter. I have a soft spot for them all.
This is a bully romance, so there should be no surprises on that, but there was so much else going on. So many twists and turns and so much drama and action… just so much. And it was glorious!!! Gawwwwdddd!!!
And then the ending happened… *rages* LOL!!! I knew it was a cliffhanger going in, but OMG!!! I was not ready. And now I’m dying, DYING, for the next book.
This will definitely be a top read of the year for me. Yes, it’s only January, but it’s that good. Read it!!!
OMFG!! This book, these characters my heart is still beating fast and I finished the book last night. Siobhan Davis has done it again y’all. I don’t know know how she comes up with these characters and stories but please keep them coming!! I was completely consumed from the first couple of pages and I couldn’t put it down.
I loved everything about the heroine Harlow. She’s fierce, fearless and will show up any boy who tries her. After her life gets turned upside down, life as she knows it will change. Saint, Caz, Theo and Galen are The Sainthood are four broody alpha males who reek of trouble and are sexy as sin. Trust me, never have a wanted to kiss, slap and punch them in the nuts before (Saint)!!
Siobhan gives you dark, bully and reverse harem in this book and I AM LIVING FOR IT!! Get ready for the ride of your life with because once you start this book you won’t want to stop and trust me you won’t want it to. This roller coaster will leave you hanging upside down after that cliffhanger!! I cannot wait for book 2!! This book is EPIC!
Get ready to be burnt by the drama, tension, steam and suspense in Resurrection by Siobhan Davis. This story has blown my mind away completely. I am still trying to wrap my head around everything that happened in this story. I am still dazed, shocked and turned on.
This is a reverse harem, new adult and a bit of MC flavoured story. This story revolves around Harlow Westbrook and the guys of The Sainthood, the most feared and powerful criminal gang in the country. Harlow is trying to take revenge for her father’s death and the gang is hell bent on destroying her life. But why? Saint is the son of the gang’s president and his friends and cousins Theo, Galen and Caz always stand together. But Harlow is not going to be intimidated by them. So many pieces are floating around and they are playing a game of life and death. To make things more complicated, all of them have this twisted and deviant chemistry.
Siobhan Davis always writes the best female characters. Harlow may be in senior year only, but she is strong, resilient, cunning and braver than anyone of her age. She has a broken, dark and dangerous soul. She is lethal with her beauty and skill sets. She has suffered some unimaginable loss and pain but she resurrected herself repeatedly. And she is prepared to take on everything life is throwing her. Behind her sassy and hard exterior lives a lonely, vulnerable and sad girl who needs love and caring. And the boys are exactly that. Ok I admit they have weird ways of showing it but they are protecting her somehow. But it is not that easy. Too many things are at risk. The organisation and their power battles. Their personal fights. I have feelings for each of the guys but Saint has to be my favorite. He is just the right kind of growling, brooding, taunting, annoying, dominating, arrogant, possessive and swoonworthy alphahole. Caz has a light charming side behind his monster of body. Theo is the brain but he is no less dangerous. Galen is a bit closed off as he does not trust anyone easily. But let’s talk about chemistry! Dear lord I was on fire! The intimate scenes are just way too dirty, filthy, sensual and sinfully delicious. Sex is more than physical act for them. Sometimes it is the weapon of manipulation. Sometimes it is escape. Sometimes it’s their body expressing truths their mouth cannot. And I seriously does not know how the author kept track of all those secrets and twists. I am positively reeling and my heart was beating wildly all the time. I could not prepare myself for the punches the author delivered at every turn. The plot is way too complex to even give you a hint. This is a minefield of deception, mayhem, mind games and heartbreaks. And I would probably never forgive her for this cruel cliffhanger!
Resurrection by Siobhan Davis was a delicious, devious, intricate and explosive story that has captured my heart and soul. The characters were intricate, intriguing and with more facades than I can count. The emotions made my heart bleed and my soul fly. An exceptionally well balanaced execution of drama, romance and suspense.
Received ARC for honest review
I have to admit that at first I was wondering if this book was too dark of a romance series for me. I wasn’t really drawn to any of the main characters at first. As past events and hidden scars start to be revealed, I quickly became attached to the characters and their life stories. The setting of the book deals with gang hierarchy and town rivalries. Harlow finds herself the Sainthood’s junior level lead gang members’ center of attention after her father died. As Harlow spends time with Saint, Galen, Caz and Theo, she must decide if she can trust each one with her life. The novel ends in an action packed cliffhanger. I recommend this book to those who enjoy dark romances and am looking forward to the next book in the series. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
Siobhan was the author that introduced me to dark bully romance stories. She always takes the story to a place you don’t think anyone can come back from and some way they always do. She has done it again with Resurrection.
