Wicked Savage Cruel: Devils of Sun Valley High is the perfect storm of bad boys, burning passion, and bully romance that’ll have you hooked from the very first page. Imagine walking into a school where the Devils run the show—wicked, savage, and cruel. Roman, Emilio, and Dominique don’t just rule the halls, they own them, and if you’re unlucky enough to get in their way... well, good luck. 😈📚
This boxset brings you three full-length, heart-pounding stories that feature sizzling enemies-to-lovers tension, sports romance vibes, and plenty of steam. The Devils may be ruthless, but the women who capture their hearts—Allie, Bibiana, and Kasey—are no damsels in distress. These ladies tame the beasts, turning these alpha males into protectors with hearts as fierce as their tempers. Each couple's journey is a rollercoaster of angst, spice, and emotional gut punches. 🔥
“Roman may have started off making Allie’s life miserable, but their chemistry? It’s explosive—angst, heat, and steam, all wrapped up in one fiery package.”
Whether it’s Roman’s cocky, player persona getting turned upside down by Allie, or Emilio stepping up to the plate after a one-night stand leads to more than either he or Bibiana expected, these stories are packed with emotional depth. And don’t even get me started on Dominique and Kasey—their love-hate dynamic is off the charts. The tension is thick, the passion is raw, and their story is just getting started, leaving you hungry for more.
The diversity and cultural depth throughout these books give each character extra layers of complexity, making them not just engaging but relatable on a whole new level. Add in some epic banter, a bit of sports action, and steamy encounters that will make your heart race, and you've got a binge-worthy collection that you won’t want to put down.
If you love bad boy romances with plenty of edge, unrelenting passion, and just the right touch of redemption, Wicked Savage Cruel is calling your name. It’s intense, emotional, and oh-so-satisfying. 😍

This perfectly penned box set kept my eyes glued to the pages from start to finish! Each story centers around a different couple and comes brimming with all the feels, angst, and drama you can handle! I loved each one of these pairings, they each brought something special to the pages and had captivating stories to tell that gave my heartstrings one heck of a work-out! I highly recommend you get your hands on this set, it's characters are bound to find their way into your heart and torture it in the best possible way!!
Wicked Devil - Book #1
Everything in Allie Ramirez's life is changing and she can't doing anything to stop it. After losing her mother she is sent to live with a father she has never really known. And if that wasn't enough, she just found out the boy she gave her heart to didn't keep it safe like he promised, instead he cheated on her with her best friend. It's as if life has completely dumped on her, and she can't catch a break.

With returning to her prestigious academy out of the question she must attend public school at Sun Valley so she can finally get her diploma.

Cruel Devil - Book #3
Dominique Price has a problem... her name is Kasey Henderson and she just so happens to be the little sister of one of his teammates. A forbidden little sister at that! He tries to maintain his distaste for her, but the truth is he wants her, like he's never wanted anyone else. She is beautiful, infuriating, and his heart only beats for her... but having her could cost him everything!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion.

I have been wanting to start this series for so long and what better way than with this box set.
The bonus scenes where everything and being able to read the books back to back was really handy.
Each story is about a different couple and has all the feels that will leave your heart wanting more and your body craving these men. The books all interlinked in the best way, Daniela done an amazing job with how she wrote this.
Book 1 - Wicked Devil
Allie just wanted to make it through her senior year in peace but the moment she caught Roman's eye her plans went out the window. Their chemistry was explosive and every interaction they had made my heart flutter.
Allie is one strong female lead and even when she is broken she still puts herself back together and doesn't need a guy to fix her, she is more than capable of doing it herself. Roman is an alpha hole who really jumped to conclusions about things that he shouldn't have, but in the end he redeemed himself and made up for the things he said and did.
Book 2 - Savage Devil
Bibiana, I wasn't expecting her story at all but it was perfect. She is an amazingly strong character who just keeps going no matter what is happening in her life and trust me she goes through so much in this book! I loved how she learnt to accept help from her friends and not take on all of her struggles alone.
Emilio is the guy I always knew he was going to be. He is the ultimate boyfriend, granted he isn't always perfect and at first I really didn't like his behaviour but in the end he learns to put his own feelings aside and put the girl he's fallen in love with first.
Book 3 - Cruel Devil
Dominique and Kasey have chemistry that is off the charts yet they both try and deny it. I didn't realise just how broody Dom could be or how much of a jerk he is when it comes to Kasey. There is so much angst in this story and like the other two books there is plenty of challenges they will have to face.

“I’m not jealous. I’m possessive and I protect what is mine. Don’t confuse the two.”
YASSS!!! I thoroughly enjoyed the sultry balance of “machismo” and the multicultural alphas depicted in each story. Daniela Romero has made me an instant fan! Once I came across the blurb for Wicked Devil and found out about this compilation, I began reading and could not put the book down!
Sun Valley High is ruled by three Devils—Roman, Emilio, and Dominique. And the girls—Allie, Bibiana, and Kacey—are an equal match to tame these possessive alphas, in this sports romance boxset featuring three full length bully romance and enemies to lovers stories. As a new to me author, I was intrigued by the cultural diversity and complexity of the diverse take on this enemies-to-lovers, bully/forbidden one night stands that turn into more. The best part about this box set was not having to wait for the other interconnected stories; I quickly moved on through to Savage Devil, and finished Cruel Devil along with the bonus material, now left wanting more! Also, the spicy and steamy encounters were insanely hot…GAH, the classroom scenes were [insert your choice expletive! ;) ] and the chemistry was off the charts!
“I’m yours as much as you are mine. ”
Overall, as a collection, this rating is for continued world building, solid character development, and intriguing writing style. This compilation was perfect! Loved not having to wait except at the end for the upcoming release of book 4. If you prefer a dulcemente encanto (sweetly enchanted) read with so much angst and sizzle, then I recommend this series! I look forward to reading additional works by the author.
**TW: sensitive and triggering subjects include sexual assault, abuse, and loss in this collection.

