The Next Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine
1.0
I don't have too much to say about this one outside of, not every thing needs a sequel. This was just bad. From beginning to end the only comment I had to myself was who was this for exactly? The first book ended perfectly with Daphne Parrish (the first Mrs. Parrish) getting away clean from her ex-husband and his new terrible wife. This sequel had so many ridiculous side plots that I just got fed up. And with how this second one ended, I have a bad feeling that Liv Constantine are gearing up for a third book.
Real quick, Mr. Parrish is getting ready to get out of the federal prison he went to in the last book because white collar criminals are hilarious I guess. He and his new wife, Amber hate each other. Amber has been given a few months reprieve but being low on funds and not ready to be one of the poors, she discovers that her husband is hiding something that she takes advantage of and per usual they just scream at each other. In the end, Amber agrees to help him get back what he really wants, Daphne. Daphne Parrish decides to return because her oldest daughter (who sucks) keeps running away to get back to her awesome father. Daphne ignores her mother, therapist, best friend, and common sense and returns. The book follows Daphne, Amber, and a new player, who I will call Player 3 because her whole story was not needed for this book and could have been cut.
The plot was absurd, the flow was awful, and it just kept going on and on. And I had real problems with Daphne hiding/lying from her daughters about what went on with her and their father.
The whole book felt like a ridiculous stretch and it just felt like it was some big build-up to have another ending that would have you go, oh are the very spoiled finally vanquished? The first book ended perfectly and if there is a third book in this series, I am hard passing.
