Books like She's No Princess (Avon Romantic Treasure) by Laura Lee Guhrke
Lucia, the disgraced illegitimate daughter of a prince and a courtesan, has spent her life locked away in schools and convents, yet a series of scandals prove she is no child to be quietly forgotten. Frustrated, her royal father demands she marry immediately. Sir Ian Moore, Britain's polished diplomat, is chosen as her prospective husband. Though his expertise lies in statecraft, Ian vows to unite the restless heir with a suitable match so he may resume his official duties. However, with each potential suitor falling short, Ian finds his reluctance to marry her growing. Perhaps the princess’s true match is not another suitor at all but the diplomat himself, who cannot deny the force of their connection.
