Thank you to NetGalley for an advance reader copy of I loved this book. So many twists and turns. It was hard to put down - especially when every chapter ended with a cliffhanger. Well written. Recommend.

All This Could Be Yours is one of those thrillers you pick up thinking you’ll read a chapter or two—and suddenly it’s midnight and you’ve accidentally finished it. It follows Tessa Calloway, a debut author riding the wave of her first big book tour, which should be a dream come true. Instead, things get weird. Fast. She’s being followed, watched, harassed—and the stalker is only getting bolder. But Tessa isn’t exactly innocent. She’s hiding something—maybe even from herself. As the threats escalate, you start to wonder: is her family really safe back home? Is she? And who the hell is behind all this? The pacing is electric—short, sharp chapters that feel like eating chips out of a bag you can’t stop reaching into. The plot walks this fascinating line between the glittery illusion of fame and the messiness of regular life. Sure, Tessa’s in the spotlight, but she’s still dealing with nosy neighbors, awkward family stuff, and worrying if her house will still feel like hers when she gets back from her tour. What makes this book hit differently is how it plays with the overlap between real life and online life. Fame isn’t just about flashing cameras anymore—it’s about followers, perceptions, and the way your identity can splinter across platforms. Tessa’s story kind of lives in both realities, and the book messes with your expectations in the best way. It’s like a psychological thriller wrapped in a social media fever dream. The lines between character and author, fiction and truth, fan and stalker—blur in a way that makes you feel like you might be part of the story too. Last time I read a Hank Phillippi Ryan novel, I swore I’d only read her during daylight hours. This one? Let’s just say I’m double-checking the locks tonight.

Tess Calloway quits her corporate job to be a stay-at-home wife & mother. Three years later she finds herself on the road again as an author on a book tour this time. Her book, "All This Could Be Yours", is a best seller

A twisty, fast-paced thriller for everyone who loves reading. Emotionally engaging highs and lows in choices we make to live our best "one life".

I was cheering on Tess though some of her decisions are not those I would have made. Loved the ending. I had a hard time putting this one down. Thank you Hank Phillippi Ryan!


This may be my 2025 Christmas gift book.

📚 ARC Review
All This Could Be Yours by Hank Phillippi Ryan
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🗓️ Coming September 9, 2025

Talk about a masterclass in suspense! All This Could Be Yours is a gripping psychological thriller that hooks you slowly—then refuses to let go. This isn’t a fast-paced, action-heavy story, but rather a brilliantly layered slow burn that seeps under your skin, page by page.

We follow Tessa Calloway, a debut novelist whose dreams are finally coming true—her first book is a smash hit, her tour is packed with readers, and she’s enjoying every second of the spotlight. But that spotlight has shadows, and someone from her past is lurking within them. A stalker begins leaving cryptic messages, dredging up secrets Tessa thought she’d buried long ago. As the threats escalate, she’s forced to reckon with a terrifying question: how much of her success is built on lies?

Hank Phillippi Ryan delivers an emotionally charged, paranoia-drenched narrative that blurs the line between fame and fear. Tessa’s inner unraveling is just as intense as the external danger—Ryan nails the psychological depth. The tension builds with every chapter, and just when you think you’ve figured it out… she pulls the rug out from under you.

I was completely wrong about the twist—several times, actually—and I loved every second of being led astray. The red herrings, the misdirection, the clever pacing—it all pays off in a jaw-dropping finale that left me stunned.

This is a story about secrets, sacrifice, and how far someone will go to protect the life they’ve built. And it shines a brilliant light on the dark side of parasocial relationships and the price of public attention.

If you’re looking for a sharp, smart thriller with tension that coils tighter with every turn of the page, don’t miss this one. I’m officially adding Hank Phillippi Ryan to my must-read list.

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin’s Press / Minotaur Books for the advance copy! All opinions are my own.

A terrific read.. a chick flick book for sure.. not sure men will choose it. Hidden secret doesn’t warrant the mystery the author implies. The novel certainly captures the experience of book signing and publicity necessary to engender sales. The traveling is depicted with reality and the reader can empathize with the authors who have to endure the regimen. A well done effort.

Thank you to the book’s publisher and NetGalley for the ARC digital copy. I was not compensated for this review and all opinions are my own.

4 out of 5 stars and my respect to the author.

I love reading books about books, so this thriller about an author on her book tour was enjoyable! While I’d never thought of it before, I could completely believe the representation of over zealous fans… and I will admit to some hysteria of my own the first time an author interacted with me on social media LOL

The twisty turns kept me interested and intrigued throughout. And the writing kept me anxious for Tessa and her family!! I can be critical of endings, but this one seemed right - not too cute or overly convenient.

Definitely will read more by this author.

Tessa Calloway has just written her first book, All This Could Be Yours, and it is a popular bestseller. As she leaves behind her family to undertake a multi-city book tour, she should be on the top of the world. But strange things start happening and she fears for her safety. Could a decision she made when she was young be the cause, and who is behind it all?

Hank Phillippi Ryan has delivered a taut thriller here with All This Could Be Yours. The darker side of fandom is explored, how some people get infatuated by "knowing" celebrities. The characters are interesting and well written. With multiple twists and turns, that kept me guessing till the very end, I couldn't put this one down. 4.25 stars.

I received this advance copy from the publisher via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Masterful suspense ! The slow burn aspects really paid off here because it allowed the author to really get under your skin with psychological tension so you had a clear understanding of the emotional turmoil the main character was experiencing.

