Gatsby meets Gossip Girl in this stand-alone contemporary romance where secret society parties and the thrill of the unknown tempt fate.

You are cordially invited to the party of the century.

There's no greater thrill than in the moment a courier hands you the heavy invitation with those words etched on the front. Because you've just joined the most exclusive group in New York. The Bright Young Things.

Lavish parties. Irreverent treasure hunts. Every event is a sparkling spectacle, stalked not only by the media, but by the law, who's declared war. They're out to ruin everyone's good time, starting with uncovering the mysterious benefactor leading the group, thus answering the question on everyone's lips. Who is Cecelia Beaton?

And no one knows it's me. If society finds out the truth, my plans will unravel. And with one smoldering look from a stranger, my carefully ordered world catches fire.

Because he has secrets of his own, secrets that could bring down everything I've built. But even the best kept secrets have a way of getting out.

Secrets and lies. Love and laughter. And two people with something to hide and everything to gain. Welcome to the party.

This was entertaining for a one-time-listen, but I can only recommend it to people who do not mind open ends to crime-Fiction :/

The major plot points in this book are romance and the search for motive and identity of a mystery nemesis. The latter is unresolved. This makes much of the plot feel pointless. Why spend so much time on the mystery, if you are not going to resolve it?

This book is described as “stand-alone“ but feels like a setup for a long-going series of “Who‘s the bad guy and what is their goal?“.

Or it‘s just lazy writing, author wanting the drama without creating explanations.

Entertaining but unresolved plot
