I have become an avid Victoria Holt reader. Her books are delightful with wonderful endings, but full of twists and mysteries. On the night of the seventh moon was very different from the mistress of mellyn. It started out kind of slow and was very odd until the middle when it started to get better. It was the story of a girl who met a mysterious man in the forest of germany and then met him by chance again and was married to him. But an untruthful act by those closest to her makes her believe she imagined the romance. It took her nine years to discover the truth and finally live her happily ever after. Betrayal, mystery, and chance all come together to make a book full of twists that will suprise you till the end. I did however guess at some of the things that were going to happen and proved myself correct. This was a good read and i recommend it to any romantic.
