Last chance to get The Devil To Pay on pre-order at $1.99.

Just a quick reminder,
Today is the LAST DAY you can buy THE DEVIL TO PAY, my new Italian Renaissance historical, at the preorder price of $1.99. It goes on sale live tomorrow (August 28th)! Hurray.

I can’t wait for you to meet Alessandro and Cara. If you like a snarky mercenary hero, a determined tomboy heiress, and a devilishly sexy bargain, then this is the book for you! (Want a sneak peek at the first few chapters? There’s a link below!)

All About Romance just gave it an amazing review: “Entertaining, fast-paced and sexy. . .Ms. Bateman once again offers a masterclass in How to Create Smoking Hot Sexual Tension as Cara and Alessandro strike sparks off each other and trade quips, insults and witticisms that fly effortlessly back and forth. . . if you’re a fan of the drop-dead gorgeous hero with a smart mouth, a wicked smirk and the ability to keep his heroine on her toes, chances are you’ll find much to enjoy here.”

Recreating Fragonard’s painting ‘The Swing’!

This evening I tried on the 18th century-style dress I’ve had made for the Historical Romance Retreat in Riverside next month . . .and decided it would be funny to recreate Fragonard’s painting ‘The Swing’!
As you do, on a boring Wednesday night.
What do you think?! The kids think I’ve lost may marbles! I’ve added a picture of Fragonard’s original, for comparison. I couldn’t find any handsome chaps to lie on the ground or give me a push, sadly. And the dismount was rather inelegant!
