To Steal a Heart (Secrets and Spies)

In a dazzling historical romance thatâ€™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 otherâ€™s arms.
Â
Forced to do the bidding of a corrupt government minister, Marianne de Bonnard agrees to plant incriminating evidence in the offices of Franceâ€™s most notorious spymaster. Under cover of night, the tightrope-walking thief puts her skills to good useâ€”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; thereâ€™s an unwanted frisson of desire there, too. But is it because of her elegant, wickedly handsome host . . . or his proposition?
Â
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 familyâ€™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 whatâ€™s life without a little risk? Besides, Nicolas and Marianne both want the same thing: revengeâ€”and, perhaps, something else thatâ€™s equally delicious.