Dark and twisted with a few trigger warnings that should be headed by those faint of heart! This is a series of short stories including some tough guys who rule their world with an iron will and the women that they decide to claim as theirs. Nothing is easy and the guys lean into being bullies, but the women end up getting their men and taming them too. It was a fun read and especially entertaining to be able to go right into the next story in the collection. A great way to get introduced to a series and the author. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Wicked Savage Cruel box set is the perfect introduction into the lives of three if the hottest Sun Valley High Devils around…and the women brave enough to tame them and claim them as their own. ;) And trust me—even if you’ve read these tireless separately before, you’re still going to want this amazing collection for your own to experience back to back stories of heartbreak, trauma, revelations and tons of unbridled passion, delicious hot steam and ultimately love…
Overall if bad boy, enemies to lovers, one night stand, hidden pregnancies, best friends sister, sports themed bully romances are you’re thing…then this set is definitely for you! For a more in depth review on the three full length stories…read on!
Wicked Devil
Holy heart wrenched—this story will straight up bring tears to your eyes! Like seriously…Holy heavens above—this book was absolutely amazing and hit me in ALL the feels!! This was my first time reading a book by Daniela Romero and let’s just say she truly knows how to weave a masterful story and create characters you love and feel for even beyond the last word of the last page. And the diversity?!? Yes!!! Absolutely love it!!
Allie is a new student at Sun Valley High, transferring in mid year after her life was torn upside down by her mothers death. I’ve never rooted for a character as much as I did for Allie as she’s definitely had quite the life experience. Just wanting to finally have a break, her move however puts her straight into the path of Roman: a king at the school.
Roman is your typical jock: cocky, conceited, has the entire school eating out of his hand and is a bit of a player. Roman, the true alpha dog that he is, sets his sights on Allie and is immediately drawn to her. Even if he’s arrogantly cruel about it, and almost ruins it a time or two with how he handles everything. However the heat between these two?!?! Let’s just say Roman and Allie are utterly explosive together and I absolutely loved every moment of their coming together! Their chemistry is off the charts, the angst so thick you could cut it with a knife and the sex scenes are hot and steamy, making for the perfect amount of spice and steam to pull you right in.
There are some scenes in here that will definitely pull at your heart and probably bring tears to your eyes, so read with a caution if you have triggers. However Daniela told this story in such a beautiful scene it seriously is worth the read. And the side character development was absolutely phenomenal! A definite must read for any high school bully fan!
Savage Devil, the second book in the Devil's of Sun Valley High series by Daniela Romero, was a fabulous dive back into the same world as the first one and did NOT disappoint! This story not only continues on from the first, reuniting us with characters we know and love as well as picking up with some dynamic and diverse new characters, it also delivers so much more by diving into a situation usually skirted around, teen pregnancy, and I’m 100% here for it as Romero does a phenomenal job of covering all the bases as well as creating some fabulous connections amongst the crew.
Bibiana is a intelligent, strong and beautiful young woman who has experienced a lot in her short life—including becoming pregnant after a brief walk on the wild side at 16. However she is determined to live as “normal” life as possible, by finishing school and being the best mom she can be—even as she struggles to maintain that level for herself and her child.
Emilio is the same lovable and hilarious jokester from the first book, but he’s also so much more! I love that we get to see more sides of him in this book, and really get to know him and see him evolve throughout the series. And i absolutely LOVE him for Bibi, his beautiful and intriguing Mariposa.
And then together? Perfection!!! Their evolution from a one night stand to the little loving family was portrayed beautifully—Romero truly knocked it out of the park with this one! And the hints about book 3 between Dom and Kasey? Yes!!!
Cruel Devil
If you thought the angst and heat you felt between Dominque and Kasey was off the charts before in the first two books…you haven’t seen anything yet!!! These two are the perfect example of a thin line between love and hate, and they definitely know how to push each other’s buttons and drawn out tons of angst and passion—and unrelenting hatred.
However, when tragedy strikes close to home, leaving Kasey lost and adrift and full of grief, those thin lines slowly start to dissolve and boundaries get crossed. And dang is it hot!!! 🔥 And while this story itself is part of a duet and leaves is with a slight cliffhanger, wondering what will come of these two and their hidden romance, or is very much worth the ride AND the wait!!! I can’t wait for book 4!!’

