Another incredible book from Hank Phillippi Ryan that grabs the reader from page one until the end. The story involves a new best-selling author on a country wide book tour away from her family and thanks to an evil woman questioning her safety. Readers will embrace Tessa and her journey to face her past and look to her future. Here's to the next best seller

A word of advice-I know from personal experience you would do well to avoid reading Hank Philliopi Ryan's "All This Could Be Yours" while flying cross-country. It may cause you to squirm in your seat to the annoyance of your seat mate, eye every face with trepidation, watch your luggage, and give you NO ability to rest while trying to keep up with its heart pumping thrills!

If anyone can write about the positives (and possible negatives) while on a fabulous book tour, it would take a phenomenal author with vast experience and the best imagination to conjure propelling fiction ratcheting the stakes for any woman/wife/mother/sister (or man) who needs to make a change in her/his life while attempting to keep their darkest secrets hidden.

Well done indeed!

Thanks to @Netgalley, @minotaur, and super author @HankPhillippiRyan for the ARC. The comments are my own, and I had to cut myself off!

Just finished reading Hank Phillippi Ryan’s latest novel, All This Could Be Yours in which we meet Tessa Calloway, a new author on a book promotion tour with a bestselling book. When she begins to get questions about her past, Tessa becomes anxious, wondering who is asking and why? Having hidden a secret all her adult life, Tessa is concerned that someone knows about it and wants to expose her – or worse. As the questions continue, some odd things happen, and the pressure mounts, Tessa feels increasingly paranoid and concerned. But is it really paranoid when someone actually seems out to get you? All This Could Be Yours is absolutely spellbinding from beginning to end with fully developed characters who won’t soon be forgotten.

A master of writing thrillers, Hank Phillippi Ryan has once again written an involved, engaging, and unsettling story about a new author. Family conversations and other personal thoughts can't begin to prepare you for what's ahead for Tessa. This is a book that is difficult to put down, yet at times almost too intense to want to continue reading. It is also a book that will appeal to thousands, and for many different reasons. Time both rushes and stills in this highly dynamic story.

Many thanks to St. Martin's Press/Minotaur Books and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this latest novel from Ms. Ryan. Opinions expressed are voluntarily shared, and are my personal thoughts.

When I begin reading a book by an author I am familiar with, I don't want to know anything about it in advance. I simply want to let the story unfold naturally. And that sometimes means I am not exactly sure where the story is headed. Like real life. We learn there is an author who has written a fabulous book, one that has been life-changing for many of its readers. She is doing a cross-country book tour to meet fans and sell her books.

So many things happen that our author on tour sometimes doesn't know if she is losing her mind or if someone is deliberately targeting her. I can't say more than that but hang on and go along for the ride - it all makes sense in the end and loose ends are tied up nicely! You can thank me later!

A big thank you goes out to Minotaur Books and author Hank Phillippi Ryan for an advance copy!

Amazing as always!!! What can I say about “All This Could be Yours”? An author on a whirlwind countrywide book tour for her New York Times bestselling book “finds” a locket in the bedside drawer in her hotel room in one of the first tour cities and rather than leave it with hotel lost and found, she posts it on her social media with the #LocketMom, takes it with her and it sets off a massive cross-country chase because someone in every city asks about it. There are other things that also happen that are strange. I don’t want to spoil the thrill of anyone reading the book for themselves so I will leave it at that. Highly recommend this book!!!

Thank you so much to the author, Hank Philippi Ryan, for the opportunity to be a super reader and be able to read an advance copy of this book! It’s amazing as all of your books are!

Review of Uncorrected Digital Galley

When Tessa Calloway walked away from her job as a corporate trainer, she had no plan for what would come next. Three years later, she had the answer.

Tessa Calloway created the fictional Annabelle Bown and wrote a runaway bestseller. She’s on a book tour for her massively successful debut book, with devoted fans hanging on her every word at each bookstore stop.

But.

The strange appearance of a locket in her hotel room. The innocent [or are they?] questions about her hometown, her childhood, her family. Disappearing “fans.”