This story is everything. Harlow is one of the strongest female characters I have seen in a book. She is not just strong physically but she owns every part of who she is. She doesn’t second guess herself and she finds strength when others would feel defeat. I also loved that she owns her sexuality. I wish more female lead characters did that!
When Harlow’s life gets throw a tragic twist in more ways then one she seeks comfort and a bit of revenge in the arms of four boys. Her one night of fun quickly comes back to haunt her in a huge way. Harlow quickly realizes that there is no escaping the boys of the Sainthood. Now she has to figure out how she can keep her plan of revenge well battling the feeling that one night stirred up inside her.
Everything she has been told and taught tells her to trust no one but she now has no choice. She needs to pick her side and take a standing. Hopefully Harlow picks the right one.
Resurrection is just the beginning of the trilogy that is the tale of Harlow and the Sainthood. I couldn’t put this book down and will be anxiously waiting the next two books!
I was gifted an ARC of Resurrection for a honest review of the book
“I’ll be damned if I give Saint Lennox my first tears in five years.” -Harlow Westbrook
So let me just go ahead and put this out there… I do not like reverse harem… but I totally loved this one!!
My initial reaction when I discovered one of my favorite authors was writing a reverse harem series was not a good one… it’s a genre that’s typically so out there on believability that I just don’t enjoy reading it.
With that being said… this story was amazing!!! It was action packed! The storyline had depth and intrigue. There’s so much suspense and mystery going on that you won’t be able to put it down!
Each character is developed and strong! Personalities are all different and each unique. Harlow is a strong AF female!!! She is tough and definitely keeps the Saints on their toes.
The Saints…. are freaking hot!!! Alpha, possessive and definitely not immune to Harlow.
The chemistry was off the charts! I loved that this story was more than just pointless sex… it was paced and where it was needed it happened.
Very good story! Siobhan can literally write everything and never disappoints. I can’t wait for book 2!!!!
5+ star read and a best of 2020!!!
I have absolutely no words. I can’t even describe this book. The amazingness of it is just something else. If you thought Rydeville Elite was fantastic, then hold on to your seat. Siobhan Davis has a way of writing that sucks you in and this new series will hold you captive.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book .Very interesting and spunky.
Edit
Holy. Smoking. Hotness.
I love a reverse harem as much as the next girl but I love them more when there is actually a PLOT to the story. Not just sex. Don’t get me wrong, the smut in a reverse harem is fun to read, but it’s boring if that is all it is.
Resurrection is SO MUCH MORE than just a smut filled story. The storyline is exciting and dark. It’s got me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what the heck is happening.
Now, back to the smut.. This book has it. It’s hot. It’s sexy. It’s INSANE. The chemistry between all the characters pulses through the pages.
I have been WAITING for a character like Lo. She’s incredibly strong and independent. She takes NOBODY’S crap. Nobody’s. She won’t be pushed around or stepped on.. and it doesn’t matter that four of the scariest men of the Sainthood are pushing around, she won’t have it. She won’t back down. She definitely won’t submit.
I am dying to read whatever comes next in this series. Siobhan is a new author to me and this book has me instantly loving her writing style.

This book was everything I didn’t know I need. This isn’t your typical RH. You just have to read it for yourself. Freaking amazballs. You get all the feels. All the twists and turns
Holy crap! The twists and turns in this book had me on edge and wanting more. The main character is amazing, sassy, strong willed and smart. When I was forced to put this book down, I couldnt stop thinking about it. The ending killed me! I need more!!!
Amount of sex 3.5 / 5
How explicit are the sex scenes 3.5 / 5
Story 5 / 5
Overall: 5 / 5
Absolutely Amazing!
Resurrection is the first book in a new high school bully romance series called ‘The Sainthood: Boys of Lowell High. Every time that I have read one of Siobhan’s books, the storyline is always twisted, gripping, and so well developed. Also, the characters are complex, engaging, and they seem so real. Honestly, it’s one of the reason’s why nothing in my house gets done when I read her stories! I literally grab a drink, a snack, and lock myself away in a quiet room, hoping that my kids don’t find me.
Resurrection tells the story of Harlow Westbrook, and she is heading into her senior year of high school. When she was younger, she went through something traumatic, and it’s caused her to become such a strong female character. Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo are all junior members of the Sainthood, and they all recently moved to Lowell. They are planning on attending Harlow’s school, and they proceed to make life difficult for her. Although, the attraction between them all is pretty dang explosive!
