I really enjoyed this historical romance.  Melanie is a mail order bride that is escaping her past and looking forward to a new life.  Reeve is looking for a wife to settle down with and start a family.  They both feel the chemistry between each other immediately.  However Melanie is to ashamed and humiliated about her past to share it with her husband Reeve.  She is afraid she won’t want her because of her past.  She continues to lie and keep secrets.  Reeve knows she is hiding something but can’t get her to share with him.  Eventually though Melanie realizes the emotional toll her past is having on her.  She also doesn’t like the invisible barrier that it has created between Reeve and her.  Reeve is strict but loving with her.  He is not afraid to spank her when she gets sassy or disobedient.  Melanie decides she has to come clean and be honest with Reeve about her past.  Reeve surprises her with his reaction.  She learns that he loves her for who she is and not for what she had to do to survive.  A well written, beautiful love story.
