A Royal Pain...
The illegitimate daughter of a prince and a notorious courtesan, Lucia
has been confined to schools and convents for most of her life. But that
hasn't stopped her from causing one scandal after another. Exasperated,
her royal father decides that his exquisite hellion of a daughter must
be married immediately. And Sir Ian Moore, Britain's most proper
diplomat, is the perfect man to choose her a groom.
Diplomacy, not matchmaker, is Ian's forte, but he vows to get Lucia
married off as soon as possible so that he may return to his real
duties. Yet, despite an abundance of very eager, worthwhile candidates,
none is a match for Lucia's spirit and fire. And the more time Ian
spends with the infuriating beauty, the more reluctant he is to marry
her off. Could it be that he has already found Lucia the perfect
husband...and it is Ian himself?
