This box set includes the first three books in the highly addictive Rydeville Elite series from USA Today bestselling author, Siobhan Davis, and is over 1,000 pages of heart-stopping angst, suspenseful twists and turns, and dark, twisted romance. Complete trilogy with HEA. In the power struggle between two elite groups, one feisty girl will bring them to their knees… their knees…
Life is a cruel game where only the most ruthless survive. It’s a truth my mother rebelled against, and she paid for it with her life. Now, I play their game. Publicly accepting the destiny that lies in wait for me when I turn eighteen.
But, behind closed doors, I plot my escape.
Trent, Charlie, and my twin, Drew, rule the hallways of Rydeville High with arrogance and an iron fist. I execute my role perfectly, hating every second, but they never let me forget my place in this world.
Everyone obeys the rules. They have for generations. Because our families have always been in control.
Until Cam, Sawyer, and Jackson show up. Throwing their new money around. Challenging the status quo. Setting hearts racing with their gorgeous faces, hot bodies, and bad boy attitudes.
Battle lines are drawn. Sides are taken. And I’m trapped in the middle, because I made a mistake one fateful night when I gave my V-card to a stranger in a blatant F you to my fiancé.
I thought it was the one thing I owned. A precious memory to carry me through each dark day.
I couldn’t have been more wrong.
Because the stranger was Camden Marshall, leader of the new elite and my perpetual tormenter. He hates me with a passion unrivaled, and he won’t be the only one. Fire will rain down if the truth is revealed, threatening alliances, and the power struggle will turn vicious.
My life will hang in the balance.
But I’ll be ready, and I’m not going down without a fight.
Due to mature content and themes, this series is recommended to readers aged eighteen and over. Trigger warning.

Word can not describe how this series made me feel. From book one to book three…it’s just beyond anything you can imagine. There were moments when throwing my iPad against the wall crossed my mind but wanting to know what comes next kept it firmly grasped in my hands until the last word. I hung on every single word like it was the difference between life and death… and sometimes it was. Siobhan is such an amazing writer. If you are looking for a read that will keep you turning the pages well after your suppose to be in bed…then this series is for you. Amazing read. I just didn’t think she could top book one, oh but every book is better than the last. Can’t wait for the other characters books to come out. Now to wait….patiently….or not so patiently lol.
Gah! I absolutley love this series! Abby and Kai’s story is EVERYTHING!!! Now we have the whole delectable series, right at our finger tips. 1,149 pages of pure thrilling suspense and knock your socks off steaminess, that only the master can deliver!! You won’t be able to put the book down, but trust me, you will not want to! Siobhan is a mad genius!!!
Cruel Intentions
5 Stars
I’m not going to lie. This book was really hard for me the first 25%. There were a couple scenes that made me want to stop reading. But I’m happy I didn’t stop. It really is a good book.
The story is told from Abogail’s POV. We don’t get a glimpse of what the other characters are thinking. Which makes it hard to know who’s on what side.
This book will have you questioning a lot of things. You won’t know from one page to the next who you should be rooting for and who you want to have locked away.
I don’t want to say too much about this book because I don’t want to spoil anything. Just know that there is some very difficult scenes in this book. It’s hard to look passed them. But in the end I hope everyone gets what’s coming to them. And it’s going to be a long 4 month wait to read how this whole thing goes down. At least we get another part in August, which is 2 months away.
Twisted Betrayal by Siobhan Davis
3 Stars
I’m so unsure about this book and series. Book one I had trouble getting into but LOVED the second half and was so happy I pushed through!!! This book I liked the first half, but the ending wasn’t for me.
It’s been a few days since I finished reading the book and my thoughts haven’t changed. I was hoping by clearing my head and reading a romcom would help, but I’m still frustrated and angry with what’s happened.
While I love Cam and Abby together this series isn’t feeling like a romance to me. I feel like it’s about how many twists and turns can be thrown in. How much of a shock factor there can be. This books reminds me more of a physiological thriller than romance.
With that being said I’m still sitting on the edge of my seating needing to know what happens. Though it isn’t if she ends up with her love interest it’s what happens to other characters and if they get what’s coming to them.
Sweet Retribution by Siobhan Davis
4 stars
We finally have the conclusion to Abby and Kai’s love story. This trilogy has pulled out every emotion from me. I’ve been happy , sad , mad , angry , enough to want to throw my kindle and disgusted .
