Innocence Undone (Kingsland) Kindle Edition
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.

"Kat Martin keeps on getting better and better...A premiere historical writer."--Affaire de Coeur
About the Author
Kat Martin’s bestselling novels include Nothing But Velvet and the Raines of Wind Canyon Series—Against the Wind, Against the Fire, and Against the Law. Her book Silk and Steel was nominated for a RITA Award. She is a graduate of the University of California, where she majored in Anthropology and History, a background that helped to develop her interest in the past. "I love anything old," she says. "I especially love to visit the settings for my books. My husband and I often stay in out-of-the-way inns and houses built in times past. It's fun and it gives a wonderful sense of a bygone era."

- Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2005This 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.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 4, 2013I 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.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 26, 2014Very 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.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2014I 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.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2013Good read. Would have been better with more villainy and hero storyline. To much going on with other couples with better storyline then what original was
- Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2021Everything I desire in an HR. Loved the story. Loved the characters.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2018This book was great. Hard to put down and do you duties. I would recommend to all adults . Great read.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 22, 2002This 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.
