The Best Worst Mistake by Lily Parker (July 2, 2025) Many thanks to the author for the gifted advanced digital copy!
When Abby runs into Dax at an NYC coffee shop, she hasn’t seen her former law school classmate (and frequent hookup) in years. Dax asks her to dinner, but Abby is more interested in a no-strings-attached for old-time sake. With him in LA and her in NYC, there couldn’t possibly be more. But when Abby finds herself sent to LA on an assignment that could clinch her promotion to partner, she’s surprised to find that Dax and his firm are representing the opposing side. Now, with weeks in front of them, their best option is to keep things professional. But neither can stop thinking about that night in NYC months ago. Can Abby overcome her childhood trauma and find herself worthy of the love Dax wants to give? Can they navigate a career-making negotiation without either of their jobs taking a hit?
I devoured Lily Parker’s debut, The Best Wrong Move, earlier this summer and immediately messaged her asking if I could be an arc reader for book two – Abby and Dax did not disappoint! Lily nails the perfect blend of heartfelt growth, swoony chemistry, and emotional authenticity. I especially loved the continued focus on the beautiful, deep friendship between Abby and Liv (the FMC from book one). Their cross-country support system is everything: raw, honest, and exactly what every woman deserves in a best friend.he story. For anyone who has a best friend you love like a sister, you’ll find their bond deeply relatable. I’m already anxiously awaiting the third book in the series. The MMC of Book 3 was set up so perfectly in this book that it leaves readers wanting to know more about him.
