I wasn’t sure where or how their stores would continue, but I was so pleasantly surprised! Amber schemes her way through life and the things she got away with, shocking! Jackson was your typical dirtbag, but the lengths he went through to get what he wants, just absolutely devious. And Daphne, continued to be so strong willed. The additional character lines tied beautifully with the story. I’m so happy their stories continued. It’s my next bookclub pick when it is released!

I’m always hesitant with sequels but this book was just as good as the first! I ate up every minute of it! Just when I thought I knew what was happening I was thrown for a curve ball! 5 stars!!

In this sequel, Daphne is thrust back into Amber and Jackson's lives at the behest of her daughter. Schemes abound and everyone has an end game of their own.

This follow-up to "The Last Mrs. Parrish" was a really fun read. It managed to keep the vibes of the first one without feeling too much like it was rehashing the events of the last book. Much like the first, the sheer audacity and downright villainy of some characters was infuriating - but in a good way.

If you enjoyed the first, I definitely recommend giving this one a read!

I liked this, I didn’t love it as much as the first but I kept my attention and was a quick read. I have loved everything Liv Constantine has written and this was on theme with that! I will continue to read anything they write!

If you enjoyed The Last Mrs Parrish, you won’t be disappointed with this sequel. (Highly recommend reading the first one before diving into this book!)

Yet again you will find yourself hating a character and being pissed off 😂. Each chapter leaves you hanging and wanting to keep going. I felt as if everything tied together really well and kept you guessing all the way up to the end.

Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Thank you @randomhouse for the advanced copy! This one was amazing! I liked it more than “The Last Mrs. Parrish.” Plus, there’s nothing better than sweet sweet justice.

If you haven’t read “The Last Mrs. Parrish,” spoilers ahead. The Last Mrs. Parrish ends with Daphne leaving Jackson and moving away. Jackson is in prison for tax evasion and Amber has stolen him away from Daphne, and she’s pregnant.

“I see that for Jackson, cruelty and kindness grow in the same garden.”

Two + years later…. Daphne and her girls are doing great in California until Daphne’s older daughter runs away in an attempt to go back to Connecticut to see her father, who was just released from prison. Daphne reluctantly agrees to spend the summer in Connecticut, where she sees Jackson on the regular. Amber is still in the picture and engages in a bitter rivalry with someone from her past. This brings trouble to Amber and sheds light on her life prior to Connecticut.

I didn’t realize how much this story needed a sequel. It was so so good. I loved new empowered Daphne. I couldn’t put this one down. This is told in first person rotating between the three main female leads with one chapter from Jackson’s point of view.

✨ Genre: Thriller
🩷 Steamy rating: Mild
🤬 Profanity:

Triggers: Murder, drugging someone, domestic violence, emotional abuse, and gaslighting

After devouring The Last Mrs. Parrish and loving the twists and turns I was excited to read this sequel. While interesting enough for me to see it to the end I was disappointed. The choices Daphne made in the book infuriated me at times. While some missteps with her character were necessary to carry the story line, she deserved more. The addition of character Daisy Anne and her interwoven story line with Amber is the saving grace. I enjoyed the backstory that supported furthering Amber’s devious and deceptive character building. Worth a read if nothing else is in your TBR pile.

Thank you Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine |Bantam, NetGalley, and the author for the advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Amber wants out of Connecticut and out of hiding from her past. She develops a plan while double-crossing Jackson again to escape to Europe with millions. Meanwhile, Daisy Ann refuses to let her instinct go that Amber truly murdered her father. With Amber being the common tie, these lives all intertwine for a thrilling account of murder, lies, corruption, and connection.

4.5⭐️

First, thank you to NetGalley & Random House Publishing for this advance reader copy of The Next Mrs. Parrish!

I had somewhat high expectations for this second book and boy did it live up to it! Missed the 5⭐️ mark for me only because it took a good 100 pages or so to get really into it. Once the plot started thickening it was all twists and turns! It was a rush being back in the Bishops Harbor setting with Amber, Daphne and Jackson and I LOVED Daisy Ann’s entry and ties into the story, her character made everything happening all the more intriguing. The perfect follow up I’ll be recommending to everyone who loved The Last Mrs Parrish!

Make sure to pre-order or grab it on pub day June 18th!!!

