Carols and Chaos by Cindy Anstey
Pub. Date: October 9, 2018
Goodreads says, "A lady's maid and a valet become entangled in a yuletide counterfeiting scheme in this romantic Christmas YA adventure. 1817. The happy chaos of the Yuletide season has descended upon the country estate of Shackleford Park in full force, but lady's maid Kate Darby barely has the time to notice. Between her household duties, caring for her ailing mother, and saving up money to someday own a dress shop, her hands are quite full. Matt Harlow is also rather busy. He's performing double-duty, acting as valet for both of the Steeple brothers, two of the estate's holiday guests. Falling in love would be a disaster for either of them. But staving off their feelings for each other becomes the least of their problems when a devious counterfeiting scheme reaches the gates of Shackleford Park, and Kate and Matt are unwittingly swept up in the intrigue. Full of sweetness, charm, and holiday shenanigans, Carols and Chaos is perfect for fans of Jane Austen and Downton Abbey."
Believe it or not, a lot of the holiday books come out next month! I always try to read at least one holiday book each season and I have my eye on this one. I have been meaning to read Anstey's other YA historical novels, but haven't gotten around to it. Have you? What do you guys think of this seasonal read? Let me know your thoughts!
Can you believe holiday books are coming out. I feel like it never hit summer here. Ughh I have to worry about this now. Good pick tho. I like mysteries.

DeleteI'm trying to figure out what books I want to read during the holidays. I've read another by this author and enjoyed it so maybe this one will make the cut. I featured a holiday pick today too...except it contained zombies :)
