Romance Historical
In a dazzling historical romance that’s perfect for fans
of Sabrina Jeffries, Lisa Kleypas, and Courtney Milan, debut
author K. C. Bateman brings Napoleonic France to life as 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.
