She is intelligent, resourceful, and not afraid to challenge societal norms that restrict women's opportunities for advancement. Throughout the novel, Laura faces various obstacles and setbacks but remains steadfast in her pursuit of wealth, power, and social recognition.

The novel explores the compromises and sacrifices she must make to fulfill her ambitions, as well as the moral dilemmas she faces along the way. Fawcett's writing style is characterized by its vivid descriptions, sharp social commentary, and engaging storytelling. Through Laura's journey, he offers a critique of the constraints imposed on women in Victorian society and examines the tensions between individual ambition and social expectations. "An Ambitious Woman" is not only a compelling tale of one woman's quest for success but also a thought-provoking exploration of gender, class, and ambition in Gilded Age America.
