Molly Green has one more chance to secure the future she has always dreamed of and that chance just happens to be at Rawhide University. But when the realization of what she is facing comes crashing down on her, it becomes too much and Molly falls back on old habits. Now Molly’s only hope is to submit to a humbling punishment at the hands of the sexiest man she has ever laid eyes on.
Grant Masters is at the Ranch for one reason, to battle burn out so that he can finally earn his PHD, but as he gets comfortable in his role as Rawhide University’s resident disciplinarian, his focus begins to change. Now he is determined to show Molly the error of her ways and see her succeed. Will Molly be able to see the punishment for what it is or will Grant push her too far and send her running from the Ranch?
Tucked in the countryside with her family and numerous stuffies, Allie Belle writes the stories she has always wanted to read. She loves the idea of being a Little to a strong, stern Daddy and explores the dynamic in every way she can.
When not writing, you can find her snuggled under her princess blanket with her kindle or watching trashy reality TV.
This was my review when this story was part of Dirty Daddies: 2020 Anniversary Anthology. One of my top five pet peeves in this genre is treating someone with an addiction as A) Deserving of punishment, and B) Undeserving of therapy:
“Mastering Little Molly”/Allie Belle: College student Molly enters Rawhide Ranch University for “rehabilitation.” It’s impossible to take any story seriously that depicts marijuana as the gateway drug to hell; even if it were, addiction is a disease, not bad behavior deserving of punishment. This story is a slap in the face to anyone who has ever battled substance abuse. Note: The DD/lg elements here include enemas and diapers, and are used as punishment because, I don't know, a supposedly well-respected kink club thinks that forced Age Play is the answer to a debilitating disease? What could possibly go wrong? 1 star.
ETA: I see that the blurb does not -- as so often happens with these books -- indicate that this is a re-release. Another reason to 1 star since this is something readers deserve to know.
Molly is a Little who is unaware she is one. Grant is the Daddy for her.
Molly is having trouble in college. She is relying on green as a coping mechanism. She is kicked out of school for going overboard. Her last chance for Law School is Rawhide Ranch.
Grant is having burn out with studying. He has just finished his Masters of Psychology. Before he starts on his Doctoral program, he makes a call to his good friend, Derek at Rawhide Ranch to take a break. He is talked into working with the students as a disciplinarian.
This is one of the most reliable stories of this series.
The heroine is not cured at the end. She is shown still trying to cope, but with help, she can get her HEA.. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

It makes for an interesting read and I recommend it for readers who likes age play. My only issue with the story is that the h was NOT into age play and it still was forced on her as a way to improve her behavior and attitude. If you're not into that , then you are not. It's not a magic wand to improve behaviors. It could even be traumatic. (Imagine an adult woman being put in diapers and hold a binki when she has no interest in regression!) Otherwise, the story was well written without redundancy or extra unnecessary pages and the characters are really lovable..

A good read! It is well-developed, This author did not disappoint. This novel reached out and grabbed me from the very first page and did not let go until the very last. The characters are likeable; the chemistry between them is instant and off the charts. Definitely recommended!
I was getting into the story, when it came to me. Some time in the distant past when I had first tried reading the type of stories I had read this book. It was well worth the time it took to read it again. I am not young, middle aged, or even in the best years of my life. This story I remembered opened up a torrent of personal pain and loss. I have achieved much in m life, as they say in old westerns I have seen the elephant, and lived to tell about it. Molly was the door keeper that opened my eyes to what could have been. Hay this sounds like a phsy. paper. What my long winded story is trying to say. Grant and Molly opened my eyes to a world of love between two imaginary people, in and imaginary story that can reach out and fill a lonely person's heart. Usually I will not wright a review of a book, just telling someone who checks out the reviews , and might find mine to check it out for them selves and I very seldom give a book more then 4 stars. Molly found she could reach out and deal with stress with out drugs, she could do the relaxing actions which Grant took the time to teach her. So now comes the hard part I have to let Molly and Grant go, move on to a ring tale western about Preacher and Smoke. Molly will not be far from my thoughts as I settle in with a hot cup of tea, a piece of NY cheese cake and a soft smile for Molly and friends in my imagination. Oh yes forgive the poor spelling, I spell with sound and not letters most of the time.
Mastering Little Molly is an extremely well written, sweet and touching ddlg romance dealing with some very real issues. I really love the premise for this story, its honest take on the reason behind bad habits and the alternative coping mechanisms it presents. I must confess that this book took me way out of my comfort zone, not because of the enema- diaper- and binky-play (which is nominally not my thing - I like my book littles less regressed, though that is really a matter of taste and preference), but because Molly is so relatable that my emotions followed hers. The characters are so extremely well built and the plot just as well executed that the reader gets sucked into the story and on the roller coaster ride of uncomfortably contradicting emotions as the plot unfolds. I was uncomfortable because I really felt Molly and when understanding of the whys dawned, it made for the most satisfying ending. Mastering Little Molly is a book with depth, meaning and kink beautifully intertwined. It really pushed my boundaries but was well worth it and made for an enjoyable and satisfying read.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story. It was very upbeat and positive and addressed a problem that is prevalent throughout the world, but this time it affects Molly who is facing not being able to finish her degree so she can become a lawyer. Having addictions is hard but also knowing that the addictions are harmful but not able to cope without them has Molly being expelled from her university. Her ex-boyfriend helps her to find somewhere that will teach her discipline as well as able to finish her degree. When she arrives at rawhide ranch she is about to learn a whole new way of life but also receive the discipline that she needs, which she finds at the hands of Grant who is the discipline director. What starts off as a punishment for her, turns into an everlasting love and a happily ever after.