I love when books make me feel so much. It isn’t every book that I feel like I’m a part of the story. Siobhan has a way of writing like you’re right there with the characters, living in their world.
My biggest thing with the story is I feel like I still have questions that need answers. I think I know why one didn’t get answered. The main reason this book didn’t get 5 stars is because I don’t feel like I got the closure I needed.
I have to say some characters surprised me in this book! I fell even farther in love with a couple of them!! I really hope Drew gets a book because I’m so curious about him!!!
The first three books in this series need to be read together (and are sold in a box set), and the additional books stand alone. I actually listened to books 4 and 5 before the first three. I had put off listening to the first three because the high school setting isn’t usually my thing, but this didn’t feel like a high school book.
There was probably every trigger imaginable in the first three books of this series. What I enjoyed about it was that there was constantly more twists and turns throughout the series, and I never quite knew what to expect next. Books 1 and 2 end on a cliffhanger, which I why I was really happy to see them sold as a set. Even though I had already listened to books 4 and 5, I had no idea how crazy books 1 – 3 would get, and now I’d like to listen to 4 & 5 again. I think I would feel differently about those main characters after having met them in the original books and seeing entirely different sides to them
I listened to the audiobook. Tor Thom and Carly Robbins performed the audiobook in duet style. Their narration got even better over the course of the series as they added more distinct character voices to the narration.
Siobhan certainly took us on a journey with the first three books of Rydeville Elite.
Abby, daughter to one of the Original Elites, isn’t treated like the princess in this fairytale. Not a bit. What he father puts her through makes you want to take him out yourself. Her mother is gone and all she has is her twin brother who can’t even stand up for her the way he needs to. But don’t get it twisted, Abby is a fighter. This girls goes toe to toe up against the originals and forms the New Elites.
Cam, one day he’s just minding his business and boom a beautiful broken girl stumbles upon his path. Years later those paths cross again, only the girl that was once broken is ready to fight back. Cam is definitely one of those Hs that you hate one minute and love the next. You’re not sure if you want to root for him or beat him with a bat.
This is not a light read whatsoever, there are things that occur that will make your jaw hit the floor, but our girl does get her HEA.
Performed in Dual POV, Carly Robbins and Tor Thom were great on the audio.

**AUDIOBOOK REVIEW**
I previously read this series when it first came out and was obsessed! When the opportunity came to review to audiobook I didn’t hesitate and have fallen in love with this series all over again!!
Camden/Kai and Abby are easily one of my favorite book couples of all time. Their chemistry sizzles and together they are a powerhouse!
This three book series audio was dual narration by Tor Thom and Carly Robbins. These narrators did a fabulous job bringing this story and these characters to life.
If you are looking for a steamy listen with some mystery and action, this one is a must listen!!
Rydeville Elite Box Set by Siobhan Davis is a dark high school bully romance series that I listened to on audio narrated by Carly Robbins and Tor Thom.
The series comes with a caution: “Due to mature content and themes, this series is recommended to readers aged eighteen and over. Trigger warning.”
I absolutely love Siobhan’s books! She does an amazing job pulling me into the stories and I end up binging a book a day. This series took me on a rollercoaster that I never wanted to get off. The chemistry between Abby and Kaiden is off the charts.
I will say I was really happy to have this series in a box set since book one and two ended in amazing cliffhangers.
I can’t wait to read the next book in the series that will follow Charlie, Jackson, Sawyer, and Drew.
Carly and Tor did an amazing job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life.
I would highly recommend this book if you like dark romances, bully romances, or romantic suspense.
Holy mackerel and then some. This box set was everything. I mean everything! Twists, turns, adventure, action, page turning, addictive and a total must read! Amazing narration.
Rydeville Elite Box Set: A Dark High School Bully Romance Trilogy was the first series that I read by Siobhan Davis. Everything about this series is FIRE. This series is not the typical type of series that I read, but the minute I started, I was HOOKED.
While the world that Abby exists in is dangerous, she is a total BA! Cam starts out as a high school bully, but their relationship builds so much over the series. There are SO many awesome supporting characters in this series as well: Sawyer, Jackson, Charlie, and Drew are complex in themselves.
