What is society to do when the diamonds of the first water are caught in compromising situations, one after the other? Can the young ladies survive the season with their reputations intact…or will the scandalous whispers surrounding them bring about the ultimate ruination? When Lady Elena Morrow, the reigning belle of the ton, suddenly disappears, her family is desperate to find her—and to keep the story from spreading through London society like wildfire, before her reputation is ruined. Unfortunately, it may be impossible to avoid a scandal. Viscount Andrews, better known as the Raven, London’s most notorious rake, has gone missing at exactly the same moment. Benjamin Wallace, Lord Heathton, is more accustomed to untangling political difficulties, rather than those of the heart.

Now he must find the beautiful debutante before the connection to Andrews does away with her innocence—assuming the vulnerable young lady wants to be found.…

Closer to 3.5 stars.My interest in historical romances has waned to the point that I pretty much pass them by unless they are written by an handful of long-time favorite authors. But for some reason the blurb on this one caught my attention.The only other book by Emma Wildes that I have read is [b:L...
I can't make my mind up if this is a 3 or a 4 star. At first I wasn't sure I would like the story following basically 2 couples instead of the usual 1. But that turned out not to be an issue and it flowed nicely between the 2. What bugged me a lot was the changing of the story of how Ran's parents d...
★★★★☆ Not bad, but not my favorite by this author. Loved the set-up and didn’t mind two love stories being told. Like the characters in both twosomes. It is not easy to make a married couple’s love life intriguing, but Ms. Wildes pulls it off. However, the why of it all is to be found in the re...
SweetNão é o melhor trabalho da Emma Wildes, mas é bem fofo!Como sempre ela nos presentei com duas histórias. As duas com o mesmo grau de importância ao meu ver. Mas ela a priori - na resenha oficial do livro, destaca o romance entre Visconde Andrews, Ran, e Lady Elena. Ele um super libertino - mas ...