I am dying to fill you in on this juicy reverse harem romance, but like all of Siobhan’s books, you need to experience this one on your own. Oh, and so you are aware, this series has a continuous storyline. So know that it’s going to end with an epic cliffhanger!
Voluntarily Reviewed an Advanced Copy
First off, I do not like reverse harem romances at all. Except when Siobhan Davis writes them. This was so good. One really bad ass girl and four hot guys. Yup, sign me up please. There’s secrets, angst, creepy sneaky parents, and even a little humor mixed in.
Harlow gets pulled into a world she’s always tried to avoid. She’s trying to stay detached from these guys, but they make her feel like she finally belongs somewhere. This story is off the rails crazy in the very best way. You never really know where anyone stands and things could change in a moment. But the story just pulls you in and you just have to know what happens next.
And of course it ends on an epic cliffhanger and my god I needed to know what happens next. I loved this one so much. All the boys, the craziness, the twists, and the turns. If you’re looking for an awesome reverse harem go and grab this as soon as possible!
All that I can say is wow!! Resurrection had me sucked in from the very beginning!! Harlow is one kick a** main character!! Can’t wait to see what happened nexxxxxttttt!!!
Siobhan Davis has done it again! She’s sucked me into another world of hers and now I NEED ALL OF IT!!!
I’ve never been a big fan of RH….until this book! I’ve read some good ones but none that I loved. Resurrection ticked off ALL MY NEEDS! It was a gamechanger for me! Give me all the RH if Siobhan is writing it and it involves The Sainthood!
HOLY HOTNESS! My mind is still reeling from this book. I had suspicions and theories throughout the whole book but Siobhan still managed to blow my mind. Mind you….I went into this book knowing what this amazing author is capable of. Her writing is brilliant and has the ability to absorb you completely!
Siobhan has delivered another AMAZING heroine to my FAVORITES list! Harlow is a complete badass! I’ve been dying to read a character that has similar characteristics for a while and Harlow won me over within the first couple pages but she kept me the entire book. Oh man… The Sainthood! HOLY HOTNESS!!!! I can’t shut off my mind… from all the revelations, theories and thoughts about this series starter. I need book 2 NOW!
I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book.
Enthralling and utterly suspenseful, Resurrection is the first book in Siobhan Davis’s new reverse harem, bully, new adult The Sainthood- Boys of Lowell High series. By the end of the prologue, I was panting and needing a cold shower. By the end of the first chapter, I was completely addicted. I truly don’t know how she does it. Siobhan has moved right up to the top of my favorite authors list and continues to blow me away with each new release. She nails each genre, but I have to say her darker, more suspenseful stuff is my absolute favorite.
Resurrection is set in the dark and deprived world of gangs and it was all consuming from the very beginning. From the intricate plot, to the sexy alpha males and a fearless, no holds barred heroine, I had a hard time putting this book down. I loved the depth of each of the heroes and how different they each were, but Harlow stole the show for me. I loved her fearlessness, her loyalty to her family and friends, and even her honestly. Her snark and sass left me laughing out loud more than a few times. I also really enjoyed the individual relationships she seems to have with each of the guys although I have to say that Saint is my favorite.
Resurrection is dark and angsty, full of anger, suspense, drama, secrets, intense sexual tension and scenes between the characters. I am completely fascinated with the Sainthood and after the cliffhanger of an ending, Siobhan Davis has me longing for more of Lo and the gang.

Wow, wow, wow! This really is a page-turner! From the very beginning, this story had me on the edge of my seat and I stayed perched there until the end! WARNING: sleep deprivation may occur and a guaranteed book hangover will follow!
For anyone who loves Rydeville High Elite series, this is a must. For anyone who loves CM Stunich, Callie Rose etc, this is one not to be missed. Harlow is one kick-ass FMC, I wasn’t sure she was my kind of girl and the beginning, but this girl gives it, and you cannot help cheering her on from the side-lines! As always the guys, The Saints, are smoking hot and very BAD boys. This story is fast paced and leaves you desperate for book 2. In true Siobhan Davis style, the story is detailed, well written and gripping, with credible characters who jump off the page and firmly root themselves in your psychi.
Counting down for Book 2. Recommendation….don’t wait! You’ll be missing a treat!
This book was dark but beautiful to read. The character’s growth was well done and the story flowed really well as it was being built.
This is a great first book for this series
