Invention of Sarah Cummings by Olivia Newport

This is the third book in the Avenue of Dreams trilogy.  I have not read the first two but they focus on characters who are secondary in this story.  I enjoyed reading this book and was pleasantly surprised at the story.  I was a little hesitant at first but once I started reading, I enjoyed it.  Eventually, I hope to be able to go back and read the first two books in this series to read about those characters.

Here is the book information from the author's site:

Sarah Cummings has one goal in life-to break into Chicago’s high society. Desperate to stop serving dinner and to start eating at society tables, Sarah alters cast-off gowns from the wealthy Banning women to create lustrous, flattering dresses of her own. On a whim at a chance meeting, she presents herself as Serena Cuthbert, weaving a fictitious past to go with her fictitious name. But as she gets closer to Simon Tewell, the director of St. Andrew’s Orphanage, Sarah finds that she must choose between the life she has and the life she dreams of. Will she sacrifice love to continue her pretense? Or can Simon show her that sometimes you don’t have to pretend for dreams to come true?

I received this book for free from NetGalley.  I was not required to write a positive review for receiving this book.
