Contents Notes:

Steam Level:

Steam levels vary based on how explicit the romantic content is, starting with the G-rated, emotional moment of a first kiss to the erotic scene of two people making love.

G-Rated– Brief moments of physical contact, a chaste kiss. It is mainly about the emotional connection and yearning for the love interest.

Sweet– Is more flirtatious with a physical connection and possible make out sessions. It can contain hints of further intimacy behind closed doors but doesn’t include explicit scenes directly.

Sensual/Steamy- The romance exhibits physical touch, but these books contain no more than two sex scenes, and those scenes are largely emotion-based. The intimate scenes can be descriptive but tend to use more euphemistic language, nothing incredibly crude or crass.

Extra Steamy- The books are explicit but still tasteful. It includes emotional aspects while also being physically descriptive. But erotic does not mean incorporating sex for the sake of a sex scene. This level ties in well with character growth and connection. (This level can also be called erotic. But I will use steamy, since the word erotic has bad connotations with it.)
