Synopsis

Best Women's Erotica of the Year, Volume 3 delivers the kind of sexy stories you want most: daring, bold, and surprising tales of women who pursue their boundless passions anywhere and everywhere. Edited by Rachel Kramer Bussel, winner of multiple Independent Publishing Book Awards, these scintillating scenarios turn the tables on how women are "supposed" to behave. Instead, these uninhibited vixens indulge in their favorite fetishes, do deliciously intimate "Body Shots," and get tied up with "Red Satin Ribbons." They pose nude, dress up, and roleplay, always obeying their most exhilarating impulses. These lusty ladies take your most cherished, private fantasies--from making a sex tape, to taking part in a thrilling threesome, to having a stud delivered to your door hot and ready--and make them come alive. Written by beloved authors Abigail Barnette, Annabel Joseph, and Charlotte Stein along with several genre newcomers, these are erotic encounters you'll want to savor again and again and again...

Review:

                    "This year's collection of erotic shorts lives up to its title, covering a variety of kinks and characters." Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Editor Bussel...has curated a variety of quality stories with care and intention, highlighting women reclaiming their agency through erotic experiences." Library Journal (starred review) "Tamsin Flowers's shortie is just one of 22 kinky stories included in the comprehensive book of Best Women's Erotica of the Year, Volume 3. It turns a workplace acquaintanceship into a birthday threesome when a married man gifts his wife with the ultimate surprise: a woman in a box, wrapped in red satin ribbons, just waiting to be opened." O, The Oprah Magazine
"A perfect blend of romance and raunch, this book proved to be titillating and a continuous page turner." Slutty Girl Problems
"Sink your teeth into these female-focused stories wherein our heroines explore their boundless passions and fantasies in a variety of page-turning of ways." Stylecaster
"'Making It Feel Right' is a beautiful story about a woman seeking a BDSM experience as a submissive, only to discover a fondness for domination. It was an incredibly empowering story. The other 20 stories provided perfectly curated selections with strong female characters who are in the driver's seat when it comes to sexual exploration." Romancing the Blog
"From Abigail Barnette's standout story, 'The Birthday Gift,' a sexy twist on what men really want, to Charlotte Stein's thrillingly literary and darkly sexy 'The Skin of Someone Else,' this is the kind of hot, surprising and brainy collection that will charge imaginations and ignite readers' passions for many well-worn pages. I ate this one up." -- L. Marie Adeline, author of the S.E.C.R.E.T. trilogy
"Rich, challenging, and deeply erotic, each story invited me to explore a different part of my erotic imagination. My body couldn't help but respond. Beyond the simple pleasures of seduction and sex, this collection offers gritty, defiant, nuanced journeys into what can be possible when you shed the weight of expectations and invite yourself into your own desires. The erotic is not clean, easy, or simple, and neither are the rich, nuanced stories of this collection. You will not find perfect characters falling into wordless sex within these pages. Instead, you'll find yourself naked and trembling, caught off guard from the unexpected, deliciously sensual mess that is the erotic. Surrender, as I did, to the breathtaking ride that is Best Women's Erotica of the Year, Volume 3." -- Dawn Serra, sex educator and host of Sex Gets Real podcast
