Description:

A master spy and a beautiful thief find love and intrigue in each other’s arms. . .Forced to do the bidding of a corrupt government minister, Marianne de Bonnard agrees to plant incriminating evidence in the offices of France’s most notorious spymaster. Under cover of night, the tightrope-walking thief puts her skills to good use—until her aerial stunt is foiled when her target appears in the window and, with consummate poise, helps Marianne off the wire and into his lair. The tremors that run through her body are not just from fear; there’s an unwanted frisson of desire there, too. But is it because of her elegant, wickedly handsome host . . . or his proposition?Nicolas Valette has had plans for his graceful trespasser since he witnessed her unique skills at the Cirque Olympique. Sinuous as a cat, Marianne is perfect for his next mission, but she refuses his generous offer for fear of disobeying her family’s tormenter. When their mutual enemy auctions off her virginity to the highest bidder, Nicolas leaps at the chance to purchase her cooperation. Keeping her will be like trying to tame a wild animal, but what’s life without a little risk? Besides, Nicolas and Marianne both want the same thing: revenge—and, perhaps, something else that’s equally delicious.Praise for To Steal a Heart “[To Steal a Heart] is rich with espionage and suspense. Multidimensional believable characters and fast-paced plotting propel the story forward to its moving conclusion.”—Publishers Weekly“The writing and characterization are superb, the romance is hot, snarky and tender and the hero is delicious. I couldn’t ask for much more in an historical romance and I’m eagerly awaiting whatever Ms. Bateman comes up with next.”—All About Romance“The sexual chemistry between the two built so steadily that I thought I would go up in flames if they didn’t stop battling each other and give in to their needs.”—Kilts and Swords“A memorable entry into the world of historical romance . . . Secret agents and steamy sensuality join forces and ignite the pages.”—Jenerated Reviews

Blood rushes to my head, and I get pins and needles in my hands. But then it fades, and I’m still here. Still on the bed. I hurry to the front door and look through the peephole. It’s the carpenter. He’s wearing a sleeveless navy shirt, acid-washed jeans and bright-white joggers. God, he’s got nice arms. All that drilling onsite obviously does good things for his biceps.I open the door. “Hello.”“Hi. I was wondering whether you were still here. I guess you are.” He smiles and brushes his curly hair out of his eyes. “Sorry again for startling you yesterday. My housemate and I are getting Chinese takeaway for dinner tonight, and I thought you might like to join us.”A housemate. Not a girlfriend.Say no. Say no. Say NO. “Actually, that would be great,” I say.What’s wrong with you, Caitlyn? You know this is a terrible idea.His face lights up, and my stomach flips at the sight. “Terrific. You can come over now, or a bit later, whichever you prefer. And the offer of a hot shower still stands.”“I think I will take you up on that, actually. A hot shower would be amazing.” Forty-eight hours. That’s all it took to break me. So weak. “I’ll come over in a bit.”“Fantastic. See you then.” He smiles.I shut the door and then look through the peephole. He’s just standing there, grinning at the door. I grin too, despite myself, then shake my head. I shouldn’t be doing this. I know that. So why am I?I walk back down the hall. I know exactly why I’m doing this. I’m doing this because I’m bored, and he’s seriously cute. Really good, valid reasons. I sigh. How much harm can one dinner do, really?

Lord Percival Bretagne is used to playing games. He survived being a spy for a decade using his wits alone. But that was just life and death. Now he’s playing for the most important prize of all — love.

He’ll stop at nothing....

Ten years after his family gave him up for dead, British spy Lord Percival Bretagne is back home, but his mission is far from over. Playing the aristocrat in London gambling dens and at country house parties is just a cover for Percy's real quest. He's hunting the man who stole everything from him — his family, his marriage, even his identity. And this time nothing, and no one, will stand in his way.

She’ll risk it all....

But one night with Isabel Galante changes everything. She’s willing to gamble a woman’s most intimate prize in order to save her imprisoned father, but she didn’t expect a devilishly handsome opponent with a dangerously attractive wicked streak. Isabel would do anything for her family, including betraying Percy, but she has no idea that she’s stumbled into the middle of a decade-long quest for revenge.

Who will win in the game called love?

Percy has been betrayed before, and now the man who destroyed his life is using Isabel to strike again. With the fate of the government and his new life in the balance, he’ll have to keep Isabel seductively, scandalously close. They begin a passionate game of truth and lies, deception and dalliance, uncovering the heart of who they really are and realizing that winning might mean losing what matters the most — each other.
