This was a great follow up to The Last Mrs. Parrish, which I loved last year! Great twists, but easy to follow!

Loved this book! It was a great sequel. I loved seeing what ended up happening with Amber, Daphne and Jackson. I definitely recommend this book!

🩷🩵Book Review:
Title: The Next Mrs. Parrish
Author: Liv Constantine
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️/3 stars

I'm sorry, but if marrying and staying in the marriage for money causes this much havoc, I'll pass! I'll just enjoy my middle-class life over here with way last drama!

It has been a while since I first read, The Last Mrs. Parrish, and I considered rereading it first before starting this one, but it really wasn't necessary. I only had vague memories of the first book, but it still flowed easily into the second novel.

Jackson Parrish has remarried, and the lucky wife is Amber Patterson Parrish! But is she? Lucky? Hmmmm....I guess if deceit, tax invasion, revenge, prison time, betrayal, domestic violence, murder and so on, is lucky? As you progress into this book, the drama just keeps getting worse!!! It was pretty entertaining and kept me on my toes wondering what craziness was going to happen next! Definitely keeps you engaged!

Thank you, @netgalley and @randomhouse, for the ARC in exchange for my honest review!

Having enjoyed the Last Mrs. Parrish, I was delighted to get the opportunity to read The Next Mrs. Parrish.
Daphne is trying to put her life and her daughters lives back together after Amber came in like a wrecking ball and destroyed her family. Now the tables are turned and Amber is paying the price for her past sins. This thriller has some interesting twists and turns that will keep you reading until the last page!
Thank you NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group – Ballentine for my ARC.

*The Next Mrs. Parrish* by Liv Constantine is an absolutely thrilling, fast-paced psychological suspense novel that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. The story revolves around two women—Amber, an ambitious, somewhat desperate woman with a troubled past, and Heather, the seemingly perfect wife of the wealthy Jason Parrish. When Amber enters their world, becoming friends with Heather and setting her sights on Jason, the tension begins to build, and so does the sense that things are not as perfect as they seem.

What I love about this book is how the suspense never lets up. Liv Constantine does an exceptional job of weaving together multiple points of view, revealing key pieces of the puzzle slowly and deliberately. The characters are richly complex, and as the story progresses, you’re constantly kept guessing about their true intentions. Amber, in particular, is a fascinating character—her motivations are unclear at times, and her actions blur the line between sympathy and suspicion.

The pacing is impeccable, with just the right amount of twists, reveals, and shocking moments that keep you hooked. As the layers of deception are peeled away, the plot becomes even more riveting, and the stakes feel incredibly high. The story is full of manipulation, obsession, and betrayal, making it the perfect read for fans of psychological thrillers.

Ultimately, *The Next Mrs. Parrish* is a twisty, addictive, and highly enjoyable thriller that is impossible to put down. If you enjoy books with unreliable narrators, dramatic twists, and a deep dive into the darker sides of human nature, this book will be right up your alley. It’s a masterfully crafted, edge-of-your-seat kind of story, and one that will linger long after you’ve finished it.

The Next Mrs. Parrish is a fast paced game of cat and mouse between nemesis Amber and Daphne from The Last Mrs. Parrish and delves into the mysterious past of Amber including other's wronged by her narcissistic behaviors!!

And, let's not forget the controlling and manipulative Jackson! What will he get up to after his release from prison?!?! Will he be a changed man?!?!

A quick, easy, unputdownable follow up! I really enjoyed this book overall and felt it kept up the suspense! The story had a few inconsistencies and unbelievability which held me from a 5 star review but worth the time to read!

Thank yo Netgalley and Random House Publishing Group for the E-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the review copy.

This was a sequel that I wasn’t needing, and still don’t think I needed. But it was fun. If you like the first one then you’ll like this one.

Rating: 4/5

I really liked this book and want to go back and the read the first one. It starts off with two women Daphne and Amber. Amber is the current Mrs.Parrish and she enjoys all the spoils of her husbands success until he goes to jail for tax fraud. Amber realizes she needs to do something in order to maintain their status while Daphne wants nothing to do with her ex while her daughters want some kind of relationship with him. He winds up getting out early and Daphne and her kids spends the summer in Connecticut. Things keep happening but who can trust who?

The Next Mrs. Parrish is the sequel to The Last Mrs. Parrish. We pick up right where we left off with Amber as the new wife, Daphne safe away from her past chaos and Jackson in prison.

Tallulah runs away from home leaving Daphne in a panic and realizing that her girls really want to see their father. She agrees to a summer with Jackson but is quickly sucked right back into his trap.

Meanwhile Amber is planning her own escape but the life she ran away from before is quickly catching up with her.

I enjoyed this book so much, it was a great ending to the story. I do wish the ending was a little different but overall liked the book.

Thank you so much NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was a fabulous follow up to The Last Mrs. Parrish. And revisits a prequel that was released in between the two books. I love hating all of these characters. It’s such a fun read.

I couldn’t quite remember reading the first book and debated reading it again before reading this one but once I started reading I was able to recall the basics as many of the characters are in this one from the first book. However I also think this book could be read as a stand alone as well.
It’s filled with a ton of unpredictable jaw dropping moments. Some seem a bit far-fetched, but if you can get past that and allow yourself to indulge in the pure insanity of these sociopathic characters… it’s quite enjoyable!
4 stars

This book was good. I found it a little slower than the first book, but a fun read as a follow up to a great story.

I enjoyed the story, but it didn't feel fresh or compelling. I was left a bit disappointed after the original Mrs. Parrish books from Constantine.

There is just something special about revisiting the characters from a favorite book. I was beyond excited to read The Next Mrs. Parrish and I was definitely satisfied with this sequel written under the pen name Liv Constantine, which is actually the brainchild of sisters who write over Facetime together. As an aspiring author, I have been intrigued by their collaboration. They do a great job of building suspense and storyline around each of the main lead ladies, and Jackson Parrish. I also recommend the Prequel The First Shot.

I enjoyed this sequel almost as much as I did the first book. I was thoroughly entertained and invested in the characters and their journey.

I loved the sequel to the best selling thriller! So fun to continue developing characters from the first novel. Will add more later

I wound up loving this sequel to The Last Mrs. Parrish! When I first began reading The Next Mrs. Parrish I admit to thinking it my be a DNF for me, but a few chapters in I was engrossed and was surprised by a couple plot twists by the final pages--I think I enjoyed this one even more than the first book. Some familiar characters, some new, tracking across the US and sinister plot lines--what more do we readers want out of a second novel? Brain candy with a fast pace = recommend The Last Mrs. Parrish if you haven't read it, just to move along to this one!

My thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing/Ballantine for the opportunity to read this title in exchange for my honest review!

I liked this just as much if not more than the first one. I did not guess the ending and it kept me engrossed from beginning to end. overall 4 stars

Love this Mrs. Parrish novel. After reading the first one I thought this one would also be a great next read. Was intrigued by the cover and my initial reactions with the first book were great. I was pretty drawn in on Chapter 1. It's on the longer side but still enjoyed reading and would recommend to book club and my followers. Looking forward to what Liv Constantine writes next.

Loved this sequel! It had old characters but brought new ones in and it didn't feel forced. Perfectly twisty.

Took a minute to figure out how the new characters would connect to the old characters. And sometimes I wanted to scream - you know better! but that is what made this book so great.