Who is trying to destroy Tessa’s new-found success? And why?

=========

A captivating premise, interesting, well-developed characters, and a true-to-life authenticity all work together to pull readers into the telling of this enthralling tale and to keep those pages turning as fast as possible. A twisty plot with unexpected revelations keeps the tension building; the unfolding story grips readers with its suspense.

A sense of apprehension permeates each page of this compelling tale, keeping readers guessing as the story races toward a denouement they simply won’t see coming. This unputdownable tale of intrigue belongs on everyone’s must-read list. Don’t miss it.

Highly recommended.

I received a free copy of this eBook from St. Martin’s Press / Minotaur Books and NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving this review.

This was a pretty good read thank you for this early copy I will recommend for those that will be looking for something like this

Wow! What a ride! This fast-paced thriller should be used in fiction writing programs to teach writers how to keep tension on every page. I immediately connected with the main character who was likeable yet flawed. And the plot had so many twists and turns, I had no idea how the story was going to end. This is the best book I’ve read in a long time.

Desperate to find out who’s stalking her on her multi-city book tour, with the seeming intention of ruining her personally and professionally, the protagonist of All This Could be Yours must simultaneously navigate timely, complex challenges: how far will she go to protect her children from her own past mistakes? How should she deal with concerns that her husband is making questionable decisions while she’s away? What is the price of grooming and maintaining countless adoring fans on social media, when “her entire existence, her family’s complete livelihood, depended on what people thought of her”? As Tessa Calloway anguishes over these choices, she's unable to take a soul into her confidence– and she must do so without missing a beat, a fan’s question, or the flight to the next city on her book tour. As the stakes rise, Ryan describes the character’s increasing panic with such convincing internality that I wondered at times whether the woman was being gaslit (and if so, why and by whom?) or if she would turn out to be an unreliable narrator, a la Girl on the Train. I felt there was something almost Stephen King-like about the rabbit holes of terror and self-doubt a character can go down when obsessing over a tightly held secret; thankfully, getting to the answers was a fun and compelling ride.

All This Could Be Yours also answers a skeptic’s question about the plot: how could a protagonist, whose debut novel becomes such a dazzling success, sound like such a pro as she deftly navigates the overwhelming fame that comes with it? To respond humbly to an adoring fanbase with consistent grace and gratitude? Ryan writes about this convincingly, no doubt tapping her experiences in real life: both in her storied career as a veteran television journalist, and as a prolific writer of award-winning thrillers. There’s an authenticity here that comes from lived experience.

If you’ve never read Ryan before, All This Can Be Yours, is a great way to start. If you’re already a fan, enjoy!

Hank Phillippi Ryan writes the perfect book and I challenge each of you to pick up yourself a copy of this book and find a nice quiet place to read and get lost in this book. Thank you so very much for writing us this fantastic book.i

ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD

Author Hank Phillippi Ryan has written an exceptionally wonderful cat-and-mouse thriller that will keep you turning the pages way into the night because of the compelling plot that she presents to readers. Ryan allows us to enter the life of Tessa Calloway, a debut author who became an overnight bestseller. Tessa is now on a three-week whirlwind Book Tour to promote her book, All This Could Be Yours. All of Tessa’s dreams are coming true for her professionally, and have allowed her family to move into a fabulous, larger dream home.

As Tessa begins her Book Tour, some disconcerting things make her question herself and her past. Someone is stalking her, but she knows no one will believe her. Someone is harassing her, but again, no one will believe her because it is an outlandish story. Someone is baiting her, but she can’t prove it. What’s next? Generational sin? Blackmail? And, what on earth is going on with her family? Who are all of these mysterious new women in her family’s lives? Why does this Book Tour seem to last three years instead of three weeks? Tessa is quickly discovering “all that glitters is not gold.” Fame and fortune are not worth losing your sanity, freedom, or family.

Readers think they have solved the mystery of who is after Tessa and why, but they will be WRONG! Ryan completes this book with the grandest twist, and no one will ever see it coming! Bravo, Hank Phillippi Ryan, on another exceptionally well-written book!

