Am Trying to Remember the author and Title of a book

[Kathryn]

I’m hoping someone in here will be able to help me remember the book title and author of a historical romance story I read a long time ago. I only remember bits and pieces of the story’s plot, but what I do remember is that it’s a story about a shy orphan who was raised in a nun like institution and was rescued from a life of drudgery as an underpaid governess when her long lost uncle finds her after returning to England from India as rich as a Nabob. After he finds and rescues her, he then sets out to launch her into her rightful place in society with the help of his good friend the marquess? Of?? (can’t remember the character’s title or name) who is not only one of society’s most elusive and eligible bachelors but a leader of the fashionable ton… Does anyone remember this story – and the name of the book and its author? Thanks.

This is not a Librarians Group issue, but one for the What's The Name of That Book??? group. Closing thread.
