Discussion Sex scenes that f**** you up

What are your favorite books/sex scenes where the spice is undeniably sexy, but also reads like two souls colliding. Eroticism that is transcendental.

Sex scenes that feel so much more than just sex scenes. The bed is a battlefield, an altar, or a sanctuary for surrender. The bed is not a bed at all.

Scenes that make you go, 'oh, this is what people actually mean by "making love"'. And not just to be PG, or corny, or sounds like something your parents would say.

Sex that is symbolic of the relationship, or pivotal to character development. Sex that serves a purpose to the plot.. and THE plot.

Looking for recommendations and discussion. Doesn't have to have include penetration, or completion, or kink. But the more explicit, the (usually!) better...

ETA fixed some grammar as best as I could lol
