Hold Me Close (All of Me) Paperback – June 25, 2022
Purchase options and add-ons
Bodhi and Easton Lancaster O’Donoghue have grown up sheltered from the truth. Until it’s time for their parents to reveal what happened and how it shaped the events that came later.
Bodhi is quiet. An intelligent, introspective boy who hides his pain deep inside. Shattered by the harsh reality of the past, he spirals into a dark place where no one can reach him.
Easton loves his brother fiercely and has always been there for him. Despite his own grief and confusion, he tries his best to support Bodhi—even if he seems determined to push everyone away.
Vivien and Dillon knew this moment would come. Yet nothing prepared them for the massive fall-out. As Bodhi retreats, and Easton struggles, they fight hard to keep their family together.
Before history repeats itself and they suffer more devastating loss.
This 37k-word epilogue novella cannot be read as a stand-alone and must only be read after Let Me Love You. Contains POV chapters from Viv, Dillon, Easton and Bodhi.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 5, 2025I loved this entire series so much. I was surprised that the 3rd book is following the boys and I honestly wasn’t sure I wanted to start a new storyline (that was before I saw that this is more of a novella that just ties it up). I glad I gave it a shot anyways because I truly feel like this was the perfect way to end tie it all up. I had been wondering how the boys would feel, I know from my own life that having family drama like that can feel like it rips thru your whole world when you are that age and I feel like the author truly shined a light on how quickly it feels like the end of the world to teens. Surprisingly, towards the end I felt more like I wanted more from the boys (hello spine off seriiiiessss) but even without extra, this was so well done and it’s hard to hate any character in this series (well maybe a few minor characters 🤣).
- Reviewed in the United States on November 17, 2022I like that the author added this little short book to the serie but honestly, it was not needed. But glad it was short enough to finish in a day. And it does say in the beginning to have tissues available cause its going to be a teary one but I didnt cry. Lolz not like I did in book 2 when reeve died. Even though he was not a favorite character. I am so glad Viv n Dillon ended up together. I always knew they would. But with all that plot twist, like damn. I also don't need to know reeves pov of his life like during his filming and time away from Viv or when Viv was Ireland so I'm not sure if ill read them or the stand alone of the boys future. I think I'll just end this serie here. It was a nice happy ending of book 2 already so honestly book 3 wasn't necessary. But by all means if u want to read into it, go for it. Its short so why not. But be warned, it's not necessary to read after book 2.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2022Oh my heart y’all!! I’m so all up in my feelings about this one. 🥰🥺😭🥰 Hold Me Close is a beautifully poignant and emotionally gripping novella set in the All of Me world. This novella is the third in this world and while it takes place seven years after the end of the duet, it needs to be read after Say I'm The One ( book 1) and Let Me Love You (book 3).
We are now in the thick of life with Viv and Dillon and their children, Bodhi, Easton, Fleur, and Melody. Life has become a whirlwind of epic emotional turbulence after events from the past have come to light. The emotional fallout is affecting everyone, especially Easton and Bodhi and they are really struggling badly. Viv and Dillon are doing everything they can to be there for their kids and hold their family together using all the love and strength that they have. They would do anything for the kids they love more than anything. But is that enough?
What I love about a Siobhan Davis story is her ability to suck you into her story with her amazing character development. You feel so deeply for these characters you forget that you aren’t a part of the story with them. I was emotionally put through the ringer with this before I was put back together. I’m just so drawn to these characters and their individual journeys as well as them together. I loved getting to see this through the eyes of the multiple POV’s. I just can’t say enough. I may not have known it but I sure needed this novella.
It’s just further proof of why this author is one of my favorite one-click authors. ⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨⭐️✨
- Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2025I always thought the movie was a bad decision by Viv. She should have thought of future consequences regarding the boys’ feelings and their perceptions of Reeve. Viv reaped what she sowed.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2025I loved getting to see how Easton and Bohdi turned out. This was a great way to wrap up a series and tie up loose ends. I think Viv and Dil did a great job and I loved seeing the young men East and Bo grew into. I also loved seeing more of Ash,Jamie,Audrey,and Alex. Just a short sweet novella overall.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2022Ok I will start out by saying yay-I’ve always been team Dillon- but did
I miss something? What happened between book two end and book three beginning? I get that there are references that fill in some major details but what????? I rated this an4 rather than five because I feel cheated out of what all happened. This is one of my very favorites series and I need to know what happened between Dillon showing up to Viv and Reeves with twin bomb. What happened to Reeve and who is Lainey? I must have missed something, someone please help me!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2025I've enjoyed every bit of this story! I'm adding this series to my favorites! This one really had me balling, so make sure you have tissues. I will definitely be adding more of Siobhan Davis's stories to my TBR!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2022For a novella, Hold Me Close packed a powerfully emotive punch. Be prepared to fall even deeper in love with this world and all the amazing people in it. There’s a multi POV from Vivien, Dillion, Easton and Bodhi so everything hits tenfold. There was so much that unraveled during this read and at times I worried about the fallout and how everyone would bounce back. If you know Siobhan Davis, you know there’s no holds barred with her and her writing. There were times I just sat clutching my chest in shock and hurt for what these characters went through. The angst and heartbreak were intensely raw and palpable. There was also sweet moments that were truly heartwarming.
Above it all was the love this family had for each other, that truly unconditional love that conquers all and even has the ability to save a life. Siobhan Davis is a true maestro when it comes to expertly delivering you one epically addictive angsty story that will tear at every single one of your heartstrings.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great little read
This is a wonderful follow up to the All Of Me duet. I loved reading about how the kids have grown and see how the past affects them all. I really felt for Bodhi and Easton. I hope we get their stories down the track!

5.0 out of 5 stars BEAUTIFUL WORDS.
𝑯𝒐𝒍𝒅 𝑴𝒆 𝑪𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆
This is an epilogue novella set in the 𝑨𝒍𝒍 𝒐𝒇 𝑴𝒆 world and a must read.
This is a novella in the All of Me Series and this series must be read in order to be able to follow the awesome story line.
#1- Say I'm The One
#2- Let Me Love You.
This will captivate you until the very end. This book is 7 years in the future and we get to see Viv and Dill 's children and all the emotional turmoil that is happening to this family. The question is will love alone be enough?
Bodhi and Easton have been through so much and after finding out certain things that have devastated them it's hard to find their way back from it all. The parents are going to try there damned hardest to keep this family together no matter what.
This series is one of the best that I have ever read and the world and the characters that this author has written are so real, so beautiful and you as the reader will love them and feel it all with them too. This is an emotional journey that will have your heart aching. I love how this author writes her characters and how they pull us in and leave us feeling everything they did. I loved This story line and it's a perfect novella after a perfect duet. This is why I always one click this author because her words are absolutely amazing. I highly recommend everyone reads this series it's amazing and you won't be disappointed.
- Jonathan PickeringReviewed in Canada on February 5, 2023
4.0 out of 5 stars heartwarming to the max
I loved reading this little story that brings us back to this amazing couple and their family.
Reading about Bodhi and Eastons struggles really made my heart hurt for them. I knew that movie they made in the original series would come back to cause damage and it was sad to read about how the kids struggled with it.
But it was so heartwarming to see how Viv and Dillon supported and loved their kids through it.
This was such a nice read and glimpse back into this crazy world Siobhan created 🖤
- Amazon CustomerReviewed in Australia on July 19, 2023
4.0 out of 5 stars All 3 books were good but so much was missing
Would love to read separate books with Reeve, Easton & Bodhi’s story’s, especially Reeve & Eastons side of it as so much is missing from there point & why they did what they did
