Her brother's best friend. The brilliant doctor he's been crushing on for years. What's a little flirting among friends?

Princess Rhododendron--or Dr. Broward, as she's known around the lab--is finally taking the scientific expedition she'd been planning for months. Who does her little brother--His Majesty, as he's known around the palace--send along? His best friend, Arron James, the man who's been getting closer to her since he was shot last year. She's doing her royal best to hold this commoner at arm's length, but she really wants to hold him in her arms...

Lieutenant Arron James, a boy from the docks, has just found out that he's the next Duke of Greenmeadow Downs. And suddenly, everything he's known about himself is in question. Well, not everything--he's still in love with Rhodie Broward, just like he has been for years. Getting a chance with her? It's everything he's been dreaming about...but can she accept him without the dukedom tipping the scales?
