Menfreya in the Morning | 
pickA feast of unabashed gothic-romantic fun. It's told in Holt's inimitably captivating way. I was in a state of constant angst while reading this and I LOVED every minute. There was never a dull moment. The suspense and emotion was intoxicating and although I thought I had predicted the ending, I was completely surprised by the actual turn of events. It was filled with twists and turns only a true lover of gothic romance would appreciate.
