About the book:
A New Beginning
A youthful indiscretion has cost Lizzie Poole more than just her honor. After five years living in exile, she's finally returning home, but she's still living a secret life. Her best friend Ria's dying wish was for Lizzie to assume her identity, return to London, and make amends that Ria herself would never live to make. Bearing a striking resemblance to her friend, and harboring more secrets than ever before, Lizzie embarks on a journey that tempts her reckless heart once again . . .
A committed clergyman, Geoffrey Somerville's world is upended when he suddenly inherits the title of Lord Somerville. Now he's invited to every ball and sought after by the matchmaking mothers of London society. Yet the only woman to capture his heart is the one he cannot have: his brother's young widow, Ria. Duty demands he deny his feelings, but his heart longs for the mysterious beauty. With both their futures at stake, will Lizzie be able to keep up her façade? Or will she find the strength to share her secret and put her faith in true love?

My thoughts:
An Heiress at Heart is the first book in the Love's Grace series. It was a great historical romance. The storyline was easy to follow and I was drawn into the book quickly. I loved how the MC had assumed the identity of her late friend -- and pulled it off pretty well.
The romance was good. I liked how both Lizzie and Geoffrey were drawn to each other, but because of who she was impersonating (his brother's widow) a romance between them wasn't possible. It was interesting to see how things played out and I loved the characters.
All in all, An Heiress at Heart was a wonderful read. It was written well and I recommend it. I'm looking forward to reading more of Jennifer Delamere.
