Wow, Wow, Wow! What an interesting and riveting, fast-paced thriller! This story was told so amazingly well - I felt like I was traveling and watching it all with Tessa. All of the twists that came full circle were so unexpected! I cannot give enough adjectives for how wonderful this book was - I didn't want it to end! Highly, highly recommend!

Being an author is glamorous, right? Travelling city to city for book events, staying in hotels, and being applauded at every event. Tessa Calloway walked away from her corporate job, posting her departure online. She writes a book that is an overnight success. The book tour begins, and Tessa leaves her husband and two children home to meet and greet her fans. While on tour, Tessa documents every step on her socials. After all, her fans want to see her life. What Tessa comes to realize is that becoming popular has a price. Maintaining your privacy is difficult, fans can be super-sleuths. After several odd incidents on the road, Tessa wonders if she has a stalker. Why would she be a target for anyone?

This book is like a peek behind the scenes of a successful book tour. Only someone who has been on a book tour could provide the details we are privy to in Tessa's tour. Ryan perfectly describes the doubts and worries felt by a traveling mom. Doubts and fears can sink any relationship, and the Calloways struggle with their emotions and physical distance. The mystery of whether Tessa is being stalked heightens the stress of the book tour. With the turn of each page, you become more and more invested in Tessa and her story. This is one of those books that you will need a minute to recuperate from. Mystery, suspense, and psychological trickery combine to elevate this book to one of the premier books for late summer! Grab a copy of this book, I highly recommend it!

Hank Phillippi Ryan delivers another absorbing psychological thriller with All This Could Be Yours. Hank herself knows all about book tours, but I'm hoping the one described in this book isn't based on her own experience.

On a tour to promote her uber-popular debut bestseller, Tessa is trying to juggle her hordes of devoted fans, her publishing team, and her demanding schedule with what's going on at home. Her unemployed husband is in charge of their two children after they just moved to a larger home, thanks to Tessa's success, but is he doing a good job, and who are those new neighbors who seem abnormally nosy? Tessa also worries that some nasty secrets that hearken back to her childhood might come back to haunt her when a few of the people she meets on the tour seem to know more about her than they should.

The author is a master at ratcheting up the suspense and maintaining a relentless tone of impending doom, to the point where it is almost unbearable, which is why her books are so popular. I'm sure this one will join her others as a bestseller.

My sincere thanks to Hank Phillippi Ryan and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and provide an honest review of this book.

Somehow, this is my first Hank Phillippi Ryan book.... but it won't be my last!

Tessa Calloway is a debut author whose novel is an instant bestseller with a cult like following. She kind of went viral when she filmed herself quitting her job and walking out... to pursue her dream, which is now soaring. But as she's in the midst of being on book tour, things are not perfect. She misses her family. And she's starting to realize she's not on book tour alone... someone is stalking her. Someone, who knows what she did in her past. This is a tight mystery with a strong emotional impact; I wasn't able to put it down!

As I sit here speechless, I was brought to tears in the final words of Author Hank Phillippi Ryan’s new thriller “All This Could Be Yours”.

A page-turner from the beginning! The necklace, Sam’s postcard, the stolen suitcase, the earrings and destroyed chocolates kept me on the edge of my seat wondering “what next”!

A best-selling author on tour with a family at home, shadows, noises and assumptions tore at my core!

It will touch your soul in heartfelt ways! A mother, a best friend, a secret… and the truths of what “All This Could Be Yours” really means.

Thrilling twists in this evocative, suspenseful novel I so highly recommend! I loved it!
COMING September 9, 2025, Mark your Calendars!

This is my favorite Hank Phillippi Ryan book since her early days writing reporter-mysteries. "All This Can Be Yours" is as fast-paced as a cross-country book tour. Every day, protagonist Tessa Calloway travels to a new city to meet fans and promote her bestselling novel called, in a moment of meta, "All This Can Be Yours."

I enjoyed the glimpse into the whirlwind world of a bestselling author. She's meeting readers, making a difference in their lives, and with her first book a sensation, she's poised on the brink of a glamorous new career. A couple of weeks in, though, Tessa begins to experience unusual occurrences - items left in her hotel room, a lost-and-found suitcase, audience members demanding answers to strangely personal questions. She begins to think it all revolves around a Bad Thing that happened when she was a little girl, something that only one other living soul knows about.

I warn you, this novel is next to impossible to put down. Every chapter leaves you wanting to know what happens next. If Tessa perhaps misses an obvious question to ask, like 'do you have security cameras in the hallway that would show who went into my room' - blame it on she's exhausted and frazzled and late for her flight to the next book signing.

Ryan uses 21st century technology to both connect Tessa to her family and raise doubts about their safety and security. We see her increasingly frustrated by feeling left out of her husband's and children's lives, as they settle into a new house and meet mysterious new neighbors.