This contains the 3 books of the Devils of the Sun Valley High series, plus 2 short stories. Check the triggers before going into this, it's no romcom. I knew going in this was going to be dark, but I didn't expect it to get to that level. Also, what the fuck is wrong with these high school kids? It's so gratuitous and uncalled for, and mean! What in the animal kingdom is that? The author did a stellar job with the writing, pulling me down and making me feel all that desperation, darkness and frustration. And even if they are in high school, it's categorized as new adult, and there is nothing YA about this romance.
Book 1 - Wicked Devil
Allie just moved in with her dad after her mom passed away. Her boyfriend slept with her best friend and dumped her the same day of her mom passing. She's now starting in a new school, Sun Valley High. On her first day, the dean assigns Roman to be her welcome committee and show her around, which Roman doesn't like, and he sure won't let her have it easy. But she doesn't care, she has nothing to lose now.
This is a dark, bully, enemies to lovers, sports, spicy romance. Roman is a really unlikable, alpha protective male, but Allie is such a badass! I liked Dom and Emilio. I also liked Aaron, I couldn't wait to find out what exactly happened to deserve him the Devils' wrath. I was expecting I'd have to wait through all three books, but I was glad it resolved by the end of this one. And I adored Julio, I wish we saw more of him. On the other hand, her dad is an ass. I hate him. And I liked his assistant, Janessa, at first, but I changed my mind pretty abruptly when that bitch convinces Allie not to say anything (IYKYK).
Book 2 - Savage Devil
Bibiana had a one night stand with a Devil, and she will never forget it... Especially not given the consequences of that one night. Emilio has no idea, because not only did they not exchange names, she moved away right after their night. Now, a year and a half later, she's back, and she wants to tell him the truth, but there is so much on the line. And she's not sure she's ready to make a deal with the devil.
This one is a one night stand, accidental pregnancy, bully, dark, sports, spicy romance. Accidental pregnancy is not my favorite trope, but this one was well done, and I loved how Emilio stepped up right away. I'm also glad we get some follow up on Roman and Allie, and on Allie's case. And I loved how the school accommodates Bibi with Luis, and how all the devils (and the girls, and Emilio's brothers) step in to help as aunts and uncles.
Book 3 - Cruel Devil
Kasey is convinced Dominique, her brother's, Aaron, best friend, hates her. The thing is, he wants her. But she refuses to be just another game to win.
This is one is a taboo, best friend's little sister, enemies with benefits dark, bully, spicy romance. I couldn't wait to read Dominique's story, he was my favorite of the 3 devils in the first 2 books, and there were plenty of hints on what his story would be about (and who with). I have to admit I was dreading doing into this one, because I knew who it was about and it was categorized as taboo, and there are taboos I don't mind much, but I was afraid of this one. Luckily, this book takes place a few years after the second book, so Kasey is not 14 anymore. This was another hard one, and the author yet again made me cry. It feels a bit unfinished, and it ends on somewhat of a cliff hanger, but I know Dominique and Kasey's story continues in book 4.
Mischief Managed
In this short story, Kasey is still grieving hard and is desperately clawing to sex with to help her forget. It was fun to see Deacon's POV.
Holiday Sext
This one is about 2 characters, Penélope and Roberto. They went to Sun Valley High, and Roberto is Emilio's brother. I mainly felt a disconnect with the rest of this box set, and I was craving more of the devils, (who are still present in this one), but I was excited to get to book 4 of the series, so I could've done without this one, but it was still a fun read.
I received an advance review copy of this book for free and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Book 1 - Wicked Devil
Allie just moved in with her dad after her mom passed away. Her boyfriend slept with her best friend and dumped her the same day of her mom passing. She's now starting in a new school, Sun Valley High. On her first day, the dean assigns Roman to be her welcome committee and show her around, which Roman doesn't like, and he sure won't let her have it easy. But she doesn't care, she has nothing to lose now.
This is a dark, bully, enemies to lovers, sports, spicy romance. Roman is a really unlikable, alpha protective male, but Allie is such a badass! I liked Dom and Emilio. I also liked Aaron, I couldn't wait to find out what exactly happened to deserve him the Devils' wrath. I was expecting I'd have to wait through all three books, but I was glad it resolved by the end of this one. And I adored Julio, I wish we saw more of him. On the other hand, her dad is an ass. I hate him. And I liked his assistant, Janessa, at first, but I changed my mind pretty abruptly when that bitch convinces Allie not to say anything (IYKYK).
Book 2 - Savage Devil
Bibiana had a one night stand with a Devil, and she will never forget it... Especially not given the consequences of that one night. Emilio has no idea, because not only did they not exchange names, she moved away right after their night. Now, a year and a half later, she's back, and she wants to tell him the truth, but there is so much on the line. And she's not sure she's ready to make a deal with the devil.
This one is a one night stand, accidental pregnancy, bully, dark, sports, spicy romance. Accidental pregnancy is not my favorite trope, but this one was well done, and I loved how Emilio stepped up right away. I'm also glad we get some follow up on Roman and Allie, and on Allie's case. And I loved how the school accommodates Bibi with Luis, and how all the devils (and the girls, and Emilio's brothers) step in to help as aunts and uncles.
Book 3 - Cruel Devil
Kasey is convinced Dominique, her brother's, Aaron, best friend, hates her. The thing is, he wants her. But she refuses to be just another game to win.
This is one is a taboo, best friend's little sister, enemies with benefits dark, bully, spicy romance. I couldn't wait to read Dominique's story, he was my favorite of the 3 devils in the first 2 books, and there were plenty of hints on what his story would be about (and who with).

