This was a very unusual book. It follows Tessa, a best selling author on her book tour around the USA. You get to see her answer questions in different stores. Meanwhile she is being stalked by a person from her past. Lots of phone interactions with her kids which was cute. The ending was very satisfying.

I'm a longtime fan of Hank Phillippi Ryan, and once again, she absolutely delivers with All This Could Be Yours. From the very first chapter, I was hooked—not because it starts with a bang, but because it simmers with that quiet, creeping tension that only a seasoned master of suspense can pull off. This book is the definition of a slow-burn thriller that rewards patience with jaw-dropping payoff. The premise alone—an author on a glamorous national book tour suddenly realizing someone from her past is watching her, waiting to strike—is already chilling, but the execution? Flawless.

We follow Tessa Calloway, a breakout debut novelist who should be living her dream: packed book events, sold-out crowds, adoring readers. But beneath the surface of all that success is a woman desperately trying to hold her picture-perfect life together while it slowly begins to unravel. Tessa's past, which she’s worked so hard to bury, starts clawing its way back in the most terrifying ways. Notes. Questions. A stalker who seems to know everything. And the worst part? She has no idea who it is—or how far they’re willing to go.

What really impressed me is how seamlessly Ryan blends psychological depth with a classic suspense plot. The emotional stakes are as high as the physical danger, and you can feel Tessa’s fear, guilt, and desperation on every page. There’s also something deeply compelling about watching her grapple with the choices that led her here—choices she believed were behind her, but that now threaten not just her career, but her family, and her life.

I also have to say—my thriller radar is usually pretty sharp, but Hank totally fooled me this time. I had several theories about who the stalker might be, and I was wrong on all counts. That twist hit hard in the best possible way. The misdirection was smart, subtle, and earned. I love when a writer stays steps ahead of me, and Ryan clearly knows the game better than most.

If you enjoy stories where ambition, fame, and secrecy collide in unpredictable, pulse-pounding ways, All This Could Be Yours will not disappoint. It’s an expertly layered mystery that asks how far you’ll go to protect the life you've built—and what happens when the past won’t stay buried.

Thank you so much to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press / Minotaur Books for the digital reviewer copy of this unputdownable thriller in exchange for my honest thoughts. I’m so grateful for the opportunity—and I can’t wait to see what Hank Phillippi Ryan writes next!

Full of edge of your seat suspense. A great story about a bestselling author be stalked by her past.

Thank you so much for this ARC!

What a fun ride! I absolutely loved getting an inside look at what it is like as a published author on tour. That was so exciting. Also, interesting to see how an author with a family could possibly struggle with missing the day to day with their loved ones.

The mystery was intriguing and I enjoyed guessing what could be the reason behind the crazed fans and locket mom. I was totally wrong about the ending. I will say, this book read more of a mystery to me than a "thriller" and wasn't quite as dark as Ryan's usual books. Still a great read! Can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

Fans of JT Ellison's A Very Bad Thing will devour this one! :)

“Someone was fast, and someone was deliberate. Someone had targeted her. Someone had found her. Someone was letting her know that they had control of her belongings. And her life.”

Hank Phillippi Ryan’s latest novel is marketed as a ‘twisty cat and mouse thriller’ and had me desperately turning pages to see how an innocent bookshop signing could lead to such unease, escalating threats and danger. As I got further into the book, I realized that Tessa had made a life-changing bargain and was now dealing with the aftermath. As long buried secrets were unearthed, my pulse quickened and I couldn’t set the book down.

Ryan had me thinking about all the innocent situations in one’s daily life that can be skewed to be seen as sinister if put under a different light. Her spotlight on parasocial relationships was intriguing.

This was my first by this author and I’ve placed her on my watch list!

I was gifted this copy by the publisher through NetGalley and was under no obligation to provide a review.

Tessa is on her first book tour. Missing her family, but excited to meet so many fans. Until strange things start to happen. It seems that someone is following Tessa. Perhaps an overzealous fan? Or maybe it has to do with a secret she has hidden for many years.
I do not have the talent to ever contemplate writing a book. Still, I love hearing about/reading what it is like to be a published author. Especially book tours. Traveling to a different city and bookstore every day. Delayed flights. Bad food. Too little sleep. Oh, and questions from the audience that may be more personal than any author wants to share (especially if you’ve been keeping secrets for many years). But of course, it is the joy of meeting people who love your writing that makes it all worthwhile (and selling books).
That secret that I mentioned Tessa was hiding, may cost her her career, her family, and her life. I had a theory regarding who was stalking Tessa. I’ll admit, I was absolutely wrong.
It was an enjoyable read with short chapters and earns my reading while on my treadmill, seal of approval.

A thriller that crackles with tension, authenticity, and a creeping sense of dread.

Tessa Calloway should be celebrating. She’s on tour for her blockbuster debut novel, All This Could Be Yours, and the audience is bigger at each stop. Her book features the main character, Annabelle, a woman who made a single, fateful choice that set her free. What the audiences do not know is that Annabelle was real. As she travels from bookstore to bookstore, a few too-specific questions from audience members crop up followed then a message left behind at her signing table, and finally, proof that she is being watched.

Ryan masterfully weaves the thrill of a fast-paced book tour with the unraveling of a secret too dangerous to keep buried. With every stop on the tour, the stakes climb higher, and the sense of unease rises. All This Could Be Yours is Hank Phillippi Ryan at her finest with a sharp, unsettling, and impossible to put down novel.
