#1 Anything For You: Erotica for Kinky Couples
By: Rachel Kramer Bussel
Rachel Kramer Bussel is at the top of her game in BDSM erotica and now shares the pleasure in a one-of-a-kind book, custom-made for couples. Anything For You is stimulating reading, both for experienced players and those just discovering the joy of tying up your lover, or bending over for the one you love. These explicit stories unlock the door to a world of obsessive desires and a passion that lies just beneath the skin.
Bondage is the stuff of fantasy for a shockingly large portion of the population, and true happiness is discovering what makes your partner really tick. In this case, it might well be the tickle of rope on naked skin, or a firm paddling. Anything For You is a guidebook to kink, told story by delicious story of uninhibited, adventurous sex. Each boldly wrought tale shared with your lover is another door opened into the erotic mindscape.
“Anything For You is a sensually thrilling, deliciously explicit, and diverse collection of erotica geared towards sexually adventurous couples looking for new inspiration. … I was very happy to find that this book easily balances a wide range of sexual fantasies and a healthy mix of sexual orientations all geared towards those couples who like bondage and sex toys in their relationships. This is yet another exciting collection of tales that will keep you up into the wee hours of the morning.” – Night Owl Reviews
#2 Sweet Confessions: Erotic Fantasies for Couples
By: Violet Blue
Violet Blue is simply the best in the business when it comes to erotica for couples. She edits with both a sharp eye and a knack for what lovers are looking for - sweet and surprising scenarios. In Sweet Confessions, the lust-inciting fantasies include spanking, exhibitionism, role-playing, three-ways, and sexy adventures that will inspire real couples to reach new heights of passion. In Violet Blue's own words, "The stories I've chosen are explicit, well thought-out, cleverly crafted, and arousing as hell. Trust me. I tried it at home."
One satisfied Amazon customer raves: “While you'll certainly find your "normal" fantasy stories such as kink, threesomes, or role-playing, the book also provides more unique situations such as Internet flirting, Little Red Riding Hood role-play, a woman wanting to watch her partner flirt and be with another man, and tons of other stuff. Violet Blue did a great job of selecting stories that really play off one another while still keeping each story original and unique. I've read a ton of erotic anthology books, and I haven't read a single one of these stories before which is always good.”
#3 Take Me There: Trans and Genderqueer Erotica
By: Tristan Taormino
In mainstream media, the erotic identities, sex lives, and fantasies of transgender and genderqueer people are often oversimplified, sensationalized, or invisible. Take Me There is an erotica collection unlike any other that celebrates the pleasure, heat, and diversity of transgender and genderqueer sexualities. The power of seeing and being seen is a central theme in the anthology; it’s not simply about passing or not passing (an idea often explored with transgender characters), but about being acknowledged and desired in a sexual context.
Take Me There features such renowned authors as Kate Bornstein (Gender Outlaws: The Next Generation), Patrick Califia (Speaking Sex to Power), S. Bear Bergman (Butch is a Noun), Ivan Coyote (Missed Her), Julia Serrano (Whipping Girl), Laura Antoniou (The Marketplace), Helen Boyd (My Husband Betty), Rachel Kramer Bussel (Gotta Have It), Toni Amato (Pinned Down by Pronouns), Alicia E. Goranson (Supervillainz), filmmaker Tobi Hill-Meyer, musician Rahne Alexander, songwriter Shawna Virago, bloggers Andrea Zanin and Sinclair Sexsmith, and more.
Genderqueer porn star, Jiz Lee, says: "As someone who is androgynous-identified, it feels positively monumental to hold in my hands an erotica anthology where trans* desire is not the token, but the topic! In making our desires visible -- within our own communities and beyond -- our gender expressions, our fantasies, our very lives are made real. Take Me There brings us HERE."
“Yes, yes—oh god YES! Take Me There: Trans and Genderqueer Erotica finally satisfies a longtime craving of the genderfucked and genderfucking to accurately articulate the complexities of queer desire into raunchy written words. Edited by Tristan Taormino and flaunting big bylines like Kate Bornstein, Patrick Califia, and S. Bear Bergman, this queerotic collection refreshingly reflects that queer sex isn't just about gender-variant pronouns or redefined dirty bits, but about what you do with them. Having read the many diversely deviant entries in Take Me There, we'd advise reading this one with one hand." – BITCH Magazine
