The Making of Jackson Parrish

A Parrish Prequel

By: Liv Constantine

Narrated by: Ari Fliakos, Suzanne Elise Freeman, Scott Brick

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Next Mrs. Parrish comes a gripping, original audiobook set in the intoxicating world of the Parrish universe—The Making of Jackson Parrish.

Every villain has an origin story, and Jackson Parrish is no exception. A single scandalous act severs his fragile relationship with his disapproving father and costs him his place in the family empire. Jackson’s devoted mother sends him to Greece, hoping that time and distance will heal old wounds and open the door to reconciliation.

In Greece, Jackson is swept into the orbit of Stavros Demaris, a powerful and magnetic figure who opens the door to a world of wealth, power, and excess. From Malta to Mykonos, Jackson begins to reinvent himself, but the cost of ambition is steeper than he imagined.

Set against a lush Mediterranean backdrop of glittering seas and decadent indulgence, the Making of Jackson Parrish is a riveting exploration of how charm, cunning, and calculated ambition transformed a young man into a formidable master of power and persuasion, and a seductive glimpse into the high-stakes world he mastered to get there.

Making Jackson

Love, love, loved it!!! Love this series. The narrators were great! l especially love Suzanne Elise Freeman. Everything she narrates. Next we need to know what happened between here and Jackson meeting Daphne. I will be anxiously waiting!

A Riveting Tale set in Mykonos Island Greece

Omg! If you have not read this one you need to! I loved this book for two reasons. 1. We finally get a chance to see what makes Jackson Parrish tick and understand how he turned out the way he did. 2. The story was absolutely riveting. Set in Mykonos Island, it kept me and my family hooked. I don’t want to spoil it for you, so go read it. I give it 5 stars.

Also Liv Constantine can we get a part 2 to this? I want to know more about how Jackson’s mom came to connnect with Tina and how Tina knows Stavros.

Very dark characters who combine to create chaos for everyone in their midst.

I loved the ending when they seemed to get their just desserts. In fact, I re listened to the first prequel a second time …

Terrible narration and an unexciting story

There are so many more male narrators they could’ve used, it seems they picked the worst one. I understand it’s a male perspective and you should have a male narrator, but he was terrible. It was like he was trying too hard. You could hear it in his voice. It was just awful. I almost stopped this book many times. I also thought the story was blah-especially after the last Mrs. Parish and the next Mrs. Parish. It was like it was just written for the money. Sorry, but that’s what it seems like. Really disappointed

Another layer to the Parrish saga

The Making of Jackson Parrish by Liv Constantine adds another layer to the “Parrish” saga. An Audible original that runs a short 3 1/2 hours shows but reveals much about the narcissistic Jackson.

After yet again, disappointing, his father with his antics, his mother shuffle him off to Greece for a cooling off period. Once there he becomes acquainted with. Stavros Demaris a wealthy Greek entrepreneur who lost his only son. Jackson season opportunity to become the “son“ that the Greek lost.

Sleeping with Demaris’ lawyers wife he’s not one of Jackson’s smarter moves. When Sophia ask Jackson to take her and her son to America, he realizes he must end the affair. Tragic consequences result from Jackson’s actions with the woman and his interference in his employers business dealings.

I enjoyed this book and it gave us a lot of insight into Jackson explaining many of his actions in the future.
