5 out of 5: Diva by Jillian Larkin

Diva (The Flappers #3) by Jillian Larkin
Diva (Flappers, #3)Summary:
Joy and tragedy collide in DIVA, the riveting conclusion to the Flappers series, set in the dazzling Roaring Twenties. Parties, bad boys, speakeasies—life in Manhattan has become a woozy blur for Clara Knowles. If Marcus Eastman truly loved her, how could he have fallen for another girl so quickly? Their romance mustn't have been as magical as Clara thought. And if she has to be unhappy, she's going to drag everyone else down to the depths of despair right along with her.

Being a Barnard girl is the stuff of Lorraine Dyer's dreams. Finding out that Marcus is marrying a gold digger who may or may not be named Anastasia? A nightmare. The old Lorraine would have sat by and let the chips fall where they may, but she's grown up a lot these past few months. She can't bear to see Marcus lose a chance for true love. But will anyone listen to her?

Now that the charges against her have been dropped, Gloria Carmody is spending the last dizzying days of summer on Long Island, yachting on the sound and palling around with socialites at Forrest Hamilton's swanky villa. Beneath her smile, though, Gloria's keeping a secret. One that could have deadly consequences . . .

Marcus is getting married to another girl, only a few months after breaking up with Clara, Lorraine is going to Barnard, and Gloria is acting as a secret agent for the FBI.

In the first book (Vixen), the characters were very much involved with each other, but when they all moved to New York, their paths didn't cross many times.

In Diva, the same happens, but some characters come back together to form an epic team. And it's a completely unlikely pairing too!

Gloria is in Long Island trying to get some dirt on a rich man, because the way he earned so much money at such a young age seemed odd to the FBI. While she is there, Jerome is being warned off by Gloria's father.

The ending, and the events leading up to the ending were so crazy and twisty, I could barely keep up! The fate of two characters completely surprised me, and I was really happy!

All in all, an awesome book, and you should read it!
