Product Description from Amazon

After bidding good-bye to New York's brightest star, Elizabeth Holland, rumors continue to fly about her untimely demise.

All eyes are on those closest to the dearly departed: her mischievous sister, Diana, now the family's only hope for redemption; New York's most notorious cad, Henry Schoon-maker, the flame Elizabeth never extinguished; the seductive Penelope Hayes, poised to claim all that her best friend left behind—including Henry; even Elizabeth's scheming former maid, Lina Broud, who discovers that while money matters and breeding counts, gossip is the new currency.

As old friends become rivals, Manhattan's most dazzling socialites find their futures threatened by whispers from the past. In this delicious sequel to The Luxe, nothing is more dangerous than a scandal . . . or more precious than a secret.

This book is even better than the first. I just closed the back cover and I'm about to start reading the third book in The Luxe series, ENVY. I HAVE to know what happens next! I love the style in which these books are written. Anna Godbersen is a brilliant writer. She pays careful attention to every detail making the reader feel like she's right there.

I'm not at all surprised at Penelope and what she's done, but I am disappointed in Lina. And I cried for Elizabeth and Diana :( but I'm glad that Elizabeth has returned to NY and I can't wait to see how she's changed.
