I believe the author's name is Rachel. A young girl flees her home, is mistreated on her travels, and is rescued by a eunuch in another city. They both become important political players.

1Hi, welcome to SF&F. Does this take place in a fantasy world? What are the fantasy elements of the story?– DavidWCommented May 23 at 22:10

Sounds a bit like Wilbur Smith's River God in his Ancient Egypt series. I don't remember the young girl being mistreated, but she is owned as slave by a powerful eunuch in the Pharaoh's service and becomes a political figure IIRC.– bob1Commented May 24 at 0:37

Longshot, but Empress, by Karen Miller, fits the vague shape. Any more detail you could add would help– RadhilCommented May 24 at 1:56

This is a list of all novels on IFSDB with "Rachel" in the author's name. But it's a long list!– John RennieCommented May 24 at 8:00
