Back Cover: Jealous whispers. Old rivalries. New betrayals.
Two months after Elizabeth Holland's dramatic homecoming, Manhattan eagerly awaits her return to the pinnacle of society. When Elizabeth refuses to rejoin her sister Diana's side, however, those watching New York's favorite family begin to suspect that all is not as it seems behind the stately doors of No. 17 Gramercy Park South.
Farther uptown, Henry and Penelope Schoonmaker are the city's most celebrated couple. But despite the glittering diamond ring on Penelope's finger, the newlyweds share little more than scorn for each other. And while the newspapers call Penelope's social-climbing best friend, Carolina Broad, an heiress, her fortune - and her fame - are anything but secure, especially now that one of society's darlings is slipping tales to the eager press.
In this next thrilling installment of Anna Godbersen's bestselling Luxe series, Manhattan's most envied residents appear to have everything they desire: Wealth. Beauty. Happiness. But sometimes the most practiced smiles hide the most scandalous secrets. . . .

Elizabeth and Diana are back with new scandals and broken hearts still mending. The characters are now dealing with the the consequences their past actions have caused them. I've begun to rally for the one's I was against in the beginning of the series.
On the other hand - Envy did not keep me glued to the pages as Luxe & Rumors did. The book tends to drag in some places and moves at a slow pace. The cliff hanger is enough to make me read Splendor. So I'll hope for the best and cross my fingers!