Wicked devil...
My first read by Daniela Romero and what a read!! It's a high school bully story and I've been on run of this genre so I was kinda expecting more of the norm if I'm honest - I shouldn't have!
Instead of the usually loaded main man who rules the show and the poor new girl who physically fights back; we get the main man who rules the show but he isn't loaded - he is a plonker but he's redeemable 😘
And we get Allie, and damn that girl broke my heart! She's been moved to a new town, new school, new family and she just doesn't belong!
She's not someone who can fight the world, she can stand up for herself but physically she's not as strong as she wants to be.
There are triggers in this book so be aware because the author has written it perfectly - I cried! It hit me so deep that it made me cry so be prepared!
I don't want to say anything else about the story, just be prepared for everything else to disappear because this will pull you in!
An excellent read 4.5
=
Savage Devil
We know of Emilio from book 1, the fun-loving, woman-loving, easy-going hunk! He's a player who always has a smile on his face and he's loveable.
Then we have Bibiana, she's new in town, has just moved with her mum and her mums boyfriend, and her little'un Luis.
She had an unforgettable one-night stand 18months ago - and guess who with....
This is a story of having to grow up quickly, especially when other people are depending on you. It's about people coming together and looking out for each other. Always. Family isnt just blood!
Another top read 4.5/5
=
Wicked Cruel...
Dom & Kasey's story and throughout the previous books we see that these two are fire, when they're in the same room, you can feel the tension, along with an undeniable attraction. You don't know if they want to kill each other or if they want to tear each others clothes off....I think it's both!! He's determined to keep it the former because she's too young.
Anyway, fast forward 3 years, Dom's at Uni with the other devils, and now Kasey is transferring early....guess what happens?!
Throw in a twist that will have you distraught and be prepared....for a cliffhanger because this is only a tester!!
So can't wait for their story - explosive is the best description I can think off!!
4star
Overall, an excellent boxset, I'll definitely be reading more of her work and Cruel Promise is at the top of my tbr list!!
Bonus material:
Mischief managed....
Although this starts with Kasey & Dom, it's actually Deacons story! I'll admit, from the start I've not been a fan of his, but he's different in this book and there's no denying I'm hoping he takes the scholarship and we get his full story!!
Holiday Sexy...
We met Roberto in passing really in Emilio's book. He's the older brother who left as soon as he got 18 and enlisted. But when it all fell apart at home, he came back and he's stayed.
This is where an old flame - first love, sexts him Xmas Eve.....a fun read.
*I voluntarily received an arc and this is my honest review.

Overall rating 3.5 ⭐️
Wicked Devil
3.5 ⭐️ This was such a fast read for me, finished in two sittings! Addictive writing and I overall enjoyed this standalone and am really looking forward to reading more books by this author!
I enjoyed the range of characters and how they fit into the story, and the style of writing made the story interesting and easy to binge.
There wasn’t much depth to anything that happened though, which was the main downfall for me as I love situations and characters to be explored. There was just one event after another with no real resolution/healing I guess. It kind of felt like her mum’s death and the other event, as well as Allie’s eating habits *no spoilers here* were just glossed over; I just would’ve liked for these to be explored a bit more as all the topics were quite serious.
The miscommunication from Roman was really annoying to experience but I generally despise that trope whenever I read it so I was glad it didn’t last too long before the situation was resolved.
Savage Devil 4 ⭐️
Wow, this was an angsty and hot read!
I flew through this novel and really enjoyed the fast pace of it. The steamy scenes were super sexy, and the characters broken, mess and complicated which is just the way I like them!
The writing flowed and I honestly just couldn’t put it down! I really enjoyed the way motherhood was written and the realness of the story, events and the characters reactions. The characters annoyed me at points and there was a fair bit of drama, but it is a high school romance so it would be weird not having any.
Gonna say now that I really hope for an epilogue in the future of what all these characters are up to have high school coz it’s killing me not knowing!!
*spoiler-ish*
Taking the baby to school was the only part of the story that I didn’t really enjoy/couldn’t get into the idea of. Not sure whether that actually happens in other countries, but here in Aus I just couldn’t even fathom something like that happening and working out so well coz school is dirty and dangerous, and kids are cruel lol. But it is a nice concept to have people that care about a young mum, dad and their bub that much!
Cruel Devil 3.5 ⭐️
I enjoyed the fast pace of this book and how easy it was devour.
Unfortunately, I just couldn’t connect with this story or the characters as much as I did with the first two books. With everything being quite dramatic and over the top, and the events that were all so impactful pushed together so quickly, I couldn’t make any emotional connection to what was happening. I thought being collage based that the story professing would have maybe had the characters grow up a little bit.
Hopefully these MCs sort themselves out in the last book, but I’m not sure where the author is going to take it from here.
Bonus content
The novellas at the end were fun and fast reads! The writing/actions for our characters are still quite immature which I don’t really enjoy to read when things are collage based, but great little fillers.

must read!!
So I actually read Wicked Devil and Savage Devil last July and I absolutely loved them. I held off on Cruel Devil because I knew it was a duet and wanted to wait closer to the release of the second book. When I saw the chance to refresh my memory and comment on all three, I had to!
First thing I’m going to say is look at the trigger warnings. They do hit some sensitive topics so please be warned.
Wicked Devil
I absolutely loved Allie as a FMC. She was very down to earth and was trying to make life work for her. After losing her mom, she is forced to live with her estranged father. Romeo is the ‘Top Dog’ and what he says goes. Say the wrong thing and he will have you iced out by the entire school in minutes.
This is definitely a dark bully romance. Romeo doesn’t want to make things easy for Allie and he uses every opportunity to make things hard for her. A weekend away with majority of her school mates changes things between them.
As they start to navigate through their new relationship, tragedy strikes and Allie is left to heal all on her own. What will Romeo do when he realizes that he wasn’t there when she needed him the most? Can she work past it?
I honestly cried throughout half of this book. Allie and Romeo took me through such an emotional ride that I was left exhausted after I read it. The hard topics that were hit with such understanding, realness and honesty.
Wicked Devil
Bibiana and Emilio are probably my favourite couple of the series so far. Bibiana decides to let lose for one night and lose her virginity to a total stranger the night before she moves out a town.
Circumstances change and she returns 18 months later with her 9 month old son. In a twist of fate, they end up in the same school and the chemistry that they had in the past is still burning hot. How will Emilio reacted when he finds out about his son?
I love how some of the story line from the first book makes it way into this story and they are able to continue with it from a different point of view. Emilio is a play boy that never forgot his ‘Mariposa’ and he wants to prove to her that he has changed.
Cruel Devil
This is a duet for Dom and Kaseys story. Kasey is four years younger then Dom and he has always fought his attraction for her.
She is his friends baby sister and they just started to reconnect again after a huge fail out. Dom doesn’t want to rock his friendship with Aaron but he can’t keep his hands off Kasey.
When Kasey gets attention from another boy, will this give Dom to push he needs?
My heart broke for Kasey and Aaron in this book. What they go through is just awful and I really felt for the characters. Casey and Dom’s relationship is a bit of a slow burn with some spicy scenes. I honestly can’t wait for her to release Cruel promise so I can see how their story ends.

