"Stephanie Willing is first-rate in her narration of this audiobook about marital strife and deceit."- AudioFile
The House Guest is another diabolical cat-and-mouse thriller from USA Today bestselling author Hank Phillippi Ryan—but which character is the cat, and which character is the mouse?
After every divorce, one spouse gets all the friends. What does the other one get? If they’re smart, they get the benefits. Alyssa Macallan is terrified when she’s dumped by her wealthy and powerful husband. With a devastating divorce looming, she begins to suspect her toxic and manipulative soon-to-be-ex is scheming to ruin her—leaving her alone and penniless. And when the FBI shows up at her door, Alyssa knows she really needs a friend.
And then she gets one. A seductive new friend, one who’s running from a dangerous relationship of her own. Alyssa offers Bree Lorrance the safety of her guest house, and the two become confidantes. Then Bree makes a heart-stoppingly tempting offer. Maybe Alyssa and Bree can solve each others’ problems.
But no one is what they seem. And the fates and fortunes of these two women twist and turn until the shocking truth emerges: You can’t always get what you want. But sometimes you get what you deserve.

BRILLIANT CAT-AND-MOUSE THRILLER!
Multiple Award Winner Hank Phillipi Ryan’s fans will be thrilled with her latest release, a brilliant cat-and-mouse thriller, The House Guest. In my opinion, this is Ryan’s best work to date and is my personal favorite of all of her novels. From the first paragraph, Ryan draws readers into this intricately woven story of divorce, division, and deception. Because with every divorce, there is division–a division of money, property, and friends, which typically leads to deception. And Ryan has loaded this novel with deception! Readers will enjoy trying to determine which character to believe amid all the deception—the wife who claims she was caught off guard by her husband's request for a divorce, the husband whose personality began changing in the weeks before he left, the new friend the wife makes who suddenly finds herself an heiress, the attorney who was sent to find the heiress but nearly scared her to death and now has become their friend, an FBI Agent investigating the soon-to-be ex-husband, and the wife’s former law school friend. Here is the Big Question: Will anyone have possession of the millions of dollars at stake when all is said and done? Brilliant cat-and-mouse thriller from beginning to end!
