Follow My Lead (The Blue Raven #3) by Kate Noble

Follow My Lead by Kate Noble

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


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?

My thoughts...
Thought this was a cute but fun romance.The book starting out with him and is sister writing back and forth are to funny !Especially her advising him to wait to help him find a bride and what will happens if he doesn't heed her advice. Sure enough he knows it all and ends of in a compromising position right from the get go with three young ladies lol., sister knows best!Decides to take a different approach and meets Winn at the Historical Society thinking her kind of mad trying to prove the authentic y of a painting wanting to a member of this society but it is a mans club only. She sets out to Europe to prove she right and also to avoid becoming married. She is desperate to depart and  she hooks up with the Duke of Rayne and there adventure begins. The two together and there antic's made the book funny.They learned from one another and both parties grew through this mishap adventure.Slowing falling in love neither admitting there feeling.And Winn thinking all she wanted was her Independence.But, one's heart has other ideas. It was nice to see for a change and miss for change with a brain and not the flighty misses you always see that care about nothing else but the dress they wear . And although Jason (the duke of Rayne )he in reality is just another ordinary man that happens to be a little boring and not quiet what a Duke is suppose to be find love in the truest sense.
