About this listen

Lonely and reeling after a medical diagnosis, Lexi Macomber agrees to a weekend retreat at her ex-fiancée's secluded cabin. No drama. No expectations. Just a fun chance to reconnect.

A promising start quickly unravels as old grudges and buried arguments resurface. After a shower mishap ruins their final attempt at repairing the relationship, Lexi demands to leave.

Unfortunately, leaving the cabin is not going to be easy.

One obstacle leads to another, and Lexi is faced with a dire decision: either she’s hallucinating or her ex is plotting to kill her.

Breeding Ground is a psychological horror novelette; a fever-dream of 12K-words, perfect to listen to in a single sitting.

Not every pregnancy is a blessing...

Story: Lexi thought a weekend at the cabin with her ex-fiancé, Brandon, might bring closure—or at least some answers. Their relationship had crumbled after her diagnosis shattered their plans for a family. Now, she’s unsure if they’re rekindling what they had or just making peace with what’s lost. But something is wrong. Strange plants, parasitic wasps, and Brandon’s unsettling behavior put her on edge. Then, after a horrifying encounter, Lexi’s body begins to betray her—bloating, nausea, crippling pain. Brandon insists she’s imagining things. As Lexi fights to escape, she uncovers the gruesome truth about what's really going on with her body. She's carrying something's young. And they’re ready to tear their way out

Audio: Narrator Terra Hicks does a good job with the story. The audio quality is good and there were no issues.

Another genre checked off the list—body horror!

This one definitely gave me all the creepy icks, which, to be fair, is exactly what it was supposed to do. I just wish there had been a bit more backstory and world-building; I didn’t fully grasp the context until well into the story, and then suddenly—it got weird, and then it was over.

The narrator did a great job conveying emotion in the audiobook, which definitely added to the eerie atmosphere!.
