A Darker Virginia Holt...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
I never realized that Phillippa Carr is Virginia Holt (who is also not her real name). This is a bit darker storyline than Holt's gothic. There is violence, and manipulations, and acceptances. This isn't a typical romance, and you're really not sure who to be rooting for. But overall, I was engrossed and engaged... and enjoyed it!
