I never thought that Rydeville elite darkness would be surpassed but Siobhan has blown it out of the sphere as this level of darkness will have you enthralled from start to finish.
The chemistry, passion, action, mind games and downright mesmerising scenes are gripping. Harlow is the ultimate female character that takes no prisoners and goes after what she wants irrespective you just can’t help being in awe of her.
As for the cliff hanger now, that was very mean as the wait is going to be painful as we count down to the next book in the series.
Absolutely love this book… I couldn’t put it down. The characters are amazing. Edgy and hot!
I enjoyed this book and know I will enjoy this series but it was very slow to start for me. It took me a while to get to 75% and then it picked up quickly and ended on a doozie of a cliffhanger.
Lo is a very self assured teenager who recently lost her dad. She has a sexual foray with members of a gang, The Sainthood, that are a rival to her ex-boyfriend that is then released onto the Internet. After making decision to go to public school, Lo thinks life will calm down until the members of The Sainthood roll into school.
There are a lot of sexual explicit scenes so definitely heed the warnings on this book. I am ready for the next one to see where Lo’s journey takes her.
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Harlow’s story is amazingly suspenseful and intense. I was surprised by the level of maturity in people so young, but they likely had to get there quick in their world. This book raw, dirty and hard. I couldn’t put it down until it was done. Anxious for the rest of the story.
Siobhan Davis has outdone herself with Resurrection. This book, especially that jaw dropping cliffhanger, left me pretty wound up and basically speechless! Actually, I want to scream! I want to hit something! I want the next book right now! The characters are so alive and the story is so incredibly riveting. I love Harlow. She is queen of the badass heroines. She is amazing and I loved her refusal to bow down to anyone. I love/hate Saint, Theo, Galen, and Caz, the antiheroes who try so hard to break her, all the while falling for her. There is megawatt of chemistry between Harlow and these guys, particularly Saint. Holy smokes! Do I sound overly enthusiastic? I can’t help it. Every page held me completely spellbound. I am so invested, so excited by this fantastic story, and it’s KILLING me to have to wait!
I am voluntarily reviewing an advance reader copy of this book.
Resurrection is probably my favorite book so far in the Dark High School Romance genre! It’s everything, I felt all the feels while reading it. At one point I was laughing so hard my kids were eyeing me like I was a crazy person. You will not be disappointed, so one click this baby and enjoy. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book.
Oh that flipping cliffhanger! Wow…I’m just super sad that I have to wait for the next book now. I haven’t been super into RH but this one took the cake. Dark, twisted, steamy, 4 hotties and Harlow. I LOVE her character she is a kicka$$ take nothing from no one bada$$. Siobahn never disappoints me with any of her writing and Resurrection is my new favorite. I can not wait for the next book.
I read Resurrection because I’ve loved other books by Siobhan Davis. Warning here: this is precisely the “mature content” dark romance novel with enemies-to-lovers and bullying themes warned about in its publisher’s blurb. It’s certainly not a story to share with your daughter if she’s young, though it’s definitely yummy and shareable with her if she’s mature enough and or an adult (mine is, though she’d kill me for discussing her if this wasn’t an anonymous review). All told, despite the above disclaimers, this is a well written and delicious tale. My only real complaint is that, as warned about, it ends in a cliffhanger. Frankly I cannot wait for the next book in The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High series so that I can continue the tale.
Siobhan Davis has a way with words, making multi-dimensional characters and creating magic with her books. I loved the Kyler Trilogy, then came Abby’s Trilogy, which was even better and now comes Lo. Lo, this girl, she’s such an amazing character, she had so many layers to her, which is what made me fall for her. Some of the my favorite moments of her are her b-a-l-l- busting moments. Like literally, that is what she does, on multiple occasions, and it is so hilarious and such a great to see her kick @ss!
And then the guys. I loved the way the way the relationships between her and the guys are written. Each has its own pace and all of them captivating. I love that each guy is unique and they all don’t just blend into one being like I find in quite a few rh books when it comes to reactions (can’t stand that!). The dynamics that come into play as she interacts with them made it hard for me to put down the book (along with the beautiful story!), so here I am, having just finished the book well after my usual bedtime lol. I can’t wait to see where the story goes from that crazy ending and how it’ll affect her relationships with each of the guys. *spoilerish* One of which deserves a kick *cough cough* Book 2 cannot come fast enough! <3 <3 <3
Ok WHAT IN TF did I just read?!?
