The chili pepper scale rating a book's level of "spice" is a useful way for readers to get a sense of a book’s level of steaminess and choose the reads that appeal to them.
While readers’ definitions of “spice” vary, 4-chili-pepper reads tend to be sexy romance: the steamy scenes are important to the plot, and there are often 4+ explicit open-door sex scenes with more frank descriptive language. These books often contain a wider variety of different sex acts described in greater detail.
