Since her divorce, Jodi Spingold has dated three or four different guys at a time, all while spending time socially with her trendy and highly regarded spinster aunts and working closely with her sister, Jill, on all aspects of their corporation, Spinster Inc. When Jill gets engaged to a wonderful man, the press jumps on the story and the sisters' many single fans turn bitter and disgruntled.

The situation escalates when Jodi's ex-husband's horrid new fiancée begins threatening to plant negative publicity in the press unless they pay her off. But for all of her many worries, Jodi is most concerned about Connor, the intriguing man she met at the grocery store while trying to buy the last bag of mini-marshmallows for her Thanksgiving sweet potatoes. She's specifically concerned with whether he will call, whether he likes her as much as she likes him and whether she needs to stay single in order to keep the corporation viable and profitable.

From inside the minds of dating advice experts, Stacey Ballis creates a network of supportive sisters from their elderly aunts to their fortunate coworkers and all of their adoring fans. Practical and pointed advice, excerpted from Jodi and Jill's advice books, starts each new chapter to contrast the changes in their lives with the reality of their business. Ballis addresses the dilemmas of empowered, independent women who are proud of their single status, but also looking hopefully toward settling down with someone special with grace and eloquence. She asks the hard questions, like what gives our popular relationship experts their credibility, and can THE SPINSTER SISTERS continue to expand their woman-centered corporate empire if they loose their spinster status?
