Diana always knew that Minotaurs were real, but she never wanted to meet one. Their lust for human women is legendary. And the aftermath tends to be…messy. Lake Eerie campus is supposed to be safe, but now there’s nowhere for Diana to run. Lucky for her, while the Minotaur may have the head of a bull, he also has the heart of a man… If he caught me... The stories about what happened when a human woman met a Minotaur were exacting in their detail. I held my breath and sunk down in the water so that only the top of my head protruded from the lake. Maybe he didn’t know I was here. Maybe he hadn’t heard me. Maybe if I just stayed very quiet… The Minotaur’s nose lifted to scent the air, his huge nostrils flaring. My heart sank. He may not have seen me, but he had my scent. His huge black eyes scanned the beach, then the water—I tried to sink down further, but I didn’t dare lose sight of him—and then his eyes caught on me. This 5000 word short story is intended for mature audiences only.

1 WTF did I just read

 photo 755151_zps7fnsxnce.gif

Now you know it's bad when you go into a read with low expectations because hello? monster erotica and still you come out on the other end going "What the fuck did I just read?"! This book just has to go and get rapey on me. This 19 page train wreck had me questioning how some things ever get published. Okay so let me break this hot mess down. In this book we have Diana college student who swims naked in ice cold water to calm stress. She knows Minotaurs are real and when they catch human women they rape them. While swimming one day she hears a noise and two guesses as to what is on shore watching her swim nude. Yup rapey Minotaur. She tries to get away but he just grabs her and

Not only do I have to read about the creepy raping Minotaur but then I have to read how even though he is hurting her and she is crying and fighting her traitorous body starts to enjoy it. Really? You're going there writer? For real? Not only does he rape her, he then carries her off to the woods. She of course takes a nap curled into rapey Minotaur while he carries her away. Cuzz shame from enjoying rape makes her sleepy! When she wakes up she decides she liked her rape, even though painful and she kinda hopes he does it again. After some forced licking from the musky Minotaur she tries to ride him but right before she puts him into her she remembers the pain and thinks twice. Of course he just slams her down on him, Hello rapey Minotaur! After he falls asleep and she runs. The next day she misses rapey Minotaur and goes back to him. The end. Once I started this book I knew I had made a mistake. I picked it cause of the funny cover but that was so not a good choice. I wanted funny Halloween monster kink, but got musky, rapey Minotaur and stupid traitorous bodies. No just no! Thanks God it was free but still NO!

But that cover!

Another find from the always curious MacHalo ladies .

The best part of this story is the minotaur on the cover wearing tightie-whities.

This didn't make sense. I know, I ask a lot of monster porn. But I would like a semblance of a storyline and enough humor to balance out the trauma. Let me save you some trauma. Here is the condensed version.

I'm so stressed from school. I think I will relax by swimming naked in the river.

Shucks, another naked hot chick is swimming in my spot. We can't swim naked together. That would be weird. I will just go into this magical forest and swim there.

Oh no, a minotaur is on the shore! Rumor has it they like to rape women. I'm just going to stand here and hope he can't see me.

Drat, he caught me. MMMMMM, just smell that bovine musk. It makes me want to touch his naughty places.

I just got raped by cow. But don't worry, I think I liked it because he had this magical musky smell.

I'm still stressed at school. I think I will go swim deep in the magical forest, so the whole thing can happen again.


Basically, the moral of this story is..............Don't smell the musk!

*Book source ~ Free on Amazon

Diana (is this random or a reference to the Huntress?) likes to get up early and go swim in the icy cold water before her classes start. Why?! *shudders* Anyway, Ivy has taken to getting up earlier than Diana and swimming in *her* spot, so she moves to another. It’s not as nice as her other spot, but it’ll do. However, one morning, she hears rustling in the woods. Ducking down in the water to avoid any fellow classmates what she spots strolling out of the undergrowth is far, far worse than some pimply students. A Minotaur! And everyone knows how much a Minotaur loves to rut in tender juicy lady parts. If she’s quiet, maybe he’ll wander away. But it’s too late. He smells her and there’s no escaping a Minotaur loving.

