BDSM Erotica and Erotic Romance. 

Who Should I Read First?

BDSM erotica and erotic romance is really HOT now and has been since 50 Shades of Grey came out over a year ago. Actually, BDSM fiction has been around for a very long time and there are many amazing authors. Thank you, EL James for bringing new readers to this genre. Maybe you aren't new to this genre and you have several favorite authors on your auto-buy or auto-download list. My dream is that someday I’ll be added to your list.

When 50 Shades came out, EVERYONE decided to pound out a BDSM story on their keyboard or three or eight and toss it up on the internet for sale, then turn them into multi-book series. Don’t get me wrong, some of those books are fabulous. I've listed a few below. However, some are not so good. While others, as always, is a matter of personal taste.

Sooo, where do you start when you’re looking for good BDSM erotica and erotic romance, but have no idea where to start? Here’s my list: (And this is by far only a small sample of great books out there. I’m sure you’ll have a number of others to add that I missed. These were selected by me and an author friend who is an avid reader in this genre. I’m sure I have read some and missed a few. And I have tons on my NOOK I haven't had a chance to read yet. These are not in any particular order.
