I didn't think this could be better than my all time favorite "The Last Mrs. Parrish", but it was!!!!!! This was so juicy, so exciting, and twisty!!!! I loved it so much!

Awesome. I freaking loved this book! So much drama and so many lies. I really never knew what to believe. Jaw dropping twists all the way through. Fantastic book! Thank you NetGalley for this arc

The Next Mrs. Parrish was such a great cat and mouse suspenseful read where you really can’t figure out who’s doing what. A fast paced thrilling read. I refreshed my memory with the first shot. Definitely love these characters.

As other reviewers have noted, be sure to read The First Shot by the authors, available on Kindle Unlimited.

Despite disliking every single character in the first book, when I saw this one, I requested it - if for no other reason than hoping that Jackson and / or Amber would get their just desserts.

Cons -
*it’s wildly unrealistic and in reading this, your suspension of disbelief will get quite a workout
*it’s predictable and didn’t really start moving until the midway point.
*characters have no growth
*and Daphne? I was so frustrated reading her parts and just wanted to shake some sense into her

Pros -
*once the plot picked up, it’s very readable

I’m an outlier in my opinion of this, as many other early reviews seemed to really enjoy this.



Thank you to Bantam and NetGalley for the DRC

I know I’m in the minority, but I was underwhelmed by this book. The whole premise of Daphne having any contact at all with Jackson seemed ridiculous to me. I found most of it kind of boring; I was never excited to return to my kindle and start reading a new chapter. I’m sure other people will love it, but it wasn’t for me.

Liv Constantine does it again! In the second installment of the Mrs. Parrish series, Amber and Jackson are up to their old tricks. Daphne and her daughters have unfortunately been lured back to Connecticut and Jackson is trying his hardest to have the family he wants. In the meantime, Amber is planning to get her revenge on a few people that have wronged her and then she plans to get out of dodge. Filled with suspense and twists and turns; The Next Mrs. Parrish was a great read and just as good as the first!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I can’t wait to read more from Liv Constantine!

Thank you to Random House Publishing for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Oh goodness what a roller coaster this read was. The entire time reading this book, all I could think about was “ Everyone has secrets what’s yours “. This book had so many cliff hangers that I couldn’t help to keep reading and who doesn’t love sweet revenge. !

Special thanks to NetGalley for the advanced reader copy of this book. The theme of the entire 'Mrs. Parrish' series is revenge and boy was this one a roller coaster ride of just that and then some. I felt like this one was a little more far fetched and unrealistic than the first book and I wanted to scream at Daphne at times, but I can't fault it too much because I couldn't put it down.

This book did not disappoint. Well written and kept you guessing until the very last page. Great character development.
This books hits so many different emotions as the story unfolds. Without giving too much away I would like to say it has a very satisfying ending.
Thank you Bantam Books for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

Thank you NetGalley for this ARC. I gave this three stars, but honestly, I’d read it again because did want to know what the characters were up to. This is my general feeling about most sequels. The reader can catch up with their characters, see how the author dreams up their future, and move on to the next book.

I was so excited to read this book and thank NetGalley for the opportunity. Wow! What an amazing read. Every bit as good as the first in the series. You’ll want to run out and read The Next Mrs. Parrish

I loved this book. At first, I wasn't sure if it would be as good as the first one, but it quickly sucked me in and I couldn't put it down. It was fast-paced and the story had multi-points of views that all intertwined in the end. This book was well-written and full of drama. I am a big fan of thriller books and this one did not disappoint! I definitely would recommend it!

This review contains small spoilers for The Last Mrs. Parrish (book one in the series)

Amber is back and as devious as ever! But this time the stakes were raised even more. I am completely invested in Amber’s twisted mind, and I love the authors ability to somehow make you teeth clench in anger but still make you kind of want to see her get away with it. I really enjoyed a new third perspective in this book and how so many twists and turns happened where I really didn’t know if Daphne would be okay. At this point who knows what Amber could do next, she’s fueled by revenge and a desire to be rich and not reliant on others. When Jackson showed himself to be the monster he is at the end of the first book (The Last Mrs. Parrish) I wanted to see Amber get her just desserts. But now I’m kind of invested in her and what she’s doing. The author has managed to create such an interesting villain that makes reading these books so enjoyable. And Jackson… well he’s just evil.

I also think the real villain here might just be Tallulah 👀

Liv Constantine is always an auto-read author for me and this is no different. I highly recommend reading The Last Mrs. Parrish and Amber’s prequel The First Shot to really get everything you can from this one. I will say I was disappointed in Daphne at parts. For how strong she was portrayed in the end book 1 it almost seemed like she reverted back and allowed herself to become a victim again. Jackson seemed even more deranged and willing to do whatever it takes but I wanted to see the strength Daphne had found before.

Im also ready to see if Amber can get out of the new mess she made for herself and hope another book is on the horizon.

I was so worried I wouldn’t remember The Next Mrs Parrish since it had been awhile! That book really got me into the psychological thriller genre and I was so excited to read the sequel. It was like riding a bike! The author referenced several things that jogged my memory and I really enjoyed this new story. The twists hit at all the right times and ended on a bang! Will there be a third book? I think there is more story there!

it took me about 1/3 of the book to start getting into it because i couldn’t figure out where it was headed, but once i was into it, it was great! i would absolutely recommend reading the prequel before starting this one to fully understand the characters, but i think the explanations were fine for people who didn’t read the prequel as well. loved the ending and how the characters lives intertwined. one of my favorite series!

I loved this follow-up to the Last Mrs. Parrish. I found the story to be just as enthralling and really made me excited to keep reading and figure out all the clues. I can’t wait to read more by this author duo!

This picks up right where The Last Mrs. Parrish left off! And without giving any spoilers for either book, I’ll just say this is the continuation of Daphne, Jackson and Amber’s story, and will make you wonder, can someone really change? And if so, who will it be?
Thankfully this one didn’t delve as much into the twisted deviant behavior that rattled me in the first book, but rest assure there is enough evil, backstabbing, power controlling conduct to go around. As Daphne tries to navigate the minefield that is Jackson, Amber has plans of her own. The girls are grown and, not surprisingly, have issues to deal with. New characters are introduced. There seems to be a lot coming at you, but after twisting one way then another it comes to quite the climax.
This will be available June 18, 2024 and perfect for a kick off summer read!

**Spoiler Warning** - This review might contain spoilers.

Thank you Netgalley, Random House, and Liv Constantine for allowing me to review an advanced reader copy of The Next Mrs. Parrish. It had been awhile since I read the first book, so I appreciated the refresher on all the events that went down at the beginning of book #2. Wow! This was a ride.

I wanted to scream at Daphne for going back across the country, but then we wouldn't have this book! Jackson/Amber play such good villains. I never knew what they were going to do next. I was happy this book had a happy ending and their games finally caught up with them. I was cheering for Daphne throughout the this whole book and so glad she got closure. Please pick up this read! You won't be able to put it down.

4.5 stars!!

Holy cannoli this was just as good as the first one! Twist and turns. I’m so glad I had the opportunity to read this one! Thank you so very much

Thank you #netgalley for this ARC. I loved this wild ride as much as the first book. There were so many twists and turns, and, despite the fact that almost all the characters were unlikeable and deeply flawed, I still found myself rooting for justice. 4/5 stars. Would definitely recommend.
