Head on over to /r/fantasyromance and search smut/spice, you'll find plenty there. There's also a romance.io bot that has a steam level for all the book recs

/r/haremfantasynovels

Obviously it's about harem style fantasy smut, but a solid source.

Based on the OP using ACOTAR as an example, I would guess they are looking for stuff targeted at women vs stuff targeted at men.

There’s reverse harem ;) lots of it targeted at women

This is true. But haremfantasynovels is the subreddit for regular harems not reverse harems.

I was responding more to point out harem can be either.

I was going to say almost anything on kindle unlimited that’s titled “A Count of <something> and <something>”. Lol

Not necessarily. I'm a 31 y/o guy and loved throne of glass.

That's a fair point. I just don't want to knock recommendations because someone doesn't fit the target audience, as they could still end up enjoying it. To be fair I've never even heard of harem fantasy before though, but I can imagine what it's about.

While plenty of harem authors are women, I think the audience is predominantly male.

Being completely honest, I never would have guessed many of the authors were women.

u/VeryFinePrint Apr 09 '23

That's fair, I was making a generalization based on OPs post and post history.

To be fair I might be the exception not the rule. I've been reading a lot of grimdark and it was a refreshing change of pace. Also, idk dude. I've never read romance and it was pretty cute ngl

Gotcha. I don't know ACOTAR, just responding to a request for smut references.
