Amber's life is not at all what she wanted it to be. She
wanted the man of her dreams, a wealthy man so that she
would be the lady of the house. Amber sets her sight on
Jackson; the fact that he is married to Daphne is not going
to stop her.
Amber puts her plan into motion; she plants herself into
Daphne and Jackson's lives. Amber researches them to find
out what secrets she can use. Daphne feels sorry for Amber
after Amber tells her that her sister died from the same
disease as Daphne's sister. Of course, this is nothing but
a lie, but it opens the door for her to move into their
lives. Soon Amber is spending all her time with this
family. The two children really don't like her, but they
are told to be polite to her.
Amber's next big lie is that she had quit her job, stating
that her boss was sexually harassing her. Just another lie
out of her mouth, but Daphne believed it. Daphne talks
Jackson into hiring Amber at his company. Once Amber gets
her foot in the door, she does what she has to to make his
assistant quit. After that, she is almost home free. Now,
the final plan is to get him into bed. Daphne, on the other
hand, has some secrets that she doesn't want to come out.
Liv Constantine's book is great suspense. I never saw most
of the twists coming. Ms. Constantine knows how to grab your
attention and keep it through the whole book. I started THE
LAST MRS PARRISH one day and finished it the next. After I
was done, I hated the fact that I read it so fast. That is
how great this book is. THE LAST MRS PARRISH has twists and
turns you won't believe. The story line has mystery, romance
if that's what you want to call it. Constantine makes you
realize that the romance in this book is really not that at
all. Buy it you will love it.
A mesmerizing debut psychological thriller full of
delicious twists about a coolly manipulative woman who
worms her way into the lives of a wealthy "golden couple"
from Connecticut to achieve the privileged life she
wants.
Some women get everything. Some women get everything they
deserve.
Amber Patterson is fed up. She’s tired of being a nobody:
a plain, invisible woman who blends into the background.
She deserves more—a life of money and power like the one
blond-haired, blue-eyed goddess Daphne Parrish takes for
granted. To everyone in the exclusive town of Bishops
Harbor, Connecticut, Daphne and her husband, Jackson—the
beautiful philanthropist and the confident real estate
mogul—are a golden couple straight out of a fairytale,
blessed with two lovely young daughters.
Amber’s envy could eat her alive . . . if she didn't have
a plan. 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. Before long,
Amber is Daphne’s closest confidante, traveling to Europe
with the Parrish family, and growing closer to Jackson.
But a skeleton from her past may undermine everything
that Amber has worked towards, and if it is discovered,
her well-laid plan may fall to pieces.
With shocking turns and dark secrets that will keep you
guessing until the very end, The Last Mrs. Parrish is a
fresh, juicy, and utterly addictive thriller from a
diabolically imaginative talent.
