The Spinster 

Book Two in the Rags to Richmonds series

from Amy D'Orazio and Jessie Lewis

Scarlett Margrave is convinced there is more to life than her day-to-day existence as the spinster daughter of a widowed parson in the small town of Stanbridge. She longs to experience more of life, even though her father insists there is nothing worth having anywhere beyond the safe confines of his parish, serving as his helpmeet in place of her late mother. Though only eighteen, she has resigned herself to life as a spinster. After all, when would she ever even meet a man, much less fall in love with one?

A chance encounter with the Earl of Worthe at Scarlett’s first-ever assembly exposes a shocking truth that could change everything. A twin sister she never knew she had, a family she never knew was hers, and a man who was never the father she has always believed him to be—nothing about her life is what she thought it was.

Suddenly unsure where she belongs and who she is, Scarlett sets off on a journey to find out where she came from and who her family really are, helped along the way by the amiable and gregarious Lord Worthe, a man she felt drawn to from the instant she met him. But will love at first sight be worth the fight to save it? Or will her previous life–the drab life of a discontented spinster–lay claim to her once and for all?

Looking for a publisher?

Quills & Quartos Publishing has one goal: to pair the best Jane Austen variations with the best in editing and cover design to create a superlative reading experience. We are not a vanity press, imprint, or services-for-hire company, but a traditional royalty-paying publishing house, staffed with editors and designers, looking for stories people will want to read.


But we need authors to write those stories. Are you a writer interested in publishing your work? We would love to hear from you.
