This is the fifth volume of the Best Lesbian Erotica of the Year anthology series, which features representations of queer women, non-binary, and trans women’s sexuality that are not as frequently seen—with ability, race, ethnicity, class, neuro-diversity, ace-spectrum, age, religion, or other marginalized viewpoints. #Ownvoices stories are of importance to this volume. The anthology is not limited to certain kinds of sex acts. “Vanilla,” BDSM, fetish, ace, and all kinds of sensual and sexual expression make an appearance. There is no limit of sexual identities: mommy, mistress, sir, puppy, girl, servant, etc.

Testing the boundaries of pleasure and pain . . . To be so full of longing you ache for release . . . Coming to climax without a single touch. The fifth volume of the Best Lesbian Erotica of the Year anthology series explores and expands on the very definition of eroticism with a diverse mix of queer, non-binary, trans, and polyamorous #ownvoices that will have you quivering with delight and wondering what more you can explore--no matter how you identify. More than just steamy sex stories, this volume offers the quiet sexuality of emotional security, the overwhelming thrill of discovering something new, and a tale for every taste--from vanilla to kink, to strap-ons and sodomy. Now more than ever, it is crucial to see unique, underrepresented viewpoints across the literary spectrum. Award-winning author and editor Sinclair Sexsmith delivers in an anthology that is both tender and tantalizing, emotional and evocative.