Siobhan Davis, you’ve done it again.
At this point, I shouldn’t even be surprised.
Resurrection…WHEW…where do I start?
This is more than just your everyday bully, RH, enemies to lovers romance…and can I just take a moment to swoon over like almost all of my favorite tropes all wrapped together in one mind twisted package??
The Sainthood crew; Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo…don’t even get me started on them…hot doesn’t even begin to describe them.
Harlow was simply a bad ass boss bitch, point blank period. I’m in awe of her.
I have so many highlights in this book it’s ridiculous. Because Siobhan Davis didn’t just give you a romance…she gave you one hell of a suspense with this one. She handed you all the puzzle pieces broken and scattered for you to put together. As you lock in every bit of intel to try to decode you’re hit with another piece of the missing puzzle. Nothing is as it seems and just when you’re trying to wrap your head around all the secrets and bomb drops, she hits you with the cliffs to end all cliffs. One that leaves you with your jaw on the floor and your heart in you stomach. Like holy shit, I’m honestly left speechless. I voluntarily reviewed an advance complimentary copy of this book.
Fantastic! I am not sure there are enough adjectives to describe how great this book is! I guarantee you will devour this story in one sitting. Even if you are not a reverse harem fan, you will enjoy this as the characters and story have such depth that you just want more! Great introduction to what I am sure will be amazing series! oh and the cliffhanger…. WOW!!!
Holy shit what a book!!! I started it in the morning and was glued to my kindle until I finished it! I could not put it down!!
The chemistry between the characters is off the charts high, the plot is so interesting, and Siobhan Davis just writes her books like it feels you’re living it!
This book definitely needs and deserves more than 5 stars, and I can’t freakin wait for more!!
This book is sexy, dark, interesting, fascinating, amazing and all I can think of!!!
I kindly received an arc from the author and voluntarily left a review
I wasn’t sure about myself when I realized how much I enjoyed Siobhan Davis’ particular brand of torturous bully romance. I’m still not. But this one is perhaps my favorite to date.
This cast is large, the intrigue deep, and the cliffy everything that causes me to lose sleep between books! Well done, entertaining and everything I love about reading outside my normal comfort zone.
Highly recommend!
Wow, I was blown away by this story. Siobhan can weave a tale like no other! This is a story about a girl who just wants revenge on those who have taken so much away from her in her young life. She was taken when she was only 13 yrs old and was made a pawn in a madman’s sick game. A few years later, another tragedy happens and one choice changed everything. I thought Cruel Intentions was a great book, but Resurrection is in a whole other category! I love the dynamic of love/hate between Harlow, Saint, Galen, Caz and Theo! I want more from this series! Yes, it is a RH book but the way it’s written is not centered around the reverse harem theme. It’s about vengeance, love, hate and everything in between. I cannot wait for the next book! The cliffhanger though.. OMG! I received a complimentary copy of this book.
This is a Reverse Harem book, let’s just start and put this out there so you know what you are getting into, now if you are into these books, then TRUST me this book will win your heart right away as it will destroy it at the same time. Are you ready for it? I know you are, if you are a Siobhan Davis fan, you know she cannot dissapoint you when it comes to these kind of books (or any kind of books, right? LOL), or if you haven’t started reading a Siobhan book, where have you been? Grab this one and be destroyed by her amazing writing and be ready to not stop here, be don’t worry, she has plenty books/series out there for you to be more destroyed.
Now, let’s get to Resurrection…Harlow is not your typical girl and you will get that from the first chapter. She is wild, she is not afraid to express herself, she is not afraid of her sexuality and most importantly she is not afraid to protect herself from anyone. But to get to where she is, she has to gone through hell and back, but from just meeting her, you will never guess.
The night she met Saint, Galen, Caz and Theo, her whole life sure changed forever. Because they belong to The Sainthood and has now decided to make her off limits to anyone else and drags her into their world more than she wants, Harlow never thought she would hate them more than she ever thought, but the more she hates them the more she starts to realize how right everything feels, how she starts to feel save where she shouldn’t.
