The Spinster

A wild lady. A wicked curse.

And a love torn apart by tragedy.

MISS JOHANNA GREY's wild youth ends abruptly when her best friend-and betrothed-falls to his death upon climbing the tree outside her window. Heartbroken and unable to forgive herself, she retreats to Miss Bell's Finishing School for Young Ladies.

Until London calls four years later, and Johanna finds herself swept into a world of matchmakers and schemers, pressured to find a husband. Will it be kind-hearted Lord Kenwood, a man who reminds her of the friend she lost that fateful day long ago? Or perhaps COLIN GRENVILLE, a young man from her past, who has loved her for as long as he can remember?

For years, Colin stayed away, travelling the world, but now that Johanna has returned to London, he finds himself drawn back to England. Will he reach her in time before she chooses the wrong man? Or will fate never be on their side?