Molly’s life is spiraling out of control. She’s messed up one too many times and gets kicked out of college. With a goal of law school, her last resort is Rawhide University. Too high to pay attention, she does the application online and gets accepted right away. Grant is looking for a break from school before his PhD and wants to spend some time at the ranch. Derek offers him a job, hoping he will stay permanently. Molly is his first test as Master of the Dorms and loves every challenge she gives him. Loved this book from the beginning. All of Molly’s self-doubts make you really think about how you see yourself. Every girl needs a Grant to reinforce and see the truth of what they can do. Great book!.

Molly gets kicked out of school 2 weeks before the semester ends but the bigger problem is she has a year left before she can apply to Law School. She’s got to figure something out before her father cuts everything off. Molly’s ex Bryce shows her only option & helps her apply to Program at Rawhide Ranch. Grant Chambers just finished his masters in psychology & needs a break but the place he wants to be; Rawhide Ranch is booked solid. Grant has two options to stay at the big house with his friend Master Derek Hawkins, or take up Derek on his Job offer as Dorm moderator & disciplinarian for the college dorms at the Ranch. Could Rawhide Ranch be what Molly & Grant both need.
First I love the Rawhide Ranch collections. Molly wants to be a lawyer, but because of her behaviors she is being kicked out. So being high she applies to Rawhide University and she gets accepted. Well it is not what she expected. They have a disciplinarian to dish out punishments and that would be Grant. Grant is studying for PHD and was burnt out so he decides a little rest and relaxation at the Rawhide Ranch and it worked out for both of them. Molly received what she needed and Grant may have found what he wanted. Great story with wonderful characters that are relatable. Well written and very entertaining. .

The Rawhide Ranch series has always been a favorite of mine. And Allie didn’t let me down! This story was very emotional. Molly has had a rough life and her choices led her down a very dark path. She had no where else to turn so she decided to try Rawhide Ranch. That turned out to be the biggest life changing event in her life. With Grant’s love, determination and a lot discipline, Molly blooms into an amazing Little and achieves goals she was never able to obtain on her own. This story has so much emotion. And I feel that it is relatable. Even if we don’t struggle with the same addiction we all struggle with something and this story shows us that we can overcome those things!!.

Grant is burnt out from school. He just received his Master's in Psychology but the clinical term really drained him. But a trip to Rawhide Ranch not only gives him a break but he also gets a job from Derek.
Molly has really dug herself a hole. She wants to become a lawyer but that's not possible when you just got yourself kicked out of college. But Rawhide Ranch just might be exactly what she needs.
I loved how these two were able to be exactly what the other needed.
Grant nurtured Molly in such a way that she was able to find better coping skills. And Molly kept the sass coming, not too much and not too little.
Allie Belle wrote a real winning story in Mastering Little Molly. You won't want to put it down.
Grant starts this story as the new harass disciplinarian in Rawhide Branch's college wing. In the end, he finds his own Little Girl. Grant shows a different side of himself as he becomes the wonderful, strong, loving Daddy Dom that Molly Green needs so badly. Molly has always turned to her drug habit to help her cope with her anxiety and stress, but Grant teaches her new ways to handle her issues without faltering. Grant teacher her without judgement or making her feel bad about herself. This book touched me in a way none other has. Thank you Alike Belle!
I wasn't too sure about Molly when I first started reading this one. She's problematic and being a recovered addict I struggled reading about someone who was turning to substances as a way to cope. However, I kept reading because I love Allie Belle's books and trust her as a writer. I'm so glad I did. It was amazing to watch Molly find someone who could help her heal and show her that she didn't need substances to feel better. Along the way she helps Grant heal. It's always wonderful to dive into an emotion grabbing love story and reach a HEA, and that's the experience I had while reading this one.
Love the storyline. Molly is having trouble in college. She ends up pushing one to many times and finally gets kicked out. Her last chance for Law School is Rawhide Ranch. Grant is facing burnout and needs some time to recoup before hid starts his Doctoral Program. He goes to Rawhide Ranch for a semester as a disciplinarian. These two are just what the other needed. Grant ends up nurturing Molly by becoming the strong Daddy that she needs and she finds better skills to cope with her anxiety and stress than drugs. This book hits really close to home. .

