I was so excited to visit with the Turner's again and this newest addition to the series didn't disappoint. Birthing Balls sees the crazy Turner family through two pregnancies and naturally, chaos is bound to happen. Momma Turner, Dora, is prominent in this one and that's always a treat as she gets herself into some sticky situations. Like the rest of the series, Birthing Balls is witty and fun, and it's absolutely hilarious. With two pregnancies, celebrating a recent wedding, planning an upcoming wedding, a bumbling admirer and his unwanted advances, and nutty Dora trying to find her place, the story is one laugh after another and perfect for light-hearted pick me up.
Each book can be read as a standalone, but I would recommend reading in order, so you don't miss out on any of this wacky family's antics. The books are all quick, fun reads that can easily be read in one sitting, which is a good thing because I couldn't put this one down!
After collecting his fathers life insurance, Conrad and his wife, Jo, move to a former birthing house to rehab their marriage and get out of LA. However the house may have come with a little more than they bargained for. Is the house haunted, or is Conrad just losing his mind following his father's unexpected death?
I wanted to read horror, thriller, suspense book. Instead I got this, which is so sad. This was such a mess, I really should have DNFed it. However since I didn't, I feel very confident in my rating. This book read like it didn't have an editor or was a first draft, and then in sections it really read like a porn. Seriously at one point there was some very graphic sex but it was written in the most awkward and unappealing way that I couldn't help but roll my eyes and laugh and how smarmy it felt.
Overall the characters were pretty terrible. Conrad is flat and also apparently is the author which he take the time to tell us in the middle of the book. No, literally he brakes the fourth wall and says something along the lines of "Because you've figured out he is me" in a weird monologue in the middle of the book. His wife Jo isn't consistent in the personality traits that Conrad puts on her. Holly's story isn't cleanly or interestingly placed into the story. Nadia, the other main character, is such a weird throw away for the most part but also crucial to build the haunted house. Also in the last like 30ish pages we find out about the doctor and women that ran the birthing house that maybe haunting the house. Everything about the house's history is really rushed causing the book to lose a lot of the potential creep factor. I wish we had started to get parts of the house's history peppered through the book instead so that we could have time for the creepy vibe to develop and given us more time to wonder if the house is haunted or if it's Conrad's mental status.
Please just skip this book, I wish I would have.
Did this shit book just get really meta in the middle?
This book is the worst, I thought I heard someone talking about it as a good horror book but I'm sure now after scouring the places I find book recommendations that I was wrong and have this confused with some other book. Though I don't know what book that would be, and this book is sooooo bad.
The Archers of Kynthos by K.M. Harty
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
My name is emblazoned on this book and it's my first story prompt. How cool is that?
This story is based on my first ever story prompt. I finally had the courage to try writing one this year for Love's Landscapes the M/M Romance Group's yearly story prompt and writing event where both readers and writers come together creating countless free stories for the benefit of M/M fans.
Since I am those extra deviant type, I had to try my luck fishing for a story that blends two taboo erotica themes together; Tentacle Sex + Mpreg. In my case, it's the best of both worlds for me. Truthfully I have been waiting around for such a story to happen yet I couldn't find any so far. I knew I had to take take matters into own hands for the birth of such sexual boundaries pushing story and hope for it to be a catalyst to bring forth more of such stories in future.

