The Lost Heiress by Roseanna White

The Lost HeiressI’m a huge fan of Roseanna White’s–I’ve read and adored every single one of her novels and novellas. I’m so glad I recently read The Lost Heiress; it was just as amazing as I thought it would be!

Brook is just the kind of heroine I love having for a friend for a few hundred pages; and there were several hundred pages worth of her story to enjoy. Not that I’m complaining. By the time I reached the last quarter of the book, I didn’t want it to end. But at the same time, I wanted to know the answer to the great mystery revolving around Brook’s mother.

A mystery we wouldn’t have even known about had it not been for Justin, Brook’s friend who enables her to return to her family. I loved that the first couple chapters of Brook’s story loosely mirrors the plot of Lori Wick’s The Hawk and the Jewel–that whole raised-in-another-country bit was fascinating. But it was also over and done with pretty quickly; Roseanna situates us back in England fairly soon so that the real fun can begin.

And that real fun had me reading at every spare moment, including over breakfast.

A softly unfolding romance, complete with misinterpreted feelings, danger, bungled plots by well-meaning (or not so well-meaning) characters. I so enjoyed this story and how it evokes all the reasons I love Downton Abbey in a clean, Christian read perfect for a late-summer vacation or autumnal enjoyment. I highly recommend Roseanna White’s latest!

    I enjoyed reading this review! :) Isn’t “The Lost Heiress” beautifully Downton Abbeyish but with all the pluses of being Christian?!? And the cover is perfect …