Wicked Savage Cruel is a boxed set of the first three books in the Boys of Sun Valley High series. The books follow three separate couples, but the male main characters are best friends and the stars of their high school football team.
In Wicked Devil, Allie is the new girl at the school and Roman, pretty much the most popular guy at the school star of the football team is tasked with showing her around the school when he gets in trouble at school yet again. He starts off making her life miserable, but he is also attracted to her, which causes a lot of mixed signals in the course of getting to know each other.
Allie went through a very traumatic experience adding to the difficult treatment she was already enduring at school. I think the author did a good job with such a sensitve and important topic.
I enjoyed the friendship the guys have with each other and the comraderie they share and their banter. Overall it was an engaging and interesting read, though difficult at times do to Allie's experience.
Savage Devil is book two in the series and is a one night stand romance, where I felt like both main characters fell for each other pretty quickly. Emilio and Bibiana meet at a party and have a steamy night of fun where no personal information about themselves is exchanged. Much later, Bibiana shows up at the same school Emilio attends and she has a surprise for Emilio.
I really enjoyed how Emilio stepped up to the plate and pushed to be in Luis's life. I think both did such an amazing job at taking care of him. I love how all of the friends stepped up to take care of Luis when needed. That is one loved little boy. While I enjoyed reading about the growth of Emilio and Bibiana's relationship, this book was all about family and friendship for me.
Cruel Devil is the third book in the series and focuses on the long-awaited story of Dom, the QB, and his friend's little sister Kasey. They met when Kasey was a freshman and now Dom is in college and Kasey is moving into the same college as a seventeen year old. They have always had an antagonistic relationship where they each live to irritate the other, but beneath that is an attraction to the other that each feels but neither will show, or act on.
This story was very angsty and emotional and does end unfinished. It seems as though their story continues in the next book, Cruel Promise, and I am definitely intrigued to see where things ae going to go for these two.
Overall this boxed set has been highly enjoyable. These stories have hooked me and kept me invested and I would definitely recommend these stories. I look forward to reading the remaining books in the series.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of this book. All opinions expressed are my own.

Growth, Strength, Maturity, Responsibility - get ready for this roller coaster!
Devil's of Sun Valley High Boxset follows a group of teenagers that the author writes them into serious situations which they grow through maturity and take on responsibility. Each of the books continues with the duos in with different situations, but not alone. Each book is set in such a way that it takes you through an emotional roller coaster. Really great writing, they all sucked me in the entire way through this boxset.
Wicked Devil #1 with Allie & Roman
Once Allie's mother passed away, her estranged father steps in and whisks her unhappily away from foster home steps to preppy. Roman Valdez, the self appointed Devil of Sun Valley High and head over heels infatuated with Allie instantly.
Definitely a rough, emotional read at points with everything Allie goes through. Second chance romance occurs once Roman gets his head out of his ass and redeems himself.
Savage Devil #2 with Bibiana & Emilio
One no strings attached night before Bibiana moves away throws Emilio into her path. Their storyline follows the emotional and physical toll that teenage pregnancy and parenthood. The original group of three Devils grows into a maturity further.
Intertwines with the Allie's sexual assault to form a closure riddled with the unfair justice system. Moves closer to graduation for the group and adds Dominique and Kasey a lot.
Cruel Devil #3 with Kasey & Dominique
Moves the group from high school to university where Kasey starts early as a freshman and Dominique is still pursuing his football dreams to go pro.
This is the first part of their enemies to lovers romance that also includes paralleling issues her brother, Aaron, is also working through. Kasey and Dom's fire and ice relationship turns into steam right at the edge of their cliffhanger. Their story continues in Cruel Promise.
Bonus Mischief Managed with Kasey & Deacon (the second string quarterback) is a short story previously featured in the Hallowed Nights Anthology (no longer in publication). Timeline is a couple months after Cruel Devil and highlights how reckless Kasey had become after her mother's demise. Deacon's POV gave surprising insight and a glimpse into his storyline merging with Allie's friends.
Bonus Holiday Sext with Penelope & Roberto (Emio's brother) is a short story previously featured in the Scoring Over The Holidays Collection.
Bahaha:
"Twas' the night before Christmas when I sexted my ex..."
Penelope's recent break-up with her cheating boyfriend has her dialing her ex, Roberto after too many peppermint schnapps.

This boxset is AMAZING!!!! And the bonus content made my heart so happy!! I ADORE this series so much, and can't wait for more of these Devils!!!
*Wicked Devil*
This book will rip your heart out then piece it back together!
Allie has had her life ripped apart, and now has to go live with the Dad she doesn't know in a rich town and start her senior year at a new school.
When Allie starts at Sun Valley High, she catches the 3 Devils attention. Roman, Emilio and Dominique are the hot jocks that run the school, and Roman wants Allie. They have such amazing chemistry and I adore them together!
When something terrible happens to Allie, she withdraws from everyone and Roman doesn't take it very well. When he finds out the truth, ugh my heart 😭
This was my first book by Daniela, and now I'm OBSESSED! I absolutely loved this book and I'm on to book #2!
*Savage Devil*
I love Emilio and Bibi!
Emilio is a total player and part of the Devils. He hasn't had a great family life, but hides all this behind his charming, player persona.
Bibiana goes to a party one night, wanting to lose her v card before moving away. Emilio gladly takes it after they agree to one night, no names and no trading numbers. And oh boy, what a night it is!
9 months later, Bibi has a son named Luis. Then 9 more months, she moves back to Sun Valley High. Emilio is out to make her pay for ghosting him and Bibi has a cute little secret that he is not expecting.
Holy crap, another AMAZING book in this series!! I love this book so much and I love how we still get Allie and Roman and the rest of the gang. On to book #3!!
*Cruel Devil*
Yay, Dom and Baby Henderson's story!!!
Kasey is starting college at 17, and at the same school our Devils and their loves. She moves in with her brother Aaron, who also has Dom living with him. Dom and Kasey kissed one time in high school, but Dom knows she is forbidden, and they act like they hate each other, but the tension is 🔥🔥🔥🔥.
We also get a lot of Aaron's story in this one and I am here for it!! And after that cliffhanger, I can't wait for the next book!!! Daniela, I am obsessed with this series!!
This whole series will have you feeling all the emotions and the bonus content has me even more invested in this world! I am now a forever fan of Daniela Romero!!!

