Looking for Don Silver thread Toxic Attraction chapters

I wish people would stop using the pdf file format for stories. My eReader hates them, and getting good results when converting them is hell. One could argue that pdf files should only be used for print, not screen. If anyone has a good way of converting pdf to epub, please send me a pm. I realize this thread isn't the right place to discuss technical stuff.
 
How Far Is Too Far? is honestly the worst story of them all. The characters are all unlikeable. There was a small glimmer of hope during the trip when David slept with his secretary and then discovered the deception. But what follows is some of the worst writing I've ever seen, with Jia somehow managing to convince David to accept both her cheating and the tattoo—two things that are completely unbelievable.


The author is clearly determined to keep pushing things further and further (and openly admits it), while making David as weak and spineless as possible. Every clichĂŠ of the genre is present, but Jia is probably one of the cruelest wives and one of those who seems to love her husband the least.


We already know how this is going to end: with David turned into a complete dumb cuckold and total wimp, raising his wife's child with her lover. The sex scenes are mediocre at best and eventually become repetitive.


I'm hoping for a cliffhanger that finally works in David's favor, but that seems very unlikely.

I use calibre and have it configured to automatically convert any file I import into epub format.

Calibre settings:
  • Turn on auto-convert - Preferences - Adding Books - "Automatically convert added books to the preferred output format".
  • Set the preferred output format in Preferences - Behavior - "Preferred output format" and select epub from the drop-down list

I'm using Calibre, but didn't know there was an auto-convert feature. I'll check it out. I do find the resulting epub files lacking in quality though. Paragraphs are split, usually the last line, and words are occasionally concatenated. You also get vertical text sometimes. The file is still readable, but my perfectionist mind finds it annoying.

epub creation is messy because no one adheres the the standards. Add in the variations of different PDF creation software and the PDF standard that doesn't contain text (but vector art instructions that draws the letters) and you have a nightmare.

I scrape some stories into a database and find converting pdf to epub in calibre cleans up the underlying text. I then use the html files within the epub , scrape away the html tags and am usually left with decently clean formatted text. I find copying and pasting text straight from pdfs messes up line breaks and characters thanks to unicode ligatures. TLDR: calibre may not be good at making clean and easy to navigate and read epub files, but they do a good job of converting the text.
 
Read WifeyFetish's Getting the Grade. Starts off ok but is a bit rushed and there's too much sex, making the sex boring. Disappointing compared to Unsatisfied and Unforgettable Birthday. But Why Him was very good but I'm apprehensive about reaching the final chapter. The hinted ending would ruin the series for me.
 
Say no more
I don't understand why the authors make the husband so weak. In 5 chapters, the husband will turn gay. David will look at Tom's penis, say how big it is, and transfer the company to Tom's name, dress as a woman, and give Tom his ass. The authors are losing their way; the husband is also increasingly ridiculed in every way and environment. David is humiliated at home and at work. And the wife takes her husband for granted!!!! All that's missing is Alice not achieving the same; the husband has another woman but only gets off watching his wife having sex with another man and doesn't even realize it. The stories are repetitive, all the same clichĂŠs; all that's missing is for the husbands to become gay and change sex. In David's case, he'll give the company to his wife all because the man has a big penis. The story is ridiculous; the husband didn't even complain about being abandoned. And he barely thought about the secretary.

I know it's like what woman would want one of these guys as a husband. Other than a pay check and the ability to do what ever they want.
I just don't see the husbands giving up everything for this kink or fetish. It's not like the ending sneaks up on them either,they see it coming but they just can't stop. It's stupid, why would they keep going if they can't see that their wives are fixing to leave them. Then they want be able to get that fix, I would be smarter to slow shit down for a while then start it back up down the road. But in because these fuckers just drive it till the wheels fall off.
In every one of these super cuck stories that has an actual ending,and not just sum lam ass story stop, but an actual ending the marriage is over.

The logical conclusion that can be drawn from the sheer number of these stories currently being published is the audience.
As is well known, the market is driven by supply and demand.
The demand for this specific theme appears to be significant, leading eight out of ten authors to place this theme at the centre of their stories in order to cater to an audience (readers) who do not value ‘good erotica and realistic’ stories.

The number of those characterised by high eroticism, exciting plots and passionate, highly sensitive stories seems, in the meantime, to have dwindled to a very small number.
This is increasingly prompting authors to tailor their stories to the wishes of the masses and develop them according to their expectations.
The result is a multitude of shallow stories characterised by substandard and nonsensical content.

See also TA, BTND, NC, CC ect. ... which started off very well but have increasingly taken a ‘nonsensical to miserable’ turn as they progressed.

what's this story about?

My guess is "sluts being slutty" but the authors also posted this to help

Copilot AI says:

Ascending Lauren appears to follow a character‑driven arc centered on a woman named Lauren, whose life is undergoing a major shift — emotional, personal, or situational. The story likely explores how she navigates a complicated relationship dynamic, a new environment, or a transformative experience that forces her to confront parts of herself she hasn’t fully acknowledged.

Lauren’s journey seems to involve power imbalances, temptation, and self‑discovery, but framed in a way that emphasizes her internal conflict rather than explicit detail. She may be drawn toward someone or something that challenges her sense of stability, pushing her to question what she wants versus what she believes she should want.

As the story progresses, Lauren likely becomes more aware of her own agency. The “ascending” in the title suggests a rise — not necessarily in status, but in self‑confidence, clarity, or emotional independence. Her arc probably shifts from uncertainty to a more grounded understanding of her desires, boundaries, and identity.

The tone of the story is probably intense and emotionally charged, but at its core it’s about growth, vulnerability, and transformation, with Lauren emerging stronger or more self‑aware by the end.


Gemini says:

The provided text is an introductory chapter and foreword to an adult-focused fiction series titled Ascending Lauren by the author SimpleEnigma. According to the author’s foreword, the series is loosely inspired by real-life stories and experiences shared among a group of hypersexual friends, though the timeline is heavily compressed and mapped onto fictional protagonists named Lauren and Corey Miller.

The plot of the first chapter focuses on a major transitional period for the central couple, who have been married for 28 years. They are preparing to relocate from Des Moines, Iowa, to Miami, Florida, to seek a warmer climate and a livelier lifestyle now that their children are grown. Lauren has accepted a substantial corporate promotion as an executive office manager for a fiberglass distribution company called Rekrap Industries. Because Corey is a dedicated construction project manager who needs to finish building a medical center in Iowa before leaving his job, the couple faces a temporary five-to-six-month separation while Lauren establishes their new home in Florida.

The narrative spends his final weekend in Miami exploring the changing physical and intimate dynamics of their long-term marriage. Both characters reflect on how aging has altered their intimacy, noting changes in physical stamina and libido over the decades. Despite these evolving dynamics, they share a deep emotional bond, and Corey harbors a strong sense of pride in his wife's ongoing attractiveness and confidence.

To celebrate their impending new life and make the most of Corey's last night in town, they go on a major shopping trip for Lauren’s new executive wardrobe and later head out to dinner and a high-energy nightclub in Miami's arts district. At the club, they unexpectedly cross paths with one of Lauren's new colleagues, bypass a long line, and spend the night drinking and dancing. The chapter concludes back at Lauren's high-rise apartment, where the couple shares an intimate, affectionate evening together before Corey's flight back to Iowa.
