When a husband is needed by Christmas, a trusted slender volume for ensuring a merry match is indeed a gift!
Behind her seemingly dependent role as an unpaid caretaker—of both children and dogs—Harriet Swanley has in fact astutely avoided a forced marriage.
But hers is not the only secret under wraps: Charles Davenham is working covertly to unmask a Russian agent—until the younger sister he’s always protected comes to him, recently rejected and clutching The Husband Hunter’s Guide to London.
The little handbook would be a godsend—if only the distraught girl didn’t mangle all of its good advice! If Harriet can help Charles find a love match for his sibling, perhaps, in this season of good tidings, a long-buried attraction can set their own hearts aflame.

Title: The Christmas Husband Hunt
Series: Husband Hunters #4
Author: Kate Moore
Genre: Historical Romance
Published: November 5, 2019
Publisher: Kensington Books
My Rating: 4 stars
I haven’t had the pleasure of reading the first stories in this series (yet, that will easily be rectified) and I wasn’t the least bit lost in following this story or the general idea of the series. So, I feel safe in saying that you could read THE CHRISTMAS HUSBAND HUNT on its own without a problem.
Charles and Harriet “Harry” make an interesting couple who are slowly drawn to each other through helping Charles’ younger sister. Each is holding tight to secrets, watching them unravel was a fun adventure. We have a definite villain to uncover and a storyline that will keep you guessing along the way. I enjoyed this world, had fun with the characters and will definitely be going back to the beginning at some point for the whole series.
*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the publisher via NetGalley. That does not change what I think of this story. It is my choice to leave a review giving my personal opinion about this book.*
Available in paperback and for the Kindle
