The Pursuit of Lucy Banning: A Novel by Olivia Newport

The Pursuit of Lucy Banning: A NovelThe Pursuit of Lucy Banning: A Novel by Olivia Newport
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Lucy Banning has been born to a life of privilege, but has a heart for those that are less fortunate. She appears to have it all, when the story opens. She is taking college classes, behind everyone's back, and engaged to be married to her childhood friend Daniel.
Daniel is also from "Money", and has a career as a promising Banker. She has two older brother's Oliver and Leo. When her brother Leo brings home his friend Will, Lucy is very interested. Even her mother notices, and admonishes her....after all she is an engaged woman.
Lucy is also playing an active roll in the upcoming 1893 World's Fair. With this there are also strange things happening at the house.
I read this in almost one setting...such a great quick read...and you won't know all the answers to almost the end.

I received this book from the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.
