All Over You: A Devoured Novella

By Emily Snow

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Emily Snow: Before Sienna was devoured, before Lucas was consumed, they were all over each other …

Rock star Lucas Wolfe is used to getting his way, and when he meets the wardrobe assistant hired for his band’s newest video shoot, he wants her: preferably stripped down and bound to his bed. From the moment Sienna Jensen first obediently whispers “Yes, Mr. Wolfe,” he knows she’s perfect for him.

Now, he has three days to convince her … but he doesn’t plan on taking no for an answer.

Set two years before the events of Devoured, the novella All Over You tells the dark, sexy story of Sienna and Lucas’s first encounter.

About the Author

Chapter One

Lucas

You’re leaving? a hoarse, feminine voice demands, breaking the silence in the dark hotel room. Every muscle in my back goes stiff, and I pause where I’m standing a few feet away from the bed and the naked woman lying in it. A moment passes before I give her a curt nod. Yanking my black tee shirt over my head, I sit down on the edge of the hotel mattress and shove my feet into the motorcycle boots she’d taken off me earlier on my order.

Got a shoot in the morning, I tell her, my voice bored. But even if my band wasn’t doing a music video this week, I wouldn’t stay with her. After we were done, and she’d closed her eyes, falling asleep, I’d come up with a plan. Unravel those hands from the hotel bed posts and sneak out unnoticed. Now that she was alert again and staring right at me, that strategy was blown to shit.

The woman sighs as she nudges her knee back and forth across my lower back in an attempt to get me to look at her. I don’t. That’s too bad, Mr. Wolfe. I thought we could go for round three, she says suggestively.

The mattress squeaks, and I know she’s grinding her hips into it. I let her do this for another ninety seconds before I turn around, slowly. She’s kicked the rumpled sheets away from her petite body, and her legs are spread apart, inviting me in. Arching her back upwards, she strains against the satin binds, biting her bottom lip and moaning softly.

Cocking my head to the side, I quirk the corner of my mouth. Not tonight.

Why not? she asks, her voice taking on a pout. The sensuality doesn’t extend to her dark eyes. They’re giant and desperate and only make me more intent to leave this hotel room and take my ass back home where nobody would question me. 

Look, Megan—

She gasps, just like I expect her to. Mara, she corrects me. My name is Mara.

I know that—I don’t forget names of the women I tie up—but I give her a sardonic look. Narrow my hazel eyes into thin slits. "Mara, I don’t do overnights." 

Or relationships because my ex-wife would rip anyone I tried to be with to pieces.

Mara turns her head, and her inky black hair falls around her flushed face and the piles of pillows bunched up beneath her head. She focuses her gaze on something across the room, and I follow it to a trio of oil paintings hanging several inches over the flat screen TV.  I hear her breathing heavily, deep drags in and out of her pierced nose. There’s this part of me that wants to feel a pull toward her. That wants to turn back around and crawl back in bed and completely own this woman, even if there’s that risk of Sam going apeshit.

Instead, when I turn my eyes back to Mara, I reach for her wrists, skimming her palms with the pads of my fingers as I loosen the fabric and pull it over her hands. Her skin is still slick, and when she rolls to her side to turn completely away from me, the strap prints on her ass—just below her back dimples—are vivid, despite the dim lighting. 

I watch her sides expand as she breathes, the way the flowery tattoo that completely covers it moves up and down. You won’t call me again, huh? Mara asks.

Normally, I don’t explain. There’s no reason to when we both know the answer—Mara’s a groupie and I’d been clear about what she was to me at the beginning of the evening, as I blindfolded her. But for some reason, I say, No. I trace my fingertips across her hips. She shivers, a tiny gasp coming from her throat, and I add, I’ve got no plans to ever call you again.

She nods. Didn’t think so. Thank you . . . Lucas.

I leave the room—a room that I’ve been to more times than I can count—wearing a bored look. In the elevator, a tall blonde looks up from the man she’s groping to give me a long, hard onceover. Her green eyes go wide as she mouths my name, and my lips twitch, but I say nothing. When I exit out the back, to where my car is waiting in its usual spot, the night guard inclines his head, giving me a polite and goddamn knowing smile.

Have a wonderful evening, Mr. Wolfe.

Yeah, real wonderful.

Is this supposed to be a book?

[Hayley Woo Jia Yi · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Short and left me wanting to read more

[debbie97462 · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This was a very good book. I look forward to the next one.

[lisa.hines · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

I kinda wish I had read this first but then I'm also kinda glad I didn't.I liked not knowing anything about Lucas until Sienna discovered it too, such as the ex and the drama, etc. But hearing more about Kylie and Wyatt was kinda cool too. But that just means I have to now read Savor You as soon as possible. I'm excited for book two to come out in this devoured series.

All Over You is a short novella that introduces you to Lucas Wolfe and Sienna Jensen, telling you how they met, and covers the events that transpired two years prior to the novel Devoured. It doesn't take very long to read, but I am so very glad that I was able to read this before I read Devoured. It isn't necessary to read this first, but in my opinion, it gives you so much better understanding as to why things occur the way they do in Devoured and the history behind Sienna and Lucas' relationship, enabling you to connect with the characters and their story in a much deeper way. It is hot and steamy. I loved getting to know Sienna. Lucas Wolfe is revealed in all his hotness, dominance, and yes, despite all this, he can be quite a jerk, though you do get some understanding about what has made him the way he is. All Over You is a great novella and if you haven't read Devoured, I would definitely recommend reading this first. If you have read Devoured, but haven't read All Over You, I think it would really be beneficial to go back and read it, as it provides so many answers to some things that transpire in Devoured that you otherwise wouldn't know. Quotes:“I need to devour you."Those words manage to knock the air right back out of my lungs, and my head spinsas one of his hands skims around my body. He splays it across the small of my back, pulling me closer to him, and leaning over until his lips are a centimeter from my collarbone."Sienna?" he growls, and I murmur to acknowledge him. "I'm going to taste you."He wasn't asking me, he was flat out telling me what was going to happen between us, and yet I felt myself nod, felt my body mold against his the moment his warm lips sought out the center of my throat."You smell like apples." he wispers harshly before his tongue darts out to trace the column of my thorat. I moan, letting my head fall all the way back."And you taste like the best kind of sin.”

If I have to be completely honest, I liked this so-called book a little bit better than its predecessor Devoured. Unfortunately, since the characters are the same and still as immature as in Devoured, I can't actually give it more than 2/5 stars. This could be a fun read for people who are into such books AND are not fed up with the whole first-sight-can't-take-my-eyes-off-of-you-I-wanna-eat-you-up cliché.
