Best erotic historical books according to redditors

Reciever of Many by Rachel Alexander is a lovely telling of these myths. Covers a lot of backstory. The sequel, Destroyer of Light is complete and published.

These books are pretty thick (so to speak, since the default version is the ebook) and I'm not super pleased with how Thanatos is in them, but otherwise they're great. (They are very NSFW in...lots of places).

we have such sights to show you

There's an old book by Georgette Heyer called The Corinthian which was the first romance book I ever read, borrowed off the shelf of our apartment's clubhouse lending library. I was completely blown away and spent ages reading romances looking for anything like that. Sadly, most of what I found was nowhere near as good.

I later read all her works and found that the one that was most transgressive, most interesting, and in some ways most romantic was Powder and Patch. It's nothing like what you're expecting from a romance book, but still manages to be unbearably sweet.

I truly loved The Time Traveler's Wife, as someone below mentioned; it's an uneasy book to read in places, which makes it even better.

Lois Bujold's book A Civil Campaign is book 10 or so in her Vorkosigan series, one of the funniest books I've ever read (I fell off the sofa laughing), and an utterly wonderful romance. You do need some context from the earlier series to thoroughly enjoy it though.





You've eliminated classics so all of Austen's works are out - she's brilliant, by the way, very delicate touch and very illuminating as to how people spent so much time observing other people in society at that timeframe, the smallest gesture and look were fraught with meaning. Wuthering Heights was good for a different reason; it's a book filled with monsters. The monsters are purely awful, and they fall in love, and it destroys them. It's a ruin of a book.

This is what reddit is for: This an erotic novel set in Norman times I know it's earlier than what your looking for, but the author, Julia Templeton, seems to have cornered the historical smut novel niche. She wrote a smut novel taking place in the 1600s in the Highlands. And Here is a piece written in the 1500s. And a handbook from the 1600s

Just gonna leave this here.

Yes, nerds have skimpy fanservice women.

And women have books like this

Also, as a fair point, how often does Wolverine get all his clothing blown off by a Sentinel? Or the near constant bare-male-torso in shows like Lost, Buffy, Angel, BSG, etc? And how much of the back-and-forth between the sassy Female Companion and the current Doctor is really evident of true gender roles, and how much is female fan-service?

That's not say any of these examples makes things "better" or "even"... nor is it to say that it's never a problem (sometimes it is.)

But it is to say that people -- not just men, and not just nerd men -- occasionally like some objectification and over-sexualization (if I may coin a word) of the genders. And in fact have for all of recorded history (go back and read the Greek myths and find me one that it's absurdly over-sexualized). So let's stop pretending like it's a problem just for existing, and instead address that in some particular cases it goes too far but other times it's fun and perfectly fine.

They've updated the cover.

Description:

College roommates, Chuck and Sam are best friends and kind of an odd couple. Chuck is a physics major and a big nerd. Sam is the opposite, a lacrosse-playing ladies' man with sexy muscles.

After drinking magic mushroom tea at a hippie sex party, Chuck has a dream that he is fucking a beautiful blue skinned alien with hypnotic eyes and tits to die for. When he wakes up he has new insight into the physics behind quantum mechanics and time travel.

Chuck researches the equations from his dream at the library and tracks down a mysterious ancient scepter which allows them to time travel.

In a stroke of genius, they decide to travel through time to the night the Titanic sank, so they can be on a sweet boat and bang women who were going to die anyway.

When they loose the magic scepter, they may be going down with the ship. Their dicks may have got the best of them in this sexy adventure.

I got great advice last time I published here, and I made the changes that were suggested. Sales definitely went up. I then tried my hand at a short, and it has not had as much success as my series. I am wondering if this has to do with the cover at all. Thanks for taking a look!

I'll bite, since it's my first short.

I wanted to see what a Fiverr designer would put together, so the cover isn't mine. I dig the gold title.

I went with this subcategory because it doesn't seem to have much in it, and I'm still very new to how niche research actually works. I've been toying with the idea of getting KindleSpy, because there doesn't seem to be an easy way to collate top search results and filter through their stats, but it's so expensive, and I'm still not totally convinced.
