By Liv Constantine

Greed and domestic violence are the central points in Liv Constantine’s The Last Mrs. Parrish. The story tells the lives of two women who are at the opposite ends. One seems to have it all and the other has nothing.

Amber, whose real name was Lana Grump, pitied her life- a life that came from nothing, schemed up a plan to get close to Jackson Parrish to seduce him. Amber befriended his wife, Daphne Parrish. Slowly, Amber infiltrated the Parrish’s lives and established a place in the family.

As Amber tried to get close to Jackson Parrish, Daphne tried to get far away from him. Daphne was suffering from the abuse of Jackson’s controlling behavior. Daphne was coming up with her own scheme.

Two women, two plans. Both succeeded.

This is one of the most satisfying ending novels. The antagonists get what they deserved, and the protagonist broke free.

The book did have a slow warming to me. The book started about with Amber and her dirty scheme for one third of the book. I was rooting for the unknown protagonist and her avenge. But as the pages turned, I get a satisfying ending.

100% recommended!
