Hey, does anyone have recommendations for spicy wlw books?
I loved Mistakes were made by Meryl Wilsner and own the three books of Delilah green doesn’t care.
I’m also a fantasy reader, so a wlw fantasy would also be great!
Mistakes Were Made is probably the spiciest wlw book I’ve read (their new book, Cleat Cute, is a close second lol). But here are a few recs:
For contemporary romance, The Fiancée Farce, D’Vaughn and Kris Plan a Wedding, and Kiss Her Once For Me.
For fantasy, A Restless Truth is a good one! It’s book 2 in a series (the first features a mlm couple). The series is very romance-focused with a few spicy scenes in each book, and it kind of has fanfic vibes if that makes sense?
I’ve read a lot of wlw fantasies but I wouldn’t consider many of them to be spicy… at the most they have one scene and it’s usually fade to black. I will say Priory of the Orange Tree has one of my favorite romantic scenes, but it’s just one out of 500 pages of dense fantasy lol.
I own Cleat Cute to! I have not read it yet.
I also heard alot of good things about Priory of the Orange tree, but don’t own it yet.
I will look into the others you mentioned! Thank you so much!
a game of hearts and heists is a lesbian fantasy that’s smutty but overall i didn’t live the fantasy aspect much, it felt poorly done idk. but if you’re not looking for an amazing book, just a fantasy with like semi frequent to frequent gay sex then that’s your book. one of the main characters also said a lot of stuff that i found cringey lol but
@menen I will look into it, thank you!
I also just remembered this book I read last year called The Fate of the Stars - it’s a sapphic retelling of the little mermaid with some smut lol. I didn’t love it because it has a beauty and the beast Stockholm syndrome thing going on which is an ick for me, also it’s self published so it isn’t super well edited. But a lot of people love it and it was highly recommended when I picked it up, it just wasn’t for me :’)
You can check out Tryst Six Venom by Penelope Douglas...if you are into dark romance and a lil bit of trouble
