The Time of the Hunter's Moon | Victoria Holt
10 posts | 20 read | 5 to read
"One of the supreme writers of gothic romance, a compelling storyteller whose gripping novels have thrilled millions."RT Book Reviews Rumors. Murder. Fortune. Lies. According to legend, a girl will see her future husband at the time of the hunter's moon. But when the handsome stranger revealed to Cordelia Grant disappears after an all-too-brief encounter, she has to wonder: Was he merely an apparition...or something more? The memory of her mysterious gentleman continues to haunt Cordelia when Sir Jason Verringer comes calling. It's rumored the dashing land baron murdered his wife and mistress. But Cordelia knows, better than anyone, not to believe in society gossip. And there's no denying that Jason is dangerously compelling. Her future hinges on one choice. One man is her destiny. The other is her demise.

Are you @#$% kidding me??? The 'heroine' LITERALLY MARRIES HER NEAR-RAPIST BECAUSE THEY 'CHALLENGE' EACH OTHER.

What. In the actual. Fuck. This was written in 1983, y'all. Not 1953. Come. On.
Even if it were written in 1953, it would make me throw up in my mouth. No, thank you.

Butterfinger Laura and Luke happened in the 80s. He did rape her. 3y
Butterfinger I totally agree with what you are saying. I always hated that storyline from General Hospital. For some reason, they became popular and a super couple and it still bothers me. 3y
BookNerdMama Right?? And Bride of Pendorric and Mistress of Mellyn were great! 3y

The moon was gorgeous last night, and I‘ve got my crystals outside and ready to charge. 🖤

Meaw_catlady The moon has been so good for 3 days !! So big and beautiful!! I just put 2 mason jars of water on my windowsill to soak up that full moon energy!! Blessings sister 🖤 4y

Finished

A tale of suspense, one in which I was rooting for the wrong man; Holt did a great job with her red herrings! And it‘s a romance, so all turned out well in the end.

LeahBergen Look at that oldie paperback! ❤️ 5y
CrowCAH @LeahBergen yup from 1985; complete with yellow pages! 5y
