Eroticism is difficult to capture, even though we all know what it is. It’s a perfect example of a true feeling, because any definition does it justice.

The authors we’re recommending below, are actual magicians, though. We loved reading these books so much they’re officially re-readable (and that’s rare for books these days).

So warm up your imagination and capture the essence of what eroticism and arousal means to you. These books certainly bring it.

#1 Stranger in the Wharf by Heather-Anne Paul

Kenneth Halpern-Smith is a single-ish professional father of none. He is a Caucasian and a successful accountant for a large international finance company.

One day during the hectic lunch period in Canary Wharf, the capital’s business centre, these two entities collide…

The fusion is explosive.”

#8 The Endless Autumn by Annabelle Bell

Needing to change her life drastically Autumn meets a mysterious and sexy stranger who could be the solution to her problems.

Autumn is thrown into a luxurious new world. One that is powered by high flyers, fantasies and carnal desires. How will she escape? Or, does this new world hold the key to her own fulfilment?

#9 Under Purple Sheets by Coco Huston

The author has taken a brave step by writing her story based on an affair with a married man. It is honest, intriguing, as well as sexually explicit. It is sad and funny as we go through the roller coaster of the affair with her. She makes you laugh with her, and you feel her pain. You are the judge and can decide whether she gets what she deserves or not. She proves to us that self-inflicted destruction is the hardest medicine to swallow. Under Purple Sheets is like no other novel you have read before, and it is written in a way that it makes you question your own opinion and thoughts on having an affair. A dangerous game we all think about playing, yet the author makes us consider that if we engage in this, then we are either very brave or incredibly stupid to do so. Her personality is as magnetic as it is bewildering, and she stands out in a crowd, commanding attention. Under Purple Sheets is just as likely to pull from critics as much controversial opinions on the book as we all have about her life.