I actually quite enjoyed this bit of naughty monster porn when I blocked out in my mind the bull head. I mentioned in another Minotaur book that I grew up on a farm. Cows/bulls are not attractive. Ever. Evereverever never! No! Except after they’ve been butchered and grilled to perfection. But I don’t wanna hump my steak. *curls lip* So, I just pictured Miny as having only *slightly* bullish features, not anything like the cover. Ewwww! Otherwise, a few minor grammar/editing errors, not bad for MP and the sex scenes are decently written. I’d definitely read more by this author.

Ok, this- this was an error. I sort of knew that with the cover. My project this year is to read a lot of Monster Romance, and with a Stuff your E-reader day on 12/27, I went on a hunt for as many Monsters as I could find. Minotaur stood out and so I happily stuffed my kindle.
Really this short short little story is straight up corn.
Nothing particularly bad about it, but also honestly, there was nothing to really salvage it either. I am now moving on from the Minotaur.

A Very Quick Read

Well written, and a little bit out there, but, that was what this book was about. Would have enjoyed a bit more added to the ending, but, otherwise, a job well done.

a ‘horny’ Minotaur gets the girl

Very short, but very spicy monster romance. I liked how the MFC struggled with her rapidly growing feelings in this novella. The ending felt rushed and a little confusing.

Yeah I was looking around and thinking "what the fuck did I just read?"
I know I can read some freaky arse shit but my god this has to be up there in some new level, this has changed my opinion on some new reading material LMAO!!!
Because of this read I have actually looked up some different sorts of books...and yes they have some sort of half human or merman beast thingy in LOL
When reading this and come across the Minotaur I thought of this straight away... description description

But this is a short tale about Diana who always knew that Minotaurs were real, but she never wanted to meet one. Their lust for human women is legendary. And the aftermath tends to be…messy. Lake Eerie campus is supposed to be safe, but now there’s nowhere for Diana to run. Lucky for her, while the Minotaur may have the head of a bull, he also has the heart of a man… that's from amazon but what it should of said is.....

Diana knew that Minotaurs were real but she was always scared of the talk that surrounds them, their lust for a human woman, one scent from a female sends their drive and need into overdrive that they have and need to take whatever they can with or without consent, she always thought her spot by the lake was safe until one fateful day her world changed forever... they have no hearts or feelings, they will bring pain and noting more but if your a silly female that thinks they have a heart by forcing their beast selves on you and into you then you are made for this short tale of beast like rape!!!!

BOOOOM hit that shit like a nail in the head bwahahaha....
It only got 3 stars because I kinda like it so if that makes me freaky or whatever than so be it....love me some half beast half human sex!!!

Very short read but I did enjoy it. It was just enough to get you in the story and then it was all over.

Diana goes to the Lake Eerie campus and it is a school for magic. You would think that would be easier than boring studies. You wouldn't want to see a spell go wrong. Who knows what it would do to you and everyone around you.

Diana goes out swimming every morning when everyone is still asleep to relive some of the stress that she's under. Just her luck the girl she doesn't like in school has taken over her swimming hole. She is swimming when she hears something and when she turns around she can't believe it. She see's a Minotaur.

You have to read the book to see what happens next. I can't give everything away.

Horn is for people who...

...enjoy it when the minotaur gets some lovin'!
...think that minotaurs are simply misunderstood.
...like those happy for now endings.
...get a kick out of a rousing game of Chase the Human.

Yeah, I have a soft spot for minotaurs. They're only looking for love! Just give it to them and everybody will be happy!

This will leave you speech less, Diana went swimming everyday and had a personal close encounter with the local Minotaur, she was afraid of him but soon something over came her and she cant get enough of the bull-man.
