Reserved lease covering quote rejected (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reticent

(Other definitions for reticent that I've seen before include "Holding back" , "Close-lipped" , "Reserved, loath to talk" , "Disinclined to speak" , "'Self-effacing, restrained (8)'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun and The Guardian.
