Closer to one's heart (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dearer

'closer to one's heart' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for dearer that I've seen before include "Less cheap" , "More expensive or more beloved" , "More expensive or loved" , "Nearer to the heart" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
