Victoria never expected to trade in her expensive gowns and jewels for a two-bedroom cabin in frontier Montana and a man that refuses to love any woman, especially a socialite from the East. Victoria has to learn how to go from a house full of servants to a cattle ranch with more chores than time. Will she survive the Montana frontier and the man who intends on taming her fiery temper with a heavy hand?

Promised to a vile man, Victoria Fremont is desperate for a way out, but her father threatens to disown her if she does not follow along with his plans. Victoria's defiance of the life her father has ordered leads her to write to men seeking a mail-order bride, certain the opportunity will not only save her from the nuptials, but also lead to love.

James Ashland is a man dedicated to his Montana cattle ranch. He has found neither time nor inclination to court women. After burying his parents with little grief, he is certain he just does not have the capacity for love or emotion. It is desperation that has him writing an ad in the papers for a mail order bride.

When he sends for Victoria, James expects a woman who will not complicate his life. What he gets is a woman who pushes the boundaries and forces him to face emotions that have long tormented him.

For adults only. Contains domestic discipline, spanking, historical spanking romance, and a mail-order bride.
