Deborah Goes to Dover

In this “lighthearted Regency romp,” a determined matchmaker has her hands full (Publishers Weekly) . . .

Traveling matchmaker Miss Pym is on a coach trip to Dover when she comes across a young boy . . . who is, in fact, Lady Deborah Western. The hoyden is in disguise while her twin brother smuggles her to a prizefight . . .

It’s up to Miss Pym to step in and guard Lady Deborah’s reputation after her ruse is discovered—while at the same time trying to discourage her footman from taking part in a boxing competition himself. After a handsome earl steps into the fray, Miss Pym finds herself juggling two matchmaking challenges—and engaging in some fights of her own . . .

This “frothily entertaining” tale, originally published under the name Marion Chesney, is a delightful journey to Regency England from a beloved New York Times–bestselling author (Publishers Weekly).