But enemies are all over and things are not always what it seems…
AH, this book made a mess on me. It was hot, sexy, had me on edge the whole time and just like Harlow, I didn’t know who the hell to trust. I was doubting all the guys all the time, while still feeling hot for all of them, I just as sick in the head as her. Siobhan messed with my head more than ever…and the cliffhanger at the end just, just, just…I can’t even put to words.
I don’t need book two now, I WANT book two NOW. I need to know what the heck is going to happen, this is killing me.
I voluntary reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book.
5 out 5 stars for sure.
: Resurrection is the first full-length novel in Siobhan Davis’s all-new reverse harem series, The Sainthood Boys of Lowell High. Excuse me while I pick my freaking jaw up off the floor!!! I am absolutely in love with Siobhan Davis’s work, she is one of my TOP one-click authors and Resurrection is a prime example of why! If you enjoyed Davis’s latest series, Rydeville High, then you are in for a treat with this one! If you thought Rydeville High was intense, Resurrection makes it look like child’s play! Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely devoured book 1-3 of the Rydeville High series but Resurrection… OH.MY.GOD. I am STILL speechless and it’s been days since I finished.
This one is like a multi-genre book, you have the bully romance, the enemies to lovers aspect, then you have the sexy reverse harem side, then to top it all off you have all the secrets, suspense, the steam, the revenge, the lies, GAHHH!!! You are not going to want to miss this action-packed, completely addictive story! Resurrection has it ALL!

() : include Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo. I don’t even have the words to describe these guys. From their looks to the power that they wield they are irresistible. Although these guys are dark and delicious, they are also absolutely ruthless. The Sainthood is the worst of the worst, they are involved in everything from drugs to guns, you name it and they probably have their hands in it. These boys are junior members who are currently going through initiation to become senior members, Saint is also the son of the President of the gang. The boys are no stranger to danger and aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty.

They are all extremely different personality-wise but they all bring a certain something to their dynamic that makes them fierce and unstoppable. In the beginning, these guys are downright cruel to Harlow, she gives just as good as she gets but once certain things come to light… for the most part, that changes their tune. Harlow’s relationship with each of the guys is different, a few of the guys have a sordid past with her and there are still quite a few secrets regarding that past that we don’t have answers to yet.
, ℎ, , , ’ ℎ.
is the leader of the guy’s group. He’s cruel at times and possessive of Harlow ALL the time. Harlow and Saint’s connection is the strongest out of the guys. Although in the beginning, Saint is the cruelest of them all, eventually once they decide to play on the same team, we see a few tender moments between Harlow and Saint. Revealing just how much Saint cares for her, whether he realizes it or not…
, . ’ ℎ ’ .
is Saint’s cousin and best friend. But out of the guys, Galen seems to hate Harlow the most. Although we are still unsure WHY he hates her so much. He’s distrustful of her and although Galen worries Harlow will disrupt the group dynamic the Sainthood boys have, I believe it will be his distrust that causes the most disruption…
is the charming, funny, playboy of the group. He keeps things lighthearted… well as lighthearted as a war amongst gangs could possibly be anyways. Out of the guys, I think Caz is the sweetest.
’ , ’ .
is the tech wiz of this merry band of gangsters. But to me, Theo is the biggest mystery of them all… Harlow and Theo dated years ago when they were young teens but when she needed him the most, he disappeared on her. Even during their “group” times, Theo tends to stand back, as if he knows that’s what Harlow needs from him. I can’t wait to find out more about their history and why he left when he seems like he’s absolutely still in love with Harlow.
’ . ’ ℎ . , ’ ℎ ℎ .
() : is honest to god one of the best heroines I have seen in a really, really long time. She’s tough as nails, strong, independent, fierce, and she makes no apologies! The girl can kick and shoot her way out of most situations, she is a total badass! I love that she does her own thing without worrying about what other people think about her promiscuous behavior and attitude.
’ . ’ ℎ .
