If you love The Great Gatsby, you'll want to read the Flappers series. Power . . . love . . . scandal . . . there’s never enough to go around. In the city that never sleeps, Lorraine Dyer is wide awake. Ever since she exposed Clara Knowles for the tramp she was—and lost her closest confidante in the process—Lorraine has spent every second scheming to make her selfish, lovesick ex–best friend pay for what she did. No one crosses Lorraine. Not even Gloria. True love conquers everything—or so Gloria Carmody crazily believed. She and Jerome Johnson can barely scrape together cash for their rent, let alone have a moment to whisper sweet nothings in the dark. And if they thought escaping Chicago meant they’d get away with murder . . . they were dead wrong. Clara was sure that once handsome, charming Marcus Eastman discovered her shameful secret, he’d drop her like a bad habit. Instead, he swept her off her feet and whisked her away to New York. Being with Marcus is a breath of fresh air—and a chance for Clara to leave her wild flapper ways firmly in the past. Except the dazzling parties and bright lights won’t stop whispering her name. . . . INGENUE is the second novel in the sexy, dangerous, and ridiculously romantic Flappers series set in the Roaring Twenties . . . where revenge is a dish best served cold.

"Oh my goodness! Jillian has out done herself. As soon as I finished the first book, Vixen, I immediately ordered this one! Saying these books are amazing is an Understatement! There is so much excitement and danger and secrets. These books are so packed with so much adventure and crazy twist and turns! Read it! Seriously!"

" Aw. I really want Clara to stay with Marcus. That's the one plot line I really wanted to read the book for. "
— Lynae, 2/18/2014" Even better than the first one (Vixen). The cliffhanger at the end makes me want more! "
— Chloe, 2/5/2014" I found it quite silly that one couple moved from Chicago to NY, so all of the other characters followed suit and ALL of them ended up finding Gloria. She's not so bright, and she should try looking for other friends. "
— Andrea, 2/3/2014" the only reason I was glad to be sick today was to sit around and read this book. it is such an intriguing story and I love the characters. I drew a lot of my ideas of what the characters looked like from gossip girl the plot lines are similar. "
— Lori, 1/28/2014" Series continues to be ridiculous fun. "
— Stacey, 1/28/2014" Where the first book was glitter and starry eyes, this book is gritty with feet on the ground. All the girl's lives have changed dramatically from the first book. Instead of just girls, they are on the road to becoming independent women. "
— Courtney, 1/26/2014" I was looking forward to this next book in this "Flapper" series but felt this one did not have the same speedy pace and surprises. I would actually rate this 2.5 "
— Jody, 1/14/2014" This picks up where Vixen left off. I couldn't get into the continuing drama of the three girls. Might have worked out Ok but I didn't care enough about the characters to get into it all again. "
— Jacqui, 1/10/2014" Entertaining but not particularly engrossing. "
— Hannah, 1/4/2014" Ah! Ah! Ahh! The 2nd book of the Flapper series definitely did not disappoint. "
— Ifahh, 11/19/2013" Absolutely amazing! More adventure and romance. I couldn't put it down. The end will leave readers thirsting for more. The third book needs to hurry up and come out already! "
— Tal, 11/6/2013" A good follow up to her first novel! I enjoyed it and I actually read through it very fast. "
— Denya, 11/4/2013" Not as good as the first one--I would have liked more historical info like Vixen had, but still enough mystery and intrigue to keep me up at night finishing it. "
— Emma, 6/13/2013" I CANNOT WAIT FOR THE 3rd book!!! :D This is soooooooooo good! :D "
— Jennifer, 5/25/2013" I love this series and am looking forword to but sad to see the conclusion. I have all the characters perfectly seen in my head and can pick the actors to play the roles either in a movie or tv show.. These books are pure guilty pleasure!! Hope to see Miss. Larkin write another series. "
— Lauren, 1/21/2013" I love the times of this series. The book was good, however I do think the first one was better, also a little disappointed with how some characters "ended up". I hope the 3rd one will make up for this one. "
— Tammy, 7/2/2012" I was really excited about this book because I loved the first one, and I did like this one a lot, but in my opinion the mystery kind of fell flat. "
— Leonore, 12/24/2011" Good as the first book in the series. Can't wait to read Diva in 2012! "
— Chelsea, 11/13/2011" Sloppily written with no extraordinary grace, despite the characters it tries to inhabit. Is Marcus going to be revealed to be a time traveler because of all the non-flapper-era things he says? The problems they face are realistic, but there's just no heart to the story. "
— Maree, 11/2/2011" I love the times of this series. The book was good, however I do think the first one was better, also a little disappointed with how some characters "ended up". I hope the 3rd one will make up for this one. "
— Tammy, 10/27/2011" Really slow start. Really slow. And I just didn't like it as much as I liked the first book. The characters were more shallow here, and I think the improbability of all the characters ending up how they did was a lot to take on. "
— Kimberly, 10/14/2011" I think I'm getting addicted to this series. Bummed I actually have to wait for book 3. :-( "
— Kelley, 10/9/2011" AGAIN another amazing sequel. this one followed up perfectly with the first and the characters were still as fantastic as before. CANNOT WAIT for the third one!<br/> "
— Mimi, 9/28/2011" This was ok. I feel like something was missing though. I thought the characters felt too one dimensional. I also got confused while I was reading because it's so similar to Anna Godbersons series that at times I wasn't sure what book I was reading. "
— Kristin, 9/26/2011" Ah! Ah! Ahh! The 2nd book of the Flapper series definitely did not disappoint. "
— Ifahh, 9/18/2011" A fun, light read, but I'm more looking forward to Anna G.'s second Roaring '20s book after devouring the first & the whole Luxe series. "
— Izzie, 9/9/2011" I love these books. Can't wait for the last one! "
— Sarah, 9/4/2011" 3.5 stars <br/> <br/>I enjoyed this but didn't LOVE it much as Vixen. "
