Waiting For a Duke Like You — Shana Galen

There's no such thing as the perfect hero... Nathan Cauley, tenth Duke of Wyndover, is so handsome ladies swoon-literally swoon. His blond hair and blue eyes certainly draw attention at the Duke of Sedgemere's house party, but Nathan doesn't want a fawning young miss for his duchess. He stumbles upon a bedraggled woman sleeping under Sedgemere's bridge, and his protective instincts stir. When he recognizes her as the princess he fell in love with eight years before, he's determined to win not only her affections but her heart. Or is there? After revolutionaries massacre Princess Vivienne's family, she and the head of her guard flee to England. Before they can reach London to beg asylum, assassins kill the last of her defenders. Vivienne is alone and on the run when the Duke of Wyndover comes to her rescue. She barely remembers meeting him years before, and isn't comfortable with gentlemen who are more attractive than she is. Nathan is more than a pretty face, though, and when the assassins return, he might just prove to be the duke Vivienne has been waiting for.