/: Not one, but FOUR dark, delicious, and demanding guys and they all want one girl…? UMMMM.. do I really need to say more? Harlow and the Sainthood boys all put together are like fire and gasoline, there is bound to be an explosion! The animosity between Harlow and a couple of the guys just makes their chemistry burn that much hotter! That first “group” scene… WOW, excuse me while I go and wipe the drool off my chin! Resurrection was so steamy that I had to keep fanning my Kindle just to make sure it didn’t catch on fire! Don’t even bother with panties ladies, you won’t need them for this one!
ℎ ℎ . , ℎ ℎ .
/: TALK ABOUT A CLIFFHANGER!! Holy heck are you trying to kill me, Siobhan?!? I have had some cliffhangers before but this one… JAW DROPPING, UN-FREAKIN-BELIEVABLE!!! I am DYING to find out what happens next in book two, Rebellion. My jaw is STILL on the floor you guys! I don’t have a doubt in my mind that the rest of this series will be just as addicting and absolutely amazing as Resurrection!
: There are difficult subjects that could be considered triggers. If you would like to know more about what those are, feel free to DM me! Resurrection is about GANGS and GANG activity… just from that, you should be able to figure out that there are some uh-hmm… activities… that could be considered triggers.
.
HOLY! So much drama, action, sexual heat, chemistry and violence in one book! Tons of roller coaster emotions so fast.
A reverse harem, high school bully MUST by author Siobhan Davis. The Cliffhanger ending will have you needing more!
I was given a copy and am voluntarily giving my honest review.
Siobhan Davis best book yet, the only thing I don’t like about it is that I can’t read it for the first time again. Sizzling chemistry between the main players that oozes off the page. Just when you think you know how the story will go the rug is firmly and spectacularly ripped out from under you and you’re left wondering what happened. So many side quests that leave you thinking who’s team people are really on. While this is only book 1 in the series it lays the groundwork for what I can tell will be a hell of a ride.
Wow omg wow omg wow!!!!! This was my first time ever reading reverse harem book and ohhhhhhh my I was NOT disappointed!!!!!!! At first I was like hmmmm would I like it would I be able to get into it would I be able to finish it?!?! Boy what a ride!!!! Harlow was hands down a BAD A$$$$$$$$$$$$!!!!!! She was nothing what I expected!!! She was a rich princess that clearly knew how to hold her own and had everyone fooled. Model student with a 4.1 GPA with her eyes set on attending Brown. I didn’t expect all that badness in the model student and citizen. Then enter the Sainthood: Saint, Galen, Caz and Theo, . They all had something different. Caz was a bit funny, Theo was sentimental towards Harlow and they had history, Galen despised her but at times seemed into her, and Saint you can tell was falling in love with her. There were so many secrets so many players involved you didn’t know who will cross who next so much action that you just couldn’t get away from it. And that ending?!!! That revelation?! O M G!!!!!!! I can’t wait for book 2 because that’s when everything will hit the fan.
Oh this story. I was pulled in from the first page. Our heroine, Harlow, is one feisty chick and isn’t afraid of who she is. She oozes sexuality, is smart and calculated with what she does, and dangle that in front of the Saint, Galen, Caz and Theo, they are basically putty in her hand making these powerful guys with their hard exterior and equally as smart and calculated minds, melt before her.
Harlow’s dad has just died and as devastated as she is she knows this was no accident and sets out to find out what really happened. Her dad was always pushing her to be better, training her, giving her skills she could use against people. She knows he done this to protect her from something and she must find out what!
The action starts right away and basically doesn’t stop until the last page. There is so much mystery with ‘The Sainthood’ and these boys but Harlow falls into their trap, and now their sights are set firmly on her. There is bullying, manipulation and sexual tension galore between Harlow and the guys. I’m not usually a fan of reverse harem but this one peaked my interest and with four hot dangerous sexy guys, you would be a fool to not want in on them;
Saint – He’s intense, pure alpha, leader of the group and someone your wouldn’t cross
Caz – He’s the more laid back of the group, outgoing and charming, but also deadly
Galen – So mysterious, intriguing, quiet and calculated. He has a hatred toward Harlow, but still wants her!
Theo – He has a softer side and knew Harlow when they were younger and have history together. He’s always calculating his next steps
This is another great start to a dark, mysterious and sexy series from Davis. The book ends in a cliffhanger that will leave you screaming at your kindle and counting down the days until the next release! It’s addictive and must read!
ARC received for an honest review – thank you
