Arabella Plantin (born 1700) was an eighteenth-century British novelist. She was the author of The Ingrateful; or, The Just Revenge) (1727) and Love Led Astray; or, The Mutual Inconstancy (1731).[1]

The Ingrateful is a story of an Italian woman who murders her husband after he has spent her fortune, and Love Led Astray is a pastoral tale of crossed lovers.[2]

The literary critic Bridget G. MacCarthy in her 1944-47 study, The Female Pen, described Love Led Astray as "an absurd travesty of the pastoral tradition", with critic Brian Corman describing Plantin as a writer of "outmoded and highly artificial romances."[3]
