Fairfield, CT - Authors Lynne and Valerie Constantine will be at the downtown Fairfield University Bookstore, 1499 Post Road, Fairfield, on Thursday, October 26, at 7:00pm to discuss their new novel, THE LAST MRS. PARRISH. This event is free and open to the public! Walk-ins welcome!
Amber Patterson is fed up. She’s tired of being a nobody: a plain, invisible woman who blends into the background. She deserves more—a life of money and power like the one blond-haired, blue-eyed goddess Daphne Parrish takes for granted. To everyone in the exclusive town of Bishops Harbor, Connecticut, Daphne and her husband, Jackson—the beautiful philanthropist and the confident real estate mogul—are a golden couple straight out of a fairytale, blessed with two lovely young daughters.
Amber’s envy could eat her alive…if she didn’t have a plan. Determined to step into Daphne’s shoes and become the next Mrs. Parrish, she’s figured a way to insert herself into this family’s life and has a meticulous scheme to undermine Daphne. Before long, she’s Daphne’s closest confidante, traveling to Europe with the Parrishes, and getting closer and closer to Jackson. But there’s a secret from her past that may undermine all that she’s worked towards, and if Daphne discovers it, then all may be lost.
“Liv Constantine’s THE LAST MRS. PARRISH is a beautifully constructed set piece, an intricate narrative that doubles back and folds in on itself like a Mobius strip, revealing secret upon secret, and layer upon layer, with a seductive ‘just one more chapter’ urgency that will keep readers up all night. Giving new meaning to the adage ‘be careful what you wish for,’ THE LAST MRS. PARRISH proves that the worst that can happen just might be when you get what you want. Addictive!” —Karen Dionne, author of The Marsh King’s Daughter
THE LAST MRS. PARRISH will be published in sixteen other countries (Spain, Brazil, Portugal, Poland, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Denmark, Holland, Germany, Hungary, Italy, The Czech Republic, Turkey, Korea, and France) as a major title in Harper Collins’ Publishing Program.
Liv Constantine is the pen name of sisters Lynne Constantine and Valerie Constantine. Separated by three states, they spend hours plotting via Skype and burning up each other’s emails. They attribute their ability to concoct dark story lines to the hours they spent listening to tales handed down by their Greek grandmother. They live in Connecticut and Maryland, respectively. They can be followed on Twitter @LivConstanteine2, and for more on their writing and speaking schedule, visit: http://livconstantine.com/.
