The Lost Heiress
Book 1 of the Ladies of the Manor series
439 pages · First published 2015
Brook Eden was raised in Monaco but has never known the truth of her British birth, so she travels to Yorkshire when her longtime friend Justin discovers evidence that she may be a missing heiress. Her father accepts her, but Whitby Park’s family and servants are far less certain, and the unexplained death of Brook’s mother suggests that proving her identity may also revive an old danger. Justin’s obligations as heir to a dukedom repeatedly pull him away just as friendship begins turning into love. The first Ladies of the Manor novel combines Edwardian romance, a lost-heiress mystery, rare treasure, and threats that make belonging at an ancestral estate far more dangerous than Brook imagined. This Edwardian romance suits readers who enjoy hidden heritage, ancestral estates, and the dangerous secrets behind an unexpected sense of belonging.
