Good god what a book and a half this is.

So basically amber wants the life of daphne, she has a beautiful home, husband, money and the life amber thinks she deserves. So amber goes out to get it....

The book is in 3 parts Amber, Daphne and then a 3rd part which in my opinion is the best part...!

I hated Amber and thought Daphne needed a ticket up her backside half the time however it all comes out in the wash so they say, and it did.

This book had me gripped and I seriously couldn’t put it down, I had to find out what happened next and begrudged feeding my kids as it took me away from my kindle! It’s seeiously full of twists and turns at one point I’m like omg, no, hang on a minute and had to go back and actually re-read it again!

It’s an absolute corker and I honestly can’t wait to read more from the author, I’d give it 10 stars if I could,

One of my favourite books of the year, a fantastic psychological thriller that i just couldn't put down. Brilliant strong characters, amazing plot twists and a brilliant ending. hoping for more form these two sisters,, they make a fantastic writing team!

This was a great read. I found it hard to put this book down. Daphne (Mrs Parrish) has the sort of life women wish for, married to a very charasmatic, charming, handsome, rich man. Amber on the other hand has nothing. The two quickly become friends and as the story progresses you realise how manuipulative Amber is. I do not do spoilers but will say that this book is a must. It drew me in so deep I almost felt part of it.
I would hightly recommend this book, it is a fantastically written, brilliant piece of ficton.

Totally engrossing I thoroughly enjoyed this book from beginning to end in fact I didn’t want it to end!

Great book, great twist and always good to see that people get what's coming to them.

Be careful what you wish for!! This is one of those books. that once you start, it is very very difficult to put down.
Not so much a psychological thriller, but certainly a fascinating psychological profile of a sociopath. This was a gripping tale with many twists and turns and a totally unexpected ending..

I requested this title from Netgalley based on the description and in return for an honest review. It’s American and when I realised that the author, Liv Constantine was in fact two sisters, I was tempted not to begin reading. Multiple authors frequently mean a piece constructed between them purely for the market. I’m also getting tired of “psychological thrillers”. I should have followed my first instinct. The book tended to plod along on leaden feet. Several times I decided to give up, but having asked for it I preserved. Most of the story is told through Amber who is working the con and latterly by Deborah, the wronged wife. It takes place in the world of the super rich outside New York City. The authors have assumed that this is a world that their readers will enjoy reading about. I don’t feel that human emotions are adequately conveyed and descriptions of scenery and events are fairly basic, This tale lacks depth. Nothing fires the imagination. There are no likable characters in this book, all being selfish and manipulating. It’s a tale of human greed which I failed to enjoy.

This is an absolutely wickedly delicious book. Full five stars rating for this one. The story is addictive from the start. The writing flows naturally and effortlessly. Amber, the home wrecker, is out to steal Mr. Parrish, Daphne's husband. The first major part is Amber's point of view, the second is Daphne's point of view. It has a very satisfying ending.

A complicated,twisted thriller. Strong female character who overcomes much to win in the end.

I was looking forward to this book, as I thought it might appeal to fans of relationship thrillers like those by Gillian Flynn and Paula Hawkins. Sadly, I was disappointed - although there was a good twist, I found the book to be formulaic and derivative of other books of this genre.

I can't believe this is a debut novel - it is fantastic! The story starts by immediately launching into the objective of Amber - a manipulative, deceitful young woman who wants the life of the lovely, lucky Daphne with her perfect marriage and family. So cleverly written, easy to read and fast paced. At one point you think you know where this is going and how can there still be a good portion of book left - well woah hold on as this is where it spins to a glorious, shocking new direction. A most glorious, satisfying ending.

I was flabbergasted by this book. It was thrilling, gripping, with huge twists and turns I didn't see coming. I absolutely adored it, and it's the best book I've read this year so far. Highly recommend this!!

A guilty pleasure of a read....but one that you can indulge in!!!! Amber has a mission to steal Daphne’s wealthy husband and this is that story.....the Parrish family are very wealthy so expect to feel sickened and jealous by the lavish displays of money! Would recommend for the Jackie Collins type fans!

This was a fun, easy read. Not another Gone Girl because the twist is predictable, but still got me involved enough with the characters to feel I had skin in the game. I wanted more punishment than i got for the main villains, but all in all it was a satisfying ending and the psycopathy was grimly engaging!

I was worried about how this book would turn out after the first change of point of view. However I was really pleasantly surprised by the different twist s and turns of this thriller

Written by sisters under the pen name of Liv Constantine, The Last Mrs Parrish is a book of 3 parts.

The first part of this novel is focused around Amber Patterson, a young woman who becomes obsessed with the life of Daphne Parrish, the rich wife of millionaire businessman Jackson Parrish. Amber, with a whole closet full of skeletons behind her, becomes increasingly envious of the woman who has everything she wants in life, and begins to insinuate herself into her world – with the end goal of infiltrating Jackson’s marriage and taking Daphne’s place in it. Home-wrecker doesn’t even cover it. Neither does Psycho.

