Was I so excited when I found out there was a sequel to The Last Mrs. Parrish?!…YEP!

I loooved the first book and couldn’t wait to find out how this story continued.

There were the perfect amount of refreshers thrown in the beginning to bring me up to speed incase I didn’t remember all the details from book one. It made it easy to jump right back into these characters lives, and to meet some new ones.

I loved all the secrets, lies & revenge plots that floated around the entire time I read .
It kept things interesting and entertaining throughout the whole book, and I enjoyed all the twisty moments, and some definitely caught me by surprise.

The characters were great, some you’ll love, some you’ll hate- their personalities were so so different and I was into all their storylines. Multiple POVs in books are always a win for me so that was another little bonus.

I definitely recommend picking this one up- but read book one first!!

I was so excited for The Next Mrs. Parrish. I really enjoyed The Last Mrs. Parrish and the novella. The Next Mrs. Parrish was good but not as good as the first. I did enjoy the continuation of the story but why would Daphne go back in the first place? I was pulled into this book quickly but in the middle it slowed down for me and picked up more at the end. I felt there was a lot of repetition between the story lines being told by multiple people in different ways.

If you are going to read The Next Mrs. Parrish I recommend reading the novella first.

Thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine | Bantam for an ARC of The Next Mrs. Parrish for an honest review.

Looking for a quick, captivating, fun and juicy read ? A gripping well written plot line ? One where the villains get their due and the smart women hatch a plot that succeeds? This book is fun and surprising, twisty and full of surprises, while veering into the dark territory of psychological abuse especially in the presence of children, so there are uncomfortable moments - but they pass and it is back to the general storyline.
It is a dumpster fire that you simply cannot look away from! Backstabbing? Scheming? Gaslighting? The way that I hate these characters and want to yell at the
"good guys" for giving chances that shouldn't be given or at the villains for just being awful people! It is pure entertainment - rich and privileged people using their power in corrupt ways to control others. Although this is messy and none of it is ethical, you just simply cannot stop reading, watching the story unfold and wanting to know what they are going to come up with next.
Is this book only for readers who have read The Last Mrs. Parrish ? No, this works as a standalone thriller but if you want the enjoyment of seeing more of Daphne and Meredith or know more about the schemes Amber and Jackson cook up it is probably better to read them in order since this book mentions quite a few of the ways The Last Mrs. Parrish ends so that book would be spoiled if you read this one as a standalone.

It was so fun being back in the world of domestic deception in the Parrish family! While I wouldn't necessarily make the same choices Daphne did bring her kids back to the east coast for the sake of them being close to their insane father, it was certainly a fun ride to be a third party in. I liked the incorporation of new characters that were an integral part of Amber's story and how everything crumbled in her life. It's also intriguing to see that the story ends in a way that we could certainly find ourselves in this world once again in the future. I just hope Daphne gets a bit smarter this time in her actions!

Loved this second one---the ending was super satisfying. Was excellent on audio. finished in a day!

For most of this follow up to the Last Mrs Parrish I was finding the story enjoyable but I was pretty sure I was only going to rate it a 3, which in my rating system is a good book but nothing new or exciting about it. Then the last quarter of the book happened with all its twists and turns and confessions and the rating rose to a 4. An excellent follow up to an excellent book.

I love Liv Constantine’s books! I listened to The Last Mrs. Parrish on audiobook and finished in it 2 days! I was excited for this one and it didn’t disappoint! So many surprises!

What?? A sequel to The Last Mrs. Parrish?? Sign me up! Amber may have conned her way into Daphne's life, but is it really what she thought it would be? Jackson is in prison while Amber is struggling to keep up the lifestyle that she thought she would enjoy, but is she really just sitting back and waiting for Jackson to be released? Amber finds a nice little treasure that Jackson has hiding and starts her next scheme. However, on the west coast, Daphne is dealing with daughter issues and it brings her back to Bishops Harbor. Let the shenanigans begin! This sequel was just as good as The Last Mrs. Parrish. A must read for fans of twists! Thank you NetGalley and Random House Publishing for a digital arc of this title.

Thank you to PRHAudio for a #gifted ALC and to Random House Ballantine for an ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I LOVED The Last Mrs. Parrish and was so excited about this one, and it did NOT disappoint! This one brought all the drama like book one and more. Loved the multiple points of view which give you more info into what is going on. So many toxic characters with secrets and lies.

The audio was amazing and I felt like I was listening to a movie or tv show. It really brought it to life.

If you love some wild domestic psychological thriller action, do not sleep on this one! The Parrishes will take you on a wild ride!

The Next Mrs. Parrish is the followup to the very successful The Last Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine. This novel features Amber and Daphne, who are both Mrs Parrish, as well as one of my new favorite book characters, Daisy Ann. Their lives become unexpectedly intertwined and this will have life-changing consequences for them all. This book also contains a character who might possibly be the most unlikeable one I've ever read about. Read and enjoy!

