Trusting his family was her first mistake.
All Ria ever wanted was a family. Growing up alone in foster care, she imagined just how it would be. So when she fell in love with Grayson and had their daughter Shelley, she was determined to make his family love her too. She knew she’d never fit in with her glamorous sisters-in-law, or at the exclusive picture-perfect Chicago parties her mother-in-law threw, but with Grayson’s arm around her waist she tried her best to be a Parker.
Everything changed when Grayson disappeared.
Until one morning, Grayson leaves the house for work and never comes home. Left to raise Shelley alone, Ria is forced to turn to her husband’s family, to let her intimidating mother-in-law into her life, allow her to babysit Shelley, and accept her financial support. She tries to ignore the feeling that her sisters-in-law never thought she was good enough. They say they have no idea what happened to Grayson, and she tries very hard to believe them.
But Ria is about to learn that every Parker wife has secrets.
And protecting her daughter might come at a terrible price…
Utterly compelling, The Last Wife is an emotionally-charged novel about what one woman will do to survive. Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Kerry Fisher and The Other Woman.

The Last Wife
By Nicola Marsh
Review by Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank Nicola Marsh, Bookouture, and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
Nicola Marsh is back again with another must read book! I instantly became a fan of hers after reading The Scandal. I thought that book was amazing until she exceeded my expectations with this book! This book had more drama than a soap opera! It was packed with so many stories involved with lots of secrets! Secrets that if got out could ruin a lot of relationships! This book was so juicy and one you want to gossip to a friend about after.
Kudos to the graphic designer who designed the cover as it is gorges! Nicola’s covers are always spot on to her books!
Nicola is an incredible storyteller with so many different stories within the main story. Each of them just sucked you more into the story!
The Last Wife is full of lies, infidelity, teenage alcoholism, lots of secrets, blackmail, etc.
One of my favorite parts of the book was when Ria gets into bed with her daughter Shelly and reads. I love that mother and daughter bonding time. This book has a lot to do with family.
I love when an author thinks outside the box for their names of the characters. Nicola picked some that I loved! Ria, Trent, Ashlin, Grayson, etc.
I thought it was extremely interesting how she came up with the idea of this novel. She was at a birthday party with kids playing. One of the parents had a very unique occupation as hacker/penetration tester. She had conversations about that subject. It made her wonder. She is fascinated how mismatched people who are forced to socialize in the name of family.
Nicola would love to thank Kim Nash and Noelle Holton who are PR whizzes at Bookouture. Your passion for books are unanswering and it makes eternally grateful that she has you to champion my books too.
