Review: An interesting read, but a bit harsh

An unruly tongue is an interesting period book. It's set in Colonial America and the main character, Hester, is something of a shrew. When she insults another woman in the community she's taken to task by the leaders and it is determined the there husband, Caleb, should punish her or be banished from the community.So far so good, but the punishment quickly becomes extreme and very sexual. From what I read about the Colonial period, these people were pretty uptight, so this didn't really ring all that true for me. However, this is called erotic fiction for a reason and realism can waived for the sake of titillation. The spankings are very well described and if you like harsh punishment it's in abundance in this book. Just be warned that it's pretty harsh.
