Author: Kate Noble | Website

Kate Noble loves books. Romances especially. But, being born into a family of doctors, scientists, and mathematicians, she didn't discover she was adept at writing until, oh, about junior year of high school. Which came as something of a relief, as she was hopeless at memorizing the Latin names for all the bones in the human body. The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle eludes her to this day. Kate lives in Los Angeles.

If I Fall

After a duke's betrayal, the resilient Sarah Forrester reinvents herself as society's leading light-the life of the party. It's all a facade of course. When an old friend returns to London, he's determined to rediscover the true and trusting Sarah he once knew. But it'll take more than a kiss and a promise-it might even call for an innocent and necessary deception.

If I Fall is a wonderful romance novel. Ms. Noble is a writer whose noteworthy uses of her imagination and witty sense of humor have made me change my mind about historical romance novels-or at least reading more of her work. After having read a multitude (ok ten) reviews that praising her other titles I worried that I was in for a huge let down because no one can live up to that much praise; I was wrong to w

Follow My Lead

From the national bestselling author: a romantic adventure across Europe starring a marriage minded Duke and an independent beauty...

Jason Cummings, Duke of Rayne is feeling the weight of his responsibilities - one of which is to get married.  Being the most sought after bachelor in London can be trying,  so who can blame him if he seeks refuge from the voracious hordes of young debutantes at the decidedly female-free Historical Society?  Female-free, that is, until Winnifred Crane marches up to the door, demanding entrance.


Despite her prowess as a historian, Winn is denied membership the Society.  So she daringly offers an unusual bargain: if she can prove the authenticity of a certain painting, she'll be granted recognition, fame, and respect.  But to do that, she must go abroad. And to go abroad, she must have an escort, even a stubbornly unwilling one...
 
Jason has no desire to accompany Winn on her adventure across Europe, but even he is not immune to Winn's passion for her profession. As the journey proves more difficult than planned, they must work together to stay one step ahead of their rivals.... and the closer they get to the proof Winn seeks, the closer she and Jason become.  But as their adventure turns dangerous, can Jason keep this headstrong bluestocking safe?  And what will become of their growing bond when the adventure ends?

Phillippa Benning is young, rich, widowed, beautiful and the most powerful woman of the ton at the moment. She loves every bit of that power and uses it ruthlessly. She also has a rival in Lady Jane Cummings, and Phillippa will do pretty much anything to thwart her. Including having a secret meeting in the library with the Marquis of Broughton.   Marcus Worth is a former spy, of sorts, and still works
