If you thought you couldn't dislike Amber more, you couldn't be more wrong. What a tangled web this book is, but overall very entertaining read. Before reading. I would definitely recommend brushing up on the first two books that follow this one as there's a lot of details from both that were hard to recollect. I think the story pieced together nicely and has a satisfying ending.

This book was just ok for me. Amber's and Jackson's characters are just so unlikeable. The story was entertaining. 3 stars.

"The Next Mrs. Parrish" takes you on a wild ride with Amber Patterson Parrish and her socialite struggles. In this follow-up to "The Last Mrs. Parrish," get ready for suspense, revenge, and a rollercoaster of alliances. The author doesn't hold back on the drama, making you question who's trustworthy and who's not. The characters' relationships are like a maze, and just when you think you've figured it out, bam, there's a shocking twist! It's a high-stakes game with lots of unexpected turns. The book keeps you hooked until the last page, making you rethink everything about trust and betrayal. Overall, a thrilling read that'll keep you on your toes in the crazy world of the Parrish crew!

5 stars out of 5!

Wow, this was such an awesome read. Definitely my favorite read of 2024 so far! The writing was flawless and really had me hooked from the beginning. I did not want to put this book down, it had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I also want to say, I have never hated a character more than I hated Amber. She was infuriating and just a terrible person. Jackson wasn't much better either. I did not read the first book in the series but I think this could be read as a standalone but now I am going back to read book 1. Overall, I would highly highly recommend reading this fast paced thriller!

In The Next Mrs. Parrish, We see that Daphne has moved with her girls to California and started their lives over. But then her oldest daughter ended up running away to meet up with her estranged father. Daphne ends up agreeing to go back to Connecticut so the girls can see their father again. Their father, Jackson, is fresh out of prison for tax evasion and still married to his current wife Amber. Amber ends up running into an enemy she once had. Everything eventually is tied together but this was a wild ride! I don't want to give too much away but wow this book has so many moving pieces to it.

Thank you Netgalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Received an early copy thanks to Netgalley! What an incredible opportunity it was to finish a GREAT series. Although, I do hope it isn't, "the end."

The way Lynne and Valerie (together, Liv) write paints a clear picture in your head as if it's a movie and no a book. Without spoiling the book, I can say we have beautiful closure. Each character with their own deserved "ending." One particular character gets a scene akin to Tony Soprano himself, a "will they or won't they" fade to black ending. Any reader can assume the ending, but Lynne and Valerie could definitely continue that character if we had another book.

The last Mrs. Parrish was my favorite book of 2018 and this sequel did not disappoint. I was so excited to receive an ARC from Netgalley and the publisher.

After Jackson Parrish is released from prison for tax fraud, Amber wants out and Daphne gets lured back to Connecticut from California, where she has been living peacefully with her girls and her mother. We also have the addition of a new narrator, Daisy Ann, a firecracker rich lady from Dallas. But how is Daisy Ann connected to the story? That is one of the twists I absolutely was unprepared for and it was soooo good!!

Make sure you buckle up for this crazy ride!!!

Liv Constantine did it again! I was so excited to see that there is sequel to the Last Mrs Parrish. I was hooked from the first page of The Next Mrs Parrish. I found myself not being able to put down the book to see what Jackson and Amber were up to. I loved the addition of Daisy Anne and how they were all connected. The ending was perfect and I can't wait to suggest this book to everyone. This series will always be one of my favorites!

WOW!

***possible spoilers**

If you thought The Last Mrs. Parrish was twisty -- buckle up. The women we love to hate is back.

I had listened to most of the prequel, and once I realized Daisy Ann was the daughter, I was deeply intrigued as to how all the characters were going to tie together. This book grabs you from the get go and refuses to let go. I rooted hard for Daphne, knowing her and Daisy Ann had to come out on top in this story. Daisy Ann doesn't start out as the most likeable character.

I don't always love the descriptions of lavish parties/shopping sprees/outfits, but they aren't overdone in this one. I FLEW through the last 35% off this book because literally every other chapter ended on a new twist. (and while I knew the diamonds hadn't been legally obtained, I wanted a little more about where they had come from!)

Finished this late into the night like I did the last Mrs. Parrish. I just couldn't put it down in the second half. I thought I saw the twists coming and had no idea in most cases. For readers that enjoyed the Last Mrs. Parrish, you will love this one too!

Thank you Netgalley for the Advanced Reader's Copy of The Next Mrs. Parrish. The first book, The Last Mrs. Parrish has been on my top 10 books of all time. The Next Mrs. Parrish is very captivating with all the twists and turns. Liv Constantine keeps you on the edge of your seat throughout the whole book. Great, fast-paced read. I highly recommend.

Liv Constantine’s books are always entertaining. I was happy to be thrust back into the world of Amber, Jackson and Daphne. I was satisfied with the ending of the book..All in all this book is a fast and satisfying read. Thank you to NetGalley for allowing me to read and review this book.

The part 2 I didn't know I wanted! When I saw this book was being released, I knew I had I read it. As much as I wanted Daph to continue living life away from Jackson and have her happy every after, I knew I'd be in for a wild ride. There's so much to say, but I don't want to spoil anything. I read this over a weekend and wish I would have savored it a bit more.


Thank you for allowing me to read this early! I loved this more than the first one. It was't as predictable as some other books I've recently read. It kept me on my toes and I was rooting for Daph the whole way through. It was confusing at first when Dasiy Ann was introduced, but I am more than pleased with the way things played out.

The second book was just as good as the first! Daphne/Amber/Jacksons story continues to twist and turn as a few new characters are added to the mix. The storyline keeps you guessing throughout and spoiler alert…everyone gets what they deserve in the end.

Thanks to NetGalley and Liv Constantine for providing this pre-released book for me to read and review!

