Sometimes, Prince Charming isn't what you expect.

Lady Larissa, oldest daughter of the Duke of Wey, has one goal: find suitable husbands for her two younger sisters and best friend so they may live happily ever after. Despite their attempts at matchmaking for her, she's all but given up on finding her own groom, a gentleman good enough to meet her late mother's and grandmother's expectations. She has a hard enough time meeting those expectations for poise, propriety, and perfection. But a chance encounter brings the most marvelous gentleman to her attention. A shame he is merely a captain of the Imperial Guard of Batavaria and in no way the suitable husband for the daughter of a duke.

Prince Otto Leopold Augustus of Batavaria has one goal: to win back his country from those who ousted his family. But someone seems intent on stopping him, for danger stalks the corridors of their palace in England. So why not trade places with his identical twin brother, the leader of the Imperial Guard? Leo might just uncover their enemies before someone is hurt. And having an ally in the thoroughly proper and pretty duke's daughter can only help.

The more Larissa and Leo are thrown together, the more secrets come to light and the more their attraction grows. Would the daughter of a duke dare to throw off propriety, if it means winning the heart of the most princely of men?

If you like warm, witty historical romances, with a touch of intrigue, then you'll love this series starter by an award-winning author.

"Regina Scott writes vivid characters that grabbed my heart quickly and a plot that kept me reading way too far into the night hours." Huntress Reviews

      Larissa Dryden always thought that one day her prince would come. However, it only takes a few minutes with Crown Prince Leo of Batavaria for Larissa to realize that he is not the prince of her dreams. Instead, her romantic fancy is captured by Captain Frederick Archambault of the Batavarian Imperial Guards. What Larissa doesn't know is that Prince Leo often switches places with his twin brother, Frederick, as part of his plan to ferret out the danger he believes threatens the Batavarian royal family. But can Leo convince Larissa that she can have the captain she is falling for and the prince of her dreams in one man? From the impeccably researched historical setting to the engaging plot spiced with a splash of political intrigue and a dash of dry wit, Scott delivers on all counts, and fans of traditional Regencies will cheer her return to this romantic subgenre with the launch of her new The Wedding Vow series.