MY STORY PROMPT:
I have hidden my prompt under this spoiler tag for the benefit of shortening the lenght of this review. (This is NOT A SPOILER. So click click click):
Dear Author,
He has been down here for a couple of days already, he could tell by the streams of lights through the small openings high up surrounding the edges of the high wall. At first he thought it would be stuffy and hot, curiously it was rather cold. Must be the damp packed-earth wall around him. The wall was at least several metres high. Even so that was not the only deterrence stopping him from leaving this prison he was unceremoniously dumped into. He knew that he would be a permanent fixture here unless someone sees fit to release him from the sturdy chain attached to the iron collar resting on his neck.
They would come in two or three persons at fixed intervals each day to provide him with sustenance and attend to his personal grooming. He had no idea why they are fastidious about his cleanliness and health. He couldn't shake of the ominous feeling that he was being fatten up like a lamb before a sacrifice.
What I wish for in this story:
I want this to be a Tentacles MPREG story (Tent-sex + Mpreg). A non-con struggly forced breeding with impregnation of a handsome MC and his struggles to adapt to his pregnancy. If you are brave enough, an on the page birth scene would be a big plus.
I am not one to demand for HEA/HFN as I detest those unnatural/forced HEAs the most. To me, as long as the ending fits well with the story, a tragedy is a big welcome too.
I love angst in my stories and I hope the MC isn't too whiny or TSTL.
A huge thank you in advance for picking up this story.
Sincerely,
Kynthos-the-Archer
HERE'S MY FEEDBACK ON THE STORY:
I am going to draw a list here on the important parts.
~ Captivity/Confinement: All is well here other than why on earth did they need to be so abusive to the protagonist since he is someone the captor deemed as utmost importance and worth? Shouldn't he be pampered and kept safe for their later depraved usage?
~ Forced Breeding/Impregnation: Rough. Plain torture. There wasn't much details on the impregnation process just rough painful fucking.
~ Tentacle Sex: Uh oh, it didn't trigger my happy button here. Zero erection. Being a tentacles sex fan, getting aroused by those rapey perverted tentacles is a MUST. It's the climax of reading tentacles erotica. Sadly this was more of a horrific torture event than an arousing encounter. Besides I was really hoping for some forced orgasm action especially those forced multiple orgasm. It's unfortunate the tentacle sex here was used as a torture tool instead. Obviously it's a turn-off for tentacle sex fans since we would naturally look for the sensual and erotic appeal of tentacle sex.
It was quite disappointing that the tentacles creature did not make any other appearances after that rape scene which was in the early chapter. And there's no longer any mention of it throughout the story. It serves merely as tool to produce that singular tentacle sex scene. Yet I did see it as a blessing as the poor MC need not suffer anymore excruciating sex. I would sing a different tune if that tentacle sex was orgasmic though.
~ Male Pregnancy on troubled waters: Love the way the MC struggles to adapt with his pregnancy; trying to come to term with his bizarre situation. Watching his coping mechanism alienates him from the baby in his womb. The explanation on how the pregnancy could occur was a bit vague but I do appreciate it was at least there.
~ Birth Scene: On-page birth scene just as I wish for.
But FUCK. It's a freaking natural birth! Not that I don't appreciate it. It's just that I couldn't figure out how exactly the MC's plumbing works now? I've read Mpreg story with natural birth before but at least it was made possible with scientific manipulation and the mechanism was explained. Thing is, this story had left this important part out. So... does the MC even take a shit now? O.o
~ Forced Seduction & Forced Marriage: Not bad, I kinda enjoy the angst here. This is where the story rack up points from me.
Why 4 stars then? Well, irregardless of those niggling issues I still find this story to be engaging and interesting. Especially enjoyed the whole drama between the protagonist and his controlling borderline psychotic lover plus his denial about the whole pregnancy thing kept me reading and wanting more.
I am happy to say that K.M. Harty make it a point to deliver everything I've listed on my story prompt and more. For that, I am deeply grateful and thankful for her effort.

Description:
He was being held down, unable to control the thing that was now on top of him. He didn’t know how many arms, legs or tentacles this thing had, but they were all over him, and in him. With everything that was happening around him, all he was able to do was take what the monster was doing to him. Why they were doing this to him he had no idea, but all he could hope for at this point was death.
This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Love’s Landscapes" event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.

Is that... my name? On a book? On an erotica novel? A mpreg tentacle sex erotica novel with my name plastered on it?
It's very flattering indeed. I am honored. Thanks, KM Harty.
