Bøger i Husband Hunters serien

Lucy Holbrook has recently inherited her father's south London inn, the place she's always called home. Now her fashionable friends, arming her with The Husband Hunter's Guide to London, are urging her to sell the establishment and become a society lady, just as her father always hoped. Lucy would rather toss the little book into the hearth--she could never desert the alehouse or its patrons, including an elderly blind man who depends on her care. But she may need every bit of good advice when a handsome stranger arrives with a secret agenda and a baffling crime to solve . . . and Lucy finds herself navigating a most dangerous attraction!

"An independent lady is accidentally betrothed to a spy with a mysterious past."--Provided by publisher.

When a husband is needed by Christmas, a trusted slender volume for ensuring a merry match is indeed a gift! In this Regency delight from beloved, award-winning author Kate Moore, a spirited governess joins a gentleman spy on a daring mission: finding a mate for a jilted debutante-while drawing dangerously close to each other... 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... Praise for The Husband Hunter's Guide to London "Appealing protagonists and a slow simmering romance.