Following an orchestrated ‘chance’ meeting at the gym (these introductions always seem to happen at gyms – beware!) big hearted Daphne takes a big-sisterly shine to Amber after discovering that they apparently have something very sad in common – the tragic death of their respective sisters due to Cystic Fibrosis. Daphne set up a foundation in memory of her sister, and Amber very quickly gets a place on the committee, much to the concern of some of Daphne’s friends. The two become close very quickly, and after pretending that she has to leave her job as her boss has sexually harassed her, Daphne finds Amber a new job as – you guessed it – her husband Jackson’s new assistant.

Amber’s plan goes into full swing and she lets us in on when she’s planning. If she gets her way, Daphne will be out on her ear and Amber will be the new Mrs Parrish, beaming on Jackson’s arm. Set up for life.

It’s around this point that we switch to part 2 – Daphne’s story, where the scene has been cleverly set and it’s no surprise to discover that all may not be exactly as it seems. After all, who has the perfect life?

Finally, we get to part 3, which switches between Amber and Daphne, where they are now, as events take over and there is a real sense of being careful what you wish for in case you get what you deserve.

There are only 3 characters in this book, apart from a few bit players, but they are all that are needed to convey the all encompassing envy that pours from Amber, and the claustrophobic closeness of Daphne and Jackson. There are some scenes of graphic physical and psychological violence, and in my opinion, a few too many explicit scenes – we already know Amber is using her sexuality to get to Jackson, and I feel this was a little overplayed, but perhaps that is to make us understand the baseness of her character – less love and emotion involved, more ruthless ambition.

The very last chapter felt a bit Scooby-Doo for me. Would work in a film where everything has to be shown in visuals, but in a book, you just wouldn’t do what Daphne did. If you burn a house down, you go away and wait to hear that it’s happened, rather than stand on the sidelines ,watching, with a can of gasoline in your hand.

Apart from that I found this to be quite a riveting read. Amber is just a horrid creature, but manages to stay on the realistic side of nasty and narcissistic, rather than Disney villain evil. Daphne is a very cleverly written character that you can’t help but root for, whether or not you see her as a downtrodden victim of a homewrecker, or something different. If you like a really good psychological thriller that at times makes you want to scream in frustration to warn characters what’s about to happen, then this book is for you!

Amber is a lady who is tired of being ignored. She comes from a poor background and is determined to get rich and be seen as a force to be reckoned with...no matter who she has to screw over to reach her goal.

She plans an encounter with the very rich Daphne Parrish and concocts a friendship with her goal being to seduce the super rich Jackson Parrish and make sure she becomes his bride.

I have to say this book was a real thrill. I love how it was split into 2 POV’s in Amber and Daphne, it really kept the book from becoming stale. The layers of Daphne’s marriage are peeled back like an onion, each layer becoming more twisted and engrossing than the last.

I really liked Daphne and felt for her, and although you thought her children precocious at first, you realise the dark meaning behind some of the behavioural problems.

Amber was a vicious little minx. Determined and utterly led by her devious ambitions, I disliked her intensely!

The storyline does become a little far fetched, but even in this I enjoyed how underhanded both women became to achieve their goals.

This book is dark, twisty, over the top and indulgent and I loved it.

I cannot wait to see what these sister authors come up with next!

I would like to thank Netgalley and Harper Collins for an ARC of this book in exchange for a review.

This multiple character viewpoint novel is utterly brilliant! For the first part of the book I feel a little disappointed despite the book being well written...because it all seemed 'too easy'. Then the character viewpoint switched and I understood why. Really impressed by the unexpected twist. If this book was a movie I would have watched it from behind my fingers - utterly compelling and disturbing.

Amber Patterson watches Daphne Parrish in the gym everyday. Some might say she wants to be Daphne Parrish, or that she wants Daphne Parrish's life. Whilst both of those things may be true, Amber wants not to be Daphne Parrish, per see, but she definitely wants to be Mrs. Parrish.

Amber wants Daphne's husband, Jackson Parrish, and she won't stop until she gets him.

Amber is clever, comes across a sweet girl, perhaps a little naive. She ingrains herself into the Parrish's life quickly, becoming best friend and confidant to Daphne, and a welcome distraction for Jackson.

She assists Daphne with the daily running of her charity and ensures that she is the only "friend" Daphne can truly rely on. Amber is no friend to Daphne...

With her sights firmly set on Jackson she goes out of her way to make him notice her, but so subtly that no one around them notices.

Soon enough the pair are embarking on an affair, but Amber knows she must be careful if she is to truly ensnare Jackson in the tangled web she weaves.

But Daphne Parrish is no fool, and she won't be taken by one for anybody. Amber may well have underestimated her rival, but is it too late for Daphne to save her marriage? And does she even want to?

Split into Daphne's and Amber's perspectives, the last Mrs. Parrish is a novel that will have you taking a sharp intake of breath at a certain point, because no matter what you thought was going to happen... you will still be suprised!

What a gripping thrilling read! This is certainly an addictive read, so much so I read late into the night to finish it. I had no idea as to what the outcome would be. A brilliant twist .
