Bride of Pendorric: The Classic Novel of Romantic Suspense, by Victoria Holt

3.0

This is probably the 2nd or 3rd book by Victoria Holt that I am reading even though I love Gothic romance genre but somehow Victoria Holt's books has not captured my interest as much as all the other authors in this genre. I can still go back to read Phyllis A Whitney's or Mary Stewart's books anytime with utter glee and rapture and I think it's mostly my fault because Ms. Holt's Bride of Pendorric was absolutely delightful if one loves reading these kind of books. But there was an element of spark missing so it was making me feel bored rather than happy with the usual large mansion, creepy atmosphere, distant husband and menace around the heroine milieu.
