Smut Actually

by A.V. Davenport, May Lily Fire, P. Lloyd

… Ivy is a woman on the brink of a breakthrough. One little push in the right direction will set her off on an audacious adventure.
… Kristen is a powerhouse of business excellence, used to people cowering in her commanding presence. Until she meets someone who doesn’t.
… Louise is the woman your boyfriend told you not to worry about. She certainly doesn’t worry about you.


If you love an annual re-watch of your favourite Christmas RomComs and get frustrated when scenes skip to the next morning just as they are getting good, then Smut Actually is exactly what you’re looking for.


This festive anthology of filth is a collection of short stories in the run up to a very merry Christmas and makes the perfect naughty little stocking filler. Whether it’s powerful business rivals, a small town farmer, CEO DILF, or a hottie from the highlands you can indulge in a tale or two with no details spared. The female gaze has never seemed so smutty.

About the author

Anne is a senior product manager by day and a writer of pirate and adventure novels by night. She lives in Norway with her toddler son and can be found traipsing the cobbled streets of her hometown Stavanger or walking the fjords for inspiration when she isn't writing.

Anne has moved around a lot and spent 3 yars studying English Literature and Journalism in London before studying Business and Management in Oxford. She has lived in Prague and spent summers in Rome and Barcelona.

When Anne is not fulfilling the duties of adult life she can be found on the sofa enjoying her favourite fantasy and adventure shows, at the gym pretending she is running from foul pirates and building strength for epic battles or at her favourite local cafe sipping bubbly (always cremant, never prosecco).

Anne loves connecting with her readers and can be found via her author instagram account or on her website: https://authoravdavenport.wixsite.com...
She also dabbles on TikTok, but finds it rather embarrassing.

A whimsical, funny exploration of sexuality and fun through a series of short stories from three great new authors, that are sure to keep you warm this winter.

I 𝗟𝗢𝗩𝗘 a good anthology and this was such a fun and 𝙎𝙋𝙄𝘾𝙔 collection of short stories! 🌶️🎄🌶️🎄

This darling book is composed of 15 short stories that are sure to have you smirking even in public. 😏 Steamy, whimsical, risqué… stocking stuffer or not, this is a book you smut loving ladies (and men) out there need to get (especially if you’re like me and shop for yourself). 🙌🏻

Though it is festive anthology, not every story focuses on Christmas. The first third of this book are stories leading up to December/ Christmas. This book is all about the fun random moments of spice be it working from home, in the midst of bad traffic, while on vacation with your research partner, or on the captain’s bridge and I LOVED every page of it! 👏🏻👏🏻

These stories are all their own individual story but they do interlink with each other and the characters, and it was so much fun to read! Fully recommend for a fun, spicy, holiday anthology!

I received this as an ARC & I must say the title is actually what you’ll get … lots & lots of smut! 😄 And it was so fun to read!

Smut Actually contains a series of 15 short stories and an Epilogue written by three authors! If you are in need of a fun and steamy read this is for you!

Because it had short stories, this was the book I would pull out from the kindle on my phone when I was out and about! It kept me entertained, especially when I had to kill time, and it was the perfect fun escape!

It was a cute read to get me through Christmas and New Year's. Some of the wording was quite repetitive, the proofreading wasn't 100%, and there were a couple of inconsistencies. However, that being said, the book as a whole was decent. The stories aligned quite well, and some of the characters were spot on... I'll take Dylan and Ryan, please, and thank you!!
