The Perfect Parents
Jackson and Lydia Hemsworth are pillars of the community, feted for having the perfect marriage and three wonderful children – Florence, Jessica and Ezra.
But appearances can be deceptive.
Because behind closed doors Jackson Hemsworth rules his family with cruelty and control. His marriage is a sham; his children for years have cowed in fear.
Until the day that Jackson and Lydia throw themselves off Newport Bridge in a joint suicide pact – the final cruel blow by Jackson to control his wife and torture his adult children.
As the Hemsworth siblings return to their family home, they must try to make sense of their parents’ last act. But there are many dark secrets waiting to be unearthed at Armett House.
Like, why are the townsfolk so suddenly hostile towards them? And who are the strangers who arrive at Armett House unannounced? And why has their mother’s body still not been found?
In the aftermath of their parents’ death, it becomes clear that something terrible is about to be exposed about the Hemsworths’ perfect parents.
A secret they may all wish had stayed hidden…

Review By Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews
First, I want to thank J.A. Baker, Boldwood Books, NetGalley and Rachel’s Random Resources for providing me with this book so I may bring you this review.
WOW!!! My mind was blown right off the bat with J.A. Baker’s The Perfect Parents. Oh they were not perfect by any means! This is a fast paced, gripping, twisted, shocking read!
One thing is for sure J.A. Baker is amazing with her eye for details, descriptions and characters' emotions. Some scenes I felt as if I were there!
J.A.’s prologue was jaw dropping, mind blowing, twisted and dark!! She grabs your attention hard and runs with the story! I could not believe this was how the story was going to start out. It was at this point in time I questioned the title of the book. However, it was the perfect hook for the story!
My heart broke originally for the adult children who lost both of their parents tragically. I had so many questions as to why and what was so bad that this was the only solution?! There were so many deep dark secrets, twists, turns, and jaw dropping moments in this book.