This whole series will have you feeling all the emotions and the bonus content has me even more invested in this world! I am now a forever fan of Daniela Romero!!!

This impeccably crafted collection of stories had me engrossed in its pages from beginning to end! Each tale revolves around a different couple, delivering an abundance of emotions, turmoil, and riveting drama. I adored every one of these pairings; each brought a unique essence to the narrative, treating my heartstrings to an intense workout! I wholeheartedly recommend you lay your hands on this compilation; its characters are sure to find a place in your heart and tug at it in the most delightful way!
Book #1: 'Wicked Devil'
Allie Ramirez's life is in the midst of a transformation she cannot halt. Following the loss of her mother, she's sent to live with a father she scarcely knows. To add to her troubles, she's just discovered that the boy she entrusted with her heart didn't protect it as promised; instead, he betrayed her with her best friend. Life seems to have dealt her an unfair hand, and she can't seem to catch a break. This sentiment becomes even more pronounced when she strolls through the halls of Sun Valley High and crosses paths with one of the school's finest, Roman Valdez!
Book #2: 'Savage Devil'
Bibiana only desired one wild night to break free from her usual responsible and good-girl persona, and her wish was granted. However, it came at an unexpected price: she now finds herself a loving mother to a nine-month-old baby boy. Returning to her prestigious academy becomes impossible, forcing her to attend Sun Valley public school to earn her diploma. She's apprehensive about the change, but nothing could have prepared her for the person she encounters on the first day: her child's father.
Book #3: 'Cruel Devil'
Dominique Price faces a dilemma: her name is Kasey Henderson, and she happens to be the younger sister of one of his teammates. Not only that, she's a forbidden temptation. He struggles to hide his disdain for her, yet deep down, he desires her like no one else. She's stunning, exasperating, and his heart beats only for her. However, pursuing her could jeopardize everything he holds dear!

“Wicked Savage Cruel” by Daniela Romero
In a high school where football is everything, the top players rule everyone at Sun Valley Highschool.
Allie moved when her mother died to live with her absent father. Now enrolled in a new high school she wants to blend in and get by until she’s eighteen. Roman won’t let that happen. Bent on causing as much chaos as possible he toys with Allie, making her everyone’s target and being his new toy. When feelings start to catch it gets complicated.
Bibiana has gone back to school after being a teen mom and vows to not let anyone know and just get her diploma. Her time in school gets complicated when she runs into her baby daddy on the first day. She never told him about the baby, but will she find the right time to tell him? Maybe not because Emilio is determined to play her like he felt she played him last year. Can they find a way to be a happy family?
Kasey, the little sister of one of the boys in the group is now in college but still way to close to Dominique. Always starting fights and bickering with each other. Dominique has been attracted to Kasey for a long time but cannot seem to be nice to her. Kasey, while physically attracted to Dominique, hates his guts. When Kasey’s life gets turned upside-down with a family tragedy everything starts to spiral out of control. Can they be nice to each other long enough to admit they both want to be an item?
The stories were good but not really my thing. I don’t love how truly men these boys are to girls and that they think they are the coolest things to walk the earth. I say that because when reading these stories I was taken right back to high school and realized I do not miss how a lot of popular guys acted at that age. Playing football does not make them gods of the planet but they are so arrogant to think they actually are and just because of that. It was very realistic in that sense though, I just felt it was so cringe. The characters all deal with big hardships which I did like such as rape, teen pregnancy, abuse, drugs, alcohol, etc. even though I didn’t love it I still think it was good and worth a read. 3 out of 5 stars.

Set against the backdrop of Sun Valley High, where the Devils rule the halls, Romero weaves tales of passion, redemption, and unlikely love.
The Devils aren’t just the school mascot—they’re the reigning kings of Sun Valley, notorious for their wicked ways, savage charm, and cruel antics. When they target someone, they don’t hold back, leaving a trail of chaos in their wake. However, these stories are more than just tales of torment; they explore the resilience, courage, and transformative power of love as three strong-willed young women take on the Devils.
Each story in this boxset brims with heart-pounding tension, electric chemistry, and character growth. Whether it’s a bad boy athlete falling for the one girl who challenges him, a brother’s best friend navigating forbidden feelings, or a one-night stand turning into an unexpected romance, Romero expertly balances angst and allure. The male leads are unapologetically flawed, embodying the “bad boy” archetype with a depth that keeps readers invested in their journeys toward redemption.
Meanwhile, the female protagonists shine as they push back against the Devils' dominance. Fierce and relatable, they show strength in vulnerability, making it impossible not to root for their happily-ever-afters. Romero doesn’t shy away from the messy emotions and complexities of young love, capturing the highs and lows of teenage relationships with a raw, authentic edge.
Packed with sports romance themes, sizzling chemistry, and captivating dynamics, *Sun Valley High Devils Boxset* delivers three full-length stories guaranteed to keep readers hooked. With a satisfying blend of drama, desire, and redemption, these HEAs prove that even the most wicked Devils can be tamed.

