Erotica Requests & Recs: Post your erotica & specific sex act requests & recs here

The Place for Erotica and Sex Act Specifics

Want some short and sweet erotica? Just need to read a book with sounding, no matter what else is in it? Just read something with this kind of content and want to share a recommendation?

Post it here in the Erotica Requests thread!

Requests that are seeking erotica recommendations and/or specific sex acts must be made here. You don't have to come up with extra specifics for your requests, similar to The Less Scary Request Place on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Please make sure your request follows our other rules (for example, rule 6, our privacy rule).

Anyone can answer requests made in this post. Not all recommendations have to be specifically erotica, but that is the main goal of this request thread.

Important Note: This post goes up on Thursday mornings (US time). Requests made after Thursday ends are less likely to get replies. You are welcome to comment here on any day of the week, but you may want to save your requests for an upcoming Thursday.

Definitions

Erotica: A piece of fiction that focuses primarily on sex, where the plot is secondary and serves the sexual content within. Unlike in genre romances, in erotica a HEA/HFN is not required.

A book having a lot of sex or having kink content does not make it inherently erotica -- what matters is whether the focus of the book is on the romantic relationship and getting to a HEA/HFN, or not.

Erotic Romance: A genre romance that has high sexual content. Erotic romances can be recommended here, but are not required to be requested here.

Request for specific sex act: A request that can be read as "when the characters have sex, I want them to do X" and where that's the main thing the requester is asking for.

This would not include something like a general request that the book contain explicit sex, for example. It isn't meant to sweep in any request that mentions sex, just requests where the point is to find a specific type of sex scene.

This feature is posted every Thursday. You can find the complete schedule of all weekly and monthly features at this link.

Men Who Cry

Hello,

I feel like I don’t see men cry in many MM books I read. Something traumatic just happened to me and don’t feel I can recognize or feel all my emotions much just yet, but would like to live a bit through characters who also face difficult moments, but still get through it with love. So I’m not looking for a crying kink, but more so a scene where one MC cries and it’s directly addressed or engaged with, such as through in depth description of their feelings, the other MC consoling them, the MC/their friends/family encouraging the MC to express their feelings, etc.

An example is {Invitation to the Blues by Roan Parrish}

I think sometimes in books where there are displays of emotionality from an MC, the other MC is written to be a therapist, daddy, or hero, in a sense. They are always able to recognize and resolve the other MCs problems, not able to be vulnerable/confide in the other MC, or just written to be an overall “perfect” sunny guy. I’m not necessarily looking for that, though it’s not a hard no. I’m more just looking for imperfect humans to connect with other imperfect humans. :)

Preferences/Nice to Have: POC, neurodivergent characters, characters with mental or physical health conditions, adult MCs, explicit smut

Nos: Police/military, mafia/dark romance, ageplay, daddy kink, omegaverse, billionaires, sports

I’m safe and have a therapist. Just looking for some bibliotherapy..

Good boy turned bad

Hi, I’m looking for a book where the MC is or was a good boy from a good family and good grades etc. but then something happens and he turns bad (or he can progressively fall into gray territory). Some family drama would be fine (like his family noticing his change and confronting him). It can be him joining some gang, or just some trauma or getting into drugs or pretty much anything, those are just some ideas.

The book does not have to be only romantically driven.

Tropes: also anything (enemies to lovers, opposites attract, friends to strangers/enemies to lovers…)
It can be supernatural too (like MC being hunter and then turned into some supernatural being and changing)

Preferably high school or college age.

Some examples:
Mby {kiss the villain by Rina Kent} although Carson was never really good but the pretending was also good, but it’s not an exact fit.

Thanks anyone for any tips :)

Bully romance where the bullying is brought into intimate scenes

I’m thinking of finally getting into the ‘Bully x Bullied’ type of stories, but I’m curious about a specific dynamic I don’t see spoken about often. I’m wondering if there are any stories where after finding a comfortable and healthy dynamic, the couple brings bullying into the bedroom. Specifically, where the former bully dominates the bullied but in a consensual and arousing way.

