Reign by Siobhan Davis

3.0

Reign by Siobhan Davis is the third book in the The Sainthood – Boys of Lowell High. I would argue it could be the last book but there is a fourth book that is 10 years later after this one. This book also kept the reverse harem trope and including some male-on-male action in this one. It was nice to see the change in the dynamic and watch these characters learn how to adjust to their own urges and how it affected the group. There is a trigger of rape in this book as well.
This book is about bringing down Neo “Sinner” Lennox and his corrupted board member of the Sainthood and trying to keep Harlow, the main female character and her men, Theo, Caz, Saint, and Galen safe. They do this first off by getting married which makes the dynamic of their relationship only stronger and more possessive. Then they make alliances with different federal and secret organizations and surprisingly allies. This results in Sinner eventually being taken down and the boys and Harlow living out their life wishes.
One thing I really liked about this book was there was a lot of plot twists. Some of them I was so completely shocked especially one involving Saint. You never could guess what was going to happen later in the story. This was the main thing that kept me intrigued in the book. This to me was the hardest book to finish out of the whole series. I struggled to stay interested and considered not finishing it around 60%. I kept on purely just to see what happened. The plot twist with Saint was the main thing that I was like “Oh Sh**” and had to know what happened. The beginning was hard to get through because it was just a lot of sex (not a bad thing) or them just trying to put pieces together later on for a plan just to crumple. It just wasn’t as interesting to me like the other books.
One thing I really disliked about this book was during some of the sex scenes they would change the wording up and it would just make it hard to stay focused on what was going on. It would just derail the whole thought process of the book and scene.
This book gets 3 stars out of 5 stars. It wasn’t written poorly, and it only had one editing issue. It went along with the plot for the other books and like I stated before it had a lot of plot twists. I would have given it 2 stars, but the ending was a lot better than I planned on it being.
