Who would enjoy arriving at the cinema only to find that the film is already halfway through? Starting sex with immediate penetration is like skipping to the end of a film without having seen the beginning. So much of the fun, excitement and arousal happens at the foreplay stage! You know, the groping, the passionate kissing… The series: Ryan O’Connell stars in this semi-autobiographical dramedy about a gay man with cerebral palsy. In the series, Ryan Hayes has attempted to take control of his life and be more than his medical diagnosis as he navigates relationships, friendships and independence.

What makes it steamy: Humor is an important part of our lives and can have a rewarding presence in the bedroom as well. It’s also important to see sex workers as human beings capable of kindness and affection. Ryan’s constant astonishment and Shay’s joy at being a part of that moment is a lovely reminder that sweet and steamy are perfect combinations. The series: In the tourist town of Cesenatico, Italy, teenager Summer Bennati (Coco Rebecca Edogamhe) begins working at a hotel where she meets Ale Alba (Ludovico Tersigni), a well-known motorcycle racer whose mother owns the hotel. Summer and Ale clash immediately but cannot deny their attraction. The two must deal with changing friendships, family troubles, jealous exes and figuring out what they really want from their lives, but it doesn’t stop them from forming a romantic attachment. The scene: Beth lets her guard down and starts dating Logan, which irritates her ex Keith (Jay R. Ferguson), who threatens to take custody of their child. Beth refuses to let Keith bully her any longer and tells him off, lighting a fire in her. She drives to Logan’s house, where he is using an outside shower to clean up after a hard day of manual labor. Beth barges in, joins Logan under the shower spray and, without saying a word, begins to work off the rush of adrenaline from owning her power. Still fully clothed, Logan gives her everything she needs, and it’s smoking hot.