I just reviewed The Next Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine. #TheNextMrsParrish #NetGalley

Title: Captivating and Brilliant Authors!

Rating: ★★★★★

Review:

The Constantine sisters are undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in the literary world. Their unique writing style, coupled with their ability to keep readers hooked from start to finish, is a testament to their talent as authors.

Their storytelling abilities are nothing short of brilliant, and I find myself completely immersed in all of their narratives. Each twist and turn keeps me on the edge of my seat, eagerly turning the pages to uncover what will happen next.

What I truly admire about the Constantine sisters is their ability to create complex and multi-dimensional characters. Every protagonist and antagonist felt so real, with their own flaws, strengths, and secrets. It was impossible not to become emotionally invested in their journeys, rooting for some and despising others.

Furthermore, their ability to craft intricate and suspenseful plots is remarkable. The Constantine sisters have a knack for weaving together intricate threads of mystery, deception, and intrigue that constantly keep me guessing.

In conclusion, the Constantine sisters as a duo are absolute geniuses. If you're a fan of suspenseful and gripping thrillers, I highly recommend picking up any book written by these incredible authors. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

I devoured the first book, The Last Mrs. Parrish, when it came out a few years ago. It was twisty, and turny and full of rich people who do bad things. The prequel novella, The First Shot, was OK...but was it necessary? Did we need more backstory on the insufferable and morally corrupt Amber? Well, I guess we did because, flash forward to four years after that novella, and Amber is back. And she is still the (cue Jean Ralphio meme) WORST. I enjoyed The Next Mrs. Parrish, though it wasn't as much of a pulpy plot as the first, and the addition of the new character, Daisy, was a little tedious but ultimately paid off. Sorry this review is super vague, but I wanted to keep it spoiler free for the first two books. Thank you Random House Publishing and NetGalley for the ARC for my honest review.

This sequel does not disappoint!! I was on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen next. I loved the continuation of the characters. The storyline is perfect and well written.

As an avid fan eagerly anticipating the release of "The Next Mrs. Parrish," I was fortunate enough to get my hands on an advance copy, and let me tell you – it was well worth the wait! Liv Constantine has truly outdone themselves with this sequel, crafting a narrative that effortlessly surpasses the brilliance of the first part.

From the very beginning, the characters in "The Next Mrs. Parrish" come to life with a vividness that is both captivating and unnerving. The speed at which the plot unfolds keeps readers on the edge of their seats, with twists and turns that are as unexpected as they are thrilling. The intricate web of lies continues to grow, ensnaring everyone in its path, and the resolution is nothing short of satisfying as each character receives what they truly deserve.

What sets this novel apart is the masterful exploration of the characters' psyche, especially those who have endured abusive relationships. The portrayal is both raw and authentic, capturing the essence of the emotional toll such relationships can take. The freedom and liberation experienced by those who break free from the shackles of abuse are depicted with a poignant realism that resonates long after the final pages.

One of the novel's strengths lies in its ability to evoke conflicting emotions towards the villains. Are they truly detestable, or is there a glimmer of sympathy for the hardships they've faced? Liv Constantine skillfully navigates these gray areas, leaving readers questioning their own perceptions and moral compass.

The theme of maternal instinct and the lengths a mother will go to protect her children adds a powerful layer to the narrative. The novel portrays the resilience and courage of mothers facing their worst nightmares head-on, emphasizing the strength found in the face of adversity.

Additionally, the book sheds light on the pervasive issue of power dynamics, exposing the dark reality of individuals who exploit their influence to prey on the vulnerable. This societal commentary adds depth to the story, making it not only a compelling thriller but also a thought-provoking exploration of human nature.

In conclusion, "The Next Mrs. Parrish" is a true masterpiece that exceeds all expectations. Liv Constantine has crafted a gripping and emotionally charged narrative that delves into the complexities of relationships, abuse, and the indomitable spirit of those who strive for freedom. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to read this outstanding sequel before its official release as an Advance Reader Copy. It is a must-read for anyone seeking thrilling literary experience.

A few years ago, when I first read The Last Mrs. Parrish, I rated it 2 stars. Ever since then, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I knew it was super popular and hyped. I thought I may have been too harsh on that rating. So when I was approved for The Next Mrs. Parrish, I changed my rating to 3 stars.
After reading The Next Mrs. Parrish, I was reminded why I rated it so low initially. The decisions the characters make to move the plot forward does not make sense. It makes for a frustrating and unenjoyable read. Jackson is always impossibly one step ahead of Daphne while also being one step behind Amber.
The Next Mrs. Parrish introduces us to Daisy Ann but I don’t think she’s centered in the story enough for the reader to care and makes for a very convenient ending.
I think this book suffers from the infamous Unnecessary Sequel category.
That being said, will I read anything by this author? Yes.
Will I be seated when The Last Mrs. Parrish movie releases? Also yes.

This book took me on an incredible journey, so, if you read or haven’t read the last Mrs. Parish you need to read it. This book. the last Mrs. Parrish is and was phenomenal. I honestly did not want to put the book down because it was so good. Every chapter had my jaw dropped wide open. The twists and turns in this book will keep you up not wanting to do anything else. So do yourself a huge favor when this book comes out, get yourself a copy and read it. Liv Constantine thank you so much for allowing me to read this phenomenal book. Congratulations.

Thank you NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, Bantam for letting me read this e-arc early.This was one of my most anticipated books that I wanted to read this year. It did not disappoint me one bit.It was, for me however a bit slow to get into.This is the 3rd book in the series. You should read The Last Mrs. Parrish and the prequel novella The First Shot before reading this book.
With shocking turns and entertaining characters, The Next Mrs. Parrish will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about duplicity and betrayal.
