A Kiss From a Merman
(2026)(The eighth book in the Kiss From a Monster series)
A novel by Charlotte Swan
Astryd’s luck has just run out.
Living a life of contented solidarity, Astryd’s biggest concern is whether her boss at Sugarfish Bakery will cut her wages for the week. She had been a fool not to leave town when she had the chance. Rioutous seas have left the port-city of Bluewater without food and supplies. People are starving in the streets and listening to a madman who claims to have all the answers.
That’s what leads her to be chained to a giant rock in the middle of the sea, offered up as a sacrifice to the Kraken by the evil Captain Blacktide.
Prince Qurill of the Darksea is hiding from his responsibilities. Knowing he should return home and face his parents’ expectations, he gives himself one more day of revelry in Bluewater Bay. That’s when he spots her—the lovely human woman close to death and chained to a rock. He quickly frees her and takes her back to his palace to heal.
When she awakens, Qurill quickly realizes she’s exactly who he’s been scouring the seas for. There’s only one problem: Astryd is only giving them a night to be together. Qurill knows that to keep her with him below the waves, he’ll have to prove just how pleasurable life with him can be.
Will Astryd give in to her desires and make a life with the merman who’s captured her heart? Or will the promise of the quiet life of solitude she’s been working towards keep her from diving headfirst into love?
This is a short and spicy monster romance novella about a dominant merman and the human woman he'll stop at nothing to claim. For a full list of content warnings, please check out the author's website.
