Brook Eden has never known where she truly belongs. When her friend Justin uncovers the fact that she is possibly a missing heiress from Yorkshire, Brook leaves the sun of the Mediterranean to travel to the moors of the North Sea and the estate of her supposed family.The mystery of her mother's death haunts her, and though her father is quick to accept her, the rest of the family and the servants of Whitby Park are not. Only when Brook's life is threatened do they draw close—but will their loyalty come too late to save Brook from the same threat that led to tragedy for her mother?
As heir to a dukedom, Justin is no stranger to balancing responsibilities. When the matters of his estate force him far from Brook, the distance between them reveals that their friendship has grown into something much more. But how can their very different loyalties and responsibilities ever come together?
And then for a second time, the heiress of Whitby Park is stolen away because of the very rare treasure in her possession—and those who can save her still aren't sure whom to trust.

Justin is her long time friend that helps Brook learn her true identity.I enjoyed Justin and Brook's story. They are both likable and strong characters. I especially enjoyed Brook's independent spirit. While I admired Brook's strong character, I was a bit frustrated on how she could forgive one character beyond reason and have no forgiveness
Such a delightful book! Lots of details and plenty of drama. If you love sweeping historical dramas, with past tragedy and murder and missing cursed gemstones....well, I can't say enough good about this tale. It absorbed me all the way from beginning to end. Now I am so eager for book two to be published, though I dread the wait for book three. Especially since we know that the last remaining conspirator is just waiting to strike again!I loved Brook and I loved Justin and I loved Whitby. And the
Roseanna White is my favorite author. Her stories always have such interesting history, philosophy, and spirituality woven together with the romance. I love everything she writes, and I'm excited that she has taken her stories to Edwardian England for a fun new twist. If you enjoy The Lost Heiress, give her Biblical novels a chance too. Those are my very favorites.

But I still loved it. There were only two things that put me off from the story (thus one star off) was the romance was a bit much sometimes. There were some
Combining historical characters and a fictional cast, White brilliantly captures the emotions, fears, and faith of a nobody-turned-duchess. Life as the duchess, however, was not all a joyous reunion. Trouble soon finds Brooke--is it somehow linked to her mother's mysterious death? I give 5+ stars for the brilliant writing of this book. In just the first chapter I was awed at the ease and flow of the words, the imagery captured. According to my preference, this was probably one of the
