The Spiciest Books I have ever read

Purple Star emoji 25 items
These are hands down the spiciest books I have ever read. Sometimes you need a quicky standalone to cleanse the pallet before moving on. Other times you need an entire series that has you reading between the sheets at 3am!

A delicious dark romance with plenty of spice and an insanely dark plot twist. Our main character Isadora is hired as a companion for our MMC's mother, but within a handful of days Isadora starts to occupy Lucian Blackthorne's every thought. Together...

This was probably my first proper dark romance book and boy did it deliver! Make sure to check your triggers going into this, but for me, this was such a good time!
Den of Vipers by K.A. Knight

My very first why choose. Ahhh memories. This book had me sweating about reading it in public, but yet I couldn't get enough! You will not want to put this book down!
Court of the Vampire Queen by Katee Robert

The main reason I read this book is because is was mentioned in a TikTok and this was literally the line that made me buy this book; “If you read Iron Flame and ate up that throne scene….” *proceeds to hold up book*
This book gave me a whole new definition of slow burn, but was still a deliciously spicy time!
Throne of the Fallen (Prince of Sin, #1) by Kerri Maniscalco

I picked up this book because I'd heard a few things about it, and I devored it within 24 hours. I had lines in this book living rent free in my head!
You need to read this book!
Phantasma (Wicked Games, #1) by Kaylie Smith

I just finished this, and it takes the trophy for the spiciest book I have ever read. This title previously belonged to Court of the Vampire Queen.
This book was scene, after scene, after scene.

This book is not shy about spice! This was my first Jennifer L Armentrout book and it truly got me hooked into her style of writing.
The spice in this book is immaculate!

I had read most of the King of books, but this one, hands down is probably my favourite. Dante has such a wicked mouth and I am absolutely obssessed with Vivian!

While there isn't much spice in the first 2/3rds of this book, it more than makes up for it in the end! When Nyktos uses his Ether during seggsy time 🥵🥵

I had read Flesh and Fire first so I knew I was moving towards From Blood and Ash. This book delivers on the spice and so much more!

Similar to Flesh and Fire #3, the spice doesn't really come until the end of this book, but yet again, it does not disappoint!
