Sylvia Day, Sharon Page, Julia Templeton, Lila DiPasqua all have great books. These are my fave books by them:

Sylvia Day- Ask For It, Passion for the Game, A Passion For Him(these three are connected, especially the last 2, so that's the order to read them in), The Stranger I Married, Bad Boys Ahoy!(anthology, but all by SD)


Julia Templeton- The Bargain, The Conquest(connected books), A Dangerous Game, Dangerous Desires.


Sharon Page- Black Silk, Hot Silk(book 2 and 3 of a trilogy. Book 1, called Sin, isn't my fave but you may like it), A Gentleman Seduced. She also writes paranormals that feature threesomes. But I'm not sure if you are interested in that. It's called the Blood Series.


Lila DiPasqua- Awakened By A Kiss, The Princess In His Bed. These are both anthologies written solely by her. She does have a few full length stories, but I haven't gotten my hands on them yet. But I hear that they are very good. If you are interested, they are called Undone and A Midnight Dance. These books are all on fairy tales retold.


I hope that I gave you some that you will enjoy

Has anyone mentioned Maya Banks-not historical all contemp.

She has a series, the titles all start with Sweet, that I have read 2 of and they were good stolid reads. I think there was another of hers that I didn't finish because it just got a little too....lets say the story disappeared and what of a story was left made me close the book. I think that was for her pleasure, but without looking i don't know for sure.

Ooops I see you have Maya Banks in your list...

How about Shaya Black, contemps, but under Shelley Bradley she has a historical that I haven't read called....Strickly Seduction

I thought of one more that I loved...The Captivation by Natasha Rostova.

Very good...but not with the typical romance novel ending.

You could look into Monica Burns. Two that I've read are Kismet and Pleasure Me. I also got a sample excerpt of Grace Calloway's Her Husband's Harlot on my kindle and it was pretty hot. You could also investigate Silvia Violet's historicals (she writes in several genres)/ I've only read one so far, A Carnal Agreement.

A new historical author that I've been impressed with is Cecilia Grant. Though not what I would call "erotica", still quite hot: A Lady Awakened and A Gentleman Undone

I've read 2 of Maya Banks' Sweet Series but I admit that the rest were a bit too much for me.. especially when it came to the whole 'slave and master' business. My favourite was Sweet Seduction.

Here are my suggestions although not every chapter has a love scene, they come pretty close and the sexual tension is quite.. titillating!

The Mad Bad Duke by Jennifer Ashley (I loved how JA used the lovespell to bring these two together. The first love scene is memorable. I still can't get it out of my mind!!!)
Lord Ruin by Carolyn Jewel (Another one of my favorites. The heroine was the sweetest person and the hero was so sensual. I favored the second love scene in this one.)
Ravishing in Red by Madeline Hunter (I liked the story in this. I really enjoyed the hero's brother's role and how it sculpted our heroes' relationship)
Lady Sophia's Lover by Lisa Kleypas (Oh gosh, Ross Cannon is one of my all time favourite heroes. He is such a decent, moral man.)
To Seduce a Sinner and The Leopard Prince by Elizabeth Hoyt (TSAS is easily in my top 5 best reads. Here the hero stole the show. Whenever he adressed his wife (who propositioned marriage to him out of convenience) as ''My Sweet/ My Lady Wife" I just melted. TLP is interesting because the hero is of no title. The heroine is a Lady.)

I must admit that I am a very picky reader (hence my username) and I tend to favor plotlines revolving around arranged marriage/marriage of convenience. All of the above use more or less the same plot device (except The Leopard Prince and Lady Sophia's Lover).

If I had to rate them, the least steamiest are To Seduce a Sinner and Ravishing in Red. The steamiest would probably be The Leopard Prince only because it has more graphic scenes not more in quantity.

If you are interested in a free contemporary novella, I would recommend "Beauty touched the Beast" by Skye Warren. If you visit her site you will find you can download it for free. Beauty may have touched the beast but the beast touched me deeply. Such a moving story.