I love every twist and turn of this series, it keeps you guessing until the very last page. I also have to give it up to Siobhan Davis! Her writing is amazing, she always writes her characters like you are right there with them! I have read all of her books ever since reading Rydeville!
Rydeville Elite was the first series I read that was written by Siobhan Davis. Dark Bully Romance is a trope I can read all day every day and Rydeville Elite is one of the best I have read. It had me on the edge of my seat the whole way through. Such an intense and dark story. Rydeville had so many ugly twists and turns. I honestly had a love/hate thing going on with this book. It was brilliantly written.
Abby is probably one of my all-time favourite female characters. Many emotions flooded me throughout the series and my heart just ached for Abby, time and time again. It was mind blowing how strong Abby was and just how much she puts up with, from a lot of different people. I loved the connection between Abby and Kai and their chemistry was so hot, it was off the charts!!! Oh, and then there is Jackson…. he was probably my favourite of the Rydeville guys.
I am really looking forward to reading more from this world.
I was immediately drawn into this story from the very first chapter of the very first book! Abby and Cameron’s connection was palpable and just jumped off the page. I loved their relationship and how strong Abby was – their banter was laugh out loud funny and was highly entertaining. The passionate moments between them were super hot. There were definitely some sick and twisted moments, but it just added to the allure of the story. The supporting characters were equally amusing, especially Jackson. Overall, amazingly well-told story from Siobhan, as usual!
Sweet Retribution perfection.
After such a long road of twisted-lies and betrayal, this last book was deliciously-perfect, it definitely throws you in a loop, and makes you wonder what will happen next? you end up, seeing the strength, love, and throughout the male-only world they live in, they’ve finally seen the light on the other end, of the tunnel.
So glad that all of these books have been put into one box set! The stories are amazing and I love having them all on one spot. The story is heartbreaking and will piss you off while you fall in love with the characters all the same!
It’s true. You will not regret picking up this box set and entering a world created so perfectly that your heart aches, soars, breaks and rejoices all within a couple of chapters. Written by a truly gifted author. I’m hooked and can’t wait for the next books in the series!
Love love love this series!
Jackson is my absolute favorite
Individual reviews posted for each book.
This box set was so good. We didn’t have to wait for each book but got to read it back to back. It also let me figure out some things that I missed when I read it as single books. I hope that when we get to see more from these characters it will leave us surprised. I absolutely love each character. I give it 5 stars. I voluntarily read and reviewed this box set.
This series took left me high and mighty will all the thrills, spins, lies, deceit, manipulations and so forth. I could go on and on about what this series had in store for me.
Siobhan Davis is probably the best author when it comes to all of the above and more. She knows how to write one hell of a series that will leave you gasping for air and you will not want to stop reading. This has been one of the best roller coaster rides I’ve been on in a while that has left me completely tattered, shattered and she found a way to stitch me back up in the end.
You guys don’t want to miss this thrilling series that will definitely leave you sitting at the edge of your seat, and don’t be surprised if you end on the floor from all the adrenaline rush.
How to explain my feelings for this series?………… It took me for an emotional rollercoaster. I had highs and lows. Laughter and tears. Rejoicing and cringing. Love and disgust. Honestly, just about every emotion you could have, I felt with this series. If you need more detail per individual book, check out my reviews. But just know. I approve.
If you are ready for some dark disturbing scenes, paired with some deliciously satisfying scenes, as well as just simply ready for the unknown then this series is for you.
Nervous. Oh, I totally understand. Worth it? Completely.
5 stars for the Rydeville Elite Box Set by Siobhan Davis. This box set contains book 1-3 in the Rydeville Elite Series. I was absolutely enthralled by this series. I could not put each book down. This is a bully romance at its finest. Not only are the high schoolers bullies but the adults are even worse. This series is about an Elite society and everything that comes with it. This series is disturbing, filled with drama, steamy scenes, and so much sexual tension. No matter what I say, it is not going to be good enough to describe this series and would not do Siobhan’s writing justice. You should really check out this box set, and be lucky that the 3 books are together so you don’t have to wait. You will fall in love and maybe even hate some of the characters like Cam, Abby, Sawyer, Jackson, Xavier, Drew, Charlie and all the others. I can not wait to read more about all these characters.
This series was nothing short of amazing! Each book was steamy and hot, and just impossible to put down!!
