Thank you NetGalley for the ARC! I enjoyed this book. Quick read. It was kinda intense but slightly predictable.

A wonderful read!
This novel drew me in from the very first page and kept me hooked until the end. The characters were vibrant and relatable, the writing was engaging, and the story had just the right balance of heart and humor. Highly recommend!
Many thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for my ARC. All opinions are my own.

The Last Mrs. Sinclair is everything you want in a summer thriller glitzy, dark, and absolutely addictive. T.J. Emerson masterfully pulls you into a world of wealth, secrets, and lies, where nothing is quite what it seems. From the first chapter, the tension is palpable, and it only tightens as the story unfolds.

The characters are sharply drawn, with just enough glamour and danger to keep you second-guessing their every move. Emerson does a brilliant job balancing slow-burn suspense with jaw-dropping twists, and just when you think you’ve figured it out, the story takes another sharp, satisfying turn.

The idea of finding love the second time is enticing, but it’s not always as easy as it might be!
The characters are multi-layered with secrets, the suspense is ‘what really happened’ and the reasons why people are still watching and wondering!
This story is filled with mystery and an unexpected background, Leah is hopeful for her future with Miles, but there are questions around his first wife Riley.
The suspicions build slowly and at times there’s a bit too much explanation, the side characters also were a bit hard to relate to.
A bit quirky with lots of layers to unpack but the story will keep you guessing.

Thanks to the publisher, NetGalley and the author for the opportunity to read and review this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A very enjoyable read, if a slightly implausible plot. It certainly kept me moving on through the book, which is something I always look for. Some books are just too ponderous to be read. Life is too short as they say.
I felt this book had a good balance of mystery, deceit and location.
Very good.

3.5 ⭐️ The Last Mrs. Parrish is a fun, fast-paced, psychological thriller. There were some big plot twists, some surprising and others predictible. I would recommend The Last Mrs. Parrish for other fans of psychological thrillers. Thank you Goldwood Books and Netgalley for the opportunity to read an arc copy of The Last Mrs Parrish.

Leah and Miles meet in a seemingly extraordinary way. His wife took a tumble off a building and she is cruising the nice places and their clientele hoping to meet somebody who likes the finer things in life.
What really happened to the former Mrs Sinclair? She is a lot younger than he is...
The big reveal is shocking and unconventional. Throughout the book, there is a mysterious sense of danger and some people are living outside the expected conventions.
I really liked the book until the end section. Its revelations were hard to digest and left me thinking that these people deserved each other.
It reminded me of some gossipy novels that were savory reads, but hard to personally relate. I guess it takes all kinds to make a world.

Thanks to the author and publisher for a copy of the ARC.. All opinions and reactions are my own. Nevertheless, I couldn't stop reading.

I read a lot of thrillers, and this was unlike any that I've read! Thought this middle portion was a bit slow, but I needed to find out what happened. The epilogue was very interesting to me, and I feel like this lined the book up perfectly for a sequel! Thank you to Boldwood Books for the advanced copy!

This book gives me the same vibes as The Last Mrs. Parish or The Wife Stalker. A really interesting domestic thriller that draws you in from the beginning

The Last Mrs. Sinclair starts off feeling like it’s going to be a classic story about a gold digger chasing an older man for his money — but then the strings start to unravel, and things get real twisty, real fast. Just when you think you’ve figured it out, the plot shifts again. It’s a thriller that keeps you guessing all the way through. I flew through it. If you liked First Lie Wins, this one should definitely be on your list.

Gosh, The Last Mrs Sinclair completely reeled me in from the very beginningMoody, atmospheric, and dripping with an underlying tone of menace threaded throughout, this book was giving Rebecca vibes with a modern twist, and I’m here for it!!

Twenty-four-year-old Leah is on a mission: she wants a wealthy man who’ll spoil her and give her the luxurious life she dreams of. When she meets 54-year-old Miles Sinclair, he seems like the perfect catch, and when he invites her to stay at his chateau in France, Leah jumps at the chance. She thinks this could be the beginning of something wonderful, but things quickly take a darker turn.

This was my first read by this author, and I’m definitely going to be reading more of their work.

I’ll admit it—I’m a sucker for any story where the new woman steps into a fancy estate with just enough dark history to make things weird.

Leah knows what she wants—comfort, money, the kind of stability her childhood definitely didn’t give her—and she sees her shot with recently widowed Miles Sinclair. When he whisks her off to his dreamy chateau in the French countryside, it seems like she’s finally made it. Except… the dead wife looms large, his cousin Vivienne is clearly not a fan, and the whole place has that subtle “this house keeps secrets” vibe.

I stayed at an old estate in the French countryside once and even without a suspicious death (that I know of anyway) , it was giving haunted energy. So yeah, I was fully on board with this one. Twisty, tense, and just the right amount of eerie.

Thanks to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the ARC!

This was a new author for me and I will definitely be looking out for more of their books. This was a fast paced psychological thriller full of suspense, intrigue. secrets and lies.

Not sure what to say about this book. It's very well written but the characters are so awful it is really hard to care about them and what happens to them.
Thanks to Netgalley for this ARC in return for my honest review

After reading a previous book by this author I was intrigued to read this new one - and I was not disappointed.

Leah is looking for a life of luxury - luckily her new boyfriend Miles Sinclair can provide the lifestyle she is looking for, starting with spending the summer at his French chateau. But what really happened to the previous Mrs Sinclair?

A great read.

I really enjoyed this! This was a new writer for me and I will definitely be checking our their other books! Solid plot, fast pace, well-developed and flawed characters, good (if somewhat predictable) twists, and overall just well-written. Thank you so much for the ARC!

I really wanted to love The Last Mrs. Sinclair, especially because I received it as an ARC from NetGalley and was excited to dive into something new. But unfortunately, this one just didn’t work for me.

I typically fly through thrillers in a day or two, but this book took me forever to finish. The plot felt all over the place — jumping timelines, too many twists that didn’t feel earned, and characters I struggled to connect with. I found myself confused more often than intrigued, and by the time things started making sense, I had already checked out emotionally.

There were glimmers of a good story buried underneath it all, and I think with a tighter structure, it could have been a solid domestic thriller. But for me, it just missed the mark.

Twisty domestic psychological thriller, with touches of glamour and unlikeable characters.

Since being let down by her father, Leah has heeded her mother's advice to seek financial security, not love, in relationships. This is why she is sitting at a cocktail bar, wearing just the right clothes, jewellery and make up to attract the right sort of man.

She is about to leave when Miles arrives, still grieving for his wife, and she decides to stay and comfort him a little. The sex isn't earth shattering but it's passable and his wealth is a definite bonus.

It isn't until she goes with him to his château in France that she starts to unravel the secrets at the heart of his family, but by then is it too late to save herself?

Spicy (but not in a titillating way), 1st person dual point of view (Leah & Vivienne), contemporary mystery/thriller. I flew through this book! Full of characters you love to hate, twists & turns, and a great ending. This is a fast paced perfect length story. I'll be reading more from this author.

Such a good read I will be recommending to my book buddies causss this was an easy read and I kept wanting to know he did what
