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. But when he is pressured to help find Lady Elena, he can’t refuse—the distraught father is also his wife’s uncle. 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.…

Surprisingly very good...
Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2012Verified Purchase
This book was in my maybe/maybe not list of books to purchase for some time. Although I'm a fan of Emma Wildes' work, I'm not a fan of two romance stories in one, and that's the reason why I found this book surprisingly good. There are two couples in this novel. The problem with this setup I've found in other books is that I usually become engaged in only one couple and therefore I skip essentially half the book. However, I was equally engaged with both couples in this book, and I thought the author did a good job of connecting both stories. That being said, this book was a real page turner and I finished it in a day. It does leave you on a bit of a cliffhanger and I for one can't wait to read the next book.

Great plot twist
Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2012Verified Purchase
I liked this book! The plot twist was great. I've seen the drugged and left together device before but someone always came in to verify that the couple was together. This was a new and different concept. After the first few chapters I was trying to figure out, who did it and why. Great story and background story. Or course the mystery of who is behind it all is going to keep me reading, I'm so curious.
The characters were well defined and the women were smart - that is so good, vapid heroines are a drag. The storyline did drag in a few places but it was overall a great and engaging read.
I can't say a lot about the plot because it would spoil it for everyone, just know that it's very well structured. Enjoy!

Delightful, sensual and one of the most romantic books I've ever read
Reviewed in the United States on October 8, 2012Verified Purchase
Ruined by Moonlight is fabulous! Absolutely fabulous. The climactic ending is one of the most romantic, if not the most romantic scene I have ever enjoyed reading. I've already re-read the book and re-read the final confrontation between the fiance, the Rake and the Ruined Diamond of the First Water--and I must tell you, if this book were a movie, I'd be replaying that scene over and over. The tale is splendid and unique. The writing is lovely, the four protagonists are extremely interesting and the mystery quite real rather than a mere familiar plot device. Well done Ms. Wildes! I already have the second installment on pre-order!
