Introduction: Totally Outrageous in Every Way
If you’re ready for some outrageous sex, you’ve come to the right place. For Best Women’s Erotica of the Year, Volume 5, I asked authors to get as wild and over-the-top as they could. They delivered hot fantasies and incredibly arousing tales they delivered achieved those ends in ways that went far beyond my expectations.
We start out with a business negotiation that takes a turn I imagine isn’t an everyday occurrence in your office (though lucky you if it is!) in “Terms,” by Sierra Simone, before turning to a special kind of dirty talk in “Just Inappropriate,” by Alexa J. Day. Then Sabrina Sol brings us a spin on the Oval Office that’s totally steamy in
“At the Pleasure of the President.”
The twist in the futuristic “Outlaws,” by Angel Leigh McCoy, offers a striking take on the power of the written
word and the need for intimate human contact, while “Nymph and Satyr,” by Justine Elyot, will likely have you wanting to visit an art museum very soon.
When you call a phone sex line, who’s the woman working on the other end? What are her fantasies, dreams, and desires? These are some of the questions best-selling author Balli Kaur Jaswal explores in “After Midnight” (and
if you haven’t read her novel, Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows, it’s a fabulous story). For a sweet and definitely dirty spin on workplace lust, “Frosting,” by Kathleen Delaney-Adams, takes us on a lesbian sex fest in a cupcake bakery that will have you licking your lips.
In Lee Minxton’s “Dirty Girls Always Go tTo Heaven,” Laney shows Erik what happens to “boys who tease” (spoiler alert: a very hot activity that’s a popular sexual fantasy).
Those with a mermaid fetish or who are curious about how mermaids get it on will adore the beautifully written
“If the Ocean,” by Loretta Black. Then Emerald gives us “Something New” as a couple turns from monogamy to a different way of expressing themselves sexually. Travel back in time to “The Summer of 1669” in Jayne Renault’s story of forbidden love and desire.
In Anna Mia Hansen’s moving “Broken Thing Fixed,” Sigrid helps Bjorn, while helping herself as well, while in “One Interpretation,” by Stella Harris, a professor gets an unexpected visitor who turns her approach to teaching,
and sex, on its head.
In A. Zimmerman’s kinky “Peripheral Voyeurism,” Claire attends a BDSM party with Ryan and pushes herself and her obedience. An exhibitionist discovers the thrill of showing off, naked, in “Dancing wWith Myself,” by Quinn LeStrange.
Anyone who’s ever been through the agony and the ecstasy of moving will appreciate the sexy thrill that’s
uncovered in “Vintage Treasures,” by Angora Shade.
In “Sheer Pleasure,” by A. Z. Louise, “enby princex” Billie discovers the scintillating allure of a certain type of
sexy clothing that changes everything.
In “The First Moment I Saw You,” prolific romance novelist Caridad Piñeiro puts a very hot spin on instant attraction.
Popular erotic romance novelist CD Reiss gives us “The King’s Return,” in which an estranged couple discovers
that the power of BDSM still binds them—with a twist.
To round out this collection, we’ve upped the ante on the outrageousness, with a ripped-from-real-life tale from award-winning porn star and director Joanna Angel, “One Last Gang Bang,” and another portrait of a specific subculture, the world of aerialists, in the lesbian public sex extravaganza “Spin,” by Lauren Emily.
As I hope I’ve made clear, there are many ways to be outrageous on display here, sometimes literally, sometimes with more nuanced approaches. All of these stories, though, have characters who are anything but prim and
demure. They sometimes have to overcome hurdles, internal and external, to pursuing sexual pleasure, but when
they do, they find themselves relishing the kind of bliss they crave.
I hope you enjoy these stories as much as I did. Please keep in touch by emailing me at bweoftheyear@gmail.com
