Yes I just have! It's entitled THE HOUSE ON BLACKSTONE MOOR and it is written as a gothic romance novel but dark themed.
It's a tale of vampirism, madness, obsession and devil worship set in 19 the Century England.
here's a link for the book trailer:

I read some years ago that the gothic romance genre more or less had its day and I felt awful about it.
I love the gothic narrative as a reader and writer, i just feel perhaps the same type of fiction, with stronger, darker themes might bring it back into mass appeal again.