Yay! I loved The Last Mrs. Parrish so I was beyond thrilled to receive an ARC, #netgalley, of The Next Mrs. Parrish! A propulsive, twisty wild ride; a bit far fetched but definitely satisfying! A great summer read!

WOW, this was a great thriller! I loved the first book so i was highly anticipating this release and it did not disappoint. Liv Constantine’s writing really shines through in this book. The twists and turns really got me and I’m someone who rarely gets shocked by twists in other books! Great installment for this series!! Pick this up on release day!!

I appreciate the opportunity to read this early copy - thank you!
I read “The Last Mrs. Parrish” a couple years ago, and appreciated the memory refresh that this book included. While I really enjoyed TLMP, this one unfortunately didn’t deliver.
The dialogue felt clunky and awkward at times, with long repetitive internal monologues. Daisy Ann’s frequent use of cheesy stereotypical southern sayings (“this ain’t my first rodeo,” “now hold your horses,” etc.) was cringey and forced.
I’m able to overlook some plot holes or character inconsistencies for the sake of the thrill or pacing, but there were just far too many in this one.

I always wondered what happened to Amber in The Last Mrs. Parrish, and this book gave me all the juicy details I needed! I Love every minute of this book. I was hooked on the first page! Thank you for a copy of this book! Wonderful, just wonderful!

WOW…Holy Shit…
I’m steel reeling from this book!
I was beyond excited to get to read this book thru NetGalley. The last Mrs Parrish is one of my top 3 my favorite books, and this one is just as good!
I hate that most of the time in books I can see things coming.. I promise you, you won’t see these things coming! I spent a good amount of time picking my jaw up off of the floor while reading this book. So many twists and turns! I enjoyed getting to know new characters as well. I’m scared to say too much in fear of spoiling anything for future reader’s BUT I will say you HAVE to read this book!!!

I was excited to see where The Next Mrs. Parrish would take us after the twisty, turning, completely entertaining The Other Mrs. Parrish left us. The Other Mrs. Parrish knocked it out of the park for me and checked all of my domestic thriller novel boxes. The Next Mrs. Parrish did not disappoint. Amber and Jackson continue to remain characters that you love to hate and the addition of Daisy Ann added a new layer that kept the story fresh while we got some backstory that was only alluded to in the first book. This one is a must read for lovers of a solid domestic thriller.

Stressful, messy and entertaining. Thank you to NetGalley and Random House for early access to this book! i had trouble keeping track of the messy details but still was a fun read

I had high hopes for this sequel after thoroughly enjoying 'The Last Mrs. Parrish,' but unfortunately, it was quite a letdown. The pacing felt off, and the interactions and connections between characters were unconvincing and downright cringey at times. Despite some promising early reviews that convinced me to keep reading, in my opinion, the book never improved.. It seems this was a rushed follow-up catering to TikTok demand rather than quality. Although this book wasn't to my liking, I'm open to reading future works by the author, hoping they are more inspired and less influenced by fan fare.

This book did not disappoint. It picked up right where the previous book The Last Mrs. Parrish left off. This book is told in three different POV with a surprise POV from a different character at the end. I enjoyed seeing the different perspectives and storyline's; however, at times the book didn’t flow. This was a good read but I highly recommend reading the prequel first so you can understand what is going on in this book. Based on the ending it definitely opens up the possibility for another book.

Three words: I LOVED IT! The authors never let me down. We find that Jackson and Amber, the couple who deserve each other, are still married. And that's because Jackson has spent most of the time in jail. When Jerky Jackson is released, he wants evil Amber out of the picture. He makes a deal with Amber to help him get Daphne back. He has some strange ideas on putting his plan into action. Naturally, I was rooting for Daphne throughout the pages and at times, I was frustrated with how clueless she could be. Daisy Ann was a welcome addition, and I loved her storyline. I predict that this will be THE book of the Summer.

Liv Constantine books NEVER disappoint. I was so excited to get approved for this one!
I loved the Last Mrs. Parrish and this one was even better in my opinion. I devoured this gem.

The story moves quickly from the beginning and throughout, there are so many twists & turns that keep you engaged. Great characters & an incredible ending made this a 5 star read for me.

Thank you to NetGalley & Random House Publishing Group Ballantine.
