Interesting Siri romance
I found the world of this book to be fairly disturbing and just not romantic.
Loved it! Became an instant fan of Cara Bristol. Breeder will make your eyebrows raise, your jaw drop, and your heart cringe. Its hot and steamy and takes no prisoner. I hi
ghly recommend it.
It’s an okay read, not one I would read again which makes me glad it was a free read. Probably for me it was the storyline and the treatment of women. Which I have to say Dak’s treatment of Orma is a lot better than most. He treated her more like a submissive wife than a second class citizen. The storyline flowed pretty well but I did feel like the ending was kinda rushed.
Omra is in a facility for breeders. She has been there for over a year because the director of it wants her for himself. She is a virgin and can only have sex with the one who purchases her. Dak is an Alpha commander of his providence. They believe women are nothing but to breed children. They aren’t supposed to enjoy sex but something about Omra has Dak losing all of his hard earned control. But others don’t think he should be Alpha anymore and go about bringing him down. When Omra is kidnapped to be resold to aliens, Dak will do anything to get her back.
Fair story with sex and spankings. Some M/M scenes. I didn’t know what half the words meant or how to pronounce them.
* Voluntarily read and reviewed this book *
Well, Well, Well.
Every so often a little gem you were so not expecting to rate much surprises you with its unique perspective and vivid world building.
Breeder by Cara Bristol is one such little nugget, a story that once started is so strangely addictive that even with its surreal surroundings it just has to be finished.
So a bit of background Breeder is set in a male dominated world.
The males are split down the middle into two camps Alphas & Betas.
Alphas are top of the food chain, with all the advantages this title holds, they get all the best jobs and basically are top dog in all things.
So Alphas marry betas who in a way are like the wife and are subservient to their alpha husbands.
Alphas can beat, punish and well basically totally dominate their betas.
In my opinion being a beta is a pretty shit deal only a few steps up from a female breeder.
Now the lowly female of this delightful planet are kept in containment facilities waiting for when the alphas on the planet Parseon are ready to produce the next generation of Alphas, Betas & Breeders.
So are you following along so far?
ALPHAS / TOP DOG
MARRY BETAS / DOMINATED PARTNER
WOMAN / FOR BREEDING
The woman on this planet are so low in importance that the livestock has more value than these poor females.
So the story goes that Commander Dak, one of the main ruling alphas on the planet is ready to procreate so he purchases Omra a breeder slave to impregnate and then hand over to his beta husband.
Only Alphas are allowed to breed and the breeder can still be used at alphas discretion by other alphas and their beta partners, but traditional breeding is only an alphas right.
So some observations about our commander & Omra.
Dak was so blatantly hetro, his suspected struggle with his low sex drive was just an attraction to the wrong gender, basically, he just liked girls not guys
DUH!!! ROLLS EYES.
From the moment Dak encounters Omra, even in her dirty bedraggled state he feels an intense connection and protective instinct towards her.
I felt he was actually being very sweet and caring while still trying to follow protocol.
His struggle to balance his feelings with his ability to lead was fascinating to watch.
and When Dak, loses it with his beta for his appalling treatment of his omra, I was so applauding from the sidelines.
I really Don’t think Dak or Omra were expecting to feel so emotionally attached to each other
“He grabbed her head in his hands and crushed her lips under his mouth, plundered with his tongue, wetness dampened her face and she realised with a shock the tears didn’t only originate from her, Alpha was crying”
I loved also the fact that omra though very submissive in her nature also portrayed a quiet strength and dignity that shone like a beacon from her, She is easily pleased and it takes very little to satisfy and keep her content and happy.
And now just when your grounded let’s add to the mix a little bit of corporal punishment.
YAY!!!
Oh, I do love a spot of spanking.
So Dak had an implement of some sort, can’t remember its name, but it sounded bloody unpleasant and painful in nature.
really Not a titillating escapade here, but a real chastisement Ouch!!!!!
hroughout this storyI found there was an underlying vein of humour that made me quietly smile.
” I can walk, she protested, wiggling her feet “not tonight he said. she felt light and fragile in his arms, a delicate injured bird, “Although if you would like, I could sling you over my shoulder like a sack of tubers”
Another little gem that had me chuckling to myself was
“Monto” he said ” The pleasure was so intense, I feared it might kill me” she sprang up with alarm, ” coupling can cause death?”
Now that one made me spit out my coffee.
So There we have it a breakdown of all that is Breeder.
In conclusion, this was an amazingly imaginative piece of writing, a very enjoyable read that was a lot more than the bit of slap and tickle that I was kind of initially expecting, a very
thought-provoking piece of fiction.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing me with free readers copy of Breeder By Cara Bristol, this is my own personal opinion.

Great book but not for the homophobic.
a very good read.
Good read
Throughly enjoying it.
Heroine is irritating and stupid
A reader of this book would do well to heed the author’s caveat which appears in a preface, warning of “spanking” occurring in the story. The writer is a good wordsmith, and the story is entertaining, with exhilarating and fearless erotic sequences, but the frequent interludes of the primary male character physically “chastising” the female lead with both his hand and with a barbed, stinging instrument, and her acceptance that it is both his perfect right to do so and her own fault for disobeying him disturbed me. Given that the action takes place in a universe where females are regarded as less than nothing and contemptuously referred to as “breeders,” it’s nice that the main male comes to love and cherish his mate, although it’s made clear that he will “discipline” her whenever he feels it is necessary (solely to ensure her obedience to his rules, which keep her safe, of course), and she enjoys wearing a heavy locking device on her genitalia because it reminds her that she is his possession. This story of “romance” left me disturbed.
Would recommend this book!!!!
I couldn’t put it down, hated to see it end.
Be aware that it is a sexual explicit book that features homosexuality.
lackluster
Didn’t like this book at all
The world the author created was beyond my imagination, but we still got an HEA!
Twisted but it was entertaining.
A very hot read!!!
