Another captivating and gripping book by Hank Phillippi Ryan! In All This Could Be Yours, she looks at fame, success, obsession, stalking, and book promotion. I have been a fan of hers for quite some time and always enjoy reading her books. I used to watch Hank Phillippi Ryan on the Boston news as an investigative reporter when I lived in Massachusetts. I attended an author event she participated in with two other authors at the Carlisle public library back in the day! I have been a fan of her books since that time. This was the 9th book of hers that I have read and I look forward to reading her future books!
Tessa Calloway’s debut book is inspiring women across the county, and they are coming out in droves to attend her book signings! It’s her first book tour and it has taken her away from her family as he visits bookstore after bookstore and answers the questions of her new fans! Things get ‘interesting’ when she finds a necklace with a locket in a drawer in her hotel room. From there strange things begin to happen and audience member questions begin to make her nervous!
I enjoyed how this book gives readers glimpses into Tessa childhood and teen years while also showing Tessa in the present as a married mom and author. She is dealing with having a new home, being away from her husband and children while someone is proving to an unpleasant blast from her past!
As the book progresses the tension, dread, and unease continue mounting. Tessa is being stalked by someone, but who and why? I thought the author did a great job of showing how Tessa’s anxiety was mounting paired with her desire to keep her publisher happy. Hank Phillippi Ryan also depicted how the loneliness of being on the road, the desire to promote her book, while missing her family was affecting Tessa.
Wonderfully written, well thought out, and mysterious!
