Innocence Undone (Kingsland) Kindle Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 251 ratings

A spellbinding classic Kat Martin romance Innocence Undone - available as an ebook for the very first time!

Jessica Fox wasn't always the beautiful, composed young woman who is the toast of the London ton in Regency England. Born in poverty, Jessica wandered the streets until fate found her a guardian in the aging Marquess of Belmore. Now, it is fate she tempts with her longing for the Marquess's son, the arrogant and handsome Captain Mathew Seaton.

Upon his return from the sea, Matthew is forced to confront the sensuous beauty he believes has set her sights on the Belmore title. Though his mind tells him to beware, his blood boils with thoughts of luring her into his bed. To win his love, Jessica will do anything. But when desire flames and the dark shadow of her childhood lengthens, she risks everything she has dreamed of in a dangerous dance of denial.

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Jessica Fox has had a thing for Matthew Seaton, Earl of Strickland, since the days when she was the little hellion he spanked for throwing rotten apples at his clean uniform. The daughter of a prostitute, she should by rights have become one too, but Martin would have us believe that she convinced Matt's father, the Marquess of Belmore, to be her guardian. The old man sent her off to a fashionable boarding school and grew to love her like a daughter. Nothing would please him more than the marriage of the two people he loves most, but Matt has plans for a more sensible connection. A secondary couple is darker and more interesting; but with them, Martin's Regency takes a sordid turn with yet another spanking. Martin (Midnight Rider) eventually manages to get her two couples to the altar and delivers the goods, if in a somewhat predictable manner.

Currently living outside Missoula, Montana and Prescott, Arizona, Kat Martin is the New York Times bestselling author of over seventy-five Historical and Contemporary Romantic Suspense novels.

Kat is a graduate of the University of California at Santa Barbara where she majored in Anthropology and also studied History.

"I love to travel and especially like visiting the places where my books are set," Kat says. "I love history and enjoy spending time in museums and art galleries. My husband and I often stay in out-of-the-way inns and historical houses. It's fun and it gives a wonderful sense of a by-gone era."

To date, Kat has over seventeen million copies of her books in print. She is published in more than two dozen foreign countries, including Germany, France, Norway, Sweden, China, Korea, Bulgaria, Russia, England, South Africa, Italy, Spain, Argentina, Japan and Greece.

    This is the modern world where women are no longer called whores but give themselves freely and no one dares to care. However, the setting of this book is regency and IS treated fairly by Kat Martin. Unfortunately, Jesse is the daughter of a whore. Unfortunately in regency time, people were considered to be like their parents unless proven otherwise-which did happen. I have read many regency books and the attitudes of male and female of the ton are consistant among the authors. Many of the ton did not marry for love or lust. They married to keep the lineage rich, landed, and/or titled. They were the "elite" and did whatever they wanted if they thought they could get away with it-much like royalty today (in fact the many of the ton were in queue for the throne). This book very well shows how people can change. I thought the father was wonderful. His protecting Jesse and wanting his son to be happy showed a lot of depth. His son's attitude was part the product of misconception about his father and stepmother,and part the product of the society as a whole. Kat Martin deserves credit for writing about regency. She shows the attitudes of the day, but she also show that some of the ton had depth to them. The characters are well-rounded and the book has a happy ending. The journey to this ending is well worth the read. In fact, it is one of my rereads.

    I found this book to be fantastic! I loved the book. I haven't read a book I did not like that Kat Martin has written and I have read 27. There was so much involved in this book, so many twists, so many characters, all so interesting. I cried at parts and was angry that he didn't trust Jessie and hurt her so. Maybe I am just a romantic at heart but I loved this story.

    Very good read from start to finish, fast paced, finished in one day. Good dialogue and chemistry between the characters, that's one of the reasons I like Kat's books, nice romance scenes too.

    I really enjoyed this romance. I loved the earnestness and purity of heart Jesse had. Jesse saw a lot more in Matthew than I did, but I loved the fact she never gave up. I thought the author did a good job of weaving in all the different complexities of English society, prejudices, and passion. Sex scenes were tasteful, not too much but enough to draw in. The story stayed on topic. Although there were a lot of subplots, they were fairly undeveloped and the focus remained on Matthew and Jesse. I finished the book in a few hours because I just didn't want to pause.

    This is a cinderella story. A father grieving over the loss of a son adopts a street urchin. He pays for education and transformation into a lady. Jessie has always loved Matt and now that she is a lady she wants to be his wife. Matt's father also wants Matt and Jessie to marry. Matt wants Jessie very much, but he cannot seem to get past the fact that is the daughter of prositute. You go through most of the book before Matt gets drunk enough to kidnap Jessie on her wedding day. They marry to save Jessie's reputation. Jessie feels guilty because she leads Matt to believe that more happen the night of the kidnapping that what really did. Matt is guilty because of what he did. A brush with death convinces Matt that he loves Jessie and most tell her. My one gripe with the story is that when Jessie's past comes out, she doesn't stay and fight she runs away. Since she jas fought so hard to gain what she has, this seemed out of character.
