I'm kinda in a reading slump and i'm looking for something to get me out of it. I figured a good ol spicy book might do the trick.
I'm looking for something that is gloriously smutty. i'm taking about my toes curling already in chapter 1. i'm open to men, minotaurs and even krakens. I have ZERO triggers. I just want to have a good smutty time.
But the problem with some of these I've tried reading is that they are full of typos and there aren't many books written well. It's just repetitive smut and I end up not getting into it.
I want there to be a plot and romance too, so I feel satisfied when I reach the end of the book.
So let me know. What's the smuttiest book that you've read, that's also written well?

Have you tried fanfiction lol
Try using romance.io. You’ll be able to filter by spice level.

Ask the girlies over in r/RomanceBooks, no matter how specific the request they always find what people are looking for.
The smuttiest writer I can think of is AJ Merlin, but I’m sure they’ll know someone smuttier
I really enjoyed the Dark Olympus and Wicked Villains series by Katee Robert. First series is based on different Greek myths and Gods (beginning with Hades and Persephone in Neon Gods) and the second series is if Disney/fairytale villains, heroes, and heroines were members of a sex dungeon and part of the criminal underworld. Very smutty, a good bit of danger/action, and romance. Dark Olympus is ongoing with 9 books so far and a tenth one publishing this year and Wicked Villains is completed with 6 full novels and one collection of short stories/epilogues to the original novels.
I can’t attest to misspellings as I listed to these as audiobooks, but the narrators were all very good!
Kushiel’s Dart. It’s high fantasy with a lot of BDSM sex. The sequel is good, too, but I’m lukewarm on the third book.
It’s definitely more “high fantasy with smut” than “smut in a high fantasy setting,” though so if you want lots of banging right from the beginning it’s not the choice for you.
Emanuelle by Emanuelle Arsan is a classic. No like monsters or anything, but it has everything else and is above all quite well written.
Scandalized by Ivy Owen’s is a bit spicy but it’s also a cute story
The claiming of sleeping beauty by A.N. Roquelaure (Ann Rice Pseudonym)
Pounded in the Butt by My Own Butt by Chuck Tingle
If you like it, there’s a whole Pounded in the Butt series
Anais Nin is an original in this sense, and truly beautifully written, though there is more emphasis on the literary than the erotica.
Breath Mints and Battlescars by Onyx. Do not sleep on fanfics
