Alternate option:
in Sigil/Notepad++ or other software allowing RegExp search/replace mode, and in that mode:
1. replace ([a-z])'([a-z]) with \1<unused char/string>\2 -- almost every apostrophe "escaped" to the <unused char/string> of your choice
2. check for expression like " 'em " in your text, at need, replace each of them with " <unused char/string>em " ...
Now, in normal Mode:
3. Follow Jellby 's previous post to switch " and '
4. Restore <unused char/string> to ' .

If right quote/apostrophe are curly, steep 2. is only for those.
