Book Summary:
"Siobhan! Goodness. What a thrill ride with Harlow and her boys! I'm in love with them all!"-- Ilsa Madden-Mills, Wall Street Journal bestselling author
Rebellion, the shocking second installment in the all-new dark, reverse harem series The Sainthood- Boys of Lowell High from USA Today bestselling author Siobhan Davis, is available now!
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, 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.
My Thoughts:
Rebellion, the second book of The Sainthood-Boys of Lowell High Series, began where the first book, Resurrection left off. Harlow "Lo" doesn't know if she can trust the Sainthood, even though she wants to. Her feelings and emotional attachment have grown regarding Saint, as has her fondness for Theo and Caz. However, she distrusts Galen, with very good reason.
Lo is determined to take down Saints' dad, and head of the M.C., Sinner. The guys are on board, as they know what a vile man he is, and want him out of the picture just as much as Lo does.
What follows is a sequel where the stakes are much higher than book one. As the plot thickened, I found myself reading an addictive storyline that delivered more danger, suspense, steamy seduction, drama, and deceit than the first book in the series. Lo was faced with enemies on many fronts, but proved herself to be strong and resilient!
I could not tear my eyes away from my kindle, as I read Rebellion. The plot was so good, and I loved the unpredictability, surprises, and fast pace of this exciting storyline! The characters were fascinating, and I loved getting to know them better, and discovering their many layers, especially Lo and Saint. This is a story that must be read in order, as everything that happens is sequential, and built upon.
If you are looking for a story that you can completely lose yourself in, look no further! Rebellion was an excellent reading escape that flew by, and held me captive. It delivered everything that I could want in a story from suspense, danger, and surprises, to lust, seduction, and falling in love! If you enjoy reverse harem stories, The Sainthood-Boys of Lowell High Series should be at the top of your reading list. This is the best I have read in this sub genre. Siobhan Davis never fails to deliver an excellent story, no matter the sub genre!
Book Excerpt:
Things with Theo were always complicated yet simple. Difficult yet as easy as breathing. Our relationship now is no less complex, but I know I need to fix things with him. It’s no different from Galen in that regard. I can’t cause a divide in the group with me, Caz, and Saint on one side and Galen and Theo being frozen out on the other side. But even if I do patch things up with them, I still don’t see how it ends up working out. There are too many barriers to unity, especially with Theo.
I remove my hand from Caz’s. “Hey, could you give us a minute?” I gesture toward Theo.
“Sure.” He kisses my lips. “I’ll grab us a table.”
Theo lifts his head, his eyes finding mine, and I hate the anguish I discover there, because I know I’m partly responsible for it. I step toward him. “Hey.” I peer into his beautiful hazel eyes. Green is most prominent today, but his pupils are ringed in a layer of brown and amber, and I could stare at his handsome face all day. Tentatively, I reach out, cupping one side of his face. “You doing okay?”
He shrugs, looking away, and I tilt his face around with my fingers. “Don’t do that. Please.”
“It hurts so much to look at you sometimes,” he admits, his voice cracking a bit.
“I know.” I press my forehead to his, and my heart beats wildly out of control. “I’m sorry if I hurt you with Caz in the car.”
“It’s not that,” he says. “I just miss you, Lo. Miss the way we were.” His hands land on my hips.
“I miss you so fucking much,” I whisper. Tears sting my eyes, and I’m horrified. I pull back, because I can’t break down here. “Can we go to the park tonight? Just you and me. Like old times?”
His eyes turn glassy, and a soft smile graces his lips. “I would like that. We are long overdue a talk.”
I nod. “You hurt me, Theo, and I’m not sure I’m ready yet, but I want to try.”
“I want to try too, because I want to fix things with us.”
“Do you think we can?”
He shrugs. “I don’t know. I think I’m even more confused than I was back then.”
“Because of me or someone else?” I gently inquire.
His eyes pop wide. “Is it—”
I shake my head. “I don’t think it’s obvious.”
The door opens, and Caz pops his head out. “You guys coming or what?”
“Always so impatient.” Theo punches him in the arm, but he’s smiling. “We’re coming.” He reaches back, and I take his hand, letting him lead me inside.