St. Martin’s Press/Minotaur Books and NetGalley provided me with a copy of this book. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own, and without influence.

This book was full of scary moments. I loved the ending. I won't give it away here, though. Tessa is a kick ass heroine and I enjoyed the book so much. Thanks to Hank Phillippi Ryan for allowing me to read an ARC of it. It had all the thrills and scary moments needed to make you keep turning the page. One of the best thrillers I've read in a long time. Hank Phillippi Ryan ranks up there with Nora Roberts and Allison Brennan in my bookshelves. I loved this book.

I love love love Hank P Ryan books! This one was so twisty it was giving me serious whiplash! It's definitely going to make all the lists this fall and this bookworm will be recommending to everyone!

This was quite an interesting read! It’s about an author dealing with a stalker. I was drawn in after the first chapter and it kept me on my toes. Definitely didn’t see some of the twists coming. Will definitely be recommending this one

We don’t always recognize the pivotal moments in our lives as they are unfolding. But sometimes they explode into vivid, living color later, stalking us and our grown-up successes in ways we never could have imagined.

Hank Phillippi Ryan masterfully states and employs this truth in her latest book “All This Could be Yours”, about a rising author and social media star who is on a tightly scheduled book tour. Her fans are mostly touchingly adoring both in person and online — but Tessa Caldwell has at least one follower who is more stalker than supporter. Who could it be? There are several options — we must journey with Tessa to find out! And, to uncover the early life experiences that continue to haunt her so many years later.

A total page-turner you won’t want to miss!

This book is filled with very interesting characters and a storyline that keeps you guessing. So many twists and turns. A definite page turner. Some times it gets your heart racing and other times I had tears in my eyes. Absolutely loved it.

HPR wrote a great cat-and-mouse mystery. I really enjoyed this book! I go to a lot of author signings, so this really hit home for me. Now I wonder what the authors I see go through while they’re on tour. I never realized it could be so dangerous! I also loved how much the process of writing can be healing was really featured in this.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.

Holy hoodwinking, Batman, this book is bananas!! I only put it down because I absolutely had to do dishes, bathe, take care of my kids, etc, but seriously, it was soooo unputdownable!

This story asks some scary "what if" questions and follows them to their conclusions. Through the perspective of best-selling debut author on tour, Tessa, we experience her paranoia, fear, guilt, and excitement.

Tessa is on a book tour while her husband is home with the kids settling into their fancy new house. I could help but think of how disconcerting it may be for my own husband when he's away for work and I move all the furniture around LOLOL!

Though I've seen this word thrown around for thrillers, I don't think I've ever used it before myself: this book is PROPULSIVE. It's nonstop drama, twisty, and will have you totally freaked about hotels and social media!

Big thanks to NetGalley, Minotaur Books, and Hank Phillippi Ryan herself for a digital arc to and review! Can't wait for the real thing in my hands!

ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS by HANK PHILLIPPI RYAN

Who needs sleep? Not an author on tour, apparently, and not me once I started this twisty, surprising book. Just when I thought I’d figured it out, another twist. I love Tessa, and her character Annabelle, and their creator, Hank Phillippi Ryan. I recognized some of the writer advice from blog posts, like deciding what a character wants. Tessa wanted the life of a best-selling author, but has she sacrificed her family to get it? I have a new respect for authors from this peek at the “road warrior” life.
The metaphor of spinning plates is one I used myself to describe teaching life, so much to keep track of, always a chance of dropping one. Tessa had a demanding tour, even before other challenges and threats were added, like . . . oh, but that would be telling. Trust me, you want to read it yourself as problems and backstories pile higher and the stakes increase. There are good life lessons, humorous and tender moments, and . . . don’t want to spoil suspense, but you’ll not be sorry, except for that moment when you’ve finished and don’t want to leave the book. Fasten your seatbelt, put the tray table up, ready . . .

Coming Sept. 9. Hank has “a few” other books you could enjoy while you wait.
