It's the late 1800s, the suffrage movement is gaining ground, and women are beginning to fight against the accepted roles of housewife and mother. Nalin is one of these women. She is a submissive wife to Carter and desperately longs for motherhood, but she struggles to balance her personality and desires with her belief that women should have equal rights to men. She begins defying all the normal conventions—she wears pants instead of skirts to town, she cusses, and she talks back to her husband. Carter's response is to take his wayward wife over his knee for a sound, bare-bottom spanking. Carter has always been content with the status quo and is frustrated with Nalin's constant defiancé of all things considered ladylike. To his way of thinking, it's his duty to lead and her duty to obey. Nalin quickly discovers that his stubborn opinions about the natural order of things won't be easily changed, although he does come to believe that disciplining his recalcitrant wife is pointless. Her reaction to his declaration, however, surprises them both. Carter and Nalin both want children but have so far suffered more than one devastating loss. They are both thrilled when Nalin becomes pregnant again. However, in addition to having a child, she also wishes to attend the suffrage convention in Dallas. Carter loves his wife, so despite his initial reservations, he agrees to see her safely to the convention and back. Their adventure takes a few twists and turns along the way. Will this couple safely and successfully navigate their way through these turbulent times and find the happily ever after they both deserve?
