Publisher's Summary

I think I'm going to be a Fortune again,' Lolly said. I mean really a Fortune. I think I'm going to be called Fortune like you...'Ten-year-old Loreli Bancroft has always longed to be part of the Good Fortunes Gang - a real Fortune, just like her four cousins, Tracey, Jackson, Tessa and Pete. After all, she's still their cousin, even if her mother, a Fortune, did marry a Bancroft. But then her parents have a terrible argument - a real, hot Fortune kind of fight - and her father leaves home. Now Lolly can be a proper Fortune at last. It's what she has always wanted. Or is it? For Lolly suddenly experiences are strange, crumbly feeling, and her fatherless house seems cold and empty. As she realises how much she misses her father, her cousins - led by Trace the Ace - come up with a crazy plan to bring her parents back together again. But the results are very nearly disastrous.

Will Lolly's father ever come back now? A Fortunate Name is the second of the four riveting novels about the Fortune cousins- the Cousins quartet.
