Publisher's summary

Sons pay for the sins of their fathers....

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 fallout. As Bodhi retreats, and Easton struggles, they fight hard to keep their family together.

Before history repeats itself and they suffer more devastating loss.

Amazing bonus post-HEA

So many feelings! What a beautiful tribute to the breathtaking duet, a meaningful look back and a powerful step forward. I fell in love with these characters all over again. Hold Me Close is tender, spicy, and emotionally rich- Siobhan sure can pack a novella with poignance and love.

Staying true to the tone and tenor of our origin duet, this novella has plenty of angst and heartache. Siobhan continues to explore the themes of choice and consequences, the destructive nature of secrets, and the messiness of love and family. But we also get to see how these characters have evolved - more settled and stable, more emotionally present for one another, more centered- because of the unconditional love they have for each other, the trust and unbreakable connection that blossomed after unthinkable adversity. So we certainly have challenge, but so much hope, and so so much love.

This novella is the perfect capturing of my nostalgic adoration of these characters while also being an authentic and meaningful step forward in their journey. Reconnection and a glimpse into the post HEA reality. I loved every minute with them- the perfect reminder that journey doesn’t stop once in love, that true love still has bumps and challenges post HEA, but it’s facing them together, in partnership, that’s the true romance.

Nice novella

Another emotional story! You can definitely feel the struggles that Easton and Bodhi dealt with. The strength to endure these obstacles as a family was wonderful to witness.

The narrators did another great job portraying these characters.

Hold Me Close

Hold Me Close is the third book in the All of Me series. This book is years after book two ends. However, you should read the first two books so you know the back story of what is going on in this book. Vivien and Dillion are all grown up and are raising Easton and Bodhi as well as their daughters. This book is told from multiple points of view from Vivien, Dillion, Easton, and Bodhi.

In this book Vivien and Dillion are just trying to do their best to raise their family, however, Easton and Bodhi see the movie that was the main point of the first two books. Bodhi takes this hard when he learns about his family, and what happened in the past.

Bodhi starts to cause problems, and it causes a rift between him and Easton. Easton has always loved Bodhi as a brother, but can some of the things Bodhi has done be forgiven? Can Bodhi and Easton be happy in their lives, or will the movie tear the whole family apart?

I loved every minute of this book and going back to see how Vivian and Dillion are doing in the future. Will Vivian and Dillion get their happy ending, with all of their kids?

emotional

This story is tragically well written with flawed characters,. Beautifully written.
What I love about Siobhan Davis is never expect a hea without twists turns, and agony . Bhodi and East watched their parents movie. Only for Bhodi to feel rejection, pitied, not being a part of a family. he turned to booze, drugs, and totally ignoring his family. East, always the protector, watched out for him until one day they fought it out.
It took a near death experience for Bhodi to realize how much family strengths he really needed.
Well done! One of my favorite series.
What really made this audio so wonderful is the talented cast of narrators.
Sarah Puckett, K.C. Sheridan, Logan Anare, Sam McGovern, Eric Logan narration is perfection. They bring depth to each character. they captured the personalities and voices of all the characters. They make you feel each moment of emotion, anguish, anger, torment, throughout the story. I wish I could give them more stars. their narration is so emotionally moving.Thank you for bringing this story to life.

Hold Me Close

This is book three in the All of Me duet. This book takes place several years after the end of Let Me Love You. This book reflects on Bohdi and Easton as they struggle with their feelings regarding the movie about Reeve and Vivian. I really enjoyed coming back. Eric Nolan, KC Sheridan, Logan Anare, and Sarah Puckett did a phenomenal job narrating in duet style narration.

The feels I didn’t know I needed

I absolutely loved this story and being able to hear these characters again for the final bow was everything I could have hoped for. Having the voice that originally did Reeve play his sons was an emotional ride I did not think would hit me so hard. Perfect addition to an already amazing audible family.

4.5 Stars

I love this series by Siobhan Davis. It's probably my favorite. This was a novella where we once again see agonizing heartbreak. It takes place seven-ish years after LET ME LOVE YOU. It was hard to see the family go through more. There is beautiful healing though. The ending came too quickly! I can't help wanting more and I hope we get more of them in the future. We especially need Easton and Bodhi's HEAs!!!

Eric Nolan, KC Sheridan, Logan Anare, and Sarah Puckett are excellent narrators. They brought this book to life with emotional performances that completely pulled me into the audiobook. Perfection!

So enjoyed diving back into this world!

Having listened to both Say I'm The One and Let Me Love You audiobooks I was so happy that we were getting more! As soon as I found out about Hold Me Close, I knew I had to listen to it. I started this audiobook as soon as I could and got right back into the All of Me world! I enjoyed this listen so very much!

I've listened to KC Sheridan, Logan Anare, and Sarah Puckett's narration before, but was new to Eric Nolan which made even more ecstatic to dive into this audio! I loved the way every single narrator drew me back into this world and how they all captured the characters struggles, pain, and emotions, and made me feel every bit of this listen!

Vivien and Dillon are back and now a family. As their sons Bodhi and Easton have to face many things, can Vivien and Dillon help their family through it all?

My heart hurt for these characters. There was such realness and depth to the emotions they all showed. I didn't know what all to expect and that had me even more invested in this listen. I felt it all with these characters and I so enjoyed that!

With Hold Me Close, Ms.Davis has created such a good addition to the All of Me world that brought out my emotions in so many ways! Eric, KC, Logan, and Sarah all got into my heart through their narration as well!

Whew! This story will tear your heart to pieces!!

Hold Me Close, an Audiobook by Siobhan Davis, is part three of the All of Me duet. This story was a bit out of left field. It takes place years after Reed and Vivian’s happily ever after….which turns out to be anything but! The focus is primarily on their teenage sons, Easton and Bodhi. The emotional traumas these two endure is devastating.

While the story is well-written and excellent…I was emotionally drained after listening to it. My heart ached for these two boys and how their parents were dragged through the mud causing untold misery to the boys. Very, very good story!!

This Audiobook was narrated by Eric Nolan, KC Sheridan, Logan Anare, and Sarah Puckett. Overall, very good performances by all narrators!!! They made this hugely emotional story even MORE emotional!

Great Story of Family and Love

The Tale of Bodhi and Easton and how their relationship as brothers are tested is a hard breaking one. Most brothers go through rough patches growing up but having famous parents and the way they were conceived and came to be a family is under fire. They will go through a lot after learning some hard truths about their parents. But can the love of Viv and Dillon and the huge family bring them through...we can only hope. I listened to the audio and it was wonderful especially with all the different vocals for each character especially when several chapters were different point of views from Dillon, Vivian, Bodhi and Easton.
