Everything changed the night my dad died.

The night I met Saint, Galen, Caz, and Theo.

Those manipulative a-holes set out to ruin me after our hot night together, but they didnโ€™t realize you canโ€™t destroy something thatโ€™s already broken. And it only works if the victim cares.

Which I donโ€™t.

Because Iโ€™ve been in hell for years, and nothing penetrates the steel walls Iโ€™ve erected.

Until The Sainthood decides I belong to them and cracks appear in my veneer. Their cruel games, harsh words, and rough touch awakens something inside me, and now, Iโ€™m in trouble.

They draw me deeper into their dangerous world, until Iโ€™m in the middle of all the violence and gang warfare, tangled up in all the secrets and lies, and thereโ€™s no turning back.

Because they own me.

And nothing has ever felt so right.

Iโ€™m exactly where I should be.

But with enemies on all sides, survival becomes a deadly game with no guarantees.

And, sometimes, saints become sinners.

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 ResurrectionOH.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!

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.

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…

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.

We hold on to one another as we ride the high and slowly come back down to earth. Our skin is sweaty, our breathing ragged, our heartbeats pounding, and the magnitude of the moment slams into me.

Powerful emotion batters me on all sides, and Iโ€™m drowning.

Tears prick my eyes, and for the first time since I was thirteen, I think I might cry on the outside.

Oh fuck. He canโ€™t bear witness to this.

I push him off me and hop up, unlocking the door and yanking it open. โ€œGet out.โ€ My voice wobbles and my arm trembles as I point at the open door. โ€œGet out and stay out.โ€

He stands, watching me with that fucking, intrusive lens of his as he scoops up his clothes. He stops in the doorway and turns to face me, gripping my chin painfully. โ€œThanks for the fuck, princess.โ€ He tweaks my nose. โ€œGuess it sucks to realize youโ€™re female after all.โ€

I shove him out, slamming and locking the door behind him, grab a pillow, and scream into it in pure rage. Then, I lose it, tossing shit around my room, dragging the covers off my bed, pummeling my fists into the wall until the skin tears, and doing everything I can to purge the emotion lashing me on all sides.

Itโ€™s preferable than giving in to the tears waiting in the wings, because Iโ€™ll be damned if I give Saint Lennox my first tears in five years.
