~*The Last Mrs. Parrish by Liv Constantine *~
4.5 Stars
Be careful what you wish for because you just might get it. Amber has a plan, a very set plan. She wants to be the next Mrs. Parrish and she will do whatever it takes to attain her goal, even if it means befriending the current Mrs. Parrish.One day at the gym Amber "accidentally" drops a magazine that covers the disease cystic fibrosis right in front of Daphne Parrish. Daphne runs a foundation for the families of children that have CF in honor of her dead sister Julie. Amber just so happens to have a dead sister who lost her life to CF as well. Of course since the part one of the book is told from Amber's POV we know that everything about Amber is a lie. Amber is a true psychopath, willing do anything and everything to get what she wants. We see each and every step of Amber's plan play out as Daphne slowly but surely loses her husband to the bewitching Amber.
The second part of the novel is told in first person from Daphne's POV and last but not least the story comes together in the end as we see the fall out from both women's actions.
I had wanted to read this book for a while so when the kindle version went on sale I went ahead and snapped it up! At first I was a little bit worried because the book did start off a bit slow but as the story started to develop it picked up quickly.
Though I did see the twists from a mile away the writing was well done and with Amber being such a vile character I was excited to see exactly what would come her way. Daphne is an extremely likable character whom you want to root for the whole time. Since we see both sides of the story you learn pretty quickly that nothing is ever the way it looks from the outside.
If you like a good psychological thriller with compelling characters then this book is definitely for you.
