With the release of Fifty Shades Freed, the final film in the infamously sexy trilogy, it's impossible not to think about the original book that started it all: Fifty Shades of Gray. Author EL James's book was (obviously) a total sensation, and many would argue that nothing else really compares to the now iconic series.

Erotica has always been a popular genre, but until Christian Gray and Anastasia Steele came along, it wasn't necessarily something much talked about. Since Fifty Shades, however, the genre has expanded enormously. That's good news as the recent movie versions are about to end leaving a giant Fifty Shades hole in the shape of your heart.

Whether you're looking for something as sexually charged as Fifty Shades or something more on the traditionally romantic side, the list of books below should get you covered. (And while not all of these are about BDSM, some are talking about the topic).

You are welcome in advance.

The stories are about how the two got together five years after an intense affair, and it is full of passion, revenge and of course a lot of secrets. You can buy these from Amazon.

Like the Fifty Shades series, A Million Dirty Secrets also began as a Twilight fan fiction.
