☆ ☆ ☆☆ ☆ 4.5 In Pursuit Stars ☆ ☆ ☆☆ ☆Outstanding Olivia!! ←--- see the alliteration Ms. Olivia Luck <3 I absolutely adored this book and I think Olivia did a fabulous job on her debut book. In Pursuit was a captivating and consuming dramatic romantic tale of Edith Neff and Harris Grant in their pursuit of second chances at life and love. I devoured this book in one sitting and wanted to know more exquisite Edith and handsome Harris. Ms. Luck will consume you on a tale of two individuals trying to balance a relationship when family obligations and past collides.Edith Neff is an interior designer who moves to Chicago, leaving behind her old life in D.C. With a fresh new start, she moves in with Claire Grant, a high school friend of her best friend Sarah. Claire makes her presence known when she meets Eddie and tries to befriend her. Claire’s personality borders on hot and cold and possessive. What Eddie didn’t expect was that one of the perks of living in a posh apartment with Claire, was Claire’s sexy older brooding brother, Harris.Harris Grant is the overprotective brother who tries to help Claire get perspective on her life. Harris holds a deep sadness and guilt that carries with him and so he builds a wall around his heart. His guilt resonates so deep that he puts his obligation and responsibility to his sister first.When Edith and Harris finally admits their growing attraction to each other, walls are slowly being torn down. Edith found her happiness in Harris. He makes her feel alive, loved, and cherished which she didn't have growing up. As for Harris, Edith humbles him. Years of sadness and loneliness begins to evaporate when he is with Eddie. He begins to feel. Little by little, Eddie tries to break down the walls but hits a roadblock when Claire tries to interfere in their relationship. So will Harris give up in his pursuit of Edith? Or is Edith better off pursuing and finding her happiness elsewhere?In Pursuit was a consuming dramatic tale that will have you yelling at your kindle. Literally, as I approached the last page I found myself shaking my head and saying WHY HARRIS, WHY? Ms. Luck will captivate you with the dramatic unfolding of the lives of Harris, Edith, and Claire. I look forward to reading Of Happiness and see what secrets will be unraveled and if Edith and Harris will get their pursuit of happiness.
