Is there a feat that lets me do this? If so, which book is it in and what are the Prerequisites for it. I can't seem to find it anymore.
Thanks

You might see if your DM would allow the Improved Shield Bash (fr. PHB) to do this. It doesn't seem to out of line.
Actually, I believe Improved Buckler Defense is the feat you're looking for. It's from Complete Warrior on page 100.

Just shield proficiency, but it applies to two weapon fighting because it mentions when you attack with your off hand.Actually, I believe Improved Buckler Defense is the feat you're looking for. It's from Complete Warrior on page 100.Does it have any prerequisites?

Does it work with with a two-handed weapon? My Duskblade weilds a heavy flail and I would like be able to use a buckler without penalty. My DM already told me that he wouldn't allow Dastanas from the A&E Guide so I need to find a way to get and keep a shield bonus without switching to a different weapon. The Heavy Flail is a signature weapon and what I use for disarming the BBEGs (with a quick cast True Strike, improved disarm, 2-handed bonus, etc. I will take out anybody's weapon!) so I won't switch to another weapon. I just need a shield bonus so I can stay in the front more often.

It just says off-hand, so I think you're out of luck with that one. Nice idea though, and there might be a feat out there for regarding this.
Dancing Shield?
Pick up Psionic Warrior and get the Shield power?
When you get some treasure invest it in making your flail a Defending Flail?
Buy an Amulate of Natural Armour?
Use other feats that increase AC such as Dodge?
Damn, anyone know of a way for me to have a constant shield bonus while fighting with a 2-handed weapon?
From DMG, pg. 218:
Animated: Upon command, an animated shield floats within 2 feet of the wielder, protecting her as if she were using it herself but freeing up both her hands. Only one shield can protect the character at a time. A character with an animated shield still takes any penalties associated with shield use, such as armor check penalty, arcane spell failure chance, and nonproficiency.
