How to Tame Your Duke (Princess In Hiding, #1) (Princess in Hiding Romance, #1)

by Juliana Gray

Three intrepid princesses find themselves targets in a deadly plot against the crown—until their uncle devises a brilliant plan to keep them safe...

England, 1888. Quiet and scholarly Princess Emilie has always avoided adventure, until she’s forced to disguise herself as a tutor in the household of the imposing Duke of Ashland, a former soldier disfigured in battle and abandoned by his wife. When chance draws her into a secret liaison with the duke, Emilie can’t resist the opportunity to learn what lies behind his forbidding mask, and find out what adventure really means...

The duke never imagines that his son’s tutor and his mysterious golden-haired beauty are one and the same. But when the true identity of his lover is laid bare, Ashland must face the demons in his past in order to safeguard both his lady—and his heart.

Never really a fan of huge age gaps in romance (this one probably about 15 years), but since there wasn't much of a focus on age, it wasn't bad. Would have liked more of a focus on Emilie's scholarly abilities and the danger they were facing, but... all in all, a good way to spend a Sunday afternoon.