Strange incidents keep escalating until finally Tessa finds her reputation at risk, her publishing future threatened, and her life possibly in very real danger.

If you enjoy mysteries and behind-the-scenes books about the writing life, I recommend "All This Can Be Yours."

I received an advance reader copy of this novel; all thought and opinions expressed here are my own.

All This Could Be Yours was a real page turner. I couldn't put it down as the story followed Tessa on her book tour while strange? scary? creepy? things keep happening that can't possibly all be a coincidence. Why are these things happening? Who is doing them? Keep turning those pages as you try to guess along with Tessa.

Tessa Calloway has made her dreams come true of being published author and going on book tour. Once on tour strange things starts to happen to try and sabotage her career. Meanwhile back home her husband is trying to settling into new house and get the kids into routine. This book tugs on your heart as a Tessa struggles to balance being a mother and having a career and providing for her family. She can't sleep and gets more and more on edge the longer she is gone. Tessa things this all leads back to the terrible thing she did as a child.

Hank is great with building the tension and making you second guess every person on their motives.

Warning: Apply a polish formula containing Bitrex before reading this book.

It's an utter nail-biter that takes readers on a debut novelist's six-week tour to promote her book, <i>All This Could Be Yours</i>.

Metafiction at its very best.

The suspense builds as nerve-racking events multiply, both on the road and at home where the author's husband and tweens are settling into a new house.

This pulse-pounding, twisty, and heartfelt story is my new favorite by Hank Phillippi Ryan and one that fellow book lovers will be wild about!

Thank you to HPR and Minotaur Books for the advance reader copy.

Who would have ever dreamed a Book Tour could be so volatile? ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS is a fast-paced thriller that has all the twists and turns one would expect from Hank Phillippi Ryan. It has an intriguing plot that will have you questioning every character and turning pages as fast as you can. I loved this book – it captured me from the first word to the last!

Thank you Netgalley and St Martins Press for the ARC of this book.

Debut sensation Tessa Calloway is on a whirlwind book tour for her instant bestseller, All This Could Be Yours. In a different city every night, Tessa receives standing ovations from adoring fans while her husband Henry and their two children cheer her on from their brand-new dream house.

But there's a chilling problem with Tessa's triumphant book tour—she soon discovers she is being stalked by someone who's obsessed not only with sabotaging her career, but also with destroying her perfect family back home.

Tessa fears the fallout from an impossible decision she once made—what felt like a genuine deal with the devil—appears to be coming due. And she’s realizing that every high-stakes bargain comes with a high-stakes price. If Tessa can't untangle who's threatening to expose her darkest secrets, she'll lose her career, her family—and possibly her life.

I just could not keep interested in this book. I suppose it's because for some reason I did jot like the main character. This just wasn't a book for me. 2.5 out of 5 ⭐️

Tessa, and her adorable family were characters that I’d love to have in my life!! Fans of thrillers will really enjoy this one! Another huge hit by Hank Phillippi Ryan!!!

Do you think a bestselling author’s life is easy? Safe? What is it like on the road? All those booksignings? Only Hank could make such a life sound so suspenseful. And there are writing tips, too. Great read

This is an intriguing psychological suspense about secrets of the past coming back to haunt you.
It becomes unsettling as Tessa and the reader don't know what's real and what's part of the stalker's game. I really questioned Tessa and even didn't like her at times, just as the story was meant to do. There was something that didn't quite add up for me and I had to have one of those "suspend disbelief" moments.
The story unfolds more slowly as there are lots of layers to expose the endgame. The reveal was unexpected and the conclusion satisfying.

All this Could Be Yours is a phenomenal thrill ride that grabs your attention and keeps you glued to the pages from beginning to end. I devoured this book, could not stop reading, and had to see how everything played out. Hank Phillippi Ryan is beyond talented, and knows how to tell an awesome story that keeps you engrossed. Her words and stories are so moving and powerful like no one else. Tessa, the main character who is a best selling author, has demons from her past that she hopes will never come out. She loves her husband and children more than anything, and will do everything in her power to keep them safe. While Tessa is on book tours in different cities across the U.S., strange events keep happening that she cannot just chalk up to mere coincidences. Tessa has to try and figure out who is behind all of this, and why. I absolutely loved this book, and I rank it as one of the best books I have ever read. I highly recommend this book, and every book I have ever read by Hank Phillippi Ryan is beyond amazing.

this is a sharp, twisty thriller that blends the glitz of a blockbuster book tour with the creeping dread of a stalker bent on revenge. Tessa’s rise to fame feels both exhilarating and ominous, and as her past catches up with her, the tension never lets up. A clever and compulsively readable story about success, secrets, and how quickly it can all unravel.
