The Next Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine
4.0
Amber has come a long way from being an invisible wallflower with her hard work bringing her up to a prominent socialite status. That doesn’t mean that there haven’t been bumps along the way. Her husband, Jackson, is in prison after a tax-evasion scandal so Amber has been free to do as she wishes in the meantime, but Jackson will soon be released from prison. Daphne has left Bishops Harbor and swears she will never go back. When one of her daughters runs away from home to be able to see her father, Jackson, Daphne agrees to return to Bishops Harbor for the summer. When a ghost from Amber’s past emerges looking for revenge, the three find unlikely allies in one another, but who is playing who?
When I saw that there was a sequel coming for The Last Mrs Parrish, I wasn’t convinced that I needed to read it. THE NEXT MRS PARISH certainly disproves that. I absolutely loved it.
THE NEXT MRS PARRISH is told in multiple POV: Daphne, Amber, Daisy Anne, and Jackson. I listened to this as an audiobook and loved that there was a narrator for each POV – so well done 👏🏻.
All of the characters are cunning, toxic, and not all are very likable. They each are holding back secrets while keeping an eye on number one (themselves). The multiple POV gives the added bonus of not knowing who is playing whom.
The plot is a wild one with many twists and turns that I didn’t see coming. There was even a twist that had me holding my breath as I waited to hear what the outcome would be. The writing style is smart and easy to follow with great pacing. Honestly, I think I liked this one more than the first book.
The ending is fantastic and satisfying… although I definitely need a third book. I am so hopeful that that is in the works!
