Breanna is another favorite of mine. Loved the story and happy that there was a happy ending for all of the characters. Fell in love with her characters and her writing.

I really liked this book. Its about a man whose wife decides its a good idea to reform a cruel woman when they find out their son has taken in one of the victims of her cruelty. She is first made to wear a diaper and be a young child to teach her the all consuming love of a child. It also switches to Aryannas pov the girl that the son reforms. There may be some love involved too. I loved the ending

I thought this story was weird. Hayse characters were attempting to use Freudian theory as an explanation for age play. The age play and spanking was purely for discipline. There was one erotic scene, which held promise but much was left to the imagination.

Good story, but not my favorite Breanna Hayse story. I liked Eliza's reformation better than Ary's; perhaps because she needed it more. Will read again.

I have all of Hayse' stories but this one made me stop. Usually the characters are treated strictly and without variation. Rules are unquestioningly enforced. What I found here was one girl treated kindly with more rewards of gentleness, verbal praise and forgiven poor behavior because of background experiences, with the other girl treated with immediate punishment for poor behavior with no forgiveness, gentleness, or explanations or forgiveness given because of consideration to background experiences. I even wanted Ryan to apologize with more intensity than he displayed. I wanted Mama to explain why she was so tough on Eliza. I felt Papa got it right. The relationship of the parents was a wonderful example of what the couples had to look forward to for themselves. By the second read, I was sold on this story.

review This was an interesting story, which had a strong plot and good characterization. I can't say I enjoyed reading the different methods of punishment, because I didn't. I found it quite horrific at times, but I guess that was the author's goal and she did it very well. I didn't find this an easy read but it was definitely well worth reading. Overall I found 'The Reformer' an enjoyable read.

This story is a sweet story of trust and reform. The reformer proves to be a worthy and kind man who treats the poor abused girl with gentleness. I loved how the author also reformed the wicked headmistress in this story as well. This is a story I will read again.

Rarely do I give a rating of 5 stars but this book deserves it and more! A beautifully written, well developed story of love, redemption and forgiveness, this book tells the tale of three women and the men who helped them ti d their true inner beauty. The age play elements were not overdone. The spankings were well placed and meaningful to the storyline. I cannot say enough praise about this book. Breanna Hayse has her best work yet.

"""I very much enjoyed this book. Very well written and Breanna always has such lovely plot and characters in her books. Here was a variety to choose from. From the awfull headmistress to the young russian orphan girl. I myself would have a subtitle Do over. I can and will give her my very best support."""

I enjoyed this book but found there to be too many plots to form a decent story. Aryanna has been sent from an academy for troubled young women to Ryan who is a reformer. Ryan's parents Brigit and Gerard met when Brigit suffered the same fate, with Gerard as her reformer. There are still some learning moments in their marriage and they reminisce about their start. Eliza Woods, has been removed as the headmistress of Aryanna's school due to her abusive punishments to the students. She has also been assigned to a reformer who just happens to be Gerard. Aryanna is forced to socialize with Eliza whom she is terrified of due to the beatings she gave her at school. They become best friends rather quickly. All of this happens in less than one-hundred and fifty pages.

Love, love, love this story! I'm not sure which characters I loved more - Aryanna and Lord Ryan or Gerard and Brigit (aka Mama and Papa). Then there is Eliza who not only learns forgiveness from her Papa, but teaches it to us too as we go from hating her to loving her. Amazing story! Once again BH works her magic by creating unique discipline relationships that are believable and captivating. I can't wait to read more from her!

Totally enjoyed this kick ass book!..so well written..Aryanna goes from a tortured soul to a well rounded young lady under the care of her reformer who loved her from the start.
Lizzie went from a mean old headmistress to a loving dear friend under her reformer..she learned to love and be loved.
The men in this book were mm mm good

OK, it is official now---I love Breanna Hayse books!
I liked her before, but she just keeps getting better!
I really enjoyed the ageplay and in The Reformer you actually have two parts going on at the same time!
Love it!

Sometimes Ms. Hayse gets so into what's happening that her storytelling's simply a series of events linked together by common characters in an inevitable plot. Sometimes wonder if she includes so many characters so she doesn't have to look at any of them too closely. Quick read. Fun afternoon - but nothing memorable.

This was okay, nicely written and the family relationships were well done. Personally I found it all a little too neat, I like more conflict between the main players, Aryanna and Ryan and emotional plot lines. I don't feel like we learned a lot about him and Aryanna felt flat, childish. Could have used more spanking, that felt sparse.

This is one of those stories that draws you in and you can sense that it can go one of two ways. It can be all harshness and hurt or it can be about relationship and healing. This story heads to the place of healing, forgiveness, and love. It finishes leaving you with feeling of hope and happiness.

Best book yet from Breanna. The plot along with the interaction between the characters had me unable to put the book down. It was page turner from page one and I especially loved the high amount of ageplay in this one. Keep them coming Breanna hayse.

Another amazing and very original story from Breanna Hayse. This book is amazing. So much going on. Several different couples and I loved getting to know all of them. There were lots of hot scenes of course and as always with Breannas books, a message to be learned.

This is a well written book set in the Victorian era. I enjoyed the story and appreciated the plot as it has some depth. The characters are memorable and believable for this time period. BH is one of my favorite authors and this book lived up to my expectations. I was pleased with the HEA as well :)
