"Willingham is known for psychological twists, and the one she plants here is a doozy." - Booklist

"A first-year college student accepts an invitation to leave her dormitory and move into a house with three other women. Then absolutely everything goes wrong . . . The payoff is handsome." - Kirkus Reviews

"Cunning . . . twisty . . . Willingham's prose remains evocative, and her deep dive into the thorny nature of female friendship rings true . . . a gripping ride." - - Publishers Weekly

"A hypnotic thriller . . . Stacy Willingham has already proven she's adept at keeping her readers guessing, and in her third outing she continues her masterfulness." - Charleston.com

"Willingham delivers twist after twist, every one unexpected, plausible, and clever. She's created a narrator who is telling far less than she knows but does so in a way that there's never a feeling of being duped or cheated. That feat alone should earn Willingham a place alongside Paula Hawkins and Gillian Flynn in the pantheon of great psychological thriller authors." - Southern Review of Books

"A twisty mystery that carefully unspools itself with each chapter, Only If You're Lucky is the kind of book that will grip a reader and refuse to let go. . . Dark, intense, and completely addictive." - Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here

"Utterly hypnotic. Only If You're Lucky seduces the reader into a spiderweb of beguiling friendships, sinister secrets, and the quicksilver danger lurking behind even the tightest of bonds. Reader beware this will keep you breathless to the very end." - Lisa Gardner
