Envy, the third book in Anna Godbersen’s Luxe series, picks up just a couple of months after Book Two left off: Penelope has snagged Henry, Elizabeth is mourning the loss of the love of her life, and Diana’s determined to go on with her own life now that Henry’s unavailable. Mix in former maid Carolina, and several misunderstandings, and you’ve got the stage for intrigue, gossip, and backstabbing that makes this series so wonderful.

 Her characters still sit at the top of the world but are now living with the consequences of their choices. Hope for love and personal happiness is swiftly vanishing, along with the cash they all require to continue living their lavish lives. I rooted for Diana and Elizabeth to find happiness in their lives and I felt the anguish at their circumstances. There was so much deception by all the characters and they all eventually suffered the consequences of those deceptions and of their choices. Through the lies, secrets, and scandals, you just want to keep reading and reading!