The plot follows a debut author who is thrust into fame and just at the heights she realizes that it’s all about to come crashing down. Someone from her past is stalking and circling her and waiting for the perfect moment to strike with ammunition of deadly secrets!

I really enjoyed this book and can’t wait for more from this author!

My only critique is I wish the book cover was giving something, if I hadn’t spotted the author the cover would not have attracted my interest!

Thank you to St Martin’s Press and Minotaur Books for the gifted copy,

Publishes - September 9th

First of all, I was so thrilled and grateful to be chosen to be a super reader for ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS! A huge thank you to HPR and the publisher for the opportunity. I had SO much fun reading this pulse-pounding cat and mouse thriller! This book was very bingeable and I was so hooked and flew through it. It was full of twists, turns and jaw dropping moments. I was hooked in from the first page until the very last. It also opened up my eyes to the potential dangers authors might have to deal with. Hank’s writing style is so unique and engrossing and I just love it so much. I will absolutely be reading through her backlist and cannot wait! Absolutely preorder or pick up a copy of this on 9/9 and thank me later!

Thank you again to HPR, Minotaur and NetGalley for the early digital copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This is now my favorite Hank P Ryan novel! I was hooked from page 1. All the twists, red herrings and and secrets made thos book un-put-downable. Tessa is an author on book tour. There are secrets from her childhood, mysterious objects, and strange people that come into her life. Meanwhile her family is trying to navigate the move to a new home. 5 stars!!

I have enjoyed several books by this author and had hoped that this would be the same. Overall it wasn't bad, but the repetitive thoughts just dragged it down. The book seemed way to long due to this. Good story, but a few too many elements to it - the locket, the family left at home, the incidents, etc.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC.

When Tess decides to leave her old life behind and start anew, she doesn't realize that her past would catch up to her. The story details the perils of putting your life on social media and what can happen when everyone knows your next move. The story was good but the insight into her past needed to come faster in the story in order to keep the reader involved. It's hard to figure out why she would not reach out more for help, even once the past is explained. Some of the main character's behaviors were so odd that it takes the reader out of the story momentarily. The premise was great but the delivery still needs some work.

This is an engaging story. It’s slow paced. There are a few twists and turns. There are secrets and misconceptions. It’s an interesting story. It’s a good beach read. I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced free copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own. I received a copy from the publisher through NetGalley.

I am a big Hank Phillipi Ryan fan. I just finished All This Could Be Yours and I loved it. Don't skip this one.

Thanks to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the advanced reader copy.

This is my third or fourth Hank Phillipi Ryan book and they've been hit or miss for me. Unfortunately ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS falls in the second category. The main character of Tessa didn't make a lot of sense to me. We start out with her quitting her job because she wants to be with her family more often, but then when we come back to her she's a best selling author who's doing more traveling on book promotion than being with her family. The elements of the book also felt like they were telling different stories (a woman who is realizing the dangers of being a bestselling author, a woman who might have a mental health concern--she's "hearing" Annabelle, a woman who's consumed with social media fame, a woman who tries to track down the owner of a locket she finds in her hotel room). There wasn't anything cohesive in these pieces and ultimately this wasn't my kind of book.

I've never read a book by this author but I will rectify that! This was an interesting mystery/thriller with a fun premise. An author has secrets in her past, and when she goes on a book tour someone appears to be wanting to expose those secrets. We follow the author, Tessa, from city to city on the bookstore where--lots of stuff happens. The constant travel is a great technique to get the story moving and to keep the reader interested. Great wrap up of the story and the tying up of loose ends (although the parts with 'Sam' strained credibility!).

This was a fun slow burn thriller. I was legitimately surprised by the big reveal which is always a plus, I could see this being a popular book club book

A big thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for inviting me to read this book before its publication, and for providing an e-book copy.

I remember hearing this author's name in the past (it is, after all, rather memorable) and possibly reading one or more of her books, but that would have been several years ago. Now that I've read this latest story, I'll have to go back and read her previous books.

Other reviewers have offered plot synopses, and I really don't have much more to offer in that department. I can say that this writer is a master at strewing "hooks" around, especially at chapter ends, which makes it a lot harder for the reader to put the book down. I also found that as the plot twists got more and more twisty, I actually did need to put the book down and take a breather. And as is usual for me, I did not guess how it was all going to turn out.

One detail (which doesn't affect the plot in any way) I wondered about was that Tessa's publisher had her flying in economy on the book tour that takes up much of the story. Some years ago I knew of some best-selling authors whose publishers flew them in first class on tour. Perhaps those days are over, or perhaps some publishers nowadays choose to fly their authors in economy and others might fly them in first class. One would think that considering Tessa was making them lots and lots of money, the least they could do was put her in first class.

I loved this book so much! I have read almost all of Hank Phillipi Ryan and this was my favorite by far! I read the whole thing in one sitting and could not put it down.

I was so excited to be chosen to be an early reader and I’m so sorry life got in the way of me posting this sooner. Both my parents are struggling with health issues.

But in to the book. A writer going out on her book tour. Tessa was very relatable. I just can’t imagine having to leave your family for six weeks.

I knew Tessa had a secret and I was anxiously awaiting to know what it was and if it had anything to do with all the shenanigans happening. She finds jewelry then loses the jewelry and then finds more.

It seems like a cat and mouse game without her knowing what the game or the consequences are. Or could all this just be Tessa overreacting?

I flew through this one as I tried to figure out what was going on. As soon as I was sure I had it all figured out, I was foiled and needed a new theory.

Such a great blend of the physical and psychological suspense along with the cat and mouse.
