Modern Gothic Romances/Books Like "Rebecca"

Can anyone recommend newer books that are Gothic romances and are available as ebooks? I have collected (and even read ) a lot of the older Gothics -- Victoria Holt, Phyllis Whitney, etc. Sadly, most of those aren't in ebook format, except for some Jennifer blake books. So for now, I'm looking for ebook reprints of older Gothics, and as well as newer books along those lines, such as indie-published Gothic romances.

By Gothic romance, I mean stories along the lines of Jane Eyre and Rebecca, covers with governesses running out of manor houses in their nightgowns while a single light shines in a distant window, that sort of thing. (See this blog for cool Gothic cover art.) Not romances about people read Gothic Beauty magazine. Although that would be cool to read, too.

I am also re-reading Du Maurier's Rebecca, and I'd love to know if anyone can suggest something along those lines? I love those "haunted by his dead wife" stories.
