Since the request was for "recent fiction," cutting Twain & Shakespeare out of the reading pool shouldn't matter.
I tried sorting through my recent reads and found most of them are in the "romance" genre. Some aren't explicit, but they're probably not the target selection. I plan on poking through some of Baen's offerings, looking at the fantasy instead of science fiction set, and seeing if they've got any without swearing or sex. (I'm thinking some of Mercedes Lackey's books, perhaps.)
