For merman romance, think outside the big-name publishers. 'NineStar Press' focuses on LGBTQ+ speculative fiction and is very receptive to creative takes on mythical creatures. 'Crescent Moon Press' (though small) has a soft spot for paranormal romance with unique hooks. If your story leans toward new adult or young adult, 'Flux' or 'Entangled Teen' might be worth pitching, assuming the merman angle fits their tone. Always double-check submission guidelines—some publishers have specific tropes they’re tired of, so tailor your query accordingly.

I’ve been writing mermaid and merman romances for years, and finding the right publisher is half the battle. 'Boroughs Publishing Group' is fantastic for spicy, character-driven stories, and they’re open to paranormal elements. 'Dreamspinner Press' is another favorite—they lean toward LGBTQ+ romance, so if your merman story includes queer relationships, they’re a top pick. 'Changeling Press' accepts shorter, steamier submissions, which works well if your merman romance is on the smuttier side. Smaller presses like 'The Wild Rose Press' also have a 'Fantasy Rose' line that’s perfect for aquatic love stories. Just make sure your manuscript is polished and fits their submission guidelines—niche genres like this need to stand out.

If you’re diving into the world of merman romance, start with digital-first publishers. 'JMS Books' is a smaller press that welcomes LGBTQ+ and paranormal romance, and they’re known for quick turnaround times. 'Pride Publishing' (part of Totally Entwined Group) is another solid choice for erotic or romantic fantasy with mermen. For a broader audience, 'City Owl Press' has a 'Mythic Owl' imprint that loves supernatural romance. Don’t forget to check out 'Deep Desires Press,' which specializes in oceanic and creature romance—they’d probably adore a well-written merman story.

I’ve noticed a lot of mermaid and merman romances popping up lately, and publishers are catching on. 'Loose Id' used to be a go-to for this niche, but since they closed, 'Evernight Publishing' has filled the gap with their openness to paranormal and fantasy erotica. 'Black Rose Writing' is more traditional but has been expanding into genre romance, so a literary-leaning merman story might appeal to them. Self-publishing is also huge for niche romance—if you’re struggling to find a traditional home, consider going indie via Amazon KDP or Draft2Digital.

I’ve got some solid leads for merman romance submissions. 'Harlequin' has a specific line called 'Carina Press' that’s open to aquatic-themed romance, including mermen, as long as the story has strong emotional depth. 'Siren Publishing' is another great option—they specialize in paranormal and fantasy romance, and merman stories fit right in.

For indie-friendly options, 'Entangled Publishing' occasionally accepts supernatural romance, though their submissions are selective. 'Sourcebooks Casablanca' has been known to pick up quirky, high-concept romance, so if your merman story has a unique twist, they’re worth a shot. Lastly, don’t overlook digital-first publishers like 'Samhain Publishing' (though they’ve scaled back, they still accept reprints) or 'Less Than Three Press,' which focuses on LGBTQ+ romances and might be perfect for a diverse merman love story.

As someone who adores fantasy romance, I've always been fascinated by merman lore and the unique love stories it inspires. One book that stands out is 'The Sea King' by C.L. Wilson, a lush, atmospheric tale about a fierce warrior princess and a mysterious merman king. The world-building is breathtaking, and the slow-burn romance is utterly addictive. Another favorite is 'Of Poseidon' by Anna Banks, which blends humor, mythology, and a sweet, forbidden love between a human girl and a merman prince. For those who enjoy darker, grittier romance, 'To Kill a Kingdom' by Alexandra Christo delivers a siren-merman twist on 'The Little Mermaid,' with enemies-to-lovers tension and gorgeous prose. If you prefer lighter, contemporary takes, 'The Merman's Kiss' by Tamsin Ley is a fun, steamy read with a small-town setting and quirky characters. Lastly, 'The Deep' by Alma Katsu reimagines mermen as eerie, otherworldly beings in a historical horror-romance setting. Each of these books offers a fresh spin on merman romance, catering to different tastes.

As someone who devours romance novels like candy, I've noticed a fascinating surge in merman romance books this year. The trend seems to have been sparked by the unexpected success of 'The Sea Witch\'s Lover' by Lila Gwynne, which blends oceanic mythology with steamy romance. Publishers are jumping on this wave, releasing titles like 'Beneath the Azure Waves' and 'Siren's Kiss' at an almost monthly rate.

