Meg is a 1960 sleaze novel written by Robert Silverberg (as Loren Beauchamp). A tale of the horrors lying in wait for small-town girls trying to make it in Hollywood. Fun novel about Hollywood's sleazy underbelly and a woman’s search for love.

Orrie Hitt’s 1954 novel She Got What She Wanted is fairly typical of his work, blending noir fiction and sleaze fiction. This one is very noir, as a girl gets tired of living on farm and heads to the big city to make her fortune, at any cost.

It's not just noirish, it's very good noirish fiction.

Tong in Cheek (1973), 2nd of Gardner Francis Fox’s Cherry Delight sexy spy thrillers written under the name Glen Chase.

Cherry is a secret agent working for N.Y.M.P.H.O., a shadowy top-secret US government agency.

This time she is up against an alliance between the Mafia and Chinese tongs.

If spy sleaze is your thing you’ll enjoy it.

Gordon Semple's 1945 sleaze novel Bad Company is about Eileen Cooper. Whether she's bad company or good company depends on what you want from a girl. If you want love, devotion and home-baked cookies then she’s bad company. If you want a good time in bed and you have plenty of money she can be very good company.

She is not just a cheap hooker. She’s very expensive.

Plenty of emotional and sexual melodrama here.

Jack Oleck’s 1959 novel Messalina belongs to a rather interesting sub-genre which we could perhaps call historical sleaze fiction - historical fiction with the emphasis on sex, sin and scandal. The book is undoubtedly wildly inaccurate historically but it's fun trash.
