Kate Noble

Kate Noble brings social comedy, verbal sparring, and women who test fashionable convention to her historical romances. Compromised introduced her fiction career and opens the Blue Raven sequence. Berkley first issued the electronic edition in March 2008, followed by a mass-market edition in February 2009. The story pairs Gail Alton, overshadowed during the London Season by her admired sister, with Maximillian, Viscount Fontaine, whose sense of duty creates an unwanted engagement and a more complicated attachment. Noble uses family comparison, reputation, and sharp dialogue to move the courtship beyond its accidental beginning. Later Blue Raven books shift attention to other connected figures, while the Winner Takes All trilogy continues her interest in wagers, performance, and Regency expectations. Noble also works as television and digital-series writer Kate Rorick, an identity associated with The Lizzie Bennet Diaries. Compromised therefore introduces both her period setting and the quick, character-led exchanges that recur across her romantic fiction.