This book was just ok for me. I enjoyed it. But didn’t love it. There were parts that lagged a tad and it took me longer than normal to finish.

Thank you for this arc!

The sequel that we didn’t know that we needed.

Don’t worry if It’s been a while since you read the last Mrs. Parrish. I thought I should have reread it because I read it so long ago- but these ladies made it super easy to jump right back in. If you haven’t read it- that’s ok too because I think it could be read as a standalone!

Spoilers ahead for The Last Mrs Parrish!! (The first book)

Daphne escaped Jackson with their two children, leaving manipulative Amber and abusive Jackson to their happily ever after. Since the daughters never learned the truth about their father, now Tallulah is questioning Daphne’s decision, so they return home to allow her daughters to see their father. Jaxon seems to be playing nice, and Daphne would do anything for her daughters, but Jackson’s fooled them all once before.

I loved this sequel! It was just as white-knuckle as the first. There are a couple of story lines that were well balanced and interesting. I thought the pacing was great and I wanted to keep reading- despite having a busy week. I just love reading about Jackson’s manipulations, gaslighting, and lies- they got me so angry. I really felt sympathetic towards Daphne. Plus Amber- I don’t know if I’ve ever read two more infuriating characters.

I did just love it!

👒 The Next Mrs. Parrish - Liv Constantine

4 ⭐️ - I didn’t think The Last Mrs. Parrish needed a sequel, but I am oh no glad it got one. I loved being back in the dramatic world of these characters. While this could easily be read as a standalone - I don’t recommend that. Check out the first one first!

Amber Parrish has come a long way from the wallflower she used to be. Less than a year after her husband, Jackson, went to jail for tax evasion, Amber is still at the top of her game, doing whatever she pleases while he’s away. But that quickly comes to an end when Jackson is released early and her money is dwindling. Meanwhile, Daphne Parrish left her abusive husband, Jackson, and got her daughters far away from him. But when one of her daughters runs away from home to visit her dad, she agrees to take them back to see him for the summer when he gets out of prison. When a ghost from Ambers past resurfaces, will the 3 of them find allies in each other and who is really playing who?

Okay so, I didn’t think we needed a sequel here and to be honest, when I first started it, I was skeptical. BUT, I am so happy with this sequel I didn’t know I needed. I quickly fell back in love with the rich-socialite lifestyle, money problems, and neighborhood drama. I missed these characters more than I thought and I loved being back in their world! I am so pleasantly surprised by this one, which I’m not really sure why, I love everything Liv Constantine puts out. I definitely recommend it but I recommend reading The Last Mrs. Parrish first!

You won’t regret reading this thriller!!

The characters you love to hate are back again in the sequel “The Next Mrs. Parrish”! Readers can dive into this as a standalone but I would recommend reading the first book! Daphne and her daughters moved across the country and thought their troubles with Jackson were gone…until he is released from prison. Faced with new struggles, single parenting, and the need for closure, Daphne is wrapped up into a tumultuous conflict with her ex-husband and the new Mrs. Parrish, Amber. This was entertaining and fast-paced, but a bit unrealistic and frustrating. I found myself yelling at the characters and rolling my eyes here and there. Overall, 3 stars but not a thriller I would recommend to all readers. Thank you NetGalley for the ARC!

I was thrilled to hear that Liv Constantine was putting out a sequel to The First Mrs. Parrish since I thorough enjoyed the first one, and The Next Mrs. Parrish did not disappoint. Amber and Jackson are both people that you just love to hate. The Constantine sisters do an incredible job developing the characters in a way that while you're supposed to dislike them, you can't help but want to know more about them and understand why they are the way they are. Learning more about Amber's backstory, the introduction of Daisy Ann, and Daphne and Jackson's mess of a relationship made for an exciting and interesting read and kept me wanting more. Definitely another very good, fast paced book from Liv Constantine. 3.5 stars bumped to 4.

Thank you to NetGalley, Random House, and Liv Constantine for an ARC in exchange for my review.

The Next Mrs. Parrish
by Liv Constantine

The next Mrs. Parrish is the sequel to The last Mrs. Parrish but don’t fret if you did not have a chance to read the Last Mrs. Parrish first, the author does a great job giving you enough pieces from the prior book!

I love all Liv Constantine books and this one is no exception! It will keep you on the edge of your seat!

Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine for the digital advanced readers copy!! Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Add it to your TBR!!

While I can't say I loved this much as the first book, I will say it was very enjoyable. Fabulous ending!! everything tied together perfectly

I was beyond excited to see where this one was going to go, and let me tell you it did not disappoint! Although this book made me scream at it a thousand times for everything that was happening, to get to where it did in the end made up for it for sure!! This was super twisty, literally had me on the edge of my seat waiting to find out what happened, and was just perfection! I do highly recommend reading the prequel novel though before this one!
