“ Beware A Woman Scorned"
"Be careful what you wish for" and "beware a woman scorned" have been played out in excellent fashion in this debut novel. Compulsively readable and twisty enough to hold the interest.

The Last Mrs. Parrish
Great premise. Oh, what the harlot will do. Oh, what the wife will do. Oh, what the husband will do between the two!
a MUST read!

I loved this book, well I didn't at first. I guess that was the point. I had a lot of emotion toward the characters. I hated, felt sorry, was disgusted, excited, in all the right places. I listened on Audible over a long weekend drive. I highly recommend it!

The Last Mrs. Parrish
The writer had a good imagination cause to start like this was brilliant. Liv started the story plot in a gym. I was impressed by this. With the main character name Amber trying to be coy by going to this gym every day to get a work out. She finally score by getting her way with her prey which was Daphne Parrish.

However I will begin with my first writer's err here: " "You're reading is magazine?" the woman said" this line was bad it should be you're reading this magazine? or you only read magazines? There is no doubt that phrases must be used correctly or grammar will remain poor.

No doubt the writer has a good knowledge of writing skills and I was more than impressed. But why did the writer used this line knowing well that the conversations she had with Daphne Parrish was not over as yet at the coffee shop. This was the line:" Later that evening Amber lay in a bubble bath, sipping a glass of merlot " This was a err I believe the writer made as the next paragraphs had all the conversation laid out with both persons.

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 Parrishes and their lovely young daughters, and growing closer to Jackson. But a skeleton from her past may undermine everything that Amber has worked towards. Great writing i supposed and I recommend this book to book lovers.

With shocking turns and dark secrets that will keep you guessing until the very end. This was a summary i used but i didn't have to guess the end as it was obvious. I wont tell you, you got to read yourself.
