Splendor by Anna Godbersen


New York, 1900. We are back in the scene of the most
whealthy families of New York; The Holland's and the Schoonmakers.
Elizabeth Holland is married to Snowden, after her beloved Will tragically was shot at Grand Central Station after Elizabeth and Will had run off to California. Elizabeth is carrying Wills baby, and soon she discovers a dark secret about Wills death..
Diana Holland and Henry Schoonmaker are secretly in love.
Secretly, because Henry is married to Penelope Hayes.
They make plans to escape to Paris together and become a happy couple there, without the stares and rumours they have to endure when they will stay in New York.
Penelope meets the Prince of Bavaria at a ball, and a secret romance seem to be born..
Carolina is still a rising star in the society circles. When a former lover of her appears and blackmails her, white lies and secrets leak out to her present lover. And he is not amused about this..
Splendor is the final book in the Luxe novels by Anna Godbersen. The final book is just even amazing as the previous four novels, be surprised by some amazing plot developments and unfoldings. I am really sad that this brilliant book series has ended. It certainly is the most elegant ya series ever, it beats Gossip Girl in every way. Splendor really fullfills all the expectations I had about it, it was even more fabulous than I imagined. If there is a series I recommend to everyone, it certainly is the Luxe. Be dazzled by all the lovely dresses and new york glitz for the very last time..
