How the Consent Tags Work

Important: The way I've tagged these works is NOT reflective of what constitutes real life scenarios. It is not the job of erotica authors or archivers to teach you what consent means in the real world. These tags are intended for comfort levels of people reading.

Consensual: All parties are into it and there is no communication otherwise, nor love potions or the like.

Baby It's Cold Outside: All parties are into it. At the same time, either one party has communicated otherwise due to societal expectations, or there was some sort of liquid courage to make it happen. This primarily appeals to people who really want sex, but have a religious/social guilt about it.

Dubious Consent: At least one party has to coerced into it, or otherwise tricked, warmed up to, or forced. However, all parties enjoy it. It is a harder version of Cold Outside.

Non-Consensual: This blog is not likely to ever carry non-con due to the fact the archiver reads all of the works and he really doesn't like reading non-con. Non-con is if at least one party is coerced, tricked, or forced into a sexual scenario and never fully warms up to it- or at least doesn't for a while.

Reign of the Demon Queen by Devon Jaxon

  ($2.99 or Kindle Unlimited) The queen of succubi has been freed from her Nowhere Jail where she then kills a bunch of dudes via sex and definitely enslaves a woman that she insists is not a slave [purchase link] This one is interesting because despite being like 50% sex, it reads less like an erotica and more as a plot-driven story. It also takes a first person route of a top, which I appreciate because you just don't see that very much. Giving this the purchased tag because of the totally-a-slave woman, even though she isn't purchased. Giving this the consensual tag because it reads as consensual, but, well. Slave woman.

Under His Spell by Vivian Blake

($2.99 or Kindle Unlimited) A woman married to a man not afraid of sharing is approached by a devilishly handsome witch. [Purchase Link] I appreciate that this work spent time to establish that everyone wants her to fuck the stranger, but then it kept establishing that for over half the pages which gets annoying. It's also establishing it in that mixed-message way that's supposed to appeal to "I want this but can't say yes due to societal expectation" crowd, you know, the "Baby It's Cold Outside" people. I used to be that crowd, and this would have certainly gotten me off then. Now, as the title suggests, there IS a love potion involved. It's not the "you feel compelled to fuck me now" kind, but the "liquid courage" kind. Personally, I'd have preferred the protagonist consented to the spell, but again, I'm not gonna hold my personal taste against the work. It has its target demo, it hits it, but by hitting its target ...

Sinful Holidays by Rianne Burnett

  ($2.99 or Kindle Unlimited) Mira keeps calling her ex for sexual relief, but decides she has to move on. When she does, though, she ends up getting involved with a serious demon. [Purchase Link] Right up my alley, well-written characters, and hot sex! The scope of the story matches its length (there is a plot thread left unresolved, but that doesn't bother me too much), and it has a good amount of plot-to-sex. It's not quite horror. There is stakes, but the horror element is very light in this book.
