Before long, Amber is Daphne’s closest confidante, traveling to Europe with the Parrishes and their lovely young daughters, and growing closer to Jackson. Amber uses Daphne’s compassion and caring to insinuate herself into the family’s life-the first step in a meticulous scheme to undermine her. To everyone in the exclusive town of Bishops Harbor, Connecticut, Daphne-a socialite and philanthropist-and her real-estate mogul husband, Jackson, are a couple straight out of a fairy tale.Īmber’s envy could eat her alive.

She deserves more-a life of money and power like the one blond-haired, blue-eyed goddess Daphne Parrish takes for granted. She’s tired of being a nobody: a plain, invisible woman who blends into the background. Some women get everything they deserve.Īmber Patterson is fed up. PARRISH for crime readers, but I also would never deny that there is something very entertaining about this book-it’s just not quite the shocking thriller it’s billed to be. Is it dark romance? Psychological suspense? Contemporary fiction? This genre-bending wouldn't be an issue, aside from the fact that I've seen this book largely promoted as a 'twisty psychological thriller'. PARRISH won’t work for crime readers looking for dark, twisty psychological suspense on the other hand, this book does still tackle themes that might be too dark for readers looking to enjoy a work of women’s fiction. While undeniably entertaining and fast-paced, THE LAST MRS. Unfortunately, my experience reading this book didn’t quite live up to how enamored I was with its cover. PARRISH by Liv Constantine is a prime example.

Try as I might not to judge a book by its cover, some are just too pretty to resist-THE LAST MRS. The Verdict: entertaining, but perhaps not suited for crime readers
