1. All Fours by Miranda July
When a woman in her mid-40s leaves Los Angeles for a solo road trip, what begins as a break from routine morphs into a surreal, sensual exploration of identity, freedom and desire. A boundary-pushing, unclassifiable read — part memoir, part erotic novel, and fully captivating.

Sensual, offbeat and unforgettable — just like this book. Spritz on this sultry aphrodisiac fragrance to tap into your own confident, main-character energy.
2. One Golden Summer by Carley Fortune
A woman at a crossroads. A lakeside cottage. A golden boy she thought she'd never see again. This slow-burn romance unfolds over one magical summer, with emotional layers, longing glances, and all the nostalgic feels. This novel nails the ache of almost-love.
Pair it with: HighOnLove Sensual Bath Salts
Let this calming soak — with Himalayan pink and Epsom salts, rose petals, lavender, and hemp seed oil — ease you into every sun-drenched, heart-tugging chapter.
3. Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry
Two rival authors arrive at a remote island to compete for an heiress’s story — but instead, they find themselves entangled in a whirlwind of banter, unresolved attraction, and unexpected emotional honesty. A perfectly paced romance full of wit, tension and sexy moments.

4. Problematic Summer Romance by Ali Hazelwood
A neurodivergent professor. A moody, irresistible rock star. Thrown together for a cross-country summer tour, their clashing personalities give way to intellectual sparks and red-hot chemistry. Hazelwood’s signature blend of smarts and steam hits all the right notes.
Pair it with: HighOnLove Stimulating O Gel
This bestselling gel is designed to heighten pleasure and enhance sensitivity — perfect for stories that start with tension and end with fireworks.
5. Can’t Get Enough by Kennedy Ryan
When ultra-confident Hendrix crosses paths with Maverick, the tech mogul she swore she’d never fall for, sparks fly — and so do a few rules. This second-chance romance delivers smouldering tension, emotional depth and grown-up chemistry that’s as heart-thumping as it is heat-inducing.
Pair it with: HighOnLove Sensual Massage Candle
Light it up and let the warm, scented oil melt into your skin for a luxurious massage moment — soft, comforting, and filled with rekindled heat.