The bullying could either be something done in the past when they were younger, or even more recent such as a job environment. Instead of seeing a role reversal, I want to see a transformation of previous dynamics into something that causes pleasure.

Hard passes: step brothers/any family relations or gore.

Looking for MC1 that has to be taught anything

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for books (if they exists) with MC1 who(because of trauma, abuse, everything is good) doesn't know how to do something/anything and MC2 has to teach them. Not only in sex, but also in life!
Even better if it has hurt/comfort.

I don't have any big "no", but I would prefer if there wasn't any alien, lol.

Thank you so much

WWTBC: Fireman and teacher, small town, single dad

I think they had gone to school together as kids. One moved back to their hometown where the other was already a teacher. I think the fireman had a child. I believe the MCs were both under 40. One might have been struggling with his sexuality (the fireman?). Possibly set in the American midwest (Kansas? Missouri?). TIA.

WWTBC big/buff omega

Hey I recall reading the blurb for this book awhile ago and I can’t find it. I know it was about a taller or perhaps buff omega. All I remember for sure is that he didn’t look like a typical omega, and that made him undesirable.

And I think he was a nanny? I’m not sure on that. And he also might be a fairy/fae.

Anyway if you could help me find this book I’d appreciate it!

Streamer x Streamer (non-nsfw streamers)

Hi! Just like the title says I’d love to read a book where both MCs are streamers that don’t do NSFW content! Most of the books that are streamer x streamer at least one of them is a porn star and i’m not really looking for that! I also don’t mind if the MCs are famous youtubers or tiktok/ig influencers!

Bonus points if it’s enemies to lovers
Hard No’s: No Omegaverse or supernatural MCs

An example of what i’m looking for is {Mature Content by Megan Erickson} I just recently finished reading that and I’m looking for similar stuff to it :)

New to the subreddit and feeling intimidated by the thought of posting a book request? Not sure if the request you have in mind will satisfy the subreddit rules?

Post it here in the Wednesday Request Place---the Wednesday version of our popular Saturday Less Scary Request Place.

Requests that aren't specific or detailed enough for a standalone request post can be made here, and it's also a great place to test the waters if you're not ready to make your own request post yet. We know it can sometimes be hard to come up with a request that meets the rules, and frustrating when your request is removed, so we've created this weekly post to help.

Anyone can answer requests made in this post. This post isn't hosted by someone who answers requests, so it's up to your fellow members to help you out. We can't guarantee you'll get an answer, but hopefully you will!

Looking for the most touch-starved MCs

I’m looking for recommendations where one (or both!) of the MCs is majorly starving for touch or affection.

To clarify- I’m not looking for characters who are touch-averse or touch-phobic, I’m more talking about the loneliest of the lonely who haven’t had access to gentleness, caring, or love in a long time.

Maybe this is because they are the town pariah, or the black sheep of their family. Maybe they are grieving, or processing trauma. They could have anxiety or neurodivergence. They could be disfigured, or have a high maintenance illness or disability. Maybe they are the isolated lighthouse keeper on a remote island, I don’t know. Whatever the backstory, it has resulted in desperate loneliness and touch starvation.

Hard nos are paranormal, fantasy, omegaverse and dark romance, but Im willing to go there if it’s exceptionally well-written.

WWTBC forced marriage

Trying to remember a book I read a while back that had a forced marriage. In the beginning MC2 was called to his father’s office and beaten up when he tried to refuse. He was on pain pills during the wedding because of it. MC1 was a huge asshole, especially in the beginning. MC1 figures out that MC2 is injured when he goes to MC2’s room after the wedding and sees the bruises.

Pretty sure MC2 was ADHD coded or something similar. He was messy and unorganized.

Smart, Sarcastic, Powerful MC (Urban Fantasy)?

