It’s more than minotaur sex however. There is worldbuilding and consent and relationship building. There’s not-shaming other female characters!! There’s no evil ex! Rourke is divorced and when Violet cyberstalks her to get the down-low she doesn’t judge her. Honestly, this is delightful. If I don’t find something soon I’m not going to have much of a choice,” she’d agreed bitterly, pressing her tongue into the roof of her mouth as her mother cooed sympathetically. Don’t cry. If you start crying, she’ll drive here tonight. Rourke is significantly better off financially than Violet. There’s open discussion about their economic disparity and Rourke does not use it as a way to control her.

Cambric Creek Series by C.M. Nascosta - Goodreads

Sure enough, it was. It REALLY was. The protagonist is a human female who has just finished grad school with a mountain of student loan debt. Unable to find work in her field, she decides to accept a position as “milker” of minotaurs. Their semen is the magic ingredient in those little blue pills all the middle-aged gentlemen need, you see. And the best, most effective method of extracting this is by female technician first using her hands, and then a silicone lined collection tube that feeds into a glass bottle. Of course she falls in love with one of her weekly clients. The family upstairs had chosen that moment to begin what sounded like a good old-fashioned, barn-stomping square dance, reminding her that the roof over her head wasn’t exactly anything to brag about, which made the fact that she struggled to pay her rent even more galling. The goal for every client is a plentiful, speedy collection. That is the expectation with which you will approach every shift—getting our clients in and out and on with their day, all while maintaining our quality protocols. A plentiful, speedy collection makes for happy clients and a productive farm!” Set to be the first in a series, Morning Glory Milking Farm follows Violet, a perennially broke millennial in dire need of a new job. She’s drowning in grad school debt but there are no available positions suited to her skills, and gigs in coffee shops just aren’t paying the bills. So, she does what all humans living in a world where magical creatures are the norm would do: she becomes a milking technician at Morning Glory, a pharmaceutical base dedicated to, ahem, gathering important biological samples. It turns out that minotaur semen is a key ingredient in Viagra, so willing males can donate their ‘material’ for the good of erections everywhere. Violet’s job is to get it into the jars in an efficiently hands-on manner. During her regular sessions, she encounters a regular client who asks for her services specifically: he’s deep-voiced, tips well, and, even by minotaur standards, is f**king huge. Sparks, of course, fly. And other things. Mind out of the gutter, you weirdos. Morning Glory Farm offers full-time hours, full benefits, and generous pay with no experience needed . . . there's only one catch. The clientele is Grade A certified prime beef, with the manly, meaty endowments to match. Hands-on work with minotaurs isn't something Violet ever considered as a career option, but she's determined to turn the opportunity into a reversal of fortune.When a stern, deep-voiced client begins to specially request her for his sessions at the farm, maintaining her professionalism and keeping him out of her dreams is easier said than done. Violet is resolved to make a dent in her student loans and afford name-brand orange juice, and a one-sided crush on an out-of-her-league minotaur is not a part of her plan-unless her feelings aren't so one-sided after all. Of course, he needs to be a bit bossy about it but the underlying respect is what’s important. As wild as the premise is, there’s a hook that isn’t just the sex.

Welcome to Morning Glory! We appreciate you all taking time out of your days to visit the farm!” The tiefling standing before them had cool blue skin and the curling horns of a ram, and her smile was overly wide. “Today we’ll be giving you a tour of the facility, as well as the opportunity to register on our online portal and watch some process videos. Your portal access is good for twenty-four hours, in which time you’ll need to decide whether you’ll be a good fit for our team. If the answer is yes, you can input your schedule availability, and you’ll be put into the rotation for the following week.” The girl had paused to smile brightly once more, a spade-tipped tail swishing behind her. “Your first two weeks on the job will be shadowing technicians who have been with us from the beginning, so rest assured—you’ll be shown everything you need to learn before you’ll be on your own!” What is the world even coming to when I'm sitting here thinking to myself, "I wish this had been lactation erotica." There’s also some commentary about people (well, in this case, minotaurs) being commodified which added to the mix. There really is a lot more to the book than minotaur sex. There is a mutual connection between Violet’s favourite minotaur (whose name turns out to be Rourke) and herself and he makes a special request for her to be the technician he sees for his appointments.It’s going to be fine. You can do this, who cares if you’re the only human. You really need this job. Welcome to Morning Glory Farm! Incorporated nearly a decade ago, our mission has remained the same since the day our lab processed its first specimen—to uphold the integrity of the genetic material in our care, to set a new standard in pharmaceutical processing that the entire industry would model, and to provide a client-first attitude in all we do. Our brand new, state-of-the-art facility in Cambric Creek marries all three tenets, putting the client experience at the center of our collection process. As a milking technician on our collection floor, you will be tasked with ensuring a plentiful, speedy collection, processed in accordance with our standards in safety and sterility. You’ve already taken a tour of the facility, now you’ll get to see our process in action . . . follow me!” Rourke is aware of boundaries and potential conflicts for Violet within her job and he seeks to build a relationship with her outside of sex before things become physical between them – this includes pausing his visits to the farm for a while so as not to confuse things. The way the story treated these kinds of issues made it much more than an erotic romance. I liked the inclusivity of Cambric Creek and the way Violet examines her previously held prejudices and privilege as she learns about the community. I liked the friendships she built outside of her romance with Rourke and a I liked the way that Rourke never sought to control Violet or make any demands about her ceasing work at the farm if she didn’t want to. Bull semen, specifically Minotaur semen, was a major component in giving the pills the oomph their devotees needed . . . and she, in her new role, if she decided to take the job, would be responsible for collecting it.

Milking minotaurs isn’t something Violet ever considered as a career option, but she’s determined to turn the opportunity into a reversal of fortune. A note to DA Readers: there’s more to this book than weird minotaur sex. I promise. Although, to be fair, there is a fair bit of weird minotaur sex as well.) The fox-like woman’s beaming, sharp-edged smile froze, her glinting canines transformed into something sinister and vaguely threatening as Violet tapped the laptop, pausing the video for the third time that morning.She’d not yet made it past the introduction today, needing to repeatedly remind herself to breathe and stay upright and that she was home, so bolting out into the hallway and making a break for the elevator would make little sense, particularly if she wanted to avoid the uncomfortable scenario of her elderly neighbors hearing the sound of the video coming from her apartment and discovering what she was watching.
