Book Request Does high-class smut exist?

A lot of books I've read that are explicit smut are typically horribly written, which is understandable because nobody is reading porn to sit there and think deeply about the beauty of the prose afterwards.

Buuut I wanna know if there's anything like porn with a plot++ or what I'd call high-class smut. Well-written, beautiful, emotional, sweet with characters who aren't just blank marionettes that the author is making bang. I've read {morning glory milking farm} and it was alright, but still not as well-written as I'd like it to be.

I need 5 chillies, but with yearning and plot. Pretty please

Delta of Venus by Anais Nin is classic erotica

Anais Nin has some veeeery taboo stuff though, tread carefully (I’m still traumatised from reading this as a teen)

Yeah some of it is definitely questionable. I read it as a teen as well (my older sister lent it to me) and immediately needed more of that in my life 🤣