Such a fun and delightful story! Every Rawhide Ranch story I read always leaves me feel in warm and fuzzy! This time it’s about Molly, a young girl who needs some guidance and discipline in her life. Who better to show her the way, Grant, a resident disciplinarian. When he meets Molly for the first time, he knows in his heart that she is the one for him. Molly on the other hand isn’t so sure about his methods of discipline. I really enjoyed their witty interactions and enjoyed reading about how Molly comes to know her true self. This story was so good, I read it in one sitting! A definite must read for all!
I have to say that I am not a fan of Molly's habit and I almost put the book down but it was only one instance and once it was past, I really enjoyed the story. I loved that once Molly's Little side came out she did embrace it (the gift shop and the playground). Grant is a good Daddy and falls quickly for the new student while trying to keep her out of trouble. The author also included an epilogue (I see epilogues as the cherry on top of a great story) with a short time skip to let us know what happens with our characters. Grab this and enjoy!
I enjoyed reading this hot, sweet and sexy well written story. It's more real than the other stories as it tells about drugs and anxiety. There are plenty of hot erotic sexy scenes. All the characters are real and rounded. Grant is a lost Daddy expecting little. Molly is also lost and floundering. They need each other. This story is age-play at its best and I very highly recommend it. A real page-turner.
I was very confused at first because this story seemed very familiar. After glancing at a few of the reviews, I understood this was originally included in an anthology that I had read a while back. In fact, it was my very first Rawhide Ranch story and I quickly became a fan of the entire series. I like this expanded version even more than the original novella!
Molly really needed to be taken in hand, and Rawhide Ranch University was just the place to go to get the discipline that she needed. Grant was the perfect daddy to take her in hand and teach her the error of her ways. This book was part of an anthology, so I knew I had read it before but this is an extended version. Highly recommended!. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Does Rawhide Ranch have some kind of magic? When life gets difficult Molly finds herself at Rawhide Ranch under Grant’s care. Can what starts as a way to learn new coping strategies turn into more? It just might lead to love.

Molly was a rambunctious college student and she was Leah’s getting trouble. She finally got thrown out of college. A friend suggested she apply at Rawhide Ranch and she was accepted. Grant was needing a break from his studies before he started back and he called his best friend Derek to see if they had an opening for him and Derek put him to work. Now what kind of trouble could Molly get in a the ranch university. Now you will have to read to find out. Enjoy
Finding her way Molly ended up at Rawhide Ranch College because of all the problems she had at her previous school. Drugs, partying and finally getting kicked out of school. Her parents were so disappointed that they cutoff all financial assistance. Because she got into so much trouble at Rawhide Ranch, Masters Derek and Grant, they came up with a special punishment for her and it was exactly what she needed. Great story and great characters.
This was a great feelgood book. I loved grant and mollys relationship. I wish we could have seen her at school a bit more to see what she was like there after discovering her little with grant. I loved the way molly learned to handle her anxiety. You don't see many ddlg books with anxiety in them and this was definitely told well
This was a perfect addition to the Rawhide Ranch family. Can be read as a stand-alone, but for anyone who enjoys the Dd/lg books or who has been following the Rawhide Ranch books I would read them in order, so you don't miss any - especially this one.

Well for starters this book was great 😁 Seeing Molly go through her story with the help of her Daddy was amazing. The characters are relatable to things a normal person faces and it's great to see them overcome with triumph. I love stories with happy endings. .

The freedom of dorm life went to her head, and it’s going to take a firm hand for her to graduate on time. So she enrolls in an unconventional college dorm, and finds something she didn’t even realize that she wanted. Happy Reading!
This was another great book in this series that I got through in a single sitting. I loved how he took her under his wing and how she grew under his protection and as his little. She struggled but once she embraced her little side she made such progress. I can't wait for the next book.
This is a sweet ddlg age play romance. Character, Molly especially, are complex and show a wide range of emotions. Some realistic issues are touch apon in the story. Molly and Grant have a compelling and captivating story.