Social media, especially TikTok and Instagram, has played a huge role in popularizing this niche, with fan art and book edits flooding feeds.

As someone who’s read every merman romance under the sea (figuratively, of course), I can confidently say that some publishers consistently deliver the best aquatic love stories. Harlequin’s 'Nocturne' line has some fantastic paranormal mermaid and merman romances, like 'The Mermaid’s Knight' by Jill Myles, which blends myth and passion beautifully. Then there’s Entangled Publishing, which specializes in steamy paranormal romance—their 'Covet' imprint has titles like 'Ocean’s Kiss' by Demelza Carlton, a swoon-worthy tale of forbidden love between a merman and a human. For indie lovers, Tule Publishing has gems like 'The Merman’s Kiss' by Tamsen Parker, which offers a fresh, emotional take on the subgenre. If you’re into darker, grittier stories, Sourcebooks Casablanca’s 'Dead in the Water' by Hailey Edwards dives into merman lore with a thrilling twist. And let’s not forget small presses like Kraken Press, which focuses exclusively on aquatic romance—their 'Siren’s Curse' series is a must-read for fans of deep-sea drama and heart-stopping romance. Each of these publishers brings something unique to the table, whether it’s lush world-building or sizzling chemistry.

How To Find Merman Romance Books With Audiobooks?

As someone who adores both fantasy romance and audiobooks, finding merman romance with audio options is a delightful hunt. I’d start by checking platforms like Audible or Libro.fm, filtering for paranormal romance or fantasy subgenres. Titles like 'The Siren' by Tiffany Reisz or 'Of Neptune' by Anna Banks often pop up with audio versions. Another trick is searching Goodreads lists like 'Best Mermaid/Merman Romance' and then cross-referencing those titles on audiobook platforms. Some indie authors, like C.N. Crawford, also offer audiobooks through platforms like Scribd or even YouTube. Don’t overlook Kindle Unlimited—many KU mermaid romances include Whispersync narration. Lastly, joining Facebook groups like 'Paranormal Romance Lovers' can lead to hidden gems recommended by fellow audio enthusiasts.

Do Merman Romance Books Have Movie Adaptations?

5 Answers2025-07-31 06:20:56
As someone who's dived deep into the world of mythical romance, I can say merman romance books are a niche but growing genre, and a few have indeed gotten the Hollywood treatment. The most notable is probably 'The Shape of Water,' which, while not directly adapted from a book, shares themes with many merman romance novels. It’s a visually stunning film that captures the ethereal beauty and forbidden love often found in these stories. Another example is the TV adaptation of 'Siren,' which started as a web series and later became a Freeform show. While not strictly a romance, it delves into relationships between humans and merfolk, blending drama and fantasy. Fans of books like 'Of Poseidon' by Anna Banks might find 'Siren' appealing, though it’s more action-packed than the typical romance novel. There’s also 'Aquamarine,' a lighter, teen-focused movie based on the book by Alice Hoffman, which centers on a mermaid’s summer fling. The adaptation pool is small, but with the rising popularity of fantasy romance, I wouldn’t be surprised to see more merman love stories hitting screens soon.

As someone who devours merman romance like it's my job, I’ve been keeping a close eye on new releases. The standout this season is definitely 'A Tide of Crimson Hearts' by Lillian Sable, which dropped last month. It’s a lush, atmospheric tale about a marine biologist who discovers a wounded merman off the coast of Maine, and their bond blossoms into something forbidden and achingly beautiful. The world-building is immersive, blending oceanic mythology with steamy, slow-burn romance. Another fresh pick is 'Salt and Silver' by R.M. Virtues, a darker, grittier take where a pirate queen bargains with a merciless merman king—think enemies-to-lovers with teeth. For lighter fare, 'The Merman’s Kiss' by Tamsin Ley is a quirky small-town romance with humor and heart. If you’re into paranormal twists, 'Deeply, Desperately' by J. Leigh slingshots mermen into a vampire-dominated underworld. Each book brings something unique to the subgenre, from lyrical prose to pulse-pounding action.
