Who are your favorite romance authors??

Are they starting to re-release some of the Victoria Holt novels (similar to what they've been doing with the books she wrote as Jean Plaidy)? I noticed Mistress of Mellyn on the new paperbacks table at the bookstore and wondered if more of these old ones of hers would be released. I'm tempted to start collecting them.

I think about four of them have been republished (all of which I have!) with lovely new covers.

I'm in the US where so far only Mistress of Mellyn has been reissued. I did find this articlethat says there are plans for more reissues from St. Martin's Press. Bride of Pendorric will be next.

Nona, have you tried anything by Phyllis Whitney? If you like romantic mysteries with gothic elements, you might like hers. I remember liking quite a few of hers back when I was gobbling up books by Mary Stewart and Victoria Holt.
