Chataine's Guardian by Robin Hardy

I love a good princess story. This one begins as the young princess is found needing a protector. Her father assigns Roman, a young man several years the princess' elder. She runs the whole spectrum of torturing the poor soldier. She ignores him, is demanding, treats him like a dog and yet he is constant in his loyalty to her and his service. Being headstrong, she ofter finds herself in danger or tough situations. Yet Roman is always there to fix whatever situation she creates. Her turning point is seeing him punished by her father for an action that she took. Soon, she realizes that she is in love with the soldier. Yet, she is forced to travel from kingdom to kingdom at the request of the eligible young princes that would seek an alliance with her father's kingdom. This story of adventure and love is woven with a beautiful picture of God's love through out.