4.5 star series (so far)
Wicked Devil 4.5 ⭐ I read book 2 in this series first, but as a lot of the healing and fallout from this book is handled there, I knew I had to circle back and read Allie's story. I'm really glad I did. It's heavy in spots not just to do with what happened to Allie, but there's a content warning at the beginning advising which chapters to avoid or skim, so that's appreciated. I was hooked on this and this whole group dynamic so much I'm already half way through book 3. I would say this is billed as an enemies to lovers romance and I wouldn't exactly say that's true, but it is a really strong romance and a fantastic story overall. Highly enjoyed and I'm really on the lookout for whatever else this author brings out in this world.
Savage Devil 4.5 ⭐ I thought I had a vague idea of what I was expecting with this, but honestly I was blown away. I wasn't expecting such raw emotion. Not for my heart to be stolen by a 9 month old child. The way the friend group rallies around and takes Bibi into their circle before they even know the score is exactly what I wanted. I have unfortunately slept on this author but man is that about to change. Big time. I volunteered to listen to a complimentary copy of this. All opinions in this review are my own.
Cruel Devil (and the bonus material) 4.5 ⭐ Finally get the start of Dominique and Kasey's story. It ends on something of a cliffhanger, because Kasey (and Aaron) go through something tragic in this and as Aaron already is spiralling with his other baggage, Kasey finds she turns to Dom to take her mind off of that. Dom and Kasey have always been at each others throats so you can imagine the sparks. I cannot wait to see how it will spin out, I expect a lot more angst to come.
PLEASE CHECK TW's for these, (especially books 1 and 2) I volunteered to read and review an early copy of this. All opinions are my own.

Genre/Tropes: NA, Boxset, High School
POV: 1st, Dual
Series: Devils of Sun Valley High
STEAM LEVEL: 🔥🔥🔥
——————
I’ve wanted to read this series for a while so when I saw it was coming out in a box set with bonus scenes, it was like a sign from the book gods that it was time. Three books. Three couples. Three amazing, angsty reads.
#1 Wicked Devil
This is Allie and Roman’s story and it is probably my favorite. These two were push and shove gloriousness and filled with so much angst! Allie was a strong FMC and I loved how she never backed down. Roman was a bit of an alphahole (in a not so good way) but he eventually redeemed himself. I’ll admit he was a bit judgmental for most of the book but when he finally saw the truth, I adored him!
#2 Savage Devil
This is Bibiana and Emilio’s story. After a one-night stand, Bibiana is left with a present she wasn’t expecting. Emilio was actually quite amazing. At first he seemed a bit immature but it’s a high school romance so it’s understandable. By the end, that boy had me swooning and I was so proud of the growth Bibiana showed throughout the story.
#3 Cruel Devil
Dominque and Kasey are the third story and man oh man we’re these two combustible! Kasey was the younger, forbidden sister of one of Dominque’s teammates but he just couldn’t resist her. He was so moody and I have to say this one was probably the most angsty of the three. Their HEA was VERY hard fought.
Add in the great bonus scenes, and I have to say this is one addictive series full of angst, passion, drama, and so much deliciousness.

Wicked Savage Cruel: Devils of Sun Valley High is a box set of three books - Wicked Devil, Savage Devil and Cruel Devil.
Wicked Devil is the story of Roman and Allie. Allie has lost her mother, found out her boyfriend has been cheating on her with her best friend, and has to move to live with her father, whom she has never really known. Life has completely turned on her and she can't seem to catch a break. Then she meets Roman, and the chemistry is off the charts. He is all alpha and she doesn't need a man to fix her life, but the two end up finding a balance.
Savage Devil is the story of Bibiana and Emilio. After one wild night of letting her hair down and be someone besides the good girl who does what she is told. One night comes with an expected surprise, and she's now the mom to a sweet baby boy. She transfers to Sun Valley High to finish her diploma and runs smack into her baby daddy. The two navigate co-parenting and their relationship, and the results are perfection.
Cruel Devil is the story of Dom and Kasey. This relationship is hinted at throughout the first two books, and I was so happy that book three was theirs! These two are the perfect example of enemies to lovers, and a thin line between love and hate. Dom is there for Kasey during one of the worst moments of her life. The two start to recognize their feelings for each other, but agree that keeping it a discreet is best for them, and her brother.
I loved this series. I tore through it in a couple of days, and want more of the Sun Valley Devils.

Wicked Devil: Allie and Roman's story. This story starts off with him wanting to make her life awful at her new school as he thinks she is someone she is not. Allie has fire and holds her own but is struggling with her new life. She is now living with her Bio dad who she has never known and is not close too. The two of them both have past demons they need to get past but together they are unstoppable but they have to get there first. This story will rip your heart out and put it back together. I loved these characters so much they will give you the feels and they have super hot chemistry.
Savage Devil: Emilio and Bibiana's story is a one night stand that changed everything for both of them. He can't get her out of his mind and she has a reminder everyday of that night together. These who have so much going on that they can't give each other what they need. She feels that everyone leaves her and just wants her own family, while he struggles to give everyone all of him and just closes down. Emilio wants to do the right thing but can't get it out in the right way. The two of them have an incredible magnetic pull to each other they just need to get out of their own heads.
Then we finally get Dom and Kasey's story which starts off with so much sadness and regret that you will need many tissues. Dom is so protective of her that he will keep anyone way from her. There story is one you have to read as we have been anticipating it through the first two books. This series is fantastic and well worth the time to read.
I was give this book as an ARC for my honest review.