Hi! I’ve read a lot (A LOT) of urban fantasy and I’m looking for something specific: smart main character that’s very powerful and kind of does his own thing.

Stuff to include: siblings bonds, plot heavy, found family, a series (if can!)

I really liked: The Tarrot Sequence by KD Edward’s, Liar City by Allie Therin, Three Meant to Be by MN Bennet, Soulbound by Hailey Turner, The Scars that Bind Us by Michel Notato, San Amaro Investigations by Kai Butler, Jon’s Downright ridiculous Shooting Case by AJ Sherwood, etc. (I’ll make another post with all my recs lol)

Please note I’ve read these authors other works as well

Liked but didn’t like the whole series:
The Necromancers Dance by SJ Himes

Stuff I read and liked but not the vibe I’m looking for right now:
Diviners Game by Jennifer Cody, Psynch by Zile Elliven, Within the Mind by Alice Winters

I didn’t like/ DNFed: Dark Rise, A bunch of things written by Alexandra Rowland, (there probably more In forgetting lol)

I am specifically looking for urban fantasy! Not historical or high fantasy right now.

Spreadsheet Recs as Promised

I made a spreadsheet with book recs spanning a bunch of different of genres and my OWN opinions. I included the series name and goodreads links, plus some notes. There's a filtering option and I might add a tags system if enough people ask bc rn im lazy. Let me know what people think!

Note: you can't download the list

Also not sure if this flair is correct since its a list not a specific rec.

Also, these are the books I read and LIKED enough to add and I try not to write more than one book per series. Ive read a whole bunch of other books that I didn't think were worth mentioning since they were boring or badly written etc

Books like Pieces of us Together by TJ Hamel /Taylor McNiff (These Monstruous Deeds series)

I spent the last few weeks reading these books and today I finished reading {Pieces of Us Together by TJ Hamel /Taylor McNiff} and I just need more of the dinamic that they have in this book. They are initially a couple, Maison and Nolan. Nolan needs to submit, he needs a Dom, he needs the lifestyle, but Maison can't be this for him. So Maison finds a Dom for Nolan, Hunter. But Hunter sees since the first time the Maison has the weight of the world on his shoulders, and then, he starts to try to help both of them. Maison is all Alpha male, don't need anyone to take care of me, don't even deserve this help. But the most beautiful part for me e Hunter winning him over and showing that's okay to submit, it's okay to give the control to someone else.

I absolutely loved all the books in these series, but I absolutely need more of this dinamic, big alpha male, that needs to submit, but don't know that yet. And good written stories too, with healthy bdsm representation if possible... I doesn't need to be poly, or exactly the same, I know that's almost impossible, but give me the best that you have. (I doesn't even need to have explicit bdsm).

Thanks so much in advance TT_TT

Books where MC1 casually takes care of MC2

I REALLY enjoyed {The brat & the beast series by Misha Horne} and looking for a similar dom/sub undertones care taking dynamic between the MCs.

What I loved was how, although Caleb couldn't have possibly known the specificities of Logan's struggles, he still gave Logan what Logan needed to finally relax and let go. So I'm really looking for a dynamic where MC2 can finally relax under MC1s keen attention, affection and soft domination.

Preferably, MCs each have their own issues and find solace with each other in their dom/sub dynamic.

Hard hard no's is extreme BDSM kink, cheating, and MCD!!

WWTBC firefighter and single dad

Small town firefighter and single dad

ChatGPT failed me and said this is probably an indie author (probably true) I remember odd specifics of this book

Single dad/guardian moves to small town from the city with young daughter or niece, moves into rundown house with garden. I think the child is his but can't fully remember. Firefighter neighbour lives up hill but can see into their home. First meeting is firefighter walking down stopped traffic warning about delay, he recognises his neighbour but they haven't been introduced yet.

I think it was a standalone but might be a spin off from another series where we met the firefighter.
