Smut

The term “smut” in literature generally refers to novels or stories that feature explicit romantic or sexual content, designed to capture readers’ attention through intense, intimate scenes.

Unlike traditional romance novels, which may build up to a single love scene or focus primarily on emotional development, smut books often place sensuality at the forefront of the story. These books aren’t just about the romance; they are meant to engage readers with vivid depictions of passion, often without shying away from detail.

Smut books are typically fast-paced, with characters whose chemistry drives the story. While some smut books fall into the romance genre, others mix with genres like fantasy, thriller, or even comedy, broadening their appeal. They might feature everything from forbidden love and slow-burn attraction to impulsive romance, giving readers a wide range of experiences to enjoy.