Daniela Romero handles delicate subjects beautifully throughout the Devils of Sun Valley High books and makes these coming of age stories truly inspiring. The emotions are heartfelt and there were moments when I had to stop and catch my breath. I took a step into a genre I usually wouldn't and I am so glad that I did. These characters are so life-like and I wish they were real so I could give them all hugs.
There's no better way to read a series than in a box set that also includes a little something extra included after reading the books back to back. This series starts with Wicked Devil (Roman and Allie), followed by Savage Devil (Emilio and Bibiana) and then Cruel Devil (Dominique and Kasey). The first two books are standalone but Cruel Devil leaves you wanting more with a little cliffhanger ending. There are some events that may be triggers so proceed with caution.
Each book centres around a different couple but they are all interconnected through their circle of friends. This series tells all about a trio of best buddies who are all seniors on the school football team. They are known by all their classmates as the Devils. They have their own code of conduct and they follow their own rules, their behaviour unlike regular jocks. Each of them meets their soulmate as a teenager and their world changes drastically, thrusting them into relationships that are not typical in any way. The events in each relationship cover some sensitive topics such as assault, teenage pregnancy and death. It takes guts and determination for these couples to adapt to their misfortunes, overcome the obstacles before them and make it through to the other side, especially during their formative but tumultuous high school years into university life.

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.
Sun Valley High is run by the Devils. It's not just their mascot, it's the crew of guy who are high school royalty. Wicked. Savage. Cruel. When they target someone no ones stands in their way. And the three young women who find themselves in the Devil's path are about to find that out.
This is a set of three books and these were some really good books too. I couldn't keep my nose out of them. This set includes Wicked Devil, Savage Devil, and Cruel Devil. If I review each book individually then this review is going to be super long and I am afraid I will say to much and cause a spoiler because believe me, I could gush and go on and on and on about these book. Each of these books is about a different couple and are filled with all the drama your little drama loving heart can handle. I loved all the guys and girls. I loved how they all paired up with each other so well. I loved the whole group vibe they have going on and I loved the twists and turns that are in these book. You don't even need to think about it. Just go and get the book and fall in love with the Devils of Sun Valley High just like I did.

Savage Devil
Emilio is an elite football player for his high school team who is used to getting any woman he wants but when he meets Bibiana at a party the sparks fly, and they spend a steamy evening together only to find her gone when morning arrives. When Bibiana attended the party she wanted that night to be her first time with a guy and then they would go their separate ways so she certainly never expected to become pregnant or that fate would bring them together 18 months later.
Bibiana and Emilio take us on quite the journey as they are both dealing with family drama as well as trying to do what is best for their son. Due to their pasts, they had a few challenges in the relationship between them but they were both wonderful parents as they became the family that they and their son deserved.
I have only had a chance to read Savage Devil so far but I am looking forward to reading the other stories in this collection.

This is one book set you will definitely want to pick up and one I enjoyed reading. Each character has their own background that made them unique in their own way with their own special chemistry between each couple.
WICKED DEVIL: A HS sports & bully romance between Allie and Roman. Allie has just moved to Sun Valley, home of the Devils, to live with her father, one she doesnt know. And ends up catching Roman's attention from day one.
SAVAGE DEVIL: A HS accidental pregnancy romance. Bibi decides to be rebellious for the first time in her life and has a one night stand.18 months later she back in SV with a special someone only to find out her one night stand is one of the popular Devils of SVH.
CRUEL DEVIL: A forbidden teammates sister romance between Dominique and Kasey. This one was the most angsty with their hate/hate relationship. Until something happens and Dom is the only one able to help her. This one ends in a cliffhanger.

This box set was everything!! I am super new to Daniela Romero so what better way to get acquainted with her work than to binge an entire box set? Wicked Devil is the story of Roman and Allie. Savage Devil is the story of Emilio and Bibiana. Cruel Devil is the first of a duet and it is the story of Dominique and Kasey. But I honestly cannot tell you which one is my favorite. All of the stories intertwine and I really enjoyed that because I loved alk of the characters and I didn't want to say goodbye to them. There is no real bullying between the guys and the FMCs. But lets say that the guys are A-holes but their girls are no wilting flowers. They dish it out. Their love stories are hard fought. Its a battle. And a good battle it is! I'm so looking forward to the next book in Dom and Kasey's story.

Boxsets can usually be hit or miss for me but I honestly loved this! It was so great to just continue each book after you finished one instead of having to go to KU or Amazon to borrow the next one. This set contained Wicked Devil (Standalone), Savage Devil (Standalone) and Cruel Devil (Book 1 of 2).
This was my first time reading a book by Daniela Romero but she has a way of writing that draws you in and keeps you there. These books are not necessarily "light and fluffy" they contain some seriously heavy topics that might be triggering for some. I don't have any triggers myself but a few of the parts made me emotional and were hard to read but I thought Daniela covered them beautifully. As well as you can cover heavy topics. But the guys are protective of their girls (once they get over the initial conflicts) and the spicy scenes are top notch. Loved this!

Awesome Series
This is a great series and having it in one package is the best, especially since it includes the bonus material and short stories.
Wicked Devil is about Roman and Allie. It tackles a lot of deep issues and tastefully written.
Savage Devil is about the baby Emilio and Bibi share. I like the story but found Bibi very annoying at times because she was too resistant to Emilio when he really was trying. I loved how it continued Allie’s story and wish we had a POV with Roman comforting her.
Cruel Devil was another good read as we jump into Kasey and Dom’s story. Can’t wait for the rest.
The scenes are steamy but wish there was more of them. I loved getting a glimpse of the PacSun crew and Bertie getting an HEA.
Looking forward to more stories in this world ❤️
